How It Works
With the Rocket Giotto Type V, fill the water tank, let it heat up, and adjust your brew temp using the digital PID controller. Pull shots with the E61 group using the timer for precision. The Ceado Life X allows easy grind adjustment by dial, then grind directly into your portafilter or dosing cup using manual or timed settings. Switch between hopper and single-dose mode effortlessly for full bean variety control.
Maintenance & Best Practices
Backflush the Rocket daily, clean the steam wand after each use, and use filtered water to avoid scale. For the grinder, use GRINDZ or similar grinder cleaner pellets to keep burrs clean and brush down surfaces weekly. Store both on a flat, dry bench and avoid outdoor use. Always unplug before cleaning and never immerse any parts in water.
