Dual Boiler Espresso Machine
A dual boiler espresso machine is engineered with two distinct boilers: one for brewing espresso at the perfect temperature and another for generating steam to froth milk. Unlike single boiler machines that share one boiler for both tasks, dual boilers enable simultaneous brewing and steaming, ensuring consistent temperature and pressure for superior quality espresso beverages.
Shot Timer Built In
The presence of a shot timer on your espresso machine provides numerous benefits, particularly for individuals who enjoy making coffee at home. Consistency and precision are key factors in the extraction of espresso shots. By maintaining consistent timing with the help of a shot timer, you can ensure that each shot is extracted for the same duration, leading to a well-balanced and flavorful cup of coffee.

Touch Screen Controller
Attached to the left of the R58 is a new PID/touchscreen controller. From the touchscreen you can:
- Change Steam Boiler Temperature
- Change Brew Boiler Temperature
- Set the 7-day programmable timer, easily copy settings from day-to-day.
- Set the ECO mode to on/off (this feature is disabled if the 7-day programmable timer is enabled)
- Display shot timer
- Turn your steam boiler off if you’re not using it.
- Turn the machine on or off.
- Displays low water along with the shot timer, the green status light also flashes when the reservoir is removed or has low water.
- Change the water source the machine is pulling from.
Plumbable
Thanks to its dual boiler operation, you can either direct plumb it or use its large 2.5 liter water reservoir. There's no fear of running out of water with the latter, since the Rocket espresso machine is equipped both with low water sensors and an easy to lift top cover, so you can effortlessly check on and fill the water tank.
ECO Functions
The R58 by Rocket features an improved Economy (ECO) Mode. Easily prepare your machine for use by simply lifting a lever. Activating ECO Mode on the Appartamento is effortless, with a convenient on/off button located at the bottom front-right corner, near the brew lever. Once engaged, this mode automatically powers down your machine after 30 minutes of inactivity.
PID Temperature Control
PID, an abbreviation for Proportional-Integral-Derivative, is a feedback loop controller utilized in espresso machines to regulate and maintain the water temperature within the boiler. It means you can regulate the temperature on the machine.
With PID controller espresso machines, you ensure that the water temperature remains constant and ideal for producing high-quality espresso.
Cool Touch No-Burn Steam Wands
With these revolutionary features, you can froth and steam milk without any concerns about getting burned. The cool touch technology ensures that the wand remains at a safe temperature, allowing you to focus on creating the perfect espresso drinks without any worries. Say goodbye to accidental burns and hello to a more enjoyable coffee-making process with our state-of-the-art espresso machine.
Dual Manometers
You'll find dual manometers on espresso machines for monitoring brew and steam pressure. The brew pressure gauge checks the resistance from the coffee grounds in the filter basket when the pump is running to ensure optimal extraction. Meanwhile, the steam pressure gauge on heat exchange or dual boiler machines shows the boiler's steam pressure for safety, usually rated at 2.0 bar for structural integrity.
Superb Recovery Time
Compared to other dual boiler espresso machines at the same price point, the R58 Cinquantotto is up to 33% times more powerful. Collectively, it is almost 11% larger than most in this range. So no matter the workload, you will always be able to steadily pull shots with minimal down time.
The R58 Cinquantotto is an espresso makers dream machine and this stylish well-built classic would be perfect in any aficionados home, a small office or brew station. With the new 7 day timer, your machine will be up and running right when you need it, saving you time!

Water Quality & Machine Protection
Proper water quality is essential for optimal espresso extraction and long-term machine health. Use the guidelines below to ensure your machine performs at its best.
| Parameter | Ideal Range | Why It Matters |
|---|---|---|
| Total Hardness | 50-170 ppm | Prevents scale buildup while maintaining flavor |
| pH Level | 6.5-7.5 | Ensures balanced extraction and protects internal components |
| Chlorine | 0 ppm | Eliminates off-flavors and prevents corrosion |
| TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) | 70-150 ppm | Optimal mineral content for extraction and taste |
| Total Alkalinity | ~7.0 | Stabilizes acidity and extraction |
| Chloride | 0-28 ppm | Prevents corrosion (especially in steel boilers) |
Important Note
Always refer to your machine's manual for specific water quality recommendations and maintenance schedules.
Advisory
Install a water filtration system to maintain consistent water quality and extend the life of your espresso machine.
What This Means
- Water that’s too hard → scale buildup, reduced performance
- Water that’s too soft → flat, dull espresso
- Improper water can damage internal components over time
Machine-Specific Considerations
- These guidelines are safe for most home espresso machines
- Some machines (especially with stainless steel boilers) require stricter limits on chlorides
What We'd Tell You In Store
How to Choose a Home Espresso Machine
The machine that's right for someone who wants great espresso with minimal daily effort is not the same machine that's right for someone who wants to learn pressure profiling. Before you look at specs or prices, two questions do most of the work: how involved do you want to be, and what's your realistic total budget — including the grinder.
Lever and Paddle Espresso Machines: How Much Control Do You Want?
A standard espresso machine makes one decision for you: how the shot is extracted. Paddle machines, spring levers, and direct lever machines give that decision back — in increasing degrees, and with increasing demands on the person holding the lever. This guide covers the full spectrum.
How to Pick Out a Home Grinder
The grinder is the part of your espresso setup that most people buy last and most people wish they'd bought better first. Every shot you pull — its extraction speed, its flavor, its consistency from one morning to the next — is determined first at the grinder. A great machine cannot fix a poor grind.
Setting Up Your Home Espresso Machine Right
The decisions made in the first few days — where the machine lives, what water goes through it, how the workflow is arranged around it — determine a lot about whether espresso becomes a daily ritual you look forward to or a recurring source of frustration.
