Roosterben have ordered the Coffee Sensor Kit today and it will be interesting to see how it performs in the Izzo Duetto IV - an already capable machine.
Having started roasting (Hottop 2K+) last year and getting some inspiring results I am now critically reviewing my coffee making process and equipment.
I am hoping that pre-infusion and profiling in general will squeeze a bit more from the bean!

I am pretty sure it is retrofit as part of order/bench test.
The R58 has a ceramic mushroom valve and potentially the Gicluer is slightly different in design from most other Rockets, there have been reports some of the flow profiling kits not working with R58. There are a couple in the wild but only one available in Australia.
There are a few around I have found (but never got around to ordering or fitting one to my Rocket Giotto);
a) ECM kit
b) Lelit kit
c) Profitec kit
d) Coffee Sensor kit

Has anyone on the forum installed a pressure profiling kit on their e61 machine?
I would be interested in feedback on how the kit installation went and the pressure profiling experience

Modifying high end e61 machines for pressure priofiling
The Whole Latte Love site recently did a review on new generation Rocket e61 machines that are being fitted out with a new paddle arrangement for profiling.
The paddle valve is fitted on top of the group head and a secondary pressure gauge also installed on the head to monitor pressure changes. This allows manual pre and post infusion without buying a GS3 or equivalent! This is good news.
The new R58 was demonstrated using the new profiling feature and it appears the upgrade could be potentially fitted to all e61 machines.
But I notice the Australian version of the new R58 doesn’t seem to have the mod so could this be a special build for the US market.
I would like to explore if I can fit the above to m Izzo Duetto iv.
Can we buy a kit in Australia?Last edited by warmtone; 4 June 2021, 12:58 PM.Tags: None
