    Thanks I will try and make it there sometime soon! Copper boiler does seem to be the go, it's a shame most of the new machines have moved to SS tho.

    Try La Crema Coffee in St Marys. They are one of our resellers in Adelaide.

    Vivi has a stainless steel chassis,boiler is copper. A copper boiler is probably a better option given Adelaides water

    Cheers

    That is probably because you’re not convict stock.

    Nope. Oz spec is copper 1.8L boiler. Antony (Site sponsor Casa Espresso) will be able to point you in the right direction if he has an Adelaide reseller.

    Yep- fair 'nuf. The Vivi is also copper boiler. Build quality and finish are on point.

    I have looked at it but I don't want to buy a machine without seeing it in person. TBH I would rather a copper boiler which makes me like the Appartamento even more.

    You might also look at the Izzo Vivi via site sponsor Casa Espresso or one of their resellers. Similar footprint but better specs.

    FWIW, I wouldn't get too pent up about a stainless boiler. They require far more care if you are hoping to avoid headaches.

    Rocket Appartamento worth the $ in 2021?

    Looking at upgrading my Lelit PL41 sometime this year to a HX machine. After looking around at all types of machines under $3000 or close to I came to love the look and size of the Rocket Appartamento. It will fit perfectly under my cupboards but when looking at other machines for around the same price I kind of feel like it's missing some features the other machines have like PID, SS boiler.

    So to my question, is the Appartamento still with the price or not?
