| Rocket Cellini Premium II Semi-Commercial
Espresso Machine
Overview:
This version has the following improvements over the 1st version
of this machine:
- Built in every way to replicate the commercial espresso machine
experience, utilizing the very best in commercial espresso machine
technology.
- Features such as cool touch steam and hot water wands enhance
the experience.
- The boiler has been nickel plated, and has a solid, lead free
brass end plate to aid thermal stability and heat retention.
- Boiler capacity of 1.8 liters has been matched to the thermo
siphon system to enhance the balance of the espresso machine
and the ability to texture perfect milk.
- The 1.8 liter boiler ensures quick heat up time to optimize
perfect extraction temperature of 92 degrees, now controlled
by a full commercial grade, SIRI pressure stat.
- This espresso machine has been designed and manufactured using
the highest grade materials to enable the espresso tradition
to live on in your home.
- All stainless steel bodywork(AISI 304).
- Brewing head Commercial brewing head. Weight id 4.05 kg (9
lbs).
- Dual pre-infusion system: mechanical pre-infusion system
with progressively working piston and static pre-infusion chamber.
This reflects into smooth coffee extraction with optimum aroma,
body and “crema”.
- Superior layout of thermosyphon system resulting in optimum
extraction. Generously dimensioned. 20% higher volume as with
comparable machines on the market.
- Boiler is made of pure copper (Cu. 99.9%) with a lead free,
heavy brass end plate to increase the thermal retention and
the steam power by approximately 40% versus other boiler systems.
Boiler is nickel plated for protection against copper oxidation.
Boiler capacity: 1.8 liter.
- Patented cool-touch technology: anti-burn (only the nozzle
gets hot); easy cleaning as milk doesn't bake on wand; more
efficient steam, as heat is not dissipated around the wand.
Steam nozzle designed for easy milk foaming with fine texture.
- Electronically controlled microprocessor automatic level control
of boiler and fresh water reservoir, with low water level indication
warning system.
- Optimized boiler capacity to thermosyphon system ratio. Results
in fast heat up time with 1200 watt element, made from special
long life material (5 times longer than normal elements).
- Fully certified commercially rated safety valve.
- Fresh Water Capacity 2.9 liter.
- Dimensions (W x D X H) 29.5 x 42.5 x 35 cm. Weight: 23kg
(46.3 lbs)
- Additionally Full size commercial one and two cup filter handles,
and baskets. Full training guide and instructions.
- Buyer Advice: When shopping for the premium version II of
the Giotto or Cellini, make sure the company states Premium
Plus II or Premium II. If they do not state this, then it is
a version 1. In addition, the version II machines have a full
round gauge where the version I has a half moon gauge.
Features:
- Immediate availability of espresso coffee, steam or hot water.
- Small lever on brew group engages micro switch to pump water
through grouphead and coffee in filter handle.
- Pre-infusion possible by engaging lever to point prior to engaging
micro switch.
- Incorporated true Faema E61 grouphead that has water in the
heat exchanger flowing through the grouphead for maximum temperature
stability when extracting espresso.
- Boiler is nickel-plated for added durability.
- Auto water refill circuitry maintains water level in internal
boiler.
- Water reservoir removable for cleaning and refill.
- Sensor in water reservoir to inactivate machine when water
is low.
- All stainless steel finished with a mirror polish.
- Nicely fit boiler gauge shows the pressure in the boiler which
is indirectly related to the temperature.
- Removable drip tray and cover for easy cleaning.
- Long steam wand with two hole steam tip.
- Swivel-based (side to side) steam and hot water arms.
- Medium-sized gauge on front panel to measure boiler pressure.
- Internal pressure regulator monitors pressure in boiler.
- Safety valve in boiler to deplete steam pressure when over
allowable limits.
- Upgraded pressure regulator.
- No-burn multi-directional steam and water wands.
- Larger steam and hot water valves when compared to Giotto Classic.
- Superior portafilter handles with respect to structural integrity.
- Internal filter to capture large particles, liquid level sensor
shuts off machine when there is no water in removable reservoir,
heavy weight bleeder valve to relieve vacuum pressure which builds
when machine cools down, and heavy duty expansion safety relief
valve that opens when the too much pressure is built up in the
boiler.
- Improved internal packaging to avoid machine damage during
shipping!
- Accessories: Measuring spoon, bakelite tamper, single spout
filter holder, 1-cup filter basket, dual spout filter holder,
2-cup filter basket, and instructions.

- Power: 110 Volts, 60 Hertz, 1300 Watts, 15 Amp.
- Boiler Capacity: 1.4 liters.
- Water Reservoir Capacity: 2.9 liters.
- Ulka EX5 Brass Pump 41 watts (please note that there is very
minute difference in noise levels when compared to a 52 watt pump
- there is practically no difference in espresso quality found
in the cup)
- ETL Listed.
- Effective for purchases made on or after July 22, 2007,
the parts and labor warranty is limited to manufacturer's defect
for a period of an twenty-four (24) months from the original purchase
date.
Exclusions to
extended limited warranty.
Notes:
- We only carry the machine in 110 Volt.
- The instruction manual makes reference to black handles in the
reservoir. The Cellini Premium uses a superior low water sensor
that does not need these handles in the reservoir.
- Note: Water Intake Expansion Hose - This hose is held in by
friction in the top left corner of the machine. Its purpose is
to displace excess water pressure in the water reservoir catch
basin every time the water reservoir is removed or placed back
into position. This hose sometimes falls off its holder in shipping.
If it falls off, there will be leakage of water from the machine
when powered off. To resolve, please remove the 4 screws off the
top cover and pull the water reservoir and top cover off. You
will probably find a hose on the floor. This hose needs to be
placed into the slot in the upper left hand corner of the machine.
Once this accomplished, put the cover, the 4 screws, and water
tank in place. The leaking should stop.
- The instructions state year of manufacture is 1997. This is
when the Giotto was first produced. Our inventory turnover occurs
several times a year so that our customers get the latest and
greatest production model.
Replacement Parts:
Grouphead Gasket |
Dispersion Screen |
Service Notes:
Backflushing: This machine should be backflushed minimum once every 50 espresso extractions using Ascaso Detergent (our instructions included with purchase). This is only for cleaning the oils from the grouphead.
Descaling: This really is for internally cleaning of the machine. Recommended once every 3 months using Ascaso Descaler. However, it can be more or less time depending upon the amount of magnesium and calcium is in your water, how often you use the machine, and how much time you leave the machine powered on each day. Join our email list to get monthly reminders on how to descale the different machines we sell.
Gauge Replacement:
Please make sure you disconnect the machine from the power supply
1. Remove the water reservoir cover
2. Remove the water reservoir (pulls straight up)
3. Where the reservoir was sitting you will see 2 screws that need
to be removed
4. The top panel of the machine will now lift off
5. Now remove the right hand side panel by;
A. Loosen off the two bolts on the bottom of the panel under the
