Rocket Espresso Portafilter

This portafilter is designed for E61 group heads, which are standard on many prosumer espresso machines. As long as your machine uses a standard 58mm E61 group, it should be compatible, but we recommend double-checking your machine's specific group head type before purchasing.

A single-spout portafilter is specifically designed for pulling single shots or brewing directly into narrow cups and glasses. The centered spout prevents the espresso from splashing or missing the cup, which is a common issue when using double-spouted portafilters with smaller vessels.

While it matches the professional look of Rocket machines, the chrome-plated brass serves a functional purpose. Brass provides excellent thermal stability, helping to maintain consistent water temperature during extraction, while the chrome plating makes the portafilter easier to clean and resistant to corrosion.

No, this listing is for the portafilter handle assembly only. You will need to use a compatible 58mm single-shot filter basket, which is typically sold separately or can be transferred from your existing equipment.

To keep the chrome finish looking new, rinse the portafilter with hot water after each use and wipe it dry with a microfiber cloth. Avoid using abrasive scrubbers or harsh chemical cleaners, as these can scratch or dull the chrome plating over time.
