The Rancilio Rocky is a home coffee bean grinder that uses commercial quality burrs. The machine is available in a doser and doserless version depending on the needs of the end user. The hopper is also made of tinted plastic to prevent light from affecting the freshness of the beans. The Rocky also utilizes the same high-power motor as Rancilio's commercial MD40 grinder.

Find the Right Grind

  1. Grind coffee into the portafilter.
  2. Lock the portafilter into the brew group.
  3. Lift the brew lever all the way up.
    • Aim for 2 to 2.5 oz. in about 25 seconds.
  4. Drink your shot to test.
  5. Repeat until properly motivated to get work done.


The big secret to finding that exact flavor you're after, that big punch-in-the-mouth feel, is dialing in your grind. For a basic rule-of-thumb, a coarser grind makes for a lighter, fluffier coffee, and a finer grind makes for a more intense, flavorful espresso. Check out the video on the right for more info.
