Equipment notes

The Rocky is a doser electric grinder from Rancilio, founded in 1927 in Parabiago, Italy by Roberto Rancilio. Rancilio is a long-standing Italian maker of espresso machines and grinders, and the Rocky has been a steady favorite for home and small commercial use. It uses a 50mm flat steel burr, pursuing the narrow particle distribution and defined flavor separation typical of flats. A stepped adjustment collar sets grind size, making a chosen setting easy to repeat, and the doser meters and holds ground coffee for release. It is built in Italy and known for a sturdy construction. It suits home and small-cafe users who prefer a classic Italian espresso workflow with a doser, and those wanting a durable, low-maintenance grinder.
