CoffeeKid - Rockys and Vacuums (#)

  „With the Starbucks Barista grinder on the fritz and me waiting for the replacement to come in on a warranty fix, (the motor shouldn't have seized up, according to Starbucks), I ordered a Rancilio Rocky grinder. It arrived a week later, and I finally put Miss Silvia and Mr. Rocky together.“

CoffeeKid - The Rancilio Pages

  „Note, I no longer own a Rancilio Silvia espresso machine or a Rancilio Rocky grinder - I moved on to more commercial grade machines (see why here ). If you have questions about the Silvia or Rocky I will be happy to answer them, but please, first read through this section - the answers you seek are most likely in here already!“

CoffeeGeek - Mazzer Mini - Comparisons

  „(boy, am I cruel or what). Actually, we picked several very capable grinders, including the Rossi RR45 commercial burr grinder ($500), the Innova flat burr doser grinder (around $250), the Rancilio Rocky flat burr grinder (around $230), and the venerable Solis Maestro grinder. Not all grinders were tested at the same time. I enlisted the aid of over a dozen people in several different sessions to help me with these various stages of evaluation.“

CoffeeKid - A Closeup Look at Ground Coffee!

  „Why is this important and why am I even bothering to be this anally retentive about something 99.9% of the coffee drinking public doesn't even care about? Because this image shows exactly why a Rocky grinder is worth its' $200 cost, or a Mini Mazzer is worth $375. It also shows why you get what you pay for when you buy a $15 weed whacker grinder and call it good - it isn't.“
