Rok coffee press is blisteringly good: had it for over 8 years I guess and experimented with coffees and methods. New RG plunger has been a much easier press, but produced weaker, cooler coffee and no... See more

The ROK is a good manual coffee maker that will reward you with a fine double shot once you figure out the grind and tamping pressure. It's not the quickest way to make a coffee, but not that complica... See more

Bamboo grind catchers are an improvement.
I have a Rok grinder it cam with the aluminium grinds catcher now I have two of the bamboo ones. They are much better (taller so less mess when you get staticky beans). Arrived really quickly - love my grinder.
Ordered ROK Espresso GS & Grinder GS
Ordered ROK Espresso GS & Grinder GS, the shipment was in time and delivered in tact. Both are fulfilling my expectations with only slight downsides.
I would expected to have the Espresso GS shipped with more detailed instructions.
I found the the gap control of the Grinder GS slightly ambiguous and suddenly found the lower part turning without notches touching, maybe just the center screw was loosened. Since then it has worked fine with over 20 grindings.
The espresso I manage to get with a short use has turned to be quite good and I am happy I got these machines.
Brilliant invention
Brilliant invention. Great tasting coffee. Light, no power required, perfect for our boat.
Yes! ROK is great
I love this ROK coffee maker and the company's customer service. I recommend this company and its products without a blink of an eye.
I'm writing from Hungary
I'm writing from Hungary. I received the package on time. The postage cost was not significant either. I love the neked portafilter. Unfortunately, after Brexit, I don’t really know how I’m going to order from England. Recommended
After 10 years my old Presso could no…
After 10 years my old Presso could no longer do the job. It had always made excellent coffee. The new GC Conversion Kit has worked brilliantly and transformed the old machine.
Oh Canada..
Oh Canada... I am a high use owner of the 1st generation ROK from when it was called the Presso. Recently I was having problems Patrick from ROK responded to my international emails and walked me through troubleshooting. When a problem was finally discerned, knowing that the CDN distributor was not going to be able to resolve my issue quickly Patrick took care of me. People, this company cares about your experience no matter where you live and they stand behind their product! I didn't even know this kind of business integrity even existed anymore. What a breath of fresh coffee! ROK On!
Some people may have just sent it back
Ok, so the upgrade kit arrived in good time.
Fitting it to my original Presso unit proved to be very difficult due to various parts of the main chamber being badly machined.I had to scrape away quite a lot of excess material left over from the machining process to get it to fit properly. Also the O ring for the plunger was very difficult to seat properly, I had to gently prod a lip of it into position and eventually it worked.
Whilst it now makes acceptable esspreso suitable for an Americano coffee I definitely cannot get any Crema at all.
Definitely not what I had expected.
The machines arrived promptly
The machines arrived promptly, expertly packaged. I had a small issue with the grinder and sent an email to the help desk (very stiff adjustment to the grind). They sorted the issue out within half an hour. After 6 days, I have finally worked out how to get crema with the machine, though all the coffee has been very drinkable. Overall, happy with the purchase
Excellent coffee "machine"
Excellent coffee "machine". Love the support, when something needs to be replaced after years. I'll keep in mind the grinder - so far I use an electric one but …
Quick delivery of parts for my coffee…
Quick delivery of parts for my coffee machine from stock, as with previous orders.
EspressoGC needs Pressure gauge.
After much research & due diligence, I’ll be getting the ROK espresso GC and Grinder this week.
One thing I would like to add is a pressure gauge.
This would greatly enhance the experience.
For this reason I nearly chose a Flair Espresso maker.
Very stylish and equally able. But decided against it eventually due to the density of metal in the brew chamber which would require more pre-heating.
Can you please put your Top Brains 🧠🧠🧠 on it.
Thank you🌀
Upgraded an older Presso to the new GC…
Upgraded an older Presso to the new GC and it works unbelievably well. Use my ROK every day and love the espresso it makes
Quick deliveriy
Excellent Customer Service
I recently purchased a ROK espresso machine that arrived with a damaged plunger. The team at ROK were more than happy to send me out a replacement part free of charge!
Great service and a great tool!
Design, Upgrade and Exemplary Business Practices
First I want to express how delighted I am that you featured an upgrade to the original ROK Espresso Press and it did not require the purchase of new machine. Thank you for your design and forward thinking. We use less materials overall and we still maintain the enjoyment of pulling an espresso. Secondly, my experience of ordering what was necessary for my upgrade, plus some additional accessories, was expeditious and "on point".
