Nuova Simonelli Musica vs Rocket Appartamento - Which Espresso Machine is Better?

[@Chuweisin85]

Excellent video. Clear, easy to understand and well presented.

[@majestycoffee]

Glad it was helpful!

[@SupaflyKanaka]

Thanks for this review, I ended up going with the musica 🤙🏽

[@majestycoffee]

Excellent choice! Happy brewing to you.

[@justmehereUK]

just bought the musica, found it fully serviced on ebay for $600 by a coffee repair shop....what a steal .

[@InFutureToday]

Thanks for your video

[@timothyj1706]

Is there a way to add a pressure gauge on the musica though ? I believe the Oscar 2 has more than 9 bars of pressure, but how is the pressure on the musica ?

[@Narezaath]

If NS added a timer on Musica it would be quite a beast of a machine from start to finish.

[@majestycoffee]

Agreed! Though you can add one on yourself which you may already know.

[@rotojo2]

@@majestycoffee how? :)

[@lisafeeney5495]

How many shots can Musica handle per hour? Looking for use with catering events 200 or less people, small to medium volume cafe.

[@guan5849]

Very good video.

[@majestycoffee]

Thank you very much!

[@brittanybutler2211]

Which is best for a coffee truck?

[@majestycoffee]

Our rec would be the Musica, easier to work with during rushes and has the versatility of being able to be plumbed-in to a larger water jug. Thanks for the question!

[@tpz5900]

I would say the biggest difference between these 2 is the price..

[@Dralbastaki]

i found both of them for sale, same price, which one should I go for?

[@majestycoffee]

A solid choice is the Musica if you’re still unsure! Which did you end up going with?

[@Beati3]

I'm not sure where people are getting the idea the Appartamento has pre-infusion, but it doesn't. This isn't the only video that says this, but having owned an Appartamento for three months I can tell you, it's not the case. Do you mean the delay between lever up and the first drip?

[@majestycoffee]

There’s a point between off and fully on before the pump activates where a small amount of water is released. It’s not the same as a preinfusion you’d get from a plumbed-in/rotary pump machine but it provides a slight delay in first introduction to water and ramping up to full pressure. That being said, there are also different versions of the Appartamento on the market so perhaps yours doesn’t have this. The easiest way to test it is try to find that halfway point with your portafilter removed.

I would choose for the Musica. The design of the Rocket Appartamento is ugly.

[@LLSicilia]

Musica looks like an old jukebox someone's left on the sidewalk for scrap😂

[@evakeizers9670]

@@LLSicilia Compared to the Musica the Rocket looks like orginating from the Stone Age.

[@LLSicilia]

@@evakeizers9670 and with that I'd confidently say people only buy the Musica when they're stoned.. go easy on the magic mushroom double shots
