Hey Guys!

Does anyone know anything about the new R58 shown at Host Milano? Any specs or details on the new computer?

Apparently it's a USB instead of a vga adaptor. And it's a touchscreen unit.

It also has a shot timer like the chronomatic.

I'd love to hear more about it! Love or hate Rocket, anyone improving the community and industry is a good thing!

Just got word that it will be releasing in March-April of this year.

Good to know.

Any update on this?

Will the same update go for the r60v? I don't find any news on the coming update?

Shared on their IG today.

I'm a bit disappointed it doesn't include a variable pressure valve like the Lelit Bianca. I love the rocket machines, but it feels so wrong paying more for a machine without this feature. Looks good though.
Seems like they have changed the name from R58 to R Cinquantotto

Anything else?

No additional information per se... slightly different angle...getting a better look at the new legs. Web page says coming mid July - Taking pre orders.

Krups, then Silvia, then Livia 90, then a Techno! Does it ever end? [sigh]
