The Presso SmartShot is an eco-friendly, manually operated espresso machine designed for home use. Using any coffee grounds and hot water, users simply apply the necessary pressure to create great espresso. Building on 20 years of manual coffee-making expertise, the Presso SmartShot eliminates the need for expert grinding, tamping, and pressure management. Achieving a perfect manual espresso is as easy as pressing a button with significantly less waste.

The Presso SmartShot enables anyone to make a great espresso shot without barista skills, using a compact manual machine that doesn’t require dedicated counter space or mains power. Engineered for ease of use and maintenance, the SmartShot is built to last with a mechanical and intuitive design that simplifies disassembly, cleaning, and part replacement. ROK’s innovative design philosophy ensures coffee lovers of all ages and strengths can enjoy superior, well-extracted coffee while minimizing waste and maintaining quality.

The Presso SmartShot’s design is driven by its function. The cast aluminium lever arms multiply moderate human force, applying it to the high-pressure brew chamber. Flowing forms connect the brew chamber to a cup platform, with the body and plunger made from a glass-filled polymer. The product manages the complex pressure needed for a true espresso shot through its SmartShot system.

This system multiplies the user’s energy, stores it in two springs, and then slowly releases hot pressurized water into the coffee under the control of the SmartShot basket, ensuring perfect balance. This unique mechanical lever-armed coffee machine challenges the capsule coffee market, freeing users to choose any coffee, from supermarket brands to farmers’ market selections.

The SmartShot expands the market by making espresso accessible to a wider audience. Its inviting design inspires creative uses, such as making desserts and cocktails, enhancing social gatherings.
Environmentally, the SmartShot revolutionizes coffee making by eliminating the need for energy-intensive pod-based machines.

By empowering users to manually control their brew, it reduces energy consumption and waste. Used coffee grounds can then be returned to the earth, requiring no processing. Its exposed mechanical design simplifies recycling, and its well-engineered construction and easy access to replacement parts make the Presso SmartShot a product built to last.
