The Profitec Jump has a heat exchanger as its primary heating element and a heat-up time ranging from 5 to 15 minutes, while the Rocket Appartamento also features a heat exchanger but takes longer to heat up, with a range of 15 to 30 minutes. The steam boiler capacity for the Jump is 1.6 liters compared to the Appartamento’s 1.8 liters, and the water reservoir capacities are 2.8 liters for the Jump and 2.5 liters for the Appartamento. Both machines feature brass and chrome-plated brass components for durability and heat retention.

Features Comparison

Regarding their features, both machines have auto shutoff, allow concurrent brewing and steaming, and include a steam wand. The Profitec Jump comes with dual PID control but lacks pre-infusion and a shot timer, while the Rocket Appartamento provides pre-infusion capabilities but has no PID control or shot timer. Additionally, the Appartamento features a no-burn wand, enhancing safety during operation, while the Jump has a more standard steam wand. Both machines are equipped with over-pressure valves, ensuring consistent pressure during brewing.
