*FREE GRINDER OFFER ONLY AVAILABLE WHILE FREE GRINDERS LAST

With Saint Nick’s visit right around the corner, L’affare is here to help you with the ultimate at-home coffee set-up.
Buy any Rocket Espresso Milano machine between now and the end of the year and get a Baratza Sette 270 grinder thrown in for free!
The only Authorised Rocket Espresso Importer in New Zealand, L’affare has been bringing these beautiful Italian-made espresso machines into the country since 2007.
Rocket Espresso produces equipment in the tradition of ‘Fatto a Mano’ (made by hand). A small team of craftsmen work with meticulous care and attention to detail to ensure Rocket Espresso machines deliver a consistently great cup of coffee, time after time.
Paired together, a Rocket Espresso machine and Baratza Sette 270 means you are able to freshly grind your fresh roasted coffee beans ready for your morning cup of espresso.
The Baratza Sette was designed and perfected in Liechtenstein over a period of 8 years, with this technology setting a new standard in simplicity, efficiency, and durability. This new mechanism has a rotating outer burr and fixed inner burr, which doubles the efficiency of similarly sized grinders. Coffee passes straight through the grinder, vertically, and drops directly into your grounds bin or portafilter.
The Sette has a macro and micro adjustment for grind size, as well as 3 programmable settings for dosing.
Play on the machines in-store at one of Laffare’s cafes or Roastery, or visit L’affare’s eStore to see the full range.

In Dream Escape, we journey from Japan and Morocco to Italy, India and beyond, sharing recipes inspired by travel, heritage and comfort. We celebrate the champions of the Outstanding Food Producer Awards, explore the stories and recipes of chefs shaped by their cultural roots, and warm up with everything from West African soups and slow-braised lamb to porchetta, butter chicken and beef noodle soup. Alongside destination menus, Scandinavian sweets and cosy pub classics, Chrisanne Terblanche shares her favourite street-side dining spots in Bangkok, while Yvonne Lorkin explores red wine varietals. This issue, we invite you to slow down, turn the pages and escape through food.
