STEEL SERIES
The STEEL range goes one step further and transcends the Home use. It is a semi-professional coffee machine for home, offices, and even the Hospitality channel.
DUO – a thermoblock for coffee and an independent thermoblock for steam.
It was designed by the Ascaso Factory engineering team in its UNO and DUO versions and it is offered in a robust industrial bodywork that meets the requirements of the expert user. It is manufactured with the highest quality materials (aluminum, stainless steel, brass), and a minimum use of plastic. The standard version is equipped with a Ø 58mm filter holder and electronic temperature control.
The PID version provides a completely professional performance: externally adjustable OPV and an external PID display for temperature setting, adjustable pre-infusion, stand-by option and much more. A professional machine at Home!
PLUS - joystick steam valve for a more ergonomic steaming experience
Note: now available with the 15-amp plug or 20 amp
Powerful Steam
Steam without boiler
-
Improves energy consumption. Reduced from 35% to 70%, according to EN60661 test.
-
Waiting time for activation 2 minutes. The steam unit is ready within 2 minutes after switching on. Once switched on, steam generation is instantaneous. A traditional boiler takes between 15 and 25 minutes from start-up.
-
Instantaneous regeneration time. Constant steam. A traditional boiler takes several minutes to recover if it has previously made steam, proportionally to its use. With Ascaso's system, the waiting time is zero. Throughout the process it does not lose steam, it is constant for 3 minutes (maximum established for system safety) and then recovers instantly.
- Clean water in every steam service (no water constantly overheated).
- 2 year general labour + parts from purchase date
- 5 year Ascaso warranty on thermoblock + groups
