Although 'professional' is in its name, the Ascaso Steel Uno is an extraordinary home-model espresso machine. The main upgrade from the standard Ascaso Steel Uno Professional is the PID - the newest innovation from Ascaso that allows the user to change the temperature of the coffee boiler to allow the water temp most closely perform a superior and more consistent espresso extraction.  For example, one coffee blend can be extracted at 195 d F while tasting very bitter at 201 . Another coffee may be extracted best at 200 d F, but taste very sour at 196 d F. The PID allows the operator to program the temperature of the coffee boiler.

 

This espresso machine is also satisfactory for a small office environment (approximately 5-10 people) where E.S.E. single dose pods need to be used.

  • PID temperature programming allows user to change boiler temperature through the use of the digital display/control panel on the front panel of the machine. The display reads out the current temperature of the coffee boiler.
  • Brushed stainless steel finished body over a black enamel painted steel frame.
  • Water reservoir removable from the right SIDE of the machine
  • Brass boiler capacity: ~325cc.
  • Brass boiler is located directly over the brass grouphead for superior temperature stability compared to boilers that are offset from the grouphead.
  • Brass filter handle with plastic grip.
  • Slide out drip tray made of plastic for easy cleaning (please note drip tray cover is part of machine). Front portion of pull out drip tray is in brushed stainless steel.
  • Three selection switches: power on/off, espresso extracting, and coffee/steam mode.
  • Vent in top rear of machine allow heat near water reservoir to escape.
  • Blue lights indicate power and heating (lights from left to right).
  • Three-way solenoid valve allows the immediate removal of the filter handle when the espresso extraction is completed. The three way valve also allows the user to backflush the grouphead.
  • Swivel based steam wand allows easy rotation of steam wand over steaming pitcher (recommended 20 oz or less) on counter or placement over drip tray.
  • Frothing aid attachment makes it easy to froth milk for cappuccinos. It is not recommended to remove this attachment to steam milk as the wand will be too short.
  • Passive cup warmer on top with guardrail.

REVIEWS & COMMENTS

  • PID

    This is one of the few espresso machine that has PID installed in factory. PID is very important in giving consistent brewing temperature as not to burn your coffee. The default thermostats that are found in other machines fluctuate too much and make your brewing temperature off by a big margin.

    The Ascaso Steel Uno Professional Espresso Machine is a nice product for home espresso that will give you precise control of the temperature of the water in the boiler with a PID controller built in - great for making drinks for the household.
