Overview

The Steel Uno is full of convenient modern features contained in a sleek and refined body. It allows for the creation of “impulsive espresso” and can quickly shift over to steaming milk, making this the ideal machine for early mornings.

With an entrepreneurial dream, Jesus Ascaso entered the coffee world in 1952, working with parts. 1962 is when he started his own coffee parts company. It was not until 1997 that discussions of Ascaso creating their espresso machine came from Jose Luis Ascaso. In 2000, the Ascaso dream was born and since has only seen improvements and innovations such as the Steel Uno.

Convenient features can be seen throughout the entire machine. From the conservatively sized machine being achieved with carefully chosen parts to the PID and volumetric controls for easily replicated shots, the Ascaso Uno sets itself apart from other similar machines in the single boiler category. Combining these advantageous features with contemporary aesthetics absolutely lets the Dream stand out from the competition.

Ascaso’s thermoblock boiler allows for quick heat-up time and easily shifts between espresso and steam modes. Ideally, this boiler is for someone who desires coffee on the fly or has little time to wait for coffee.
