A step up from your at-home espresso machine, the Ascaso Steel Duo PID Coffee Machine boasts professional performance and a stunning industrial design body. Built using high-quality aluminium, stainless steel, and brass, this semi-professional equipment can withstand daily operations within an office setting and even small coffee shops.
PID Group Temperature Control
Consistently good coffee may require you to make minute adjustments in your routine. The Ascaso Steel Duo PID group temperature control system allows you to adjust the boiler temperature degree by degree, control the steam, pre-program the pre-infusion time, set the coffee dose timer, and enable the chronometer function and standby mode. Monitor the changes you make on the minimalist digital reader flanked by the sleek steel button controls.
Easy, external adjustments
Complimenting the digital controls of the Ascaso Steel Duo PID are physical toggle switches for power, volumetric dosing, and water and steam control. Removing the machine’s panels to adjust the pressure is also a thing of the past since the overpressure valve can be manipulated from the exterior using a flathead screwdriver.
Built to last
In addition to the tough industrial build of the Steel Duo PID, the systems within are also constructed to pass the test of vigorous daily usage. Its Thermoblock system ensures thermal stability allowing consistent heating and unlimited steaming at reduced power consumption. The stainless steel construction of the circuit also eliminates the risk of water contamination and limescale buildup.
Comfort features
Whether you are using the Steel Duo PID at home or in your coffee shop, you’ll find that certain features make your routine a more pleasant experience. From the multidirectional steam wand with a heat-resistant nozzle to the workspace lighting.
