Steel Duo Plus

Ascaso Steel Duo all the way, it's a more capable machine and consumes significantly less energy.

Another Ascaso Steel Duo PID owner here, and another glowing review. Been a dream since day one, couldn’t be happier. Makes great coffee, very stable on back to back shots, quality of the machine feels nice and the tank is brilliant for refilling. All that, PLUS a few minutes heat up time? Hard to b

Hard to beat the bang for buck of the BDB, but have a look at the Ascaso Steel Duo or Duo Plus. Fast heat up time, dual heating element and solid build quality. Lelit Elizabeth is another solid option next to the Profitec Move, but like the Move its a dual boiler machine so heat time will be far lon
