Steel Duo

Got this straight from the Ascaso factory in Barcelona to Iceland, in a custom colour. Upgraded from a Steel Duo v2. We loved the Steel Duo and it served us well for 2 years, but this is a different beast entirely. The steam power is ridiculous, and the constant pressure from the rotary pump, with n

I've had a couple of ascaso machines, currently own the dream oud, but had the steel duo. Only complaint I've ever had was temperature calibration not being done from the factory. Never experienced any other issue and always recommend ascaso.

Ascaso Steel Duo all the way, it's a more capable machine and consumes significantly less energy. The v2 offers solid steaming power, not as powerfull as a dedicated boiler, but more than capable of steaming silky milky. Regarding QC, Lelit has it's issues, certainly after the acquisition by Brevill

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

Try searching by stainless / stainless steel. Examples from r/ascaso: 1, 2, 3 Be wary of lots of cleaning, the white and black versions are way less delicate.

Ouch. This is the absolute biggest reason preventing me from upgrading my 2 "dumb" machines. My Flair 58 is just a heater, and my Ascaso Steel Duo doesn't use a chip, just a little PID controller. I thought about getting a Sanremo YOU or a Decent, but yeah... those touch screens are not a longevity

I recently bought an Ascaso Steel Duo second-hand and I am happy. Since it was an older model, I got the steam upgrade (so that I have the turning wheel now) and from my first few weeks with the machine I have to say I'm really impressed with the build quality. If you can, I'd recommend you check it

4 months into my Ascaso Steel Duo PID Plus ownership here. Here are my pros and cons: Pros Fast heat up. 5 mins with the portafilter in the group head and a quick flush = ready for business Can pull a shot and steam at the same time Fantastic back-to-back consistency Engaging u/x with the clicky swi

I came from nearly 12 years with a Breville Barista Express. For what it is and how long it lasted (with some basic repairs) I can't fault it too much, especially after I stopped using the built-in grinder. I still have/use it, but it FEELS like a toy now that I've gotten used to the Move. (I've got

I went with the Ascaso Steel Duo - definitely go with a local dealer, mine came defective (steam was not working) the shop helped me troubleshoot, prime, etc.. no dice (was a little bummed) they had a Duo Plus in stock and I paid a little more for the exchange to upgrade and it works great now ( it’
