Sleek design and excellent espresso
Don’t be fooled by the sleek design of the Ascaso Dream Versatile Polished Aluminum Espresso Maker. With a classic retro look on the outside and the best that modern technology has to offer on the inside, this espresso maker looks great in any kitchen and brews excellent espresso, lattes, cappuccino and other coffee drinks.
Versatility: Use ground coffee or espresso pods
One important feature of this espresso maker is its versatility. You can use either ground coffee or easy-to-use single serving espresso pods.
Espresso maker with easy to use controls
A series of easy to use switches and you’re on your way to quality espresso drinks. Flip on the center power switch to begin heating up the boiler. You can also control the steam function and coffee brew control. Indicator lights let you know when the machine is ready to brew espresso and steam milk.
Easily froth milk for latte and cappuccino
With the easy to use frothing wand you can froth milk for a perfect latte or cappuccino. Mounted on a swivel joint, the stainless steel steam wand conveniently swings aside and clean up is a snap.
Chrome plated brass grouphead ensures quality espresso
The grouphead (the component that accepts the coffee holder) for this espresso maker is made of chrome plated brass. Designed after Ascaso's commercial espresso machines, the Dream group head evenly distributes heat and reduces “hotspots” for more temperature consistent espresso. It has also been designed to evenly distribute water across the coffee grounds for a better extraction.
Model #: DR.118-KIT
Simple to Use Controls
Flip on the center power switch to begin heating up the boiler. Two more
professional grade rocker switches now let you control the steam function (far
left) and the coffee brew control (far right). A series of indicator lights
inform you when the machine is powered up, and when it is at the proper
temperature for either brewing espresso or steaming milk.
Pressure Gauge
The front mounted pressure gauge monitors the brewing pressure while making
espresso to help insure a proper "espresso extraction."
Frothing Tip for Perfect Foam
Like magic, the wand will make perfect foam. In an instant, the steam wand
converts the milk in your 12 or 20 oz. frothing pitcher to lovely foam for
lattes and cappuccinos. Mounted on a swivel joint, the stainless steel steam
wand conveniently swings aside and clean up is a snap.
Quality Brewing Group
The grouphead (the component that accepts the coffee holder) is made of
chrome plated brass. Designed after Ascaso's commercial espresso machines, the
Dream group head evenly distributes heat and reduces “hotspots” for more
temperature consistent espresso. It has also been designed to evenly distribute
water across the coffee grounds for a better extraction.
Heavy Duty Coffee Holders and Filter Baskets
Keeping with the tradition of using only commercial grade components, the Dream
uses heavy-duty chrome plated brass coffee holders, which feature a rugged
plastic handle. There is a coffee holder for ground coffee and one for espresso
pods. Single shot and double shot 57 mm diameter stainless steel filter baskets
are also included. The larger size baskets allow you to use more ground coffee
per serving for stronger espresso or cups of coffee.
48 oz. Water Tank
The removable water reservoir, equipped with a water level indicator, can be
filled while operating or taken out and filled at the faucet.
16 BAR Water Pump
The secret to a great espresso is a water pump that has the power to force
water through the coffee grounds to extract the full flavor from the coffee. No
worries here, you have more than enough pressure to extract the best of what
your coffee has to offer.
Drip and Cup Tray, Plus Cup Heater
The Dream has a polished stainless steel drip pan and chrome plated steel cup
try, both easy to remove and clean. A unique scratch resistant cup-warming
surface on the top of the machine lets you keep your espresso cups warm so your
freshly brewed espresso does not cool too quickly once it hits the cup.
Brass Boiler
Made of heat distributing brass, this boiler can get up to temperature quickly
and stay there, with a fast recycling time. Two thermostats control the
temperature for espresso and for steam, and a third that specifically monitors
the boiler to protect it from overheating if the machine is left unattended for
long periods.
Construction with Longevity In Mind
The Dream is constructed of corrosion resistant aluminum for extra long
life. The aluminum is then finished in a chip resistant enamel paint. Unlike
most espresso machines in this class that are made of steel, the Dream will not
rust thanks to the aluminum body. All of components that make up the
construction are designed for long life and low maintenance.
Installation and Accessories
The Dream requires no special plumbing or electrical outlets. Just plug it in
and it’s ready to operate. With purchase, the Dream comes with two 57 mm
diameter filter baskets, one for single shot and the other for a double shot,
espresso pod holder, coffee tamper, measuring spoon, quick start guide,
instruction manual, and sample espresso pods.
