Ascaso Dream UP V3: Elegance Meets Functionality

Overview

Ascaso has elevated the already impressive Dream UP V3 machine to new heights of sophistication by crafting the portafilter handle and steam knob from Pyrenean boxwood. This artful, chemical-free addition complements the machine’s signature retro look while offering durability you can feel. The Ascaso Dream UP V3 Espresso Machine is the perfect espresso machine for you.

Features

Aluminum Body

Unlike steel machines with painted enamel, the Ascaso Dream UP’s aluminum body eliminates the risk of rusting, ensuring long-lasting performance. However, be cautious with distilled or purified water, as it can ruin the hand-buffed and polished finish, which lends each base its unique character.

Thermoblock Technology

The aluminum thermoblock ensures rapid warm-up times and excellent temperature stability, while its stainless steel interior pipe prevents limescale buildup from magnesium and calcium, a common issue in espresso machines. This innovative design minimizes maintenance and extends the machine’s lifespan.

3-way Solenoid Valve

This feature allows you to remove the portafilter immediately after brewing, transforming your spent grounds into a neat puck instead of a watery mess.

Quality Brewing Group

The chrome-plated brass grouphead evenly distributes heat and water across the coffee grounds, reducing hotspots and ensuring consistent extraction for superior espresso flavor.

Adjustable Over Pressure Valve

Customize your coffee’s flavor profile to perfection by adjusting the over pressure valve, unlocking endless possibilities for your brewing experience.

1.3 L Water Reservoir

A microprocessor pulsates the pump, continuously filling the thermoblock with water from the reservoir until it runs near empty, ensuring uninterrupted steam production.

Enhanced Steam Valve Design

The V3 models feature upgraded compression steam valves with rubber gaskets, reducing the risk of limescale buildup seen in previous models for improved longevity.

Panarello Steam Tip

Frothing milk has never been easier! The included panarello steam tip will have you creating luxurious lattes and cappuccinos in no time, while an optional microfoam tip offers greater control for those seeking more precision.

Versatility between Brewing Methods

No conversion kits are needed! As of April 2014, Ascaso has combined ground coffee and E.S.E pod brewing into one seamless system. Simply switch out the filter basket to brew with freshly ground coffee or E.S.E pods, with four different baskets provided.

• Dual-spout portafilter
