It was in 1962 that Ascaso joined the brewed coffee experiment. A new version of the Dream machine, the Ascaso Versatile machine is compatible with 44mm ESE pods as well as ground coffee. Thanks to the mobile and versatile filter holder, it is possible to prepare coffee using 5 different methods: 1 ground coffee, 2 ground coffee, 1 pressurized ground coffee, 2 pressurized ground coffee and 1 coffee per ESE 44mm pod. Thanks to an aluminum and stainless steel thermoblock, the water is constantly renewed and of high quality. Its water circuit is made of stainless steel to reduce the lime content.
