Ascaco i-Steel i-2 Conical burr Espresso Coffee Grinder – No Dose
|
Simple and consistent, The Ascaco I-2 Coffee Grinder features a conical primary grinder burr, one of the only professional grade coffee grinders for both home and office use that features such a system. The I-2 uses a 38mm conical grinding wheel with the Micrometric Regulation System (also known as stepless adjustment) to control the quality and consistency of the grinds. This improved system allows for unmatched, precise adjustments to the grind setting, which is crucial for creating the best espresso.

Crew Review
Pros
- Stepless Control - Revel in precise control over the consistency of your grind with Ascaso's Micrometric Regulation System (MRS)
- The Big Hopper - The i-Steel's shatter-resistant bean hopper is larger than average, holding 1.3 lbs of beans
|
Cons
- No Reference Marks - Because there is no end to the turns on Ascaso's stepless knob, there are no markers to help you recall your grind settings from one to another
- Unique Look - While the i-Steel looks great alongside a matching Ascaso espresso machine, its design may not play well with other brands

How it Works
Fill the bean hopper with beans, dial the adjustment knob to the appropriate setting and turn on the grinder.

- Remove and hand wash bean hopper and lid with warm soap and water as needed

Features & Accessories
With nothing but your own grinder-specific desires stopping you, the i-Steel I-2 allows complete control over your grind.
Components & Functionality
- Simple Manual Operation: It does not get much easier than this. With one button on the side to control the main power, underneath the coffee dispensing shoot there is a spring-loaded manual power switch
- Easy To Clean: The i-Steel I-2 keeps things simple when it comes to cleaning the machine. Our tests giving this unit a thorough cleaning ran under two minutes. Easy to disassemble parts mean getting every component scrubbed down is easy as pie.
- HUGE Bean Hopper: With a 1.3 lb coffee bean capacity, this hopper is large enough to produce grounds for several full coffee pots or over 60 espresso shots. Topped with a lid to keep the beans fresh, it's alright if you leave them in there for a few days.
- Solid Portaholder: A well constructed Portaholder makes it easy to grind directly into your espresso machine's portafilter.
