Features and Functionality of the Ascaso Dream Espresso Machine - Anthracite - Open Box

| SCG Staff Says... | There's something to be said about simplicity, and the Dream's retrofuturistic 1950s design—complete with analog toggles and a temperature gauge—pairs well with its no-frills operation. |
| How Does it Compare? | The V3's main claim to fame lies with its newly designed portafilter, which can now accept ESE pods without the need for a special adapter! Also, the thermoblock is now lined in stainless steel and the steam wand assembly sports a better sealing connection to help eliminate leaks and scale. |
| Tips and Tricks | Make sure to brace the base of the Dream while tightening in the portafilter. |
