For operators looking for a state-of-the-art espresso machine that combines power, precision, and performance, look no further than the UNIC Stella Epic. This innovative machine will be showcased at the upcoming Specialty Coffee Expo, where guests can see how it delivers exceptional espressos every time.

Here are some of the key features that make the Stella Epic stand out from the crowd:

Integrated temperature stability

The Stella Epic ensures consistent and high-quality extractions by dispensing shots directly from the boiler to the cup, without losing heat along the way. Unlike other machines that have separate group systems, the Stella Epic maintains a stable temperature throughout the brewing process.

Pulse Profiling

This unique feature provides maximum control over the extraction cycle, letting baristas fine-tune the turbulence and time of each interval. This allows operators to explore the subtle nuances of different coffees and craft espressos that highlight their best attributes.

Thermalink Power

This exclusive feature uses larger heating elements for the steam and boilers, allowing the machine to heat faster and adjust the power according to the demand. This feature saves energy and avoids exceeding a 30Amp rating.

Easylock Brew Group and Steamglide lever

The Easylock Brew Group uses a movable piston assembly that drops down to seal the group when activated, reducing pressure and wear on the machine. The Steamglide lever simplifies the lever action to a smooth slide, making it easy and reducing operator fatique.

The UNIC Stella Epic is more than just an espresso machine. It is a masterpiece of engineering and craftsmanship that will elevate coffee experiences to a new level. Don’t miss this opportunity to see it in action at the UNIC Booth #2027 during Specialty Coffee Expo in Chicago April 12-14, 2024.

Ideally located at the entrance to Hall 24, the UNIC stand attracted numerous partners, visitors and global players in the coffee industry, who came from all over the world to enjoy an unparalleled coffee experience, from October 13 to 17. In a warm and elegant space, UNIC proudly displayed its new visual identity of a historic brand in the sector, whose technological expertise is entirely dedicated to the perpetual quest for the best quality coffee extraction.

This is precisely what the brand new TANGO XP super automatic range brilliantly demonstrated with exceptional brewing ratio, at the official launch of its 3 models Duo, Solo and Compact at HOST 2023. The legendary patented TANGO brewing unit confirmed its efficiency and ability to reproduce the expert gestures of a barista, guaranteeing unrivalled coffee extraction.

All the technologies patented by UNIC were highlighted in an area dedicated to the technical design of the TANGO XP. The most daring visitors took part in a timed dismantling of the machine, an opportunity to better understand how access to the main sub-assemblies has been carefully thought out to facilitate technical interventions. This “live” challenge created a real buzz around the TANGO XP, which was fully revealed on this occasion.

As for the traditional machines, the future CLASSIC unveiled its new look to coffee professionals, who expressed their eagerness to see it installed on their counters from the middle of 2024!

The entire UNIC team extends its warmest thanks to all those who came to meet us during the five days of the show. We look forward to hearing from you! Don’t hesitate to share your testimonials with us, or to ask us about your needs. Our experts are here to advise you!
