The „Ascaso“ P74 is a professional espresso grinder designed for fast, easy work in cafés, bars and anywhere else coffee is made.
74 mm burrs
Hardened-steel flat burrs for a precise, consistent grind.
Turn-and-push knob
Turn it to choose a recipe, press it to grind.
Fast and quiet
Quick doses, quiet operation behind the bar.
Three programmable recipes
Every dose comes out the same, and the high-resolution display shows the time left.
Anti-clump, anti-static
Grounds fall smoothly, free of clumps.
Micrometric adjustment
Fine-tune the grind steplessly.
High-quality materials
A sturdy aluminium body built for busy days.
Hands-free
The illuminated holder keeps the portafilter in place.
430 W motor
Grinds 3.4–4.0 g of coffee per second for espresso, and an automatic fan keeps the motor cool.
The P74 is made for coffee shops and other venues that grind a lot of coffee, day in, day out.
The large flat burrs grind precisely and consistently, so once the grind is dialled in, every shot comes out aromatic, with a good crema.
Matching the grind to the blend, the roast and even the humidity in the air takes a quick turn of the stepless knob on the upper right: clockwise for finer, anticlockwise for coarser.
Every dose comes out freshly ground: with a 10% burr tilt and an almost vertical chute, retention is kept to a minimum.
Up to three recipes give you the same dose whoever is on the bar. Each one appears on the display with its grinding time and an icon — single, double or bottomless — and starts with a press of the knob or of the grind button by the portafilter.
You can check a dose by weight: pause the grind, weigh the coffee in the portafilter and carry on from exactly where you stopped.
In recipe-on-demand mode you control the grind with the portafilter alone: the grinder runs while you hold it against the grind button. Pull it away and grinding pauses; push it back and the grinder picks up from the same point until the recipe is done.
To tweak a recipe, a shortcut on the home screen takes you straight to its grinding time. For any other amount, continuous mode grinds for as long as you hold down the key.
The illuminated holder supports the portafilter under the spout, so both hands stay free and work at the bar flows smoothly. You choose how the light works: always on, on while grinding, or off.
Grinding into a dosing cup or any other container is just as easy: swap the portafilter holder for the supplied cover — each releases with the button just below it.
The spout comes off with a slight twist and the magnetic tray lifts off in one move, so the workstation is quick to tidy.
An aluminium body and high-quality materials make the grinder sturdy and reliable, and an automatic fan keeps the motor cool.
Switching beans or cleaning the burrs is quick: slide in the shut-off gate and lift the hopper off with the beans still inside. A safety interlock checks that the hopper is properly seated before the grinder dispenses.
Compared with the H64, the P74 grinds faster and has larger burrs, a more powerful motor and a hopper five times the size.

For espresso at home, or for a compact grinder with a single-dose kit, choose the „Ascaso“ H64.
One set of burrs grinds 400–600 kg of coffee. The statistics screen shows burr wear as a percentage and the kilograms ground, in total and per recipe. When the burrs are due for replacement, the grinder lets you know.
Clean burrs keep every dose accurate: grinder cleaners such as „Puly Grind Crystals“ clean the burrs and other internal parts thoroughly.
The grinder comes with a 1.5 kg bean hopper fitted with a shut-off gate, a portafilter holder, a cover for grinding into a dosing cup or another container, and a removable magnetic tray.
