The Four UNIC Platforms Most Buyers Should Compare First
UNIC covers two distinct needs. Classic, Aura, and Stella Epic are traditional barista-operated machines. Tango XP is a superautomatic platform for operations that need automated consistency and speed.
UNIC Classic
Straightforward two-group commercial platformFor cafés, restaurants, bakeries, and staffed bars that prioritize durability, volumetric dosing, simple operation, and long-term serviceability.
View UNIC Classic details →UNIC Aura
Independent thermal controlFor specialty cafés and serious coffee programs that want multi-boiler precision, stable extraction temperature, and a refined traditional workflow.
View UNIC Aura details →UNIC Stella Epic
Advanced profiles and barista controlFor specialty cafés, boutique hotels, and high-level espresso programs that need programmable extraction profiles, multi-boiler control, and deeper recipe management.
View Stella Epic details →UNIC Tango XP
Solo and Duo configurationsFor hotels, offices, restaurants, airports, campuses, and high-volume foodservice programs that need automated espresso quality without relying on a trained barista.
View Tango XP details → UNIC Classic 1 Group
A smaller traditional path for restaurants, bakeries, wine bars, and lower-volume programs that need a true commercial machine without a full two-group footprint.
UNIC Aura 3 Group
A three-group version of the Aura for higher-volume specialty cafés and staffed bars that need additional simultaneous extraction capacity.
UNIC Tango Solo ST
A single-unit superautomatic for operations that need one-touch speed and consistent output but do not need the maximum throughput of the Duo platform.
UNIC Tango Duo XP
The highest-output Tango configuration for major hotels, airports, corporate campuses, and demanding foodservice environments.
How We Would Choose Your UNIC Machine
The first decision is not simply the model name. It is whether your operation needs traditional barista control or automated consistency, then how much volume, thermal control, and simultaneous output the bar requires.
Choose Classic for straightforward commercial reliability
Classic is the starting point when the operation needs volumetric traditional espresso, durable construction, familiar controls, and a platform that is practical to own and service.
Choose Aura when thermal precision matters more
Aura is the step-up path for programs that want independent boiler control and stronger stability through changing service pace and sustained café demand.
Choose Stella Epic for deeper barista control
Stella Epic adds advanced extraction management and programmable profiles for teams that will use the additional control and justify the investment.
Choose Tango XP when staffing is the real constraint
Tango XP solves a different problem. It automates grinding, brewing, and milk workflow for environments where speed and consistency matter more than manual barista technique.
Don’t Buy a Machine From Someone Who Can’t Fix It
A low online price does not help when the machine is down during service. We sell commercial equipment as a supported program, not a curbside box drop.
We are an authorized commercial equipment dealer with an in-house technician. We help with site planning, utilities, water treatment, setup, and ongoing service, so the recommendation has to work after the sale.
We also roast and supply the coffee. That means we think through the complete program: machine, grinder, water, workflow, drink quality, service access, and beans, not just the equipment transaction.
Equipment, Grinder, Water Filtration, Setup, Service, and Coffee
Buying the machine is only one piece. A reliable espresso setup also needs the right grinder, water filtration, site readiness, installation planning, training, service access, and coffee.
The Machine
Matched to drink volume, menu, staffing, counter space, electrical reality, and budget.
The Grinder
Paired to the machine so extraction, speed, regular espresso, and decaf workflows operate correctly.
Installation Planning
Electrical, plumbing, filtration, site readiness, delivery, and setup details reviewed before the machine arrives.
Service and Coffee
Our technician services what we sell, and our roasting team can support the espresso program when coffee is needed too.
