Astoria AB200 Compact 2-Group Commercial Espresso Machine
Big Performance. Small Footprint. Zero Compromise.
For cafés, restaurants, and mobile coffee bars where counter space is a luxury, the Astoria AB200 Compact is the ultimate solution. This machine proves that you don't need a massive footprint to deliver high-quality, consistent espresso. Engineered with the reliability Astoria is famous for, the AB200 squeezes the power of a 2-group system into a chassis just over 24 inches wide.
Whether you are a bustling bakery needing to add coffee service or a restaurant with limited bar space, the AB200 offers the professional workflow of a larger machine with the convenience of 110V power—making it one of the most versatile machines on the market.
Why Choose the Astoria AB200 Compact?
1. Space-Saving Engineering
Real estate is expensive. The AB200 allows you to maximize your revenue per square foot. By trimming the width without sacrificing the brewing groups, you gain extra room for grinders, point-of-sale systems, or pastries, all while maintaining the ability to brew two espressos simultaneously.
2. Plug-and-Play Power (110V)
Unlike massive commercial units that require expensive electrical overhauls, this unit operates on 110V / 1800W. This makes it incredibly easy to install in standard outlets found in most commercial buildings, pop-up locations, or catering trucks.
3. Advanced Barista Tools
Despite its size, the AB200 is packed with smart features:
-
Volumetric Dosing: Programmable buttons ensure consistency regardless of who is behind the bar.
-
Mixed Hot Water Outlet: Delivers water at the perfect temperature for tea and Americanos, avoiding the harsh sputtering of boiling water.
-
Shot Counters: Keep track of your daily output for inventory management and maintenance scheduling.
4. Optional AutoSteam Technology
Need to speed up workflow or assist newer staff? The AB200 offers an optional AutoSteam feature that automatically textures milk to the perfect consistency and temperature, ensuring velvety microfoam every time with the push of a button.
5. Built for the Grind
Weighing in at over 112 lbs, this is no lightweight appliance. It features a heavy-duty chassis, an adjustable drip tray to accommodate tall to-go cups, and an electronic cup warmer to keep your ceramics at the ideal serving temperature.
Ideal Applications

Essential Installation & Maintenance
Water Filtration is Critical
To protect your machine's warranty and ensure the best tasting coffee, you must filter your water. Scale buildup is the leading cause of equipment failure.
-
Recommendation: We recommend a dedicated BWT Bestmax cartridge system tailored to your local water hardness. This inhibits scale while retaining minerals necessary for flavor.
Warranty & Support
-
Coverage: Includes a 12-Month Manufacturer Parts Warranty.
California Residents: Proposition 65 Warning applies to this product.
