SLAYER Steam Single – The most accessible path to genuine Slayer espresso
Plug-and-play. Professional. Unmatched.
Finally, it’s here – the SLAYER that serious home baristas and smaller specialty spots have been waiting for.
SLAYER Steam Single is the first single-group machine in the Steam series and also the most user-friendly ever. Thanks to the integrated 2.5-liter fresh water tank, it’s 100% plug-and-play: no plumbing installation, no fixed water connection. Just fill with water, plug in – and you have full access to SLAYER’s legendary control and quality.
Built in Seattle with the same uncompromising materials and craftsmanship as the larger models, the Steam Single packs all the beloved Steam LP features into a compact footprint just 45.7 cm wide. Perfect for the Danish home kitchen, coffee cart, pop-up café, or behind the counter in a restaurant with a thoughtful coffee program.
Control that lets your single origins shine
The dedicated pre-infusion circuit (programmable up to 10 seconds) provides gentle, even saturation of the puck – essential for highlighting sweetness, clarity, and complexity in light roasts and seasonal blends.
With the 3-position flow actuator, you can change the flow rate in real time while brewing. Pull your perfect manual shot – save it with Record & Playback – and replicate it precisely all day long (up to 2 recipes).

Important info before you order: We primarily offer the SLAYER Steam Single to the Danish market. If you are located outside Denmark, please contact us before ordering. Delivery time varies from 2-10 weeks (as the machine is hand-built in the USA and stock is limited). We offer full installation support – our authorized technicians will guide you through setup, break-in, and water quality (water connection is not required initially thanks to the built-in reservoir, but a plumb-in kit is available as an option if desired).
Casadio Ermes Dual Coffee Grinder – The Hybrid Grinder for Espresso & Filter
One grinder. Two worlds. Designed by the same person who created your SLAYER.
Christopher Flechtner – the designer behind SLAYER’s iconic look – has created the Ermes Dual to fully harness all the potential you get from Steam Single’s pre-infusion, flow profiling, and Record & Playback.
With 75 mm Keber burrs made from 42CrMo4 steel, you get exceptional clarity, sweetness, and consistency in both Slayer-style espresso shots and light filter brews. Seamlessly switch between on-demand and single-dose with one touch – and maintain maximum freshness thanks to extremely low retention (0.1 g for filter, 0.5 g for espresso).
Why Ermes Dual is the obvious choice for Steam Single • Real-time burr adjustment in microns + up to 6 saved recipes • Two hoppers included (550 g + dedicated single-dose) • The same craftsmanship quality and aesthetics as your SLAYER • Fast (up to 3 g/s), quiet, and built for daily use at home or in a small café
A setup that looks fantastic together – and performs even better.
