From peak scenario to specification

01

Capacity - a property of the system

The third group increases the available parallelity, but the result is limited by dose preparation, milk, beverage assembly and place of delivery.

  • Draw the path of each barista
  • Check the number of coffee grinders
  • Measure the actual peak hour
02

Steam and stability

Ask for boiler IDs and a simultaneous test. Don't transfer the results of one three-group model to another.

  • Check the steam boiler
  • check the recovery
  • Check the service documentation
03

Installation

Width, weight, power, water and drain should be included in the project before ordering, separately check access to the side and bottom service nodes.

Before the final choice

Are three groups always faster than two?

No. They give the third position for extraction, but the speed of the whole system depends on the people, the coffee grinder, the steam, the assembly and the discharge.

How many baristas do you need?

This is planned by role and peak menu, and the mere presence of three groups does not require the number of employees.

Is it possible to put such a car in a small coffee shop?

Physically it is sometimes possible, but without a confirmed flow, rack width and engineering project, the stock can be expensive and uncomfortable.

Connect the car to a real coffee shop stream

Compare the class, coffee grinder, water and work rack in one scenario.
