Spectra Descaler is an eco-friendly powder descaler that rapidly and easily removes limescale and calcium build-up from espresso machine water tanks, boilers, and coffee brewers with the easy-to-see colour indicator. It visually indicates whether a descaling cycle has been successful using pH-sensitive dye compounds. Colour indicators highlight the difference between an effective and ineffective descaling solution. A specific blend of pH-sensitive dye compounds will show a range of colours from red to orange, brown and blue. Orange indicates an effective descaling cycle, and blue indicates that another descaling cycle should be undertaken. Spectra is certified by the Organic Materials Review Institute and is free from phosphate and Genetically Modified Organisms. Detergents in Spectra are readily biodegradable, giving the consumers added peace of mind. Spectra Descaler comes in both 600-gram jars and 25-gram sachets of four in a box.

TMR ROASTER ENERGY-EFFICIENT ROASTING TECHNOLOGY

With its external heat generating unit and modular design, the TMR deploys a heat recirculation system eliminating all trace of roasting smoke and volatile compounds. Highly efficient, the TMR is also a sustainable solution emitting less CO2 with just one burner and saving up to 35 per cent on energy consumption compared to traditional roasters, achieving maximum product consistency and roast customisation. Orchestra, the new software applied to TMR is the answer to the need to obtain constant roasting results over time, especially for products such as pods and capsules, regardless of the humidity level of green coffee, the quantity of the batch entering the roaster, and environmental variables. Orchestra enables the operator setting up to 30 roasting set-points, including the temperature to reach and the time interval in which to reach it, as well as drum rotation speed and the flow rate of the heating fluid for each set point.

RANCILIO SPECIALTY RS1 ACHIEVES SCA CERTIFICATION

CAMEO CORE

WMF AUTOCLEAN

Rancilio Specialty RS1 has passed Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) tests and is now an SCA certified espresso machine. The quantitative temperature tests were carried out on several simultaneously operating groups. In a series of dispensing runs at different temperatures (between 90.5°C and 96°C), the RS1 achieved high thermal stability, with an average oscillation of ± 0.6°C, well below the SCA value of 1.1°C required to pass the test. In the temperature control response time test, the RS1 achieved delivery temperature stability within the required time interval (10 minutes), being highly responsive from a thermodynamic perspective. In the quantitative pressure test results, the RS1 espresso machine operated reliably, without pressure fluctuations (≤ 0.4 bar). This included simultaneous dispensing from several groups. Two different baskets were used for the extraction tests. The results met the required standards with an output extraction yield close to 20 per cent.

Wherever coffee machines are used – from cafés and restaurants to office kitchens – they require regular and thorough cleaning. Unfortunately for the staff, this means they have to carry out daily cleaning processes before or after their actual working hours. For this reason, WMF Professional Coffee Machines has developed WMF AutoClean, the industry’s first fully automatic solution for cleaning. Both the coffee system and milk system are cleaned in accordance with HACCP requirements without any external assistance. All of the time-consuming, error-prone cleaning tasks previously performed by the user are eliminated completely and the input required from them is reduced to an absolute minimum. An integrated timer can be used to specify exactly when and at what intervals the AutoClean system should start working – everything else is taken care of by the machine. When the first staff member arrives at work, the machine will already have started up, cleaned itself and be ready to go.

Eversys has developed a machine called the Cameo Core, providing a great solution for those with big ambitions and smaller means. Named “Core” because it is a stripped-down version of the Cameo/Classic, Eversys has merely removed some non-essential parts, reduced the cost, and made it more accessible for those who aspire to own a Cameo but have a restricted budget. The C’2c/Core features a hot water outlet coming directly through the coffee outlet as well as the e’Levelling brewing unit that creates a more even coffee cake extraction. This machine remains powerful enough to produce 175 espressos per hour. There is also the C’2s/Core, equipped with a steam wand to enable the manual frothing of milk and the C’2ms/Core, with the additional benefit of a fully integrated milk frothing system for the preparation of up to 175 cappuccinos per hour.
