The additional steam wand is what needed sometimes. I‘ve worked in a space where we had a 3 group Strada and during winter we brought on a single group speedster to have 3 baristas steaming drinks. On barista cranking out shots to the two people on wands, and the guy cranking out shots can steam when possible too.
Excellent presentation as always. I imagine power consumption of a 3-group machine vice a 2-group also contributes to higher operating cost. Perhaps significant kilowatt-hours in a month. The whole presentation was very interesting -- thanks for that! You hit on a lot of vital issues.
Thank you for the comparison. Though I still sometimes puzzle cafe uses even two groups. A dual boiler machine can pull >150 shots a day. Unless they'd like to introduce other coffee. How many cups should two groups make every day to roughly get break even? Thanks again, I learn quite a lot watching Artisti's videos
Imagine being trained by Jimmy. Train more young ones to increase our shortage of baristas! Haha If a Michelin Star Barista was a thing Jimmy would hold that title, hands down. Love your work dude!
Thank you for this very insightful video! I'm starting my own coffee shop, and this video really helped me a lot in deciding what to look out for and what to buy! 👌🏻 Thanx!!
I’m retired now but my Linea Mini does me perfect at home, lol great information for someone starting a new venture as a coffee shop. Hope your all getting over the Covid. Kind regards from Scotland 🏴 Johnny
Amazing machine for home 👌🏼 Trying to be helpful for new cafes, there’s a lot to learn. Slightly getting back to normal with covid here in Australia 🇦🇺 Great to have you watching from Scotland! Cheers, Jimmy
Hello, could you quickly share your thoughts on Sanremo F18 multiboiler vs La Marzocco Linea PB X? The question covers not only quality of coffee that comes out but also built and reliability of these machines.
Both great machine. We sell both brands. The LM like a Toyota, holds its value longer and will look like new in 10 year with a little bit of a love. Cheers luke
I still prefer using one group coffee machine that can make espresso consistently using volumetric, for high volume Cafe I might be preferred double group and double steam wand, one group for one barista
That's not entirely true. Commercial machines in the US will be 240 volt. Maybe, maybe there is a commercial single group that uses 120 volt 20 amp outlet but that would be the rare exception.
Hi, why not work with two or three one head dual boiler machines (like GS3, Eagle One, Decent, ...)? Easy upgrade from 2 to 3, if one is broken the other(s) still make coffee&steam, in times when it is usually not as busy you can turn one off and save Energie. Are there reasons I didn't see?
you would be referencing a Multi boiler over a dual boiler, this allows you to turn off a head. once you get past a 3 group we would recommend a 2nd coffee machine, then you can truly turn off a machine if needed. also if you have a multi boiler and the steam element dies, you have no steam at all.
Anything in particular? Usually there is 2 for single basket and 2 for double. The buttons can be programmed to any volume that suits your recipe. So ignore the pictures really.
@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters I mean which one should I press If the client orders 2 Expresso cups. A.The button with 2 cups half full or B. the button with one cup that is super full or C. the Button with 2 cups super full?
It depends on your daily usage how efficient and convenient that machine is? Is it going to be beneficial for you and your cafeteria? It all depends on your vision and missions.
Well that’s something you would have at home not really at a coffee shop because coffee shops are busy unless you have just a food truck it’s better for 2 or 3 group
I’m gonna use Linea Mini for my about to open coffee shop, it has one group, the problem is there are 80+ seating on the shop, so i have to serve a splitted espresso so i could make 2 cup at once
Great machine but challenging if you want to get the coffees out fast. You’ll only want to split your shots on small cups so tricky for many large coffee orders. Any chance of upgrading to a La Marzocco Linea Classic 2 group?
Nope. Not unless you’re doing heaps of coffee with 4 baristas. Possibly if you want to separate takeaway from dine in coffee orders. Lots of additional work and costs. Better of having good workflow on a 3 group.
Awesome. I think there is a lot of people in the same boat. I answer these questions a lot so this video will help me not have to repeat myself 😂 Have you got a coffee shop or looking to open one? Jimmy
