Swiss coffee machine manufacturer Schaerer has launched a new '2-step' configuration for its Coffee Soul 10 and 12 models, responding to the growing demand for efficient preparation of speciality coffees in the food and beverage sector.

This latest offering aims to balance the need for speed and quality in coffee service, particularly in high-demand environments.

The '2-step' configuration replaces the fully automated milk system with steam wands that allow for varying degrees of manual foaming.

This design enables faster service by allowing baristas to prepare espresso and milk foam simultaneously, thereby reducing customer wait times during peak hours.

The system also enhances flexibility by accommodating different milk types and plant-based options, catering to diverse consumer preferences.

By eliminating the need for an automatic milk system and cooling unit, the new configuration also presents lower investment and maintenance costs for operators.

This could be particularly appealing for smaller establishments or those looking to streamline their operations without compromising on beverage quality.

Schaerer’s Coffee Soul machines are designed to output up to 250 cups per day, making them suitable for busy coffee shops and restaurants.

The addition of a third boiler can further enhance performance, allowing for the simultaneous preparation of hot water, steam and coffee at different temperatures – a crucial feature during high-traffic periods.

The '2-step' configuration is complemented by three variations of steam wands, catering to different levels of barista expertise.

The 'Supersteam' wand automates the frothing process, allowing operators to preset temperature and foam consistency for up to eight beverages. This automation enables staff to focus on other tasks while the machine handles milk frothing.

Alternatively, the 'Autosteam' wand offers partial automation, requiring staff to monitor foam consistency visually, while the 'Powersteam' wand allows for complete manual control, enabling skilled baristas to create intricate latte art.

Schaerer’s 'Mix & Match' principle further allows customers to customise their machines according to specific business needs, including design elements, the number of grinders, and additional features like syrup stations and hot and cold technology.
