In recent years we have noticed a huge increase in demand for table top bean to cup coffee machines in offices across London. Workplaces that traditionally would have sought out floor standing coffee vending equipment are now looking for “proper” coffee machines. Staff are simply more discerning and much less willing to accept a poor quality coffee.
In the past twelve months two machines that have proven popular in answering this demand are the Krea and Solista from N & W. There are a lot of similarities between the two systems. Both produce genuine bean to cup coffee from freshly ground whole coffee beans. They will create lattes, cappuccino, americano, espresso as well as hot chocolate and creamy hot chocolate. The fourth canister in the machine allows for soluble decaffeinated coffee to be added. This allows for all the coffee options to be available in a decaf format by pressing the decaf pre-selection button. Both the Krea and Solista are stylish machines that sit well in even the most modern of offices and both can be fitted with payment systems if a pay vend option is required.
The big difference between the two machines is the ability of the Solista to dispense a cup. In other words it is effectively a table top “coffee vending” machine. It can hold either 7oz or 9oz paper cups eliminating the need to use china cups that need to washed up or having stacks of paper cups laying around the office looking untidy. Obviously if you would prefer to dispense into your own china cup then the Krea is the most appropriate system for you. The other main difference if the internal sugar dispenser that the Solista provides. This eliminates the need for loose sugar or sugar sticks which may create a messy environment.
The Solista and Krea both provide a great office coffee solution. Even the most discerning coffee enthusiast will love the quality of drink that they produce as well as the variety of speciality coffees offered through both systems. It just remains for the customer to decide if a cup and sugar dispenser is required or not.
