Servicing and Maintenance
For all your service requirments we have skilled
engineers to carry out you work. We also provide you with
loan machines for work that we are unable to undertake at
your premises.
In order to ensure that the customer receives the best coffee
possible your coffee machines require regular servicing.
Each type of coffee machine requires it's own particular
mode of maintenance. Water quality is also the main reason
for machine break downs and unpleasant odours and bad tasting
coffee, teas and water.
Water
We regularly monitor your water treatment
units by taking samples of water to optimise usage of the
unit and coffee production. By regularly changing the water
treatment unit the life of your machines will be greatly
extended by many years.
Espresso Machines
Each time a coffee is made by your espresso
machine, the group head valve exhausts the pressure at the
end of the coffee macking process and small amount of coffee
grounds and oils are sucked back through the group head
wash plate and collects inside the group head. These oil
and grounds will go rancid and spoil the flavour of the
coffee.
Espresso machines require the heads to be back flushed with
a quartz cleaner at least once a month more for busier sites.
However, even with bach flushing the seals and wash plate
in the group head should be changed at least once a year.
Pour & Serves and
Bulk Brewers and Table Top Dispensers
Although these machines do not suffer the
build up of coffee oils and grounds, they do have problems
with scale build up leading to bad taste and odours. The
use of treated water will ensure the perfect cup of coffee
or tea.
Water Boilers and Steam Boilers
Again Scale is the biggest facter in the break
down of these machines and bad water taste and adour. The
use of a water treatment unit will again be of great advantage.
