NOTES & THOUGHTS
single phase electricity
anything from 200 to 240
pretty much anything - yes
only have 110 need 20 amps
more amps
no matter the voltage - we can wire it however needed / whatever voltage you have
#1 thing - single phase power needed (not multi-phased)
WHAT LANGUAGE CAN MAKE THIS EASIER
what outlet/recepticle
110 volts (or range) - 20amp circuit needed
discourage from this - slower heating / 3 liters max - 15-20 minutes between batches
220/240 (all the same) - 20amp - reduced volume (3KW heating element)
220/240 - 30 amp - gallon at a time
Installer - anyone who can / is install your other coffee equipment should be fineDOCUMENTATION IS STRAIGHTFORWARD AND WE CAN WALK THEM THROUGH AS NEEDED
--machine comes on pallet
--install the bulb (carefully)
--drain should be easy to connect
--if no drain - just needs a drip tray
-water/electrical
3/8 compression to 3/8 john guest / (plastic tubing)
for electrical - actual rating (voltage/amperage) - single phase
+ receptacle
MUST be configured to proper voltage/amperage

220/240 - 30 amp - gallon at a time
MUST clarify if drain line or drip tray
WATER line 3/8 push to connect
recommend 30amps/220v & L14-30R - suggested (4 wire configuration) - can work w/ 3 wire, but preferred 4 wire
WATER FILTRATION
-biggest issue - bad source water
-for quality, think the same as a well filtered espresso machine
BUT - it's important water is suitably filtered to prevent scaling and no chloramines
For flavor - espresso spec should be the same
For maintenance - chloramine removal and scale prevention
--reverse osmosis may be necessary -
FOR DISCOUNT
first define which models they want (specifics)
order together, discount
save on shipping (2 on one pallet)
one now / one later -
$500 off per each one as the ballpark discount --
6k each if he buys two w/ quartz & stirring, etc.
bigger pump
Primarily would allow usage of finer grounds
slightly increased throughput
use 15-20% less coffee (could pay for itself very quickly)
more fault tolerant
Fancier cafes - more extraction w/ a higher pump
more fault tolerant
use less coffee
eat club --
--admin was supposed to brew it
--1/2hp pump for offices + locking pin + proximity sensor, etc.

WHAT TYPES OF AIRPORTS OR CARAFES CAN I USE?
We are carafe agnostic. As long as it fits in the vertical space under the spout it should work fine (13.5 inches). We do have a few that we know work well as a starting point for you though:
A
