Hall 22P, Booth Numbers: R35, S36, R45, S46
Geislingen, Zuchwil, Montebello, 05.10.23 – This year, for the first time, visitors to the Host can experience the impressive, combined coffee competence of SEB Professional at one booth. Under the motto “Discover the world of coffee with us” and with a joint café as a focal point, the three brands WMF Professional Coffee Machines, Schaerer and Curtis are presenting their innovative solutions for coffee consumption outside the home together in Milan. This underscores SEB Professional’s position as a global player and one-stop-shopping solution provider whose wide range of brands and products are in line with customer requirements and coffee trends worldwide. In addition to allowing an exchange of ideas among professionals, the focus at the exhibition stand is on coffee enjoyment. The joint café invites visitors to relax in an informal atmosphere and serves, for example, inspiring coffee signature drinks based on recipes from various regions of the world which the customers of WMF Professional Coffee Machines, Schaerer and Curtis call home.
WMF presents innovations for premium coffee enjoyment
In order to meet current trends for coffee consumption outside the home, WMF Professional Coffee Machines is presenting a wealth of pioneering products and solutions in Milan (Hall 22P, Booth R35 S36). The focus of the trade fair presentation is on the WMF espresso NEXT. Its semi-automatic portafilter sets benchmarks in modern coffee culture. New features for automated coffee preparation and milk dosing processes and particularly easy operation take process reliability and consistency and excellence of coffee quality to an even higher level. At the same time, the aesthetically pleasing and dynamic machine design underscores the authentic barista feeling. In this way, the WMF espresso NEXT bridges the gap between two worlds: it combines the compelling advantages of automation with the traditional art of espresso preparation with a portafilter. In addition, WMF Professional Coffee Machines will be presenting the new WMF 1500 F to a professional audience for the first time. A bean-to-cup fully automatic coffee machine, it offers convincing, state-of-the-art functions and guarantees a uniformly high degree of coffee enjoyment wherever you need to prepare freshly filtered coffee quickly and reliably in large quantities. The presentation of the digitalisation team “WMF CoffeeConnection” rounds off the trade fair concept of WMF Professional Coffee Machines. Visitors can find out at first hand how to exploit the advantages of digitalisation to best effect – from simple data analysis to complete integration of the coffee machines into innovative business models.
Schaerer inspires with real-life application scenarios
What is a promising coffee concept for an American convenience store? Which coffee machines and features contribute to the success of Chinese coffee shop chains and what is the coffee concept of the future for offices? At the exhibition booth (Hall 22P, Booth R45), Schaerer takes visitors on a journey through different worlds of coffee enjoyment and shares the experience gained during the implementation of countless customer projects worldwide. Products as well as market- and customer-specific solutions are rendered tangible in real-life application scenarios: for example, at the heart of an American-style convenience store corner, there is the Schaerer Coffee Soul complete with the new cleaning system Schaerer ProCare and digital solutions for ordering and payment. In the “coffee shop“ scenario, on the other hand, Schaerer presents technologies which make these business models successful – including, for example, the Schaerer Coffee Skye with optional 30-gram brewer for the large beverage portions which are particularly popular in Asia. In addition, in a separate area, Schaerer is presenting digital solutions for coffee vending and staff catering.
Curtis presents comprehensive portfolio for freshly brewed filter coffee
The professional Curtis filter coffee machines meet the highest requirements when it comes to beverage quality and the serving of filter coffee. At the Host (Hall 22P, Booth S46), visitors can gain comprehensive insight into the Curtis philosophy and convince themselves of the company’s wide portfolio of machines for freshly brewed filter coffee. For example, the Curtis G4 Gold Cup Single Cup filter coffee machine. It was developed with the aim of preparing coffee of a quality which meets the Golden Cup Standard of the SCA (Specialty Coffee Association). The result? A perfect americano – the classic among the US coffee specialities. The Curtis G4 ThermoProX and Curtis G4 GemX Gemini brewing systems, on the other hand, are ideal for realising coffee concepts with high demand for delicious filter coffee. And “twin” variants are available for particularly highly frequented areas. The digital G4 fourth-generation control allows intuitive operation of the machines and reliable preparation processes, enabling operators to individualise their filter coffee offering with various recipes.
