Coffee with just a touch

Two new touchpad-controlled coffee centres made their debut at the Pub Cafe-Bar Show. Named Contessa and Baroness, the units are made in Wolverhampton by established coffee roasters Shropshire Coffee and targeted primarily at pubs wanting to offer a hassle-free beverage choice.

The countertop machines are finished in black and built to compact dimensions (80cm high x 49cm deep x 32cm wide in the case of the Contessa). Features include one touch operation, microprocessor control and reprogrammable settings for up to 50 drinks

Lease purchase terms start at approximately £12.50 per week and are tied to on-going purchase of a range of soluble ingredients, including black coffee, espresso, cappuccino.

The package includes 3,000 drinks free, installation and a full service package - free for three years - by the supplier's own staff, who operate seven days a week.
