Power Source and Usage

How Commercial Tea & Coffee Equipment Work

Ever wondered about the magic behind your perfect brew? Commercial coffee machines typically use pressure (ranging from 9-15 bar) to force hot water through compacted coffee grounds, creating rich espresso in seconds. Tea brewing systems precisely control water temperature and steeping time—essential for extracting optimal flavor from delicate leaves. Most professional systems connect directly to water lines for continuous service, while bean-to-cup machines grind, tamp, and brew automatically. The best commercial equipment manages temperature stability within 1-2°C variance, ensuring consistent taste whether it's your first serving or hundredth of the day!
