The
right Milk Solution ? |
|
|
Specialty
Coffee such as Cappuccino, Latte and Café au Lait
are still gaining in popularity. The challenges of handling fresh milk are
often overlooked. The Ambiente-2
addresses every aspect and concern of dealing
with fresh milk. |
After
all,
Milk is a Dairy Product
|
|
Before buying an espresso machine, consider:
- How much hot milk is required per hour (peak)
- Recovery time
- Simultaneous steaming and brewing
- Staff training and turnover
- Barista or not
- Cleaning and sanitizing of milk utensils
- Milk storage and handling
- Consistent quality and quality control.
|
|
Key Concerns:
- Milk Storage (Temperature)
- Hygiene and Sanitized Handling
- Foam and Milk Temperature
|
|
Milk must be stored just below 5°C otherwise bacteria
growth is inevitable. The Ambiente-2
features a compressor powered Mini
Refrigerator. The milk can be left inside for 24 hours or more (unlike
with other 24 Volt units).
|
|
Milk over 5°C will grow bacteria already after 3
minutes. In other words, all utensils in contact with milk, such as steam
wand, stainless steel pitcher, automatic foaming devices including milk
tubes must be cleaned immediately. The Ambiente-2
will rinse and sanitize the entire milk system
from within the refrigerator after every milk product dispensed.
This ensures an absolute hygienic and sanitized milk system all day long.
|
 |
The Ambiente-2
features a patented twin chamber automatic
Milk Foaming / Steaming Device. Milk is independently heated for hot foam
or hot milk via steam injectors. The end result is the Foam Temperature at
70°C and the Milk Temperature at 80°C. |
|
|
Other
Available Milk Systems: |
| Traditional
Steam Wand |
 |
The steam wand is easy to keep clean. Just
wipe it with a wet cloth right after use. If a stainless steel pitcher is
being used for frothing, it too must be cleaned immediately. Staff must be
proper trained on foaming techniques. |
|
Auto Steam Wand
|
 |
The steam wand features an integrated
thermometer monitoring the milk temperature as it is being steamed. The
steam will then automatically shut off at the correct milk temperature
ensuring consistent milk quality. Staff is able to attend to other tasks
while the machine is steaming milk. |
|
Auto
Cappuccino Foamer
|
 |
This Single Step Automatic Milk Foaming
device produces high quality hot foam. It is not intended for hot milk.
The foamer is not automatically sanitized after every use. |
| Foamino
Hot Milk Foamer |
 |
The foamino keeps the milk hot inside a
container. Ideal as an add-on to existing equipment or for high volume
applications. The milk left over in the evening becomes waste as it can
not be re-used in the morning again. |
