Cimbali PGS scoops top industry award
Cimbali’s Magnum on Demand Bluetooth Grinder has been recognised by the Café Society, scooping ‘Best New Café Equipment’ at the 2013 Café Society Awards which took place at the Roof Gardens, Kensington on 19 June 2013.
The Grinder incorporates Cimbali’s innovative self adjusting Perfect Grinding System (PGS) which takes all the guesswork out of making perfect espresso. The PGS grinder effectively ‘talks’ to the Cimbali M39 Series traditional machine, regulating the grind as required through the working day to guarantee a consistent in cup quality, irrespective of the skills of the barista.
According to the judges, “The Bluetooth coffee grinder was a particularly innovative piece of equipment that would be a great help to operators to improve and maintain the quality and consistency of the coffee served. “
Carl Bjorkstrand, managing director of Cimbali UK who accepted the Award from Alan Miller, Café Bronte, said “As espresso forms the basis of the entire speciality coffee menu it is vital that operators get it right. Unfortunately, the industry we are in is known for the use of casual, inexperienced staff and a possible consequence of that is a drop in coffee quality.
“As a manufacturer our goal has been to help operators address this challenge through the use of new technology. Our team of 40 design engineers think outside the box and use new technology and materials to drive up standards whilst making the barista’s job a lot easier with less room for error. The Magnum on Demand Grinder with PGS is a classic example of Cimbali technical excellence of which we are very proud. We are delighted that our innovative approach has been recognised by our peers from within the industry.”
The Café Society Awards aims to encourage good practice, innovation and standards by recognising those who continue to push the boundaries and lead the way in promoting all aspects of the Café Society in the UK.
