Customers are particular about how their espresso beverages are made — so it’s important to get it right. Take care of your expensive espresso machines, while also making your customers happy by providing high-quality water.
Ice may not be on your menu, but it impacts almost every one of your cold and blended beverage customer experiences. If it’s not crystal clear and odorless, it can quickly start to make a bad impression on your customers. Particulates and dissolved minerals in your water can cause scale buildup that can damage ice making machines.
You make an investment in expensive equipment to make the best cold or nitro brew, so it’s important to help ensure your ice doesn’t impact that investment to make a great cold beverage. 3M™ Water Filtration Products for ice applications provide built-in scale inhibition as well as chlorine taste and odor and particulate reduction. That means you can help ensure your ice and iced beverages will taste great.
*Based on NSF/ANSI 42 testing of the ICE120, ICE140, ICE160, and ICE190 for the reduction of chlorine, taste, & odor.
Ever wonder what you’d do if you lost your most versatile piece of kitchen equipment — your combi oven — to a mechanical breakdown? Hard water is especially problematic for combi ovens. When water is converted to steam, it leaves impurities behind. These impurities cling to the solid surfaces and can cause problems. Over time, you’ll notice hard scale build-up, increased operating costs and maintenance downtime.
3M™ Water Filtration Products can help reduce impurities, downtime for repairs and worry — so you can focus on your customers. When you take care of your water, your combi oven will take care of you.
The most refreshing beverages are the beverages that taste exactly like they’re supposed to. High particulate matter as well as excess chlorine and chloramine residue can negatively impact the look and taste of your cold beverages — and customers will notice. Excess particulates can also cause maintenance issues and shorten the service life of expensive beverage machines.
Help ensure your beverages are as refreshing as your customers expect them to be with 3M™ Water Filtration Products. They feature Sanitary Quick Change design for fast and easy change outs and reduce excess particles to help reduce scale buildup in your cold beverage equipment.
*Based on NSF/ANSI 42 testing of the BEV120, BEV140, BEV160, and BEV190 for the reduction of chlorine, taste, & odor.
In your coffee or tea shop, you use every inch of your space as efficiently as possible. 3M™ Dual Port and 3M™ Dual Flow systems from 3M™ Water Filtration Products are designed to provide high flow rate, high capacity water to a variety of beverage-making equipment.
