I'm new to the forum, and also new to the business. My wife and I are opening a small bakery and want to offer coffee and espresso/latte/caps to our customers. I don't foresee a huge bsuiness, say around 100 cups/day for the near future. Although I am very picky about about what I drink, my wife knows NOTHING about coffee, and does not drink it, she will will also be the primary person staffing the store. That is why I am thinking about a superauto, it will be easy for her to use and will provide consistent results. Although the quality will not be "great", I believe that a superauto will prodcue a better shot than going to Starbucks or the equivalent.
To further make things easy for my wife, I am thinking about a machine that will also dispense steamed/frothed milk from an attached milk cooler, thus removing the necessity for her to learn how to froth milk consistently, and the need to clean the steam wand and pitcher all the time. Machines that I am looking at are the Jura S9, the Franke Ecolino 1-Step, Carimali F12. Any input on these machines, or other suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
