Commercial-Quality Coffee Machines Sized for the Galley.
Waterfront: Joe on the Go

IT Seems everyone these days wants espresso or cappuccino or lowfat double mocha latte or other exotic coffee drink. Try as they might, household espresso machines that fit yachts’ service pantries generally aren’t up to the task for long. Leave it to a yachtsman to solve the problem! Danish industrialist, coffee aficionado, sailor and owner of Parsifal III, Kim Vibe-Petersen, heads Scanomat, a commercial coffee machine supplier. The magnificent machines that his firm supplies hotels and restaurants are marvels of grinding, brewing and frothing, but they just wouldn’t fit in his yacht. So Petersen miniaturized them. The results are the Scanomat Barista and Barista Super Compact. Handsome and functional, they do away with the mess of capsule-dependent espresso machines with their own fresh bean supply and reservoirs for all the other goodies. Hot drinks in various sizes dispense at the push of a button. Even with their tiny footprints, these java joints are geared for 50- to 100-cup capacity per day.
