9 Grams Every 40 Seconds Yields A Cup

1:00 PM - 06/13/2005 by Frank Völkel

The reservoir for the coffee beans is made of a shortened plastic bottle - there was no other way to make it work.

Typically, a single espresso requires 9 grams of pre-ground coffee. This is the standard amount in professional circles. To save money, however, the amount of coffee can be reduced to 6 grams per cup. This can be done without a noticeable change in flavor and without the coffee tasting bitter. In restaurants, such practices are a proven means of increasing efficiency. The system can make a cup of high quality espresso every 40 seconds. That would mean that in the course of a day, 2,160 cups of coffee could theoretically be brewed, providing the coffee beans were continually refilled.

Here we can see the motor for the coffee press

A glance at the brewing unit - the coffee grounds have just been ejected.

Nothing special, it just parts of an idustrual coffe-exprssos machine moved to a ugly talll pc case.

If it was a gizmo that used three 5.25 bays and still let you keep the case
as a computer when we are talking.

Well I'm quite sure ya could fit a slim notebook's internals into the case, if you were willing to lengthen wires and such.

Might have some issues with the heat of the boilers etc.
I have a high quality espresso machine and the side panels, (with about 2 to 3 inches of air space between them and the components), get very warm. I'm not sure a laptop's hardware could deal with that.
