Barmelweid has served as a small cosmos for its community for over 100 years – as a clinic and employer, local recreation area, health institution, natural habitat and training facility. But in 2014, the lack of accommodating space prompted an extensive renovation and expansion project, including a new on-site public restaurant and hotel.
With four A1000, sixteen A800 and four A600 Franke coffee machines placed throughout the grounds, every patient, staff member and visitor could simultaneously savor in the sumptuous views of the neighboring Swiss valley and their barista-quality coffee creation.
“Our goal is quality leadership in all areas — including in the technical gastronomy and kitchen infrastructure. It was particularly important to us to be able to offer high-quality coffee at the Barmelweid Clinic," says Jürg Rebholz, Barmelweid Hotel Manager.
A number of features and functions compelled Rebholz to transition to Franke, among them are our innovative and integrated technologies in the A800 and A1000.
iQFlow™ enabled best-in-class aroma extraction and guaranteed coffee quality cup after cup, while FoamMaster™ ensured consistency of both hot and cold milk froth individually adapted to the selected coffee product or milk type.
The A1000 also came equipped with two coffee grinders and a three-boiler system used for hot water, coffee preparation and steam. In addition, Barmelweid also opted for a Flavor Station. Other impressive functions were the large digital interface and built-in payment system where employees could scan their personal badge for convenience choice and purchase.
