Kees van der Westen Slim Jim Triplette: three independent groups for high-volume service
Three baristas can work side by side on the Slim Jim Triplette without fighting over temperature. Every group has its own small stainless boiler and electronic control, while a large steam boiler serves milk and hot water for the whole bar.
Built for the queue
Water heading to the brew boilers is warmed first through a cross-flow heat exchanger, so a long string of flat whites will not drag the groups down. Oversized shot timers sit right beneath each head. The bastone levers store two programmed volumes per group, and a slow, stepless pressure ramp lets you grind finer for a fuller extraction. A two-temperature tap blends in cold water for splash-free long blacks.
Closing time and quiet days
An automatic back-flush cycles all three groups together eight times. ECO mode can drop a single boiler or the entire machine, and on/off times can be scheduled around trading hours. Panels, legs, cup rails and handle colours can be specified to suit your fit-out.
