The Clover 1s MachineThe Clover 1s is the first of its kind: a single-cup, commercial grade coffee brewer designed specifically for the cafe and retail environment.How does it work?
The
machine employs what we call Vacuum-Press technology, which - for the
first time - combines two methods considered best for brewing coffee:
the "French press" and the vacuum brewer. Individually, these home
brewing technologies have sufficed for more than 100 years. But they
have drawbacks in the fast-paced retail environment, including the fact
that they take five minutes or more to deliver their brew, and can be
awkward and messy.
With the Clover 1s, quality is maintained but time is
reduced to about a minute. Grind size, coffee dose, water temperature,
water volume, and extraction time-are all at the barista's fingertips.
And with a single swipe and a wipe, clean up is simple. Plus, since
each cup is brewed individually, they can be adjusted cup-by-cup, using
Clover's simple yet sophisticated interface.
Best of all, Clover is a new and powerful way to reach
your customers. A way to expand the dialogue about coffee, to introduce
new varietals, and to discuss their origins. And ultimately, to help
you build your business by turning coffee fans into coffee fanatics. OK, really... Why CloverYour beans deserve it.
As a
barista or retailer, you work hard to provide great coffee. And so does
the entire industry. And yet it's here at the end of the line, just
before brewed coffee makes the leap to the customer, that quality is
often in danger. Why? Because with the wrong brewing equipment, even
great coffee can only reach mediocre status. With Clover, you'll get
exceptional coffee every time.
Your business can bank it.
Clients
using Clovers in their retail environment report a 20% increase in
brewed and whole-bean coffee sales. Use Clover to sell single-origin
coffees, different blends and boutique coffees. Also tap into a bigger
market for brewed coffee hardware and accessories, such as press pots,
Melitta pour overs, and Vacuum Pots.
Your stock room will love it.
An
average retailer dumps 30% of their product down the drain every day,
as a result of having to turn over their air pots every 20-60 minutes,
depending on quality standards. That's 30% of your stock completely
wasted. Once you do the math, you can see how Clover pays for itself.
Competitors don't have it.
The
Clover is not for everyone. But it's ideal for retailers that are ready
to up their quality - and their advantage - over the industry's
numerous competitors. Having Clover is just another way of
differentiating yourself, underscoring your commitment to quality, and
providing a standout product for your customers.
Customers dig it.
The
Clover is an experience. Something your customers will enjoy. Placed
prominently, they can watch and smell their own coffee brew, discuss it
with their barista, and enjoy the experience like never before. Plus,
programs such as a "Coffee Passport" can educate them on single-origin
coffees, and help them cultivate their own palate.
