FETCO Hardtank BABY Coffee Machines

USE OF THE DEVICE

The BABY HARDTANK device is designed to make coffee, tea, cascara or other dried extracts using cold water (cold brew). After developing the maceration technique, its duration can be programmed and then the brew is automatically poured into the transport container. The device is used in catering centres that have systems for pouring drinks from kegs or other pressurized containers. BABY HARDTANK can be used to make extract to be poured to shipping containers for further distribution.

OPERATING NOTES

• Use latex gloves when filling the basket with coffee, closing the basket lid and inserting the basket into the water reservoir.
• After grinding, do not put coffee into the basket directly from the grinder outlet. The basket is electrified, which negatively affects the cold brew production process.
• Do not use an alcohol concentration of more than 60% as it will destroy the sealing elements.
• During the cold brew production process using coffee, it increases in volume, expands and presses against the walls of the basket with great force. The coffee basket must be tightly closed, and the lid must be secured against accidental opening. Otherwise, the basket will unseal, and the process will not take place properly.
• Special attention must be paid to placing the basket case on the bayonet socket in the water reservoir so that the basket does not slip out of it. Pulling the basket out of the case will lead to no water flowing through the basket, and the extraction will not be correct and even.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PROGRAMMES

The BABY HARDTANK device comes with:

• 2 basic beverage production/extraction process programmes
• 1 water reservoir rinsing programme and the device cables
• 1 water reservoir sanitizing programme and the device cables

PROGRAMME – programme to determine the production technique.

To be set:

• the production time (for a given type of coffee and its grinding) – it allows the user to set the production time in
• the range from 1 to 99 minutes in increments of +/- 1 minute
• the type of extracted material (the “COFFE” mode for coffee or the “OTHER” mode for tea and cascara),
• the desired amount of ready brew (only for “OTHER” mode; the “COFFE” mode – always 4l)
• the mode of draining the brew to the keg: automatic or manual
• Automatic mode: after the set time has gone by, the production ends with an automatic beverage overflow.
• Manual mode: after the end of production, a message will be displayed asking if the extraction time should be extended or if the programme should end and the beverage should be poured into the keg.
• The amount of ground coffee: up to the height of the ring located at the end of the vertical nozzle (upper part).
• The amount of tea: approx. 100 g

WASH – an automatic process of rinsing the system.
Rinsing time: 10 minutes.
SANIT – an automatic process of sanitizing the system and the water reservoir with bactericidal and fungicidal chemical solution + double rinsing with clean water with pumping to the sewage system.
The total sanitizing time: 24 minutes. Before the sanitizing process, the device must be rinsed if it has not been already.
FAVORITE – a quick access to your favourite recipe.
