    Is your mobile coffee trailer still around PHX?

      It is not. We sold the business and bought a house in Northern Arizona.

    Why don’t people put in rapid recovery ice machines in coffee trucks? I have a fairly small NSF machine that I am considering using, but I have never seen one in a truck.

    I made the jump to purchase a food truck. I hope to do soft opening of the coffee truck this coming spring, 2023! I am specifically grateful that you shared information about the ice machine vs using ice cooler. Due limited to space, I will get ice cooler. Few questions: What espresso machine do you recommended and power/ volt requirement? How many group head for coffee truck? I wish you many successes. Thank you!

    This is exactly what I did when I started, and then boom, 6 months later at one of my events I was asked to open a coffee bistro "cart" inside a busy vendor mall. My launch date for that is this Friday . It's $500 a month and includes power, bathroom, water, storage and trash. Yeah buddy! I'm in washington so the cold months it's going to come in handy. And I'll be hiring someone for the snow free months to run the store while I do my events. My parents live in Surprise actually. Next time im there ill have to go visit you guys. Congratulations and keep up the good work! I'm IcedOutCoffee

    What type of espresso machine do you use? And can you fill it with water in a reservoir or do you have to connect it to a water source

    • @imperfectlyholistic
      @imperfectlyholistic 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      We use a Nuova Simmonelli Appia ii compact 2 group. 220v. We can not fill a reservoir. We run water from our fresh tank, through a RO system, then a pump draws it to the espresso machine. 😉

    • @imperfectlyholistic

      We don't. We load our product into a huge ice chest during transit and load it once the refrigerator reaches temp. Usually within 15 minutes of run time.

    Great video man. I am investing in a similar unit in Ireland. But we are haveing powering issues due to the coffee machine being to powerful for the generator. I was looking g at buying 7kva generator. But it seams its not enough to run fridge- lights - grinder - machine etc Any fees back would be great Thanks

    • @imperfectlyholistic
      @imperfectlyholistic 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Awesome bro! My grandfather was from Ireland, its on my bucket list! So, we run the Honda Eu7000is 7000 Watt and haven't ran into any issues. Our espresso machine is a 220v along with everything else we run including AC, RO, Lights, grinder, fridge, water pumps, ect... You should be good with 7k.

    • @imperfectlyholistic
      @imperfectlyholistic 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The other thing with the Hondas is they can be bridged together. I know some of the larger diesel generators would work as well.

    Nice video. I have some questions about your set up time. When you do arrive at the location, how long does it take you to get all the machines up to working temperatures, and do you keep it plugged somewhere overnight (I assume the refrigerators are on constant power)? Thanks

    • @imperfectlyholistic
      @imperfectlyholistic 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hey Johan. We actually shut everything down. It takes us about 20 min. To set up. First thing we do when we arrive is fire everything up. Typically, by the time we are completely set up, everything is a ideal temp.
