Smaller venues often want takeaway coffee but cannot justify a fitted counter or a member of staff behind it. The Ciao Coffee to Go Station VS1 is the entry point into the range: a compact serving station that carries the machine, its ingredients, cups and waste in a single tidy unit and asks only for a mains socket and somewhere to stand.
Brewing and drink range
Each order triggers a fresh grind, so the espresso base is made at the moment of serving rather than held in a jug. Canisters of dried milk and chocolate powder widen the menu to include cappuccino, latte, mocha and hot chocolate, giving a genuine choice from a machine that takes up very little floor area. Selection is a single touch, which matters when the person ordering has never used the machine before.
Features worth noting
- Fresh bean grinder brewing to order on every drink
- Dried milk and chocolate canisters covering milk-based specialities
- Compact serving station footprint for tight retail or reception areas
- On-board cup, lid and consumables storage
- Integrated waste bin to keep the area presentable
- Automatic rinse programme for simple end-of-day hygiene
Convenience stores, small forecourts, workshops, salons, offices, clubhouses and waiting areas are the obvious homes for the VS1. Because it runs on powdered milk, there is no fridge, no dated milk to check and no milk system to strip down, which keeps the daily routine to refilling, emptying and running the cleaning cycle. That matters most where the person looking after the machine is also serving customers, stocking shelves or covering a reception desk. For a site trialling coffee sales, or one that simply wants a better drink than an instant urn provides, it is a low-effort upgrade with a professional finish and a footprint small enough to sit alongside an existing till point.
