Another important aspect is related to sus-
tainability. Many specialist coffee shops are not eco-
nomically profitable because the obsessive search for
excellent quality leads them to accepting a lot of wasted
coffee, energy and water. And this certainly does not
benefit the future of the industry because it gives few
prospects to baristas. The combination of the VA388
Black Eagle and Mythos One offers a real solution to
the issue of sustainability because they allow the barista
to significantly reduce waste and energy consump-
tion. In some coffee shops baristas using them could
increase the weekly average of double shots produced
by a pound of coffee from 41 to 48. Imagine what that
means to the economics of a coffee shop that consumes
40 or even 70 kg per week!
Victoria Arduino Black Eagles are already being used at World Barista
Championship and many Barista Competitions around the world.
