7.3 Ingredient Dispense
1. The ingredients required for making up either an instant or freshbrew
drink are contained in ingredient canisters and are dispensed by means of
an auger located in the base of each canister. Each auger is driven by a 24v
DC 130 rpm motor.
2. The amount of product dispensed by each canister is controlled by the
vending machine controller and may be adjusted via the
Selection Timers
menu (see page 34) in the Engineers Program.
3. The required ingredients for each vend are delivered to a mixing bowl,
where they are blended with hot water by a high speed whipper prior to
discharge at the dispense head.
4. To ensure a free flow of ingredient powder and granules, it is essential that
they are kept completely dry. This is achieved by extracting steam from
the mixing system using an extract fan. The electrical supply for the
extract fan is 230v AC.
N.B. The fan runs continuously whilst the cabinet door switch is in the on
position.
5. Espresso (B2C) machines: Coffee beans are stored in a bean container
which is fitted with a sealable lid to keep the beans fresh and are dispensed
into the CoEx® Brewer via a grinder located under the bean container
outlet.
The amount of beans dispensed from the container is controlled by the
vending machine controller and may be adjusted via timing constraints set
in the
Selection Timers menu (see page 34) of the Engineers Program.
7.4 Mixing System
1. The mixing system utilises a 24v DC 13,000 RPM motor assembly and
mixes ingredient with hot water from the heater tank to make a drink.
2. The mixing units are front mounted and secured by a single fixing screw.
For servicing, the complete unit can be quickly and easily removed from
the front of the machine.
N.B. An illustration showing the parts breakdown for the
Mixing System is
included in Section 13 - Spare Parts (see page 173).
7.5 Moving Dispense Head
1. Genesis machines are fitted with a moving dispense head mechanism. This
allows for a quicker and more direct cup drop and also helps to prevent
cross contamination of drinks. The head features three separate dispense
positions depending upon the drink being dispensed.
