Thank you for showing the cleanup between shots! I've watched dozens of videos and nobody shows the process end to end. Great tips!
Thanks hope it helped in some way 😀
Thanks for the tips.
Your set-up is by far one of the best I've seen. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks! Just wanted to share our experience
Thank you so much.. so helpful
Your bar is my dream! Everything is amazing
Thank you! it was very useful 😊
Thank you so much
Thanks for sharing your workflow wisdom!
No worries!
Thanks for the tips and ideas setting up a coffee bar. Some notes to takeway for my new house setup later. Hope to dropby your cafe soon.
You are more than welcome Marco. Yeah, do swing by if you are ever around the area.
Thank You
The Linea Classic S is beautiful, wow! Really nice space ☺
It's definitely a very very nice machine. User friendly too.
Awesome video. i am currently designing my own coffee bar and trying to layout the station. Would really love a detailed video explaining what the ideal dimensions of the station should be, where and which appliances (the names and models of the auto tamer machines, grinder) to place ideally.
Thank you. So helpful
Glad it was helpful!
Nice and clean!
Thanks!
great job bro ... in realtime , i can say you got one of the fastest setup for serving the drinks to custmr ... less clumping and clean workplace setup ... i love to see it in action
Thanks! We try our best to be fast and consistent too
Hii! I love your coffee bar set up.. I’m starting my coffee shop soon and I only got a room like 350x400cm. And probably those set up might works on mine.. Do you mind telling me the length of your tables? Or do you have suggestions for me for the limited space.. Thanks🙏🏼
Nice set up! 👏
Glad you think so! Thanks for watching
Nice video. Good host! I will check out your other videos.
Awesome, thank you!
Good espresso setup vid!
I'd like to know more about the setup, equipment, and process for making and maintaining batch brew.
Yes, we will hopefully make a video on it. Here in Malaysia batch brews are not too famous yet so most don't even know it's on the menu. But currently at our shop we use a moccamaster for our setup.
Loved the video and i think you'll inspire people to take on the challenge of owning a cafe. For me though, I'd place the portafilter cleaner in the grinding area, and the jug rinser on the left side so you can dedicate one person to steaming milk, pouring, and popping lids on and calling out orders during the morning rush. Its also important to have your fridge close by too so you're not running around grabbing milk. The main thing is working from left to right or vice versa. In a little coffee shop i owned, the cups went over the top of the machine and we did our puck prep on the right, then pull the shot, steam the milk on the left and pour and hand the cups back to the customer. Also the malkonig you have there also tells you how much the burrs have moved out of alignment during the day. You can just adjust the grind till it reaches your original grind setting and keep going. Great for new baristas who know how to make coffee but don't understand dialing in.
Yeah we've learned a lot after setting the bar up our first time. Definitely will need some improvement on our next bar. Would love to add a filter bar too.
Hey bro, just a tip you can go to your optometrist and they can bend the arms of your glasses inwards at the back to stop them from sliding down the nose and causing you to have to constantly push them up.
🤣 thanks for the tip! I really should get going haha
@@hisbrewcoffee it’s a life changer.
@@NotSafeForWork420, but then his index finger has nothing to do anymore. Perhaps he can use his finger as a wdt distribution tool.

Yessssss the puck bucket should be at the grinder
Made that silly mistake. Good lesson learn. Will change it in the future
. Peace.. Shalom.. Salam.. Namaste
🙏🏻 😊 ✌ ☮ ❤ 🕊
Great video, thanks for sharing. I was thinking where you write the type of coffee on the cup , do you put an order number on it as well to keep track of who's ordered what as it sounds like your volumes are pretty high at peak times?
Hi there. We have a ticket holder that is printed by our pos system. And so we placed the ticket behind. It's not very intuitive but we started from scratch without any experience so didn't know what we were doing 🤣
Thank you for sharing this, it's so smart and so satisfying. Can you please also show us also how you arrange the counter drawers under the machine?
Bahaha you won't want to see what's underneayh our counter cause it's not arranged at all 😂
Honestly yes, I so need the help and ideas to get organized :)) @@hisbrewcoffee
Thank you for sharing your set up. What is the make & model of your grinder pls??? Do you recommend it?
Hi there it's all listed in the description. It's the mahlkonig e65s gbw. Yes high recommend it
Comfortable coffee bar lay out
idea for a video, talk about your syrups, and how to use them. Everyone would love to taste different coffees. Also tell which ones are your favorites. You also can make a series of short videos, each one with a different syrup and a different presentation..
Thanks for the idea! Will put it under our list
Great video! Which side is the espresso machine to you recommend putting the pitcher rinser?
Thanks. Put it on the side where you'll be serving to your customers. And bare in mind the leave a little bit of room for your milk jug/container. That would be helpful. Check out Artisti newest video where they talk about jug rinser in more in depth.
Great video! Thank you for it. Would you mind sharing some of the info about the equipment you are using, specifically the grinders? Thanks!!
Mahlkonig gbw, fiorenzato
Can you tell us how much it would cost to set up a coffee bar like yours?
What's the brand or model of the grinder you used for the shot in this video.. thanks and excellent setup
Hey there, it's a mahlkonig e65s gbw and a fiorenzato f64 Evo pro
Maybe you can move the grinders to the left side the machine so it d be closer? As it d probably harder to move the Portafilter cleaner. Thanks for these great tips!
Yeah we were thinking about doing that. But will have to adjust our espresso machine position too. thanks for the comment 👌
Well generally grinding is the first part of the process whereas pouring is the last part so you'd want to have the grinders at the opposite end to where you're handing the coffee to the customers so work from left to right or right to left. You'd place the portafilter cleaner near the grinders and the milk jug rinser/imilk on the other side so you can dedicate one person to steaming milk and pouring during rush hour.
Nice Video. Which Tampere do ypu use?
It's actually a brand less or unbranded. But I think the the US they rename it as Turin
can you tell me the name of the knockbox, it that a rinser, or does it just discard the coffee grinds?
Hi there its actually the NS300. We've been using it for 2 years now and so far we only had to change the brush on it, which they do provide replacement heads for it. But base on amazon's review it doesn't seem to promising
amzn.to/3Jeu3Qu
What tamper is that
Nice bar set up. You learn to adapt your business to a fast service. Same on how Starbucks serve , where is your actual stores located?
Hi we are located in Kota Kemuning Malaysia
Would love to know or a rundown on the machines you use :)
Yeah maybe I could do that real quick.
Where can I buy this machine and other tools can you give us a link I am in a process building a coffee shop I'm from the Philippines specifically in Cebu City
Hi there we will add links to our description soon so that you'll at least know the models if all the equipments
Looks nice! Do you have any issues keeping 3 portafilters hot with only 2 groups? I always try to leave my portafilters locked in when not in use so they stay hot.
Hey Tony we live in a pretty hot climate in Malaysia all year round.
Due to the high volume of our shop, the portafilter hardly have the time to cool down 😂.
Yeah but totally understand where you are coming from.
@@hisbrewcoffee Makes sense! I'm planning to add a second portafilter for my single group setup, just had to order matching baskets. Thanks for the reply!
Yes definitely useful. We started off with a single group head too. and having 2 portafilter definitely ease up and speed up the workflow. All the best!
What is the company that makes the portafilter cleaner? Nice workflow
Hey William the model is NS300, it's made by a company from China.
Thank you so much for the demonstration very intuitive, could you please help with the link of the brand and type of the machines, that will help a lot.
Ah yes that would be a good idea. Just to give you a rough idea so you can search it up,
The espresso machine is a Lamarzocco linea mini S, the grinders are fiorenzato f64 Evo pro and mahlkonig e65s, while the auto tamper and portafilter cleaner are from China. Not too sure if there is a name brand associated with it. Hope that helps.
@@hisbrewcoffee is very helpful, much apprreciated.
What tipe of grinder do you use, i try to figure out nut i cant find this type of grinder you use. Thank you
Mahlkonig GBW, EK43, Fiorenzato f64 evo xgi
@Roman.Visuals thank roman. Slight correction is the ek43
I love the setup. If you don't mind me asking, how does the coffee machine and grinder cost?
Both combine is around 20k usd
@@hisbrewcoffee If I may ask again, what do you call that thing that you used in cleaning the portafilter? where we can order and the cost please..
@thedogztv9394 hi it's actually a espresso bar rinser. You should be able to find in on Amazon
@@hisbrewcoffee appreciate thanks.
god level efficiency
Thanks, we are still learning and trying our best
What kind a blend grinder??thks
Hi we use a e65s gbw and fiorenzato
Hy, how it's name for the cafe grinder?
Hi there the grinders are listed in the description. Its e65s gbw
Curious question, what happens if there's an pour over bar?
haha, that is our dream Gian. we would love to have a filter bar too. But from a business perspective, its a little hard to justify the cost of spending on a filter bar when less than 5% of our overall customers are into filter coffee.
can you tell me the name of the knockbox
amzn.to/3Jeu3Qu
What do you look in coffee beans before buying for it to be good?
Hi there definitely look at coffee beans that has a roasted date. That is a priority
@@hisbrewcoffee after grinding it should I use it immediately?
Yes definitely. Try to get whole bean if you have a grinder too
@@hisbrewcoffee If I buy ready grounded bag of coffee will it be much different from home grinded? Or it will be mostly same? I would love your answer
The problem with using three portafilters is that one of them won’t be hot enough because it won’t be sitting in the machine. The portafilter has to be hot to properly extract the coffee
Yes true. But when you have such high volume there isint much time for the portafilter to cool down , and we are in a warm climate, our portafilter rarely gets cool.
What kind your coffee machine
It's a Lamarzocco linea classic s
1 question, why dont you place your fridge right below your espresso machine so that you dont have to turn back to get the milk
Yeah we should have done that. But there was too many pipes and wiring. We didn't think about it when designing initially
How much for the setup?
It really depends on your local distributor.
What kind of auto tamper is that?
It's made in China. You can search it up on shopee MY too
3:45 idk man that shot is...
Fridge should be directly under espresso machine
Yup agree
Idk if its just me but the sound is super weird
Yeah the Audio is a little off. We are still trying different ways to improve on it
wtf that was so quiet wtf !!!!
