We are at the Host 2023 - with a new appearance!
We've been looking forward to October all year! After two years, it's that time again - Host in Milan is coming up, one of the most important innovation trade fairs in the world. Of course we'll be there too, this year with a completely new look!
From October 13 to 17, we will be presenting our fully automatic coffee machines and innovations at Host. You will find us in Hall 18, Stand B60/C59 - we look forward to your visit!
We also have many exciting highlights in store for you.
New look for our trade fair stand
We have completely redesigned our trade fair stand. The design was inspired by our new unique building, which will open in March 2024. On a total area of 135 m2, we will be presenting our coffee machines, innovations and highlights to visitors to Host. An impressive atrium stretches across the entire stand and acts as a digital media wall on which we present our latest developments and special features. This design ensures the perfect balance between openness and yet aesthetic separation from the outside world. The floor, a combination of travertine and carpet, gives the stand an open feel and contributes to a bright and welcoming atmosphere. Another eye-catcher is our 15 m2 green sustainability wall, which consists of many individual plant pots. Thanks to two ramps, complete accessibility is guaranteed for all guests.
Perfected modular system
At the trade fair stand, we let guests look directly into our fully automatic coffee machines. The first thing they notice is that there are only two modules. That's right, because all the machine functions on our appliances are combined in just two elements - mechanics and hydraulics. This means that service work is only carried out on these two components and complete modules can be replaced within a few minutes. This saves time, but above all avoids long coffee machine downtimes. At our stand, we will be happy to demonstrate how our modular systemis designed and how it works.
Independence thanks to Remote Access
With ThermoplanConnect 's innovative remote access, you can control your coffee machine from anywhere. Whether you are a restaurant owner wanting to take a look at the performance or a barista wanting to load new recipes onto the machine from home - you are completely independent. You can conveniently access your machine's settings using your smartphone, tablet or computer, eliminating the need for time-consuming on-site handling. Control the machine easily and quickly from a distance.
Black&White4 neo PX
The Black&White4 neo is characterized by its remarkable adaptability and always strives to adapt to the desired needs of the customer. We are pleased to present the "PX" module at the Host! With the help of this innovative module, the neo processes milk powder into milk and milk foam. Thermoplan is thus responding to the increasing demand and use of milk powder in the catering sector. In addition, the use of milk powder has numerous other advantages, including a longer shelf life, better heat resistance, lighter weight, compactness and increased hygiene. Although the "PX" module is not yet in series production, we would still like to demonstrate its impressive features to you on site in Milan.
Cold Coffee Bar
Need a freshness kick? At our stand, we will be treating visitors to our exclusive cold coffee specialties. Our varied drinks menu offers the right drink for every taste. Whether you crave a wake-up shot for the necessary energy boost, want a minty refreshment or would rather try a sweet temptation that tastes like popcorn - our baristas ensure an incomparable taste experience. A stop at our Cold Coffee Bar will definitely be a highlight!
Coffee roasters from the house of Thermoplan
We are in the starting blocks and, after an intensive and exciting time, we can finally unveil the coffee roaster, which was created in collaboration with the Zurich startup Mikafi! We have maintained this strong partnership with Mikafi since January 2022, offering our resources, broad expertise and premises in the development and production of the roaster. The roaster can be placed in any café and freshly roasts green coffee beans on site within a few minutes according to the desired roasting profile. This creates a unique atmosphere! We will be presenting the roaster to a broad international audience for the first time at Host. Together with Mikafi, we want to take the coffee experience to a new level with this device!
Black&White4 CTS - the new steam solution
We have a new addition - welcome Black&White4 CTS! The outstanding feature of this machine is its multifunctional steam lance, which fulfills three functions at once. The Purge function, which is used to clean the lance, the AutoSteam function for conventional frothing in the pitcher and AirSteam, which froths the milk fully automatically. The CTS expands Thermoplan's product range with an automatic coffee machine that enables anyone to create the perfect milk foam, without necessarily needing barista experience and regardless of whether you are a professional or a beginner. Nevertheless, the simple operation using levers and buttons conveys the feeling of a traditional portafilter. The CTS is designed for a daily requirement of 350 steam products.
