How a Minimal Setup Gives Unmatched Versatility and Simplicity

What if your café could serve high-quality cappuccinos and lattes, quickly, consistently, and with minimal training?

That’s not a hypothetical anymore. It’s already happening in Sweden.

By combining Slow Brew coffee concentrate from 3TEMP with milk foaming precision from the Latte Art Factory, this new setup is redefining high-volume coffee service in venues like arenas, event centers, and stadiums.

The Challenge: Scaling Quality in High-Volume Venues

Espresso machines and baristas remain essential to specialty coffee. But in high-traffic environments, like concert halls or sports arenas, traditional café workflows can become bottlenecks.

Speed, consistency, and ease of use become critical. Training new staff for a traditional setup is time-consuming, and equipment downtime or cleaning demands add operational strain.

That’s where this minimal solution shines.

A Smarter Workflow: Slow Brew + Latte Art Factory

This new system supports baristas in environments where speed and scale matter most.

Here’s how it works:

• Coffee concentrate is batch brewed using 3TEMP’s Slow Brew system: 20 minutes of brewing yields 1.1 liters of rich, consistent concentrate.
• The concentrate is stored in thermoses, ready for service with no need to brew on-demand.
• The Latte Art Factory handles all milk texturing (dairy or plant-based) with precision and consistency.

Result? A smooth workflow that delivers high-quality cappuccinos and lattes, at the push of a button.

No tamping. No steaming wand. No espresso station overload.

Proof in the Pour: Stockholm Live Pilot

At a major event at Stockholm Live’s Strawberry Arena, the setup delivered:

• 600+ drinks served from just one sales point over a single weekend
• Average price: ~5 EUR per cup
• One-third of the setup cost recovered in two days
• Less than 20 minutes of training required for staff

Customers praised the drink quality (especially for plant-based options) and operators noted how easy and intuitive the system was to use.

Sustainable, Scalable, and Smart

This system is fast, cost-effective, and sustainable:

• 30% less milk waste

• 100x lower idle energy use than traditional espresso machines

• Shorter training time for operators

• Reduced cleaning and maintenance needs

• Consistent drink quality all day long

And it scales beautifully: one centralized brew station can supply multiple Latte Art Factory units across an entire venue.

Extending high-quality coffee service into new spaces where traditional setups don’t make sense, like stadiums, conference halls, and festivals, has been a challenge until now.

For these environments, Slow Brew + Latte Art Factory is proving to be a smart, sustainable, and scalable solution.
