Prelude With Water Base Cabinet

The Prelude fresh bean to cup coffee machine, the stylish office coffee solution.

PreludeThe high street coffee shop boom has heightened our expectations of hot beverages. The Prelude is living up to those expectations by providing freshly brewed whole bean to cup coffee and fresh leaf tea, all from a sleek, stylish machine.

  • Ideal for front-of-house public and self service sites
  • Perfect for modern offices that are short on space and big on style
  • Serve high-quality beverages without the mess or fuss of traditional systems
  • Stop wasting time and money on messy kettles

‘Coffee house quality’ from a single choice menu

The Prelude may be compact, but there’s no need to compromise on choice. Delight your customers and staff with a full menu of ‘coffee house quality’ beverages including:

  • Italian style bean-to-cup coffee
  • Traditional freshly-brewed leaf tea
  • Delicious, creamy hot-chocolate
  • Decaffeinated or fair-trade coffee
  • Café-style drinks including latte, café au lait, cappuccino and macchiato
  • Adjustable sugar and strength so drinks can be personalised

Use your own tableware

  • In-built sensors detect when a cup is present
  • Staff can fill their own cups, mugs or bottles
  • Jug fill feature is ideal for serving hot drinks in meetings

All of which makes the Prelude ideal for both staffrooms and reception areas.

Features and benefits

  • PreludeHigh performance, paperless brewer technology, unique to Westomatic, guarantees the punchiest espresso and the perfect cup of tea
  • Choose any method of payment: whether it’s free-vend, cash or swipe-cards, we can fit a system to suit your needs. Payment modules are popular with employers who want to control their hot beverage provision.
  • Ingredient whipping system mixes ingredients smoothly, to produce the creamiest café latte and the richest, frothiest cappuccino.
  • Vending operators can measure trends, monitor performance and cash, using simple USB technology. Why waste time entering data when you can have all the auditing data you need on your PC?
  • Versatile, menu- driven programming means setting-up and maintaining your Prelude is quick and easy. Removable drip-tray and durable exterior means it’s also hygienic and easy to clean

Also available with a stylish water dispenser

The Prelude H20 base cabinet doubles up as a stylish water dispenser.

  • Unlimited supply of refreshing, chilled water at the touch of button.
  • Mains fed water from a Brita filter, so you never run out
  • No need for a separate water cooler in the office
  • Have hot drinks and chilled water in one compact system

Save the planet with your morning cuppa

PreludeEco-conscious businesses will also love the Prelude’s ‘green’ credentials. The light-tube free design, flash cooling and an in-built energy management system add up to make the Prelude extremely environmentally friendly.

  • Light-tube free design – no more fluorescent filled tubes to replace. Long-life LED lights last up to 5 years, saves money, reduces waste.
  • Unique, in-built energy management system reduces power consumption by up to 30% during inactive periods
  • Use of recycled materials wherever possible
  • Water flash cooling system means power is only consumed when a water selection is made
  • Permanent, refillable ingredient canisters, paperless brewers and own-cup or bottle-fill facilities mean less packaging, wastage and ultimately: cost.

The Prelude Coffee Tower concept

“An unbeatable 10 drink selections including perfectly brewed tea!”

The Prelude is also available housed in a stylish coffee tower.

Unlike others on the market, the Prelude coffee tower offers an unbeatable 10 drink selections including:

  • perfectly brewed tea
  • hot chocolate
  • luxury whole-bean coffee
  • soup

PreludeAll from a single, direct-choice system - that means your clients won’t loose precious point of sale space having to add additional units to supply a full range of beverages!

A hot water option also means you can cater for new markets with speciality tea bags such as Earl Grey, herbal and fruit tea - self service beverage systems simply don’t get any hotter than this!

And don’t forget, the Prelude’s integrated sugar, strength and milk options means your clients can personalise their drink - even before it’s brewed, so you can avoid the mess and fuss associated with traditional pour-over systems.

Using innovative ‘pulsing’ technology, the Prelude brewer blends ingredients to perfection, the result; a beverage that rivals those made in a high-pressure espresso system!

Couple that with touch-sensitive menus (either multi or direct choice) and your sophisticated high-street coffee-shop offering is complete.
