Ristretto produces 150 espressos in 5 minutes

Ristretto, the UK’s premiere event coffee company, recently produced an amazing 150 espressos in just five minutes to coincide with the timing of a speech given at a conference for the Advertising Association.

“This was a last minute request. The theme of the speech was ‘Wake up and smell the coffee’ and each espresso cup was branded with that message. The speaker wanted the delegates to start receiving the espressos just as he reached the part of the speech where he was delivering this message,” said Ristretto’s managing director Joseph O’Hara.

“It was a great idea – but it needed to be executed well or it would have fallen flat. Having produced 480 espressos previously in 15 minutes after dinner for a blue chip financial client, I was confident we would be able to deliver.

“You need to have a clearly defined plan of action and a well trained, well practised team. We did a trial run before the event to ensure we could produce 150 properly extracted espressos, with no quality compromise in the time available.

“Having worked closely with the agency Space who were running the event, we were able to ensure that everything was planned properly and the event was a great success.”
