ABSTRACT:
A portable cabinet is provided for facilitating the operation of espresso and coffe-making machines and for the merchandising of espresso and coffee. The cabinet includes a counter top with at least two beverage preparation stations at different levels, one for preparing espresso and the other for preparing coffee. An internal fresh water supply and plumbing system enables the cabinet to be used at locations where a continuous supply of fresh water is unavailable. Filtered water from a holding tank is supplied to both beverage preparation stations on the top counter. A power distribution system built into the cabinet supplies electric power to both beverage preparation stations and to built-in lighting within the canopy which extends over the top counter. An internal waste water collection system drains waste water from the espresso-making machine to a waste water holding tank. A sink is built into the top counter, including a water faucet with water supplied from the fresh water plumbing system and a drain which drains to the waste water holding tank. Protective devices within the cabinet prevent overflow when filling the fresh water holding tank and alert the person working behind the cabinet to an overflow condition in the waste water holding tank. Another device automatically protects the espresso-making machine against damage from operation when the fresh water holding tank is empty. Sufficient storage space for coffee and espresso-making supplies and a large refrigerator are built into the cabinet.
