Overview
OBM1 is a compact bean-to-cup machine for offices that want cappuccino, latte and hot chocolate without managing a fresh-milk fridge. One bean hopper works alongside separate soluble-milk and chocolate canisters for a consistent, easy-care drinks menu.
For a plumbed installation, the machine itself measures 308 mm wide, 570 mm deep and 629 mm high. If plumbing is unavailable, the matching side water tank adds 140 mm to the width. The complete tank-fed setup shown in the main photograph therefore measures 448 × 570 × 629 mm.
Allow a counter depth of 600 to 650 mm for ventilation, power and hoses. Provide 800 to 850 mm from the counter to the underside of any cupboard so the hoppers can be opened and removed, plus 30 to 50 mm clearance on the open side for airflow. Taller hopper options can increase the machine height to between 645 and 699 mm.
