Crane Coti

Three things in practice. First, menu breadth: the screen comfortably surfaces a richer drinks menu without sub-menus, including custom names and modifiers. Second, promotional content: the screen rotates branded content, daily specials, or location-specific messaging when idle, which matters for hotel and customer-facing sites. Third, accessibility: font scaling, contrast modes, and audio prompts can be specced, which buttoned interfaces simply cannot deliver. For high-traffic public sites, all three earn their keep.

It's the capacity of the integrated cup carousel: the machine stores and drops up to 800 paper cups across its three cup sizes, so the coffee point never relies on someone keeping cup stocks topped up. Ingredient hoppers (3.5kg of beans, 2.5kg of milk, 3.4kg of chocolate) are sized generously but will need refilling before the carousel runs out on a milk-heavy menu, so we plan the service cadence around your actual drinks mix.

Same chassis, same install footprint, same power and water requirements, and the same 800-cup carousel and hopper capacities. The differentiator is the interface: a 21.5-inch HD touchscreen on the Coti versus backlit touch buttons with a 5-inch colour video display on the Cali. Pick the Coti when the screen is doing real work (promotion, accessibility, public-facing experience). Pick the Cali for steady office or hotel staff use where the screen would be over-spec.

Different propositions at the high end. The Coffetek Vitro X5 is a high-volume bean-to-cup with optional filter brewer and dual grinders, focused on cup-quality at scale. The Franke A Line A800 is the premium Swiss flagship with triple boiler and parallel dispensing for absolute peak-throughput sites. The Crane Coti's strength is the integrated 21.5-inch screen for customer-facing experience plus self-contained cup handling from the 800-cup carousel. We help you decide based on whether peak throughput, premium cup quality, or customer-facing screen experience is the priority.

Yes. The screen supports content rotation, branded promotional loops, and location-specific messaging. Content updates can be managed locally or, where the site supports it, through Crane's connected services for remote menu and promotional updates. For multi-site deployments this is meaningful: a single content update reaches every Coti in the estate without site visits.

Floor-standing placement against a wall, plumbed cold mains water, and a standard 13-amp 230V supply. Standard install timelines are 2 to 3 weeks once specced and ordered. Service includes quarterly preventative maintenance covering descale, grinder calibration, and wear-part replacement. The Crane parts ecosystem in the UK is well-established, so consumable lead times are typically a few days rather than weeks.
