Buy Compak R140

from £377.63 per month or £3,680.00 ex VAT

Coffee to go.

Massive 140 mm burrs and a 1,600 W motor require 3-phase electricity supply. The R140 can grind 2 Kg coffee in less than a minute. Plus, the burrs have a working life of over 12,000 Kg. Switch from espresso to filter grinds with a twist of the dial. The 2.2 Kg hopper easily contains a retail bag of coffee and the bag clip allows it to be conveniently filled again.

Ideal for coffee shops who not only need a dedicated grinder to support their retail coffee programme but  require rapid throughput. If your business only occasionally grinds customers’ coffee, the multipurpose R8 may be more convenient for you. And if you are regularly grinding retail coffee but don’t have a 3-phase supply, consider R120.

Less common options, and bespoke customisations, can be ordered through customer services. Any additional options are summarised below and all factory options are usually listed in the product sheet, available in Equipment Catalogue.

Customisation work impacts Lead Times

Where possible we typically opt for customisation work to be done in the factory. Other customisation work is performed locally by engineers or a body shop. Please allow additional lead time for customisation work.

Carbon emissions from use

Usage is the greatest cause of most products’ carbon footprint when totalling emissions across all stages of a product’s life from manufacture to disposal.

There a tendency to overlook these emissions, especially if the primary focus is on reducing waste. In 2023, approximately 162 grams of CO2e were emitted for every kWh generated in the United Kingdom. Continued shifts towards renewable and nuclear generation, we well as the phasing out of coal and gas generation, will reduce the carbon intensity of electricity over time.

You can lower your electricity consumption and carbon emissions by purchasing energy-efficient coffee equipment and using energy-efficient practices. Tips are available across United Baristas.

Maintaining equipment

You can lower overall emissions by maintaining this product in working condition and prolonging its working life. You can source parts and find engineering services in Directory. From a carbon reduction perspective, it makes sense to upgrade when a new product’s efficiency is great enough to outweigh the embodied carbon within several years.

End of life

As many components can be recycled and most metals can be recovered. Dispose of this product responsibly and do not discard in general waste. Further information is available in the product’s manual. It’s also useful to understand the lifecycle of products.

Payment can be made using a debit or credit card or by bank payment. Additionally, monthly instalments are also available for this product for companies registered in the United Kingdom.

Stock Available

We endeavour to keep popular products in stock. When stock is available, items are typically dispatched within two working days of payment clearance. Espresso machines are bench-tested before dispatch, please allow two additional working days.

Factory Orders

Orders that utilise production options, bespoke manufactured or not available from the UK warehouse are categorised as factory order items. These products are typically dispatched from the UK warehouse within 10 – 25 working days of payment clearance. Lead times vary by manufacturer, an overview is available. We will contact you with an expected dispatch date when you’re item is en route to the UK warehouse.

Product options and customisation

Products that require bespoke assembly, customisation or manufacture have longer lead times. It’s best to order these items well in-advance as it is easier for us to store these items in the UK warehouse than it is to speed up customisation work or manufacturing.

Product options are typically completed within 5 working days. Comprehensive customisation work can take up to 50 working days depending on the complexity of the work and the availability of parts. If your item is being assembled or painted by the manufacturer, the factory lead-times apply.

United Baristas ships to UK physical addresses. Free shipping is available on products over £200, some exclusions apply and there are surcharges for some bulky and oversize products to remote regions. Any shipping costs are calculated at checkout.

Dispatch

Orders are dispatched as soon as practically possible after payment clearance. However, by arrangement, we can store purchased items in the UK warehouse until you’re ready to receive them. Tracking or delivery information is provided at the time of dispatch.

Bulky & heavy delivery

Bulky and heavy items are delivered palletised with a kerbside delivery service. Make sure you have the ability to move bulky and heavy items from the lorry into your premises.

Cleaning

All grinders should be regularly cleaned to prevent build-up of grounds in the burrs and chamber. This is typically done in-house as part of the shutdown procedure. Cleaning your grinder both improves the quality of your coffee and helps prevent wear.

Product Information

Specific care and maintenance information is available for this product. Videos and documentation is available in Equipment Catalogue.

Maintenance & Service

With use, the burrs eventually lose their sharp edge becoming blunt. Replacement burrs are readily available and can be installed in-house by someone with moderate training or by an engineer as part of a service visit.
