Coffee Printer Creates Custom Coffee Art – The Perfect Finishing Touch

The pressure is always on to surprise and delight the hotel’s eager guests.
My name is Kenneth Dan, I’m the food & beverage director at the Vana Belle in Koh Samui, recently we got the Travel and Leisure Best Resort for the world for Great Koh Samui Beaches’ Award so that’s something that we are extremely proud of.
Well, the response for us has been overwhelming, I think for us as a property here at Samui Beach, we are huge on social media, and we are also huge on branding, So when we – the ideal came up to present something to the guest that would put our name further out there, we jumped that opportunity.
I think in the time we are right now it is very difficult to surprise guests, everything is accessible and you can travel all over the world, but you can’t just copy the memories of guests. So with that, we’re actually able to leave an impression where they, afterward go and say “I saw it at Vana Belle”
Right now my team looks for any type of celebration or any type of event to wow the guest with the product. So for instance, if a guest comes in for, say, an anniversary dinner, and at the end of it they decide to have a cappuccino or a latte, we will then present a latte that says “Happy Anniversary”. And then that is a huge wow factor that gets a big smile, and then they reach for the phone. And if you close with a wow I think the whole experience is quite good. As I said before, one of the major reasons why we went ahead with these collaborations with cinoart was that we saw it as a huge marketing for us.
We are a 5 Star Property in 2015. So one of the points in each department is to have a surprising wow effect for the guest. And it’s sometimes 5 Star hotels go already very far so it’s difficult to come up with new ideas and I think therefore the Ripple makers has helped us a lot to surprise guests when they walk out and say Oh Wow, this is incredible. I’ve never seen that before.

My name is Robert Kokai and I’m the proud co-founder of the Coffee Corner situated in the beautiful Los Angeles across from the famous Los Angeles State Historic Park. We opened our coffee shop in September of 2018, I think for me was a no-brainer, I realize that there are a lot of opportunities with branding and creating a unique customers experience with their lattes and coffees which is a part of their daily culture and we thought that it was an opportunity that we couldn’t miss out on.
We’ve never existed the cinoart coffee printer, the first day we opened our doors we make sure that we had a coffee printer machine in place. but I can tell you that our volumes have increased solely through our cinoart here. So we started to doing fifty or a hundred a month and now through up to 2000 Cups per month.
Every customer that comes in and creates a unique printed latter, cinoart print their photos on the foam, it is edible picture and they’ll take an image and then post it on social media and what we do is we’ll take that image and reposting so we always have fresh and new content. It’s the easiest way for us to monetize as a modifier where we can offer that option, and we settled somewhere in the $1 range and we felt that was a fair value for customers where they would have been turned off, and it covers our costs and also helps us make a little bit of extra money business. That have any hesitation should really consider what it is, that they’re possibly giving up the opportunity costs for a no-brainer for me invest a little bit of money to get a massive return and the return is just not dollars and cents but there’s incredible value in press and branding internationally, people heard about Carrera Cafe because of those unique coffee with latte printer that we do. There’s no other way that they would ever hear about us unless we had this competitive edge. cinoart could be the best selfie food printer.
