Slayers of SCAA & the Award-Winning Single Group

Apr 04, 2015

All our friends came to town and we brought our favorite toys. This year’s SCAA Event in Seattle was home to 9 Slayers, both in- and outside of our booth – let’s take a look at our favorites.

Matte Black + “Ferrari Yellow” Single Group

Our first matte black Single Group also wore yellow sides, custom pained with Ferrari’s iconic color. Introducing a new addition to our wood palette, we paired it with Black Limba portafilter handles and steam/brew actuators.

Oh, that plaque? You guessed it: Slayer Single Group won the People’s Choice Award for Best New Product in the Commercial Equipment category! Thanks for your votes, SCAA – we’re proud to have our favorite machine officially recognized with this honor.

Ninety Plus Maker Series Single Group, ft. Stefanos Domatiotis

Ninety Plus partner Stefanos Domatiotis and his championship-winning coffee inspired the look of this one-of-a-kind machine. It’s the first in a family of Makers Series Single Groups, which are certain to be equally gorgeous.

This white powder coat body, decorated with Stefanos’ likeness, was matched with polished, red Xs and Paduk wood. These colors evoke the flavors of Perci, Stefanos’ coffee from Ninety Plus, which presents notes of ripe, red fruit.

Custom “Flesh Storm” 3-group

Our workhorse for the weekend, this machine received a new body treatment that we couldn’t be happier with. Mirror chrome Xs and (new!) Tigerwood cup rails tied it all together to create a stunning centerpiece.

If you enjoyed espresso from any of these beauties, there are a few folks to thank: Ninety Plus, La Colombe, Novo, Klatch, Bold Bean, Brown, Portola, Caffe Ladro, Cartel, Slate, and Kuma. Our barista crew included friends from Ninety Plus, Bellissimo, Clive Coffee, Methodical, Brue Bar, 33 Acres, Swell, and Barista Parlor. Thanks, all!
