It is a Legal Requirement that coffee machines comply with PSSR. Users and Owners of coffee machines have a legal duty to ensure their coffee machines are operated safely, suitably maintained and examined at set frequencies in accordance with a Written Scheme of Examination (WSE) which begins prior to first use.
We are always happy to share our experience and knowledge for applying PSSR to the coffee industry, and although the Regulations can appear complex at times, a start point is to merely just ask, we are here to answer your questions.
In 2010, a steam coffee machine exploded injuring 16 people, five of whom were hospitalised. The incident sent a shockwave through the coffee industry. The coffee machine weighed 73kg. It was fixed to the counter and plumbed into solid piping and to electrical points.
When it exploded it exerted enough force to uproot itself off the counter, rip out the pipework, rise to the ceiling of the café and travel seven meters across the cafe floor. Eyewitnesses believed a bomb had been detonated from the sound and carnage it created. This accident highlighted the need for coffee machines to be examined.
This Coffee machine was new and did not have a Written Scheme of Examination in place.
Our primary aim is to ensure this does not happen again!
