Your bar,your way.

Modbar puts slim espresso, steam and pour-over taps on the counter and hides the machinery underneath. Nothing stands between your baristas and your customers.

Taps on top. Everything else underneath.

Each system is a tap on the counter linked to its own module below. Pick an example to see how the pieces fit together.

  1. One espresso tap

    Start here

    One espresso tap

    An Espresso AV module and its tap. Everything else can follow.

  2. Add a second espresso tap

    + Tap · same module

    Add a second espresso tap

    It connects to the Espresso AV module you already have. No new module.

  3. Add Steam

    + System · new module

    Add Steam

    Steam is a separate system, so it brings its own module.

  4. Add Pour-Over

    + System · new module

    Add Pour-Over

    Pour-Over 2.0 adds filter coffee, with a third module underneath.

+ TapEspresso AV and Steam modules each run up to two taps of their own kind. A second tap connects to the module you already have.
+ SystemA different system, or a third tap of the same kind, needs its own module under the counter, with its own power, water and drain.

Installation

What goes under the counter.

Modbar needs more planning than a countertop machine. These are the things we check with you before installation.

Cutaway of a Modbar counter: taps above, modules in the cabinet below, with numbered installation points ON THE COUNTER UNDER THE COUNTER ESPRESSO AV MODULE STEAM MODULE
Illustrative cutaway, not an installation drawing. Exact positions and services are confirmed before installation.
  1. Cabinet space and ventilation

    Each module sits in the cabinet under its taps and needs space around it for air to circulate.

  2. Electrical supply

    Each module needs its own dedicated supply. We confirm the right connection for your site before installation.

  3. Water and drainage

    Each module needs a cold-water feed and a gravity drain inside the cabinet. We specify water treatment for your water.

  4. Tap-to-module position

    Every tap needs a hole through the counter and must sit within 1.5 m of its module, so taps and modules are planned together.

We check your site, specify the setup, then install, commission and service it.
