About Blend-In-Cup
The Blend-In-Cup beverage system is a self-contained
dispensing unit that allows the operator to make flavor
combinations of blended and non-blended drinks. It holds
product flavoring in a refrigerated reach-in base enclosure,
has a refrigerated ice making machine and includes one or
two mixing modules.
The operator controls and accesses the unit using a lighted
touch screen. Icons on the drink selection screens
represent the primary flavor combinations for the drinks.
There are multiple drink size options. Menu changes and
additions are uploaded using a USB mass storage device
and the Menu Connect Software platform.
On-screen instructions also include operator procedures
for cleaning/sanitizing, checking inventory, replacing
product bags, selecting drink sizes and manually preparing
drinks. Managers and technicians have access to menu/
software updates, diagnostics and other service screens.
