Espresso Elements and the Vic 1000 South East Program

Tuesday, September 23rd, 2008

The Vic 1000 South East Program is an exciting opportunity for small to medium businesses in the Bayside area to take a fresh look at their operations and help the environment. 

This is a 12 month program managed by Village Green Environmental Solutions and funded and supported by Bayside City Council, the State Government’s Sustainability Fund and South East Water.

As part of the VIC 1000 programme, Village Green will work closely with 40 businesses in the Bayside area to help them improve their environmental sustainability.  These businesses will be guided through a process of assessments, workshops and training. 

Espresso Elements agrees with the Bayside City Council motto: “Sustainability is good business.”

(The first workshop was held 08 September and was a really informative and interesting night where we gained insight into our impact and our sustainability.  And every little helps!  Looking forward to the next workshop at the end of September. - Ed.)

New Giotto Plus by Rocket Espresso

Sunday, September 14th, 2008

Has anyone had a go of the new Giotto Plus by Rocket Espresso?

Firstly, you would think the first Giotto that was created could not be succeeded.  But I can tell you that it has!  The Premium Plus has solid feet so the machine won’t wobble, for those times you over pack the group handle a little.  It also has a new style drip tray which helps when being a little lazy in emptying the excess waste.

Other new features to this beautiful machine include glossy handles and larger round pressure gauge further enhancing its timeless state.

As Australia’s one and only Molly Meldrum would say “Do your self a favor!” and check this espresso machine out at Espresso Elements.  Available Now.
