Joshua, I don't think too many people have had the chance to play with the Trifecta. Since you have, can you give us some insight into the machine? How does it taste in comparison to french press or melita or hario or clever? What's it made out of? Can you take some panels off and post some pics of the insides? Does it have a water tank or does it heat the water on demand? How long does it take for the water to change temperature? What generates the bubbles? How long does it take to change the parameters? How many parameters do you have access too? Does it use off the shelf parts from Bunn's other machines or is everything custom made? How is the software loaded and updated? Can it connect to the internet? Will it break if it falls over? Is it 120vac or 208vac? How heavy is it? What is the amp draw? How many cups can you make per hour? How long does it take to pay off $4000 if you only make 3 cups an hour with it? Can it replace a bulk drip brewer? Is the coffee that much better than a Clever Dripper that a struggling coffee shop should spend the extra $3980 to get one? Can a person walk right up to it and make a decent cup or is there a learning curve? How much training would it require for a cafe staff? Can you work the bar and still handle the Trifecta or will someone else need to handle the Trifecta orders?
Right now the market only has questions. You are in a position to give us some real info.
I know right! Definately not for home brew. Hahaha. Beats the heck out of $10,000 for a Clover...when you could buy one. Definately worth it for a busy cafe though I think.

So i watched this video from a guy who appears to have worked on the Blair Witch Project and honestly I am a little lost... start to finish from grind to clean it takes four minutes to make a small cup of medium decent coffee.

This would require it's own staff member and a very select clientele who would be willing to wait...
How much are we supposed to charge for this to break even $5... there are so many steps with this thing...
Might as well just do a pour over... the show is better... and most likely the coffee too... or use your espresso machine and do the same thing is 1/10th the time... without spending four grand ... on a Bunn ...
Like I said, I am lost...
