Frequently Asked Questions

About the TenderOne machine

TenderOne is not a premix or post-mix system. The machine doses each ingredient individually, directly into the glass. Recipes are easily adjusted to your liking, giving you complete control over taste, quality and consistency, without waste.

With TenderOne you make cocktails, mocktails, spritzes and other mixed drinks. The machine is flexibly adjustable and suitable for different beverage concepts within the hospitality industry.

A cocktail is prepared in about 10 seconds. This ensures speed behind the bar, consistent quality, and less waiting time, even during peak times.

With 16 ingredients, dozens of cocktail variations can be set up. The exact number depends on the recipes and ingredient combinations chosen.

The price depends on the type of machine and the options chosen. During a demonstration we will map out your situation and give an appropriate proposal.

Payback time varies by location, but in practice is often between a few months and one year, depending on volume and cocktail price.

TenderOne machines are designed for intensive hospitality use. With proper maintenance and service, they are reliable and stable in daily use.

Space, installation & use

In many cases it does. Thanks to its modular design and pipes that can be extended up to 20 meters, the installation is flexible. Components can be placed in different places in the company, such as in the basement, on a floor or at the back of the warehouse. During a demonstration, we will look together at which set-up best suits your situation.

The space required depends on the type of machine and the arrangement chosen. A tap column built into the bar requires about 25 cm of free space, although we recommend 50 × 50 cm for sufficient working space.

Ingredients are placed under the bar or elsewhere. Juices and prosecco are placed in a refrigerator. Other ingredients can be set up via hoses up to about 20 meters away, such as in a warehouse or on another floor.

Yes, upon delivery after installation, we provide training. All recipes are programmed in, including on-screen instructions and photos. Most employees learn the basics in about 10 minutes and then can prepare cocktails independently.

The machine is designed for simple and quick maintenance. Only the fruit juice pipes are put on water overnight and reconnected so that there is water in these pipes.

When starting up the machine, you flush the water out of all pipes at the touch of a button and they are automatically refilled with fruit juice.

Clean the tap column as you do the rest of your bar. Briefly brush the beverage outlets with a toothbrush and a little lukewarm water. This ensures hygiene and quality without complicated procedures.
