Water Boilers

What is a commercial water boiler and how is it different from a kettle?

A commercial water boiler keeps hot water ready for repeated use throughout the day, making it practical for cafés and busy beverage stations. A kettle usually heats smaller amounts as needed, while a boiler is built for continuous service.

What size water boiler do I need for a café?

For a small café, a 5–10L water boiler can be a good starting point, while busier cafés may need 20–30L capacity. Look at peak-hour demand, not just daily volume, and check the boiler’s recovery rate and cups-per-hour output before choosing.

What is a Marco water boiler?

A Marco water boiler is designed to provide a consistent supply of hot water for cafés, restaurants, offices and other beverage operations. Depending on the model, you can choose different capacities, dispensing setups and countertop or undercounter configurations.

What is an undercounter boiler and why do cafés use one?

An undercounter boiler sits below the worktop and supplies hot water through a dispensing font or tap. It can be a smart choice when counter space is limited, while keeping hot water readily available for coffee, tea and other drinks.

What is a water boiler urn used for?

A water boiler urn is used to hold and dispense hot water for repeated service. It can be useful for tea stations, coffee service, offices and events where people need hot water throughout the day rather than waiting for a kettle to boil.

Should I choose a countertop water boiler or an undercounter model?

A countertop water boiler keeps the controls and dispensing point within easy reach, while an undercounter model saves valuable workspace. Choose based on your available space, expected water demand, and how your beverage station is laid out.

What is the difference between a water boiler and a Marco Coffee Brewer?

A water boiler mainly provides hot water for drinks such as tea and pour-over coffee. A Marco Coffee Brewer is designed to brew coffee itself, so the right choice depends on whether you need hot water on demand or a dedicated coffee brewing system.
