Nope. Italians don’t know how to make pizza. If you want real pizza you’ve got to come to America and if you want the best pizza, Chicago.
Yeah, I’d give it a go, but the pizza from the machine’s not nearly as big as the tins the girls are handling in the pic, though. [Tins? What tins?]
anyone know what these machines cost?
I think it was a misspelling.
All your pizza are belong to us!
In principle I have no problem with machines like this...I do wonder how they keep all the components sanitary over the 100 serving service period. Never cared for salmonella on my pie although pepperoni and Italian sausage are good.
Supposedly the Let’s Pizza is 32 grand.
I didn’t wanna be TOO apparent... ;)
Salmonella adds a bit of savor. :)
The cleaning / hygiene aspect is a slight worry, but less so than some guy with a cold sneezing on the pizza while making it.
I worry about them more in general terms. Machines never get tired, never go on breaks, and rarely take vacations (except when they break down when you need them the most). Lot cheaper than people in the long run - so where will the jobs be?
Betting you did your time in food services / retail / call centers too. It is almost a rite of passage. If that goes - where will the kids learn a decent work ethic?
Guess it depends on what you have to pay for space..like a RedBox..
Ha, I read the stickers above the vend buttons, from L-R: Maybe Beer [suspicious], So-So Beer, OK Beer, I am BEER!, I Love BEER—at 102 yen to the buck, not a bad deal...
I got info here it said 24 kwh of power per pizza. Guess it depends how much a kwh of juice costs. Saw one poster say 6 cents, that would be $1.44 per pie, ow...
Need to verify, saw on the news desk Van Halen traveled with 196,000 TONS of equipment on a late tour, the USS Iowa was 'only' 46,000 tons total. Ya gotta wonder where those numbers came from,
But when does it become a pizza?
Every little bar would want one...
Not plausible at all. Let's assume most of the energy usage is the heating phase. Let's assume they have a powerful heater, which would be around 5 kW. It takes appr. 2 mins to bake the pizza. That's 1/30 of an hour. 5 kW x 1/30 h = 0.17 kWh. Even if they use a master blaster 10 kW heater it's only 0.34 kWh. Add some power to move the stuff around etc. and we're still on the sunny side of 0.5 kWh.
Bet you did your time in retail...first job was in retail at a gas station in a sketchy part of town. Manager showed me how to work the credit card machine and then opened a drawer to show me where the .22 revolver was...found the rest of my yuteful jobs in light manufacturing. Your point is well taken though, the kids have to find that first job.
Voltage supply 230 VAC SINGLE PHASE+N+T
Frequency Hz 50
Maximum power kW 7.50
Maximum consumption A 18.9
Exactly. :)
I can see owners of this machine making an absolute killing at music festivals etc - but if it works well, it’s going to knock the more of the young out of that vital first job. That is never a good thing.
You had a .22? Lucky. I had a ladle. OK, I had several dozen gallons of very hot fat to dip it into!
