We're a biotech office in South San Francisco. Do you actually make it out this way?

Yes. We keep a technician based on the Peninsula in San Mateo, so South San Francisco and the rest of the biotech corridor are a short drive for us, not a special trip from San Ramon.

Can you schedule around lab hours so a repair doesn't interrupt shifts?

We can work around that. Tell us the quiet windows in your building and we'll aim the visit there, though the diagnostic itself usually only takes part of an hour.

What's the cost to get someone out to look at it?

$99 for the diagnostic, credited toward the repair. You'll see the price in writing before we touch the machine.

Schaerer in South San Francisco

Schaerer commercial service.

South San Francisco calls itself the Industrial City on the sign up on the hill, and these days that industry is biotech and life sciences, not the shipyards it used to be. The Schaerer machines we service sit in corporate cafeterias and break rooms along East Grand Avenue and the office parks off Oyster Point, running long shifts for lab staff who need a cup between experiments, not a leisurely one. We also handle calls in Brisbane just north, so that stretch of the bay is one route for us.

These machines run harder here than in a typical office. A cafeteria break room can push a few hundred cups through a single Schaerer before lunch, and that kind of volume finds the weak part of the machine fast, usually the brew unit or the grinder.

Common repairs we do

What we close on the truck.

High-cycle brew unit rebuilds. A cafeteria-volume Schaerer wears through brew unit seals and pistons faster than an office machine ever would. We rebuild the unit and check the drive gear, since a binding brew unit will take the gearbox with it if it sits unrepaired.
Grinder dosing drift. Burrs dull under constant use, and dose weight drifts low before anyone notices the cup just tastes weaker. We measure actual dose against spec, replace the burrs, and recalibrate so the shot matches what the recipe calls for.
Boiler descale and filtration. Running that many cups a day means the boiler sees more water cycling through it than a typical office setup, so scale builds up faster. We descale the boiler and set up filtration to slow the buildup down.
