Drinks machine
Vending machines are mostly designed for the sale of cold drinks , but also for hot drinks and even soups . The drinks machines deliver the drink in open form in a mug , as bottles or cans .
Vending machines are often sold or mostly rented out by breweries , which then also take care of the filling and maintenance . A power connection is usually required at the location for cooling or heating equipment, and a water connection is often also required for vending machines that do not deliver bottled drinks.
Beverage vending machines are not allowed to be used for the sale of alcoholic beverages in Germany, because unauthorized distribution to minors can not be excluded with simple coin payment .
