Situation
Many convenient store chains and gas stations find offering premium brewed coffee is extremely profitable. Their discerning customers know what great-tasting coffee tastes like, yet the clerks, pre-occupied with all their other tasks, have difficulty monitoring the coffee bar to ensure that the best coffee is always served.

Solution
These convenient store chains and gas stations installed Prince Castle timers to monitor the coffee's hold times. Not only did the Prince Castle timer's alarm sound when the coffees' time had expired, it also demonstrated to their customers that the store values the coffee's quality as seriously as they do.
