After inserting money, coffee beans fell into the grinder inside, which was ground by hand with the crank. The powder was filled into a thermos containing hot water. The automaton was attached to the outside wall of the canteen so that the railway staff of the marshalling yard in Mannheim could make a thermos full of hot coffee during the night shift.
