What this means is that once you go beyond just doing coffee and basic prepacked food you need a second sink plus some other stuff.
Most council health officers Ive spoken to suggested you need it regardless. They consider milk a risky food product (any dairy) and hence the need for a second sink.
All councils to my understanding are going off the national food safety guidelines.
That was my understanding too the local guy said one sink was fine here but I am going 2 sinks anyway and thinking of putting in foot operated taps too.
The other cool thing I am considering is a jug washer from Espresso parts. A bit exe but it should save water while rinsing so it might be worthwhile. also will do for one of the sinks or they have one I could cut into another sink.
Careful with that jug washer BF. It will become the talking point of your entire operation. I dont care how shiny and impressive the rest of your equipment may be, it will be completely overruled by that jug washer.
That one Beanflying put a picture up of is very similar to mine and its pretty much a Walk in Walk out purchase. Might be worth considering?
Then again, if you reckon you can construct most of it with the help of friends, give it a shot.
BTW, to get back on the original topic, mine has a Honda EM70is generator (6.5kva max) with an inverter. You could practically power your house with this beast.
I bought this all set up, so I had no hand in deciding things. My understanding of electricals is pretty rough, but I believe that an inverter is required to change the DC current of the generator to AC - I could be completely wrong.
Off the top of my head, the trailer is an 8 footer, similar to the picture beanflying posted above. It has a winch mounted to allow the cart to be pulled up on to the trailer. Before I got the electricals done for the winch, my arms were getting quite the workout winding it manually.
Im not sure which picture of Attilios you had, but I know the mobile van set up his son had for sale a while ago ran completely off deep cycle batteries with an inverter. Expensive to set up and if you run one battery down, it can kill the entire bank of batteries, requiring replacement.
Honestly, the 12litre boiler Milano/Wega on my cart is probably overkill and if money werent an issue at this point, Id probably downgrade to something smaller with a 10amp element. It means organisers are more likely to lend you a power circuit and you probably have a larger option of generators to choose from.

what size trailer and suspension setup do you need to carry this beast
With suspension in particular you need to work out the weight you want to carry first then engineer the trailer suspension last.
Running a 3 grp on 3000W we happily managed 2 of us on steam and pulling shots as well, part of this is due to the big reserve of steam from the large boiler. A 2 group compact on 10A will die a death with more than one good operator and even then you will be waiting from what I have seen. Go LARGE 8-)
