01 · Demand Estimate Daily and Peak Usage Consider the total number of drinks required each day and how many may be ordered during the busiest hour. Peak demand is often more useful than the daily total when comparing machine capacity.
02 · Menu Define the Drinks Required A site serving espresso and americano has different requirements from one offering cappuccino, latte, flat white, hot chocolate and alternative milk drinks throughout the day.
03 · Operation Consider Staff Involvement Decide whether the machine will be operated by trained baristas, general staff or customers. This will help determine whether a traditional or automatic system is more appropriate.
04 · Installation Check the Available Utilities Confirm counter dimensions, access, clearance, electrical supply, mains water, drainage, filtration and ventilation before selecting the final machine.
05 · Milk Choose the Milk System Compare fresh and powdered milk options based on drink quality, cleaning, ingredient storage, available space and the people responsible for daily maintenance.
06 · Ownership Consider the Complete Cost Compare the equipment price alongside installation, filtration, ingredients, cleaning products, servicing, training, energy use and potential downtime.
Purchase Buy Outright Buying may suit organisations with an available capital budget that want ownership from the outset and expect to retain the equipment over the longer term.
Finance Commercial Coffee Machine Leasing Leasing spreads the equipment cost over an agreed term and may provide access to a higher-capacity specification without paying the complete equipment cost upfront.
Flexibility Commercial Coffee Machine Rental Rental may be available where greater flexibility is required. Availability, minimum terms and what is included will depend on the machine, location and agreement selected.
