Why should you invest in a high-quality coffee machine?

Investing in a new coffee machine for your office goes way beyond hot drinks. Showing you care with high-quality and readily available coffee can make employees feel valued and create a positive office culture – it’s a win win.

Which features should you look for in an office coffee maker?

When choosing the best coffee machine for your office, the features should go beyond high-quality coffee - although of course this is still important! You’ll need to consider the importance of customisation to support different coffee preferences – some may love an 11am pre-meeting americano and others might enjoy an afternoon espresso. The coffee machine should be easy to maintain and use, have a capacity that suits the size of your office and preferably have eco-friendly options so that it runs efficiently - no matter what.

  • High-Quality Coffee: Essential for a satisfying coffee experience.
  • Customisation Options: Supports different coffee preferences (e.g., Americanos, espressos).
  • Ease of Use: The machine should be user-friendly for all employees.
  • Maintenance: Should be easy to clean and maintain.
  • Capacity: Must suit the size of your office to meet demand.
  • Eco-Friendly Options: Preferably includes features that promote efficient and sustainable operation.

How to choose the best coffee machine for your office
It might seem overwhelming at first, but once you’ve got the foundations of what you need, finding the best office coffee machine should be simple. Here’s what you should look at:
  • The size of your office
  • Brewing speed and efficiency
  • Cleaning and maintenance
  • The drink preferences of your employees
  • Daily coffee usage and office traffic
  • Location and space
  • Payment options
  • Customer support

 

Budget is important but depending on the model you choose, it may not cost you anything. If you opt for a NESCAFE® Self-Serve revenue share payment model, then you’ll earn revenue with no upfront cost.

Machine Nestle
Pod coffee machines
These machines deliver quick, consistently high-quality beverages with minimal effort but can cost more per serving.
