You're a coffee legend then ;) I'm away from my espresso machine at home, so I'm using a Stovetop Espresso Coffee Maker, it's not too bad, but I do miss my home brew!

My coffee routine is... Wake up, brush teeth, use my eureka grinder to grind coffee (freshly roasted weekly), make me and mum a cup of coffee and try to create a perfect latte leaf... more work to do on this!... If there's time before 2pm I'll make a second cup!

I remember the days when sugar was always in my tea or coffee, now I don't think I'd ever add sugar! Turkish coffee is always a good one for a big kick in the morning :)

Try all the different barista oat milks, there's some really nice ones. For me, I like Minor Figures Organic Barista Standard Oat Milk, there's also Oatly Organic Barista and others, but those are the top two for me. They do taste quite different, if you like the taste on it's own, you're more...

really helpful posts thank you all :)

Thank you for sharing your lovely story, I'm glad you have a setup you enjoy :)

just sent to my mum 😆

@JohnnyRocket, you helped me with my query on selling coffee beans, wondering if you can help @juliamt3 here with setting up a coffee shop. I gave some thoughts above based on my thinking from other posts and past business ventures, but perhaps you have more direct experience on this.

Thank you Johnny! Appreciate this :) I was already thinking it'll be important to give lots away early on, so this is useful to hear, I handn't thought about farmers markets, but makes a lot of sense!

Appreciate you trying to help Noorjahan, but I'm looking for advice from real sellers of coffee beans not chat GPT. There are some good points in here but as it's from GPT it's not tried and tested. If you could indicate that you used GPT to make the post that would be helpful. Evidence it's...

Do you already have a network of potential to guaranteed customers? From a lot of the posts on these forums, this is the number one thing I've seen repeated from those who have started a coffee business, without a reasonably guaranteed customer base it's difficult to succeed in the space...

Hi, I've seen a number of posts about coffee business and it's got me itching to get involved! May I ask whether anyone's tried selling home-roasted coffee and how long it took before you started seeing profits? My initial thoughts on the costs are the bags, a sealer, and postage as I have...

This is the machine (link)? Wonder if this distributor in the video can help, their website is at 2:42 in the video. If you can send a video of the issue, someone here may be able to help.

I'm also interested in hearing people's experiences with this! Julia, may I ask about the current costs you have noted? My initial thoughts on costs are Direct Coffee Machine Grinder Cups, cutlery etc Food Wastage Indirect Accounting s/w and/or personnel. Company registration costs (we have...

This sounds like the best way forward tbh, let us know how you get on steffi and what works...

Unfortunately, this appears to be a scam website, look here.

a lot of the site is in russian, it looks insanely dodgey... I'd recommend researching on youtube on how to promote your Instagram, there's bound to be lots about it online. Worse comes to worse, ask chat gpt!

Hi, Hope you are well. May I ask if there is a rules page on selling your personal coffee items? I have a couple of machines and one is commercial, however, I'm not a business, just a person trying to make space in the house (and someone who made some interesting decisions on what to buy before...

Solis ones are not too bad to start with, mine was around £220, brand new, however you can probably get a much higher quality 2nd hand one on gumtree... i think the us equivalent is craigs list? Or ebay etc. You'll have to make sure the previous owner got it serviced regularly if it's a Vibiemme...

avoid degrees unless there's a guaranteed job at the end (eg law/healthcare), total waste of money IMO. I think everyone has already given some solid advice around starting your own cafe and I never started one so can't comment on that. If you don't have parental backing or significant cash...

Yes, there are lots of espresso machines for home use. I have two suggested routes for you to choose: Home Espresso route Personally I've used high-end machines like Vibiemme Domobar Junior to low-end ones like the Solis. Now I will say that I roast and grind my beans at home so it's pretty...

Hi, I'm from New Malden in the UK. TL;DR - I went from loathing coffee back in my early days of university (2013ish) to now loving it so much that I make my own, like I imagine a lot of you! If I was to summarise the events they'd be as follows: The Beginning - I thought of coffee as a tool...
