A full coffee set up can greatly vary in price, so it’s hard to put an exact number on the final cost. It is important to consider the small extras involved when buying a coffee machine and grinder.
Home-use coffee machines sometimes have a built in grinder and supply coffee accessories as a part of a package. These are relatively cheap and can produce great coffees if you know how to use them and take good care of them. Home machines can range from £500 to £1,500.
Semi-professional or “Prosumer” coffee machines can produce high quality barista style drinks without the need for a large amount of space and a large price point. Not only do they provide good quality but are more durable, can offer more options to adjust settings and can be used for some professional services.
Semi-professional machines can be anywhere from £500 to £3,000. You will need to buy a coffee grinder alongside however in most cases.
Professional/commercial machines are definitely more expensive but can offer a huge variety of benefits based on the buyers needs. For many business, larger coffee machines would require a good filtered water system, a professional coffee grinder and a plethora of coffee accessories to help improve workflow. Some coffee set ups can be up to multiple thousands of pounds but can also provide a good return is used well.
