ℹ️ Traditional Barista Espresso Machine or Bean-to-Cup?
TRADITIONAL BARISTA ESPRESSO MACHINES
For a café where coffee preparation is part of the service, a traditional commercial espresso machine is usually the natural choice.
The barista controls the grind, dose, extraction and milk preparation, giving you more control over each drink and the way your coffee is presented.
Pair the machine with a professional grinder, good coffee beans and the right barista equipment and you have the classic café setup.
StafCo’s traditional range includes compact 1-group machines through to 2 and 3-group commercial machines from Biepi, Rancilio and Expobar.
AUTOMATIC BEAN-TO-CUP COFFEE MACHINES
A commercial bean-to-cup machine takes a different approach.
The machine grinds the beans, prepares the espresso and — on suitable fresh-milk models — produces milk-based drinks automatically.
For cafés where speed, consistency, easy staff training or self-service matters more than hands-on barista preparation, a higher-capacity bean-to-cup machine can make a lot of sense.
StafCo stocks commercial fresh-milk systems from brands including JURA, Bestir and Carimali, with models designed for professional environments where speed and consistency are important.

Don't Forget the Coffee...
A great coffee shop needs great coffee beans
Our Italian Aroma coffee beans are freshly roasted in the UK in an Italian style, with blends ranging from smooth 100% Arabica through to fuller, stronger espresso coffees.
They work beautifully in both automatic bean-to-cup machines and professional grinders for barista espresso machines, and the range offers a variety of roasts and styles.
Individual 1kg bags and larger cases are available, with free UK mainland delivery on orders over £85.
COMPLETE BEAN-TO-CUP SETUPS
Starting a new café or looking for a complete automatic coffee setup?
Our bean-to-cup coffee machine package deals bring the machine together with useful supporting coffee equipment and supplies, with inclusions varying by package — such as milk fridges, coffee beans, cleaning products, water filters, installation and training.
Package deals can save hundreds of pounds compared with buying the included items separately, with selected packages saving more than £1,000 where current individual prices support it.
New-machine packages can be bought outright or leased through finance, giving you a straightforward way to get the complete setup together.

Choosing a Commercial Espresso Machine for Your Café
1, 2 OR 3 GROUP?
1-group espresso machines
Compact 1-group machines make sense where space is tight or espresso demand is relatively modest.
You still get a proper commercial espresso setup without giving over a large section of the counter to the machine.
2-group espresso machines
For many cafés and coffee shops, the 2-group espresso machine is the natural middle ground.
It gives your team more working capacity during busy periods while remaining manageable behind a typical café counter.
3-group espresso machines
Where coffee volumes are consistently high and several baristas need to work at once, a larger 3-group machine provides the additional brewing capacity and workspace required.

DON’T FORGET THE GRINDER
With a traditional café setup, the grinder is every bit as important as the espresso machine, if not more so!
StafCo stocks a broad range of professional commercial coffee grinders from brands including Remidag, Eureka and Cunill, covering everything from lower-volume café setups to high-output on-demand grinders built for busy coffee service.
The right grinder gives your baristas consistent dosing, reliable performance and the speed needed to keep drinks moving when the queue starts building.
Remidag Grinders — 3-Year Parts & Labour Warranty
Our Remidag professional grinders come with a free three-year parts and labour warranty as standard.
For a café or coffee shop, where a failed grinder can bring espresso service to a halt, that level of warranty cover says a lot about the confidence behind the equipment.
And when a qualifying Biepi espresso machine, Remidag grinder and knock-out box or waste drawer are purchased together on the same invoice, the Biepi espresso machine also receives three-year parts and labour warranty cover.

Cleaning & Everyday Café Maintenance

We supply cleaning tablets and powders, milk-system cleaners, grinder cleaners, descalers and coffee machine water filters for traditional espresso and bean-to-cup setups.
These might be the less glamorous part of a café setup, but they are vital to keep everything tasting right and working properly.
All orders over £85 get free UK mainland delivery.
What Should You Look for in a Café Coffee Machine?
The best machine is the one that suits what your business needs, not what you want.
Think about:
How many coffees will you serve?
A small cake shop serving occasional coffees has very different requirements from a busy high-street coffee shop.
Who will make the drinks?
A traditional espresso machine works brilliantly with trained staff. If lots of different people need to make consistent drinks quickly, bean-to-cup may make more sense.
What drinks will you offer?
Espresso, Americano, cappuccino, latte, flat white, hot chocolate and other drinks can place different demands on your setup.
How quickly do drinks need to be made?
Think about your busiest period rather than just your average day.
How much space do you have?
Machine width, grinder space, milk refrigeration, knock-out drawers and working space all matter.
What happens as the business grows?
Where practical, choose equipment with enough capacity to cope with the business you expect to have — not just the one you have on opening day.

ℹ️ FAQs About Coffee Machines for Cafés & Coffee Shops
Clear answers to help your café or coffee shop find its perfect coffee machine...
What is the best coffee machine for a café?
There isn’t one machine that is best for every café. Your expected drink volume, menu, available space, staffing and whether you want a traditional barista or an automatic bean-to-cup setup all affect the right choice. StafCo can help you narrow the options down.
What type of coffee machine do most coffee shops use?
Traditional commercial espresso machines are widely used where barista-made coffee is central to the business. Bean-to-cup machines are another option where consistency, speed and ease of use are more important.
New to the world of barista espresso machines? We can give you and your staff training on your new machine after install.
Do I need a traditional espresso machine to open a café?
No. A traditional espresso machine is ideal for a classic barista-led café, but it isn't the only option. Depending on your business, a commercial bean-to-cup machine may be easier to operate and better suited to your requirements.
Do you sell compact espresso machines?
We do! If you still want a 'proper' coffee machine but don't have much counter space available, explore our compact traditional barista espresso machine options. Works the same as the big ones, only they take up less space!
What size coffee machine does my café need?
It depends mainly on how many drinks you expect to make, particularly during your busiest periods. Smaller venues may only need a compact machine, while busier coffee shops may benefit from larger-capacity equipment.
Do I need a separate coffee grinder?
If you choose a traditional espresso machine, yes. A suitable commercial grinder is an essential part of the setup. Bean-to-cup machines have an integrated grinder, so a separate grinder normally isn't required.
Can I buy a complete café coffee machine package?
Yes. We have some great savings with both traditional barista espresso machine package deals and bean-to-cup machine package deals - combining selected machines with complementary equipment and accessories. Some packages also offer substantial savings compared with buying each item separately.
Can I lease a coffee machine for my café?
Commercial coffee machines can be available through leasing as well as outright purchase, depending on the machine and package. Get in touch and we can explain the available options and get your a tailored quote.
Plus, leasing a coffee machine
offers a business some amazing tax benefits.
ℹ️ Find out more about leasing and how it can benefit your business
Do you install office coffee machines?
Yes. We can install and set up your new commercial coffee machine and provide any training you or your team need to get the most from it.
I'm opening my first café and don't know which machine I need. Can you help?
Yes, for sure. Tell us about the type of business you're opening, expected customer numbers and the drinks you want to serve. We'll help you compare the sensible options without making the process unnecessarily complicated.
And we promise; no pressure, no up-selling and no jargon.

Do you supply coffee beans as well as machines?
Yes. StafCo supplies coffee beans, milk fridges, cleaning products, replacement water filters and other everyday coffee supplies as well as a variety of top-brand commercial coffee machines.
I don't want to overspend...what if I don’t know which office coffee machine I need?
Just ask us. We don't sell, we advise. In fact, we've been known to point customers elsewhere if we don't believe we have exactly what they need.
Tell us roughly how many people will use the machine and the type of drinks you want to serve, and we’ll help with the rest.
