Cafés, offices, hotels, restaurants, schools, gyms and hospitality venues looking to buy and own a commercial coffee machine with expert guidance, installation and ongoing technical support from Redber.
What types of commercial machines do you sell?
What types of commercial machines do you sell?
Bean-to-cup, traditional espresso, bulk/filter brew and instant ingredient machines—plus grinders, boilers and accessories. If you’re unsure, we’ll help you choose based on drinks menu, staff skill and footfall.
How do I size a machine for my business? (cups per day)
How do I size a machine for my business? (cups per day)
A simple rule of thumb:
- Up to ~30 cups/day: compact office/low-volume bean-to-cup
- Up to ~80 cups/day: mid-volume bean-to-cup or small espresso set-up
- Up to ~150 cups/day: high-volume bean-to-cup or 2-group espresso
These brackets are widely used by UK suppliers and are a reliable starting point. We’ll refine with you on a call.
Should I choose bean-to-cup or traditional espresso?
Should I choose bean-to-cup or traditional espresso?
Bean-to-cup: push-button consistency, faster training, ideal for offices or service teams without barista experience.
Traditional espresso: the barista workflow and craft control for cafés/bars; usually paired with a separate grinder and more training.
Plumbed or hand-fill? What’s best?
Plumbed or hand-fill? What’s best?
Plumbed machines suit higher volumes and reduce refilling; hand-fill (tank) models can work for lower volumes or where plumbing isn’t possible. We’ll confirm site water access during your quote.
Do I need water filtration?
Do I need water filtration?
Yes—filtration protects boilers, improves taste and reduces scale-related breakdowns. We’ll specify the correct cartridge and changeover schedule with your machine.
Fresh milk or powdered milk systems?
Fresh milk or powdered milk systems?
Fresh-milk systems deliver the best latte/cappuccino texture and taste; powdered can be acceptable in self-serve or unmanned sites. We supply both and will match to your hygiene and staffing needs.

What power do these machines need?
What power do these machines need?
Many bean-to-cup and 1-group setups run on a standard 13A socket; high-output espresso (e.g., 2–3 group or large boilers) can require higher amperage and a dedicated spur. We’ll confirm electrical requirements on your chosen model before installation.
What space do I need?
What space do I need?
Allow footprint for the machine plus grinder/tamping area (for espresso), milk fridge (for fresh-milk bean-to-cup), knock-out drawer, and safe ventilation/clearances. If counter depth is tight, ask us for compact options.
How often should the machine be cleaned?
How often should the machine be cleaned?
Little-and-often. Purge and wipe the steam wand every use, backflush/rinse groups during and after service (espresso), and run daily cleaning cycles on bean-to-cup machines. This improves flavour and extends life. We’ll provide a cleaning kit and routine.
What about servicing and warranty?
What about servicing and warranty?
We’ll outline a preventative maintenance schedule (e.g., 6–12-month services based on volume) and warranty specifics per brand. Our technical team supports you long-term with parts, labour and remote diagnostics where available.
How long does delivery and installation take?
How long does delivery and installation take?
Lead times vary by brand, colour and spec. In-stock models can be installed quickly; custom colours or specials take longer. We’ll confirm ETA at quote stage and book installation to minimise downtime.
Can you train our team?
Can you train our team?
Yes—introductory barista training (espresso) or operational training (bean-to-cup) is available with every install so your team serves consistent drinks from day one.
Do you supply grinders, boilers and accessories?
Do you supply grinders, boilers and accessories?
Yes—commercial grinders, hot water boilers, filtration, barista tools, cleaning consumables and more, all on the same invoice if required.
