This stylish coffee machine is not meant to be hidden in the kitchen. It is designed to re-energize coffee breaks in your workplace since it can cater to all tastes. You have the option of choosing from different coffee types. Take a call on whether you want to use fresh beans to roast and grind them to your taste or whether you prefer to use roast and ground beans for your machine. Again, you have the option of choosing between non-certified and certified beans. We at Kenco understand our customers and try to budget for every kind of taste and preference. This includes using 100% Arabica beans. 


All the beans for the roast and ground range of Kenco Westminster Medium Roast, Kenco Sustainable Development Medium Dark Roast and Kenco Italia Dark Roast are sourced from Rainforest Alliance Certified™ farms. To earn the Rainforest Alliance Certified™ seal, farms must eliminate the use of the most dangerous pesticides, and reduce water pollution and soil erosion. It is on these farms that Kenco’s Arabica coffee cherries are carefully grown and then harvested once they are fully mature. In consonance with our environmental responsibility we help you meet your sustainable goals. After all, the Ferrara comes with A+ energy rating (EVA EMP protocol).


You don’t have to be restricted to drinking just coffee. You can now enjoy a great cup of tea, made from leaf tea infused in our leaf tea brewer. This eliminates the need for tea bags which end up cluttering up your kitchen. Just take a call on whether you want to take a look at one of the bean-to-cup coffee machines on test or an instant bean-to-cup coffee machine like the K Bar bean-to-cup coffee machine which gives you an option of 16 hot and cold specialty drinks.

Deal with the Demands of the Day To Day Working Environment


There might be thousands of machines but not all of them can perform the same task or achieve the same great taste. The industrial coffee makers of UK differ in style, size, technology and design. You can request for price quotes from the vendors and suppliers. Look for machines that are fully automatic and are latest versions as these will be good for your office and/or restaurant. Compare the price costs and features of each industrial coffee machine. You must look for additional features in the machines such as time display, cup warming surface and adjustable cup sizes. While not absolutely necessary, these extra features can contribute greatly towards making your coffee drinking experience that much more exciting.  

Take some time to learn more about the machine before you finalize the model. You should ensure that you read reviews on the machine from people who have bought it. The most important feature that you should consider when shopping for commercial makers is the size of the machine you need for your business. Industrial machines are made to conserve and only make as much coffee as is needed at one time, many of them brew just one cup at a time. They save time because they have all of the coffee and water is often available right on the coffee pot, eliminating the need to measure water and grounds.

For example, if you are buying a commercial coffee machine for a lounge or break room, simply keeping an eye on the amount of coffee employees are drinking each day is sufficient to get an estimate of the size you will need. Of the commercial coffee makers in UK, the Style 5 combines the very latest technology with the well proven and accepted ‘traditional’ semi-automatic machine format. It has a well earned reputation for reliability and is very easy to use and maintain. With five selections and a staggering capacity of serving 500 in-cup drinks, it is perfect for places where there are numerous customers who need to be served through the day and night such as a hotel foyer or a large corporate office.

An Extensive Range of the Latest Coffee Machines


You want your coffee machine to give you the same quality of hot drinks every time and every day. So, consistency is what wins the day. This is especially true of specialty drinks like cappuccino and latte. The quality of the cappuccino will depend on the quality of the machine. When you source a cappuccino coffee machine in London make sure that you deal with a manufacturer or authorized dealer who can provide you with a solution to your requirements and timescales. You should be able to choose from an extensive range of the latest coffee machines. For example, the Kenco singles hot drinks produce a vast range of coffees from light roast through to dark roast, including Columbian and Carte Noire Espresso. All these coffees are roast and ground, produced from fresh beans.

The advantage of using pre-ground coffee is that you don’t need to pass up on drinks like espresso, cappuccino and mocha even if your coffee machine is not a beans-to-cup model. If you have coffee machines using soluble ingredients it does not mean that the drink produced has to be of a poor quality, quite the opposite in fact. If you use the Kenco range of soluble coffees you can produce a high quality drink, be it black or white or even a specialty drink such as a cappuccino. There are those who will swear that if you really love coffee you should play around with roasting, grinding, and brewing different types of coffee. Each type of bean will bring a whole new flavor into play. 

Remember, the primary difference between a basic espresso coffee machine and a cappuccino coffee machine of UK is that the latter will also have an integral milk foamer, enabling it to produce cappuccino, latte and other milk based drinks which makes it perfect for the office environment. Ideally, your machine should be a combination type which will use instant products as well as using coffee beans, which can either be pre-ground or ground on demand. All in all, your cappuccino coffee machine should be able to give you more than just cappuccino so that you can cater to different tastes from the same machine.
