Why buying the equipment outright wins

No coffee premium
Every pound stays at the clean wholesale rate. The machines never inflate your cost of goods.
No weekly minimum
You buy the coffee you actually use. No take-or-pay floor billing you for hardware on a slow week.
Coffee and equipment stay independent
Scale, pause, or renegotiate either agreement without the other moving. Neither is a hostage.
You own the asset and the residual
Carried as FF&E with a 10–15 year life and eligible for the year-one write-off in Section 2. Under a bundle, the lessor keeps the depreciation and the residual value at term end — here, both are yours.
Lowest cost of ownership
No financing carry, no premium, no minimum. Once you count the residual you keep and the equipment's long service life, owning outright is the lowest true cost of ownership.
A vendor who won't trap you
Coffeehaus recommends the structure that costs you least — not the one that locks in the most revenue.

Coffee pricing & the cost of bundling

What it costs to recover the equipment through your coffee instead of buying it.

Coffeehaus keeps equipment and coffee on separate agreements. There are no minimums. This section shows why that's the better deal for you. In the bundled structures the coffee premium recovers only the equipment's depreciation over five years plus the financing carry. Buy them outright and that residual is yours. Adjust your real coffee volume to see the premium move.

What working with Coffeehaus saves you

The recurring service a hotel normally pays a third party for — covered in the relationship.

Buying the right equipment is half the program; keeping it running is the other half, and it's where most operators quietly bleed labor dollars to an outside service company. With Coffeehaus, the team that designs and installs your bar is the team that maintains it, and the recurring service labor is part of the partnership, not a separate invoice.

No labor chargePreventative maintenance
Scheduled PM visits to keep every station dialed and reliable, you're never billed for the hours.
No labor chargeFilter & water service
We swap filters and service water treatment on schedule; you cover consumables only, never the time.
LocalFactory-trained service
An authorized Mavam dealer based in Detroit, the people who commission your bar maintain it, with no out-of-state OEM queue.
PriorityFlagship response
A down espresso bar at NoMad moves to the front of the line.
HandledWarranty & parts
We administer manufacturer warranty claims and coordinate parts directly, so your team isn't chasing them.
OngoingTraining & dial-in
Refresher training as staff turns over and calibration support as coffees and conditions change.

About these figures. This model is an illustrative planning tool, not an offer, a quote, or tax, legal, or financial advice. Line prices, coffee pricing, and volume estimates are preliminary and subject to final specification and a separate supply agreement; some equipment and service lines are estimates pending final quote. Purchase economics assume the equipment qualifies for and the buyer elects 100% first-year bonus depreciation and has sufficient taxable income to use it; financed-purchase figures assume the buyer owns the equipment, with interest and depreciation deductible. Coffee premiums shown reflect recovering the equipment's depreciation — original cost less an assumed end-of-term residual (a default of 60% on durable hardware, consistent with its 10–15 year serviceable life, and 0% on installation, freight, water treatment, training, tools, and sundries) — plus financing carry, spread across projected coffee volume over the term, with the residual value retained by the external financier. Actual per-pound pricing depends on the final supply agreement. Actual treatment depends on the final structure, the contracting entity, and your own advisors. Coffeehaus keeps equipment and coffee supply on separate agreements; nothing here ties one to the other.
