Help & Info

Opening a new coffee shop or espresso bar? In an effort to ease the stress of starting up a new business, we have created three levels of recommended lists of specialty coffee smallwares depending on the size of shop you are about to open. Whether you are starting from scratch or just looking for the basic tools needed to make that beautiful latte, we have the products you need. Click on any of the PDF links below to learn more about each list.

Latte Essentials: Looking for the basics? If all you need are the tools to make a variety of drinks, work on your latte art skills and then clean it all up when the day is done, then these pieces are perfect for you. Our Latte Essentials includes all the supplies you will need to make espresso beverages as well as the basics in cleaning supplies for proper maintenance of your machine.

Full Barista Kit: When your needs reach further than the machine or you are looking to open a small to medium size, sit-down cafe, this list is for you. Our Full Barista Kit comes complete with all the bar accessories you need to create special espresso beverages as well as serve them in house in high quality porcelain cups. A full line of cleaning supplies and other countertop items are included to help keep your café clean and well maintained.

Complete Cafe: Starting from scratch? Want everything you could need to make drinks, serve them in house and organize all those extra stir sticks, straws and cup sleeves? You’ll be fully covered with this list that runs the gamut from latte art pitcher to syrup rack to napkin holder.

These lists are suggestions only and not sold online as a package deal. Feel free to add or adjust where you feel necessary or call us with any questions you may have. We are more than happy to work together to create a list that works for you. Our customer service can be contacted at 800.782.6671 or by email at customerservice@espressosupply.com.

Selecting tampers for your machine:  Each machine may have a different portafilter size.  The only way to guarantee the proper fit of the tamper is to measure the inside of  your portafilter insert.  Click here for a list of common portafilter sizes.
