10 Best Office Coffee Machines 2020

A medium office is one with around 10-20 desks. But the bums on seats at those desks could, of course, all have very different tastes, and as things are still on a personal level, they will likely let you know if the coffee is not up to scratch.

So, this machine allows you to load up two different bean varieties, so those who want something light and fruity can be as happy as those who love a bitter dark roast. Or, you can use the same standard beans, and it will dispense two drinks at the same time.

The two ceramic disc grinders will keep things speedy and regular, and you can buy it in mains fill or manual fill versions, so it can be plumbed for continuous water supply if possible.

As a bonus, it can make ristretto, espresso, cappuccino, latte, macchiato, flat whites and more; just pick the choice from the LED touchscreen. So, everybody really can be happy, and it will even clean itself when prompted.

A pod machine is perfect for a small, intimate office of around 5-10 people. Everybody can help themselves, or even bring in their own choice of coffee pod, so you don’t have to load up a lot of beans and force everyone to drink the same thing.

This Nespresso machine will use branded pods or their compatible non-official equivalents, so people can buy these easily accessible capsules or use some from the supermarket if they want to personally keep costs down.

The great thing about this particular machine, however, is that it can allow the user to experiment and craft their own coffee. With technology that allows them to froth any type of milk (including mylks) directly into their cup, they can have that post-lunch treat without too much hassle.

It will even see your workforce through Summer with iced coffee possibilities, and there is a little booklet which gives recipe ideas. The slim shape will also fit in offices which are already feeling a bit cosy.

A large office is seen as anything above 20 desks, but of course, this could go to an infinite number. 

Plus, you may have clients who also need coffees upon being welcomed, there may be shift workers, and you may even have a shared kitchen amongst a few different offices.

So this machine, which can make around 156 cups per hour, is ideal. You can brew and hold up to 6 litres of fresh coffee at a single time, which is about 50 cups, and you also have access to an additional 28 litres of hot water per hour for anyone who prefers tea or instant.

Two separate pouring taps for coffee and water means access is simple for both, and people can even make their coffee weaker or just opt for a single shot. When the coffee runs out, the last person to have a cup can brew up ready for the next lot – it is pretty quick to get things ready.

As a bonus, it is really cost-effective, so even if you have an office full of coffee guzzlers, you can let them have their breaks in peace.

A touch screen interface which is nice and self-explanatory for even the least tech-savvy to get to grips with, and a strong build which should mean it is a good investment piece for years to come.

This machine can produce two cups of coffee simultaneously and give 200 cups of coffee per day making it ideal for busy offices or workplaces with visitors or clients. It makes proper Americano drinks, with just the right strength and length, or Latte Macchiatos and Cappuccinos for something a bit more luxurious.

It is mains powered and needs to be plumbed in for a constant refill of water.

Filter coffee machines which can output this huge number of coffees per hour are great for really busy areas where grabbing a coffee has to be a quick affair. 

It can fill a 1.7L jug in just five minutes, so there will never be a long wait, and you can prepare well in advance if the first lot is running out. Dual hot plates mean that both jugs can be kept at the perfect temperature if filled. 

Each jug will hold around 24 coffees, so don’t worry if you don’t think you will need as many as it can actually serve in an hour. You get 50 filter papers with the purchase, so you are good to go but will have to ensure that there is a supply of these as well as coffee over time.

This is a really great machine for an office full of people with different tastes.

Two bean containers allow the user to choose from different blends, so it is good for an office with mixed tastebuds or coffee wishes. They will have no trouble creating creamy milk foam with the automatic LatteCrema System either, and it can also make two milk-based beverages at the same time thanks to the double outlet of the milk carafe.

As well, the display and Coffee Link App allow the user to create new aromas or adjust strengths and aromas with the touch of a few buttons or prepare it from the comfort of their desk so it is ready to collect when they have a second.

The milk container can be taken out and stored in the fridge at the end of the day as well, and a nice 2.1L capacity water container means less fuss with filling. It also self-cleans after every use.

Great for black coffee drinks, this machine can make around 100 cups of coffee per day or just dispense hot water for teas and other hot drinks, which is ideal if you have no access to a sink or kettle.

It can dispense two drinks at the same time and is manual fill so you are flexible with placement. You get 10 drinks specialities with the touch of a button, which includes a good old black coffee, and the coffee temperature and hot water temperature are programmable to two levels.

The bean container and water tank can be locked for security, either when being cleaned or if the machine can’t be used and you’re not sure if the memo has got out. Large selector buttons with pictures on the display screen mean everything is pretty self-explanatory.

With four customisable speciality drinks option, this is a good machine if you want to please everyone across the board but don’t want things to be too complicated.

Auto self-cleaning reduces your workload and keeps everything well maintained. A one-touch dispensing system also means that people won’t spend ages trying to get it to work. The double output will also speed things up if there is a post-lunch rush for a caffeine kick.

Do note that it is only suitable for use with light to medium roast coffee beans, so while this will be fine in the majority of cases, it isn’t good for anyone who may sometimes want a dark roast. It does only use fresh milk for the best-tasting coffee, however.

For offices with plenty of space for a dedicated coffee station, this machine will give its users a full spectrum of tasty beverages.

They can be finished with frothy milk or left black, and the height-adjustable spout will be able to fit tall latte glasses and huge comforting mugs just as easy as an espresso cup. Control is nice and easy with a large easy-to-read screen, and there is a huge 5L water tank.

This tank is manually filled, so not only can it make dozens of coffees before needing to be refilled but the machine can also be placed anywhere. We also love that the milk and foam temperature is adjustable to 10 levels.

This machine has a whole host of extras to help the entire workforce properly get to grips with coffee making.

These features include a milk frother to help perfect cappuccino, indicators for when the coffee is ground and when the drip tray is full, and a stand-alone milk chiller for milk-based drinks. This will give everyone a bit of a boost compared to plain black coffee.

Integrated auto cleaning means less work for everybody, and it will put out enough coffee for a medium office per day. There is also a warning system which will alert you if there is an issue on-screen.
