coffee benefit for you
What is cheaper? Drinking coffee with coffee cups, coffee pads or with fresh coffee in a fully automatic bean machine?
Coffecups
Think of Nespresso when it comes to coffee cups. In this concept, ground coffee with a long shelf life is put in an aluminium capsule (coffee cup). You make your coffee with that. The taste is good but it can be expensive.
Automatic bean machine
With the fully automatic bean machine you can make delicious fresh coffee. When you make coffee, the beans are first ground and a cup of coffee is automatically made from the freshly ground coffee. This is often relatively cheap to use.
The story behind the coffee calculator
More than 10 years ago we ordered our coffee cups from Nespresso. It was October and we saw that we had already ordered €350 worth of coffee that year. We thought that was a lot. On “the back of a beer mat” we calculated that it would be much cheaper for us to work with fresh coffee and buy an albeit more expensive coffee machine. We have been doing that for 10 years now to our complete satisfaction and have already saved more than 1000 euros! We would like to share this insight with you via the coffee calculator.
coffee with fresh beans
The purchase of most automatic bean machines is more expensive. Basic machines start at around 350 euros but the price goes up to over 1000 euros. That seems expensive but grinding fresh beans is much cheaper than buying Nespresso coffee cups or ESE pads. For those who drink more than one cup a day it quickly becomes an economical choice. Of course you can also buy very expensive beans but you should not compare apples with oranges. If you buy expensive coffee beans you should also compare them with the more expensive Nespresso coffee cups or ESE pads.
