La Cimbali - S-Lite Super Automatic Espresso Machine

This is your winner with the optional milk fridge. I’ve used its close relative the s20 and it produces great lattes and decent enough espresso to please the majority of crowds. Any bean to cup machine is going to be light on the features that allow you to dial-in anytime you change a bean. So you’re not always getting the nuances of different origins or anything like that. But you’re in an office! You’re not going to need to do anything but satisfy the majority of the people. This machine will get the job done for you and provide good lattes with fresh milk as opposed to that powdered crap that you get from most latte machines in a commercial setting like an office. https://tmwardcoffee.com/collections/commercial-espresso-machines/products/la-cimbali-s-lite-super-automatic-espresso-machine And it’s in your budget

We bought an espresso machine and a grinder for our office. La Cimbali. About 40 espressos a day. We put short videos on youtube about how to prepare espresso and lattes: quantities and durations. It is working pretty well. No big mess. We should add a short video about cleaning as well 😉. The surprise was the descaling, it is expensive. But I guess with an automatic you have that as well.
