I need to purchase a coffee machine. In order to get a location (Snack and Pop) I need to supply them with a coffee machine. The location is a sports arena. Estimated coffee sales are only 100-150 cups per month. I would only vend Regular, De-Caf, and Hot Coco. What brand machine would you recommend? Thanks for you input..

Automatic Products or National are good machines. I have a brand new, in the never before used sense, (it has been stored at a warehouse)Automatic Products coffee machine. Not sure when it was manufactured, but it was recently. It has the coin mech, and is Mars VN validated. I haven't looked at it much, but could get to it and give it the thorough once over and give you details. It is in perfect working condition as far as I know. I would be willing to sell it and ship it to you for a total of $1000, $800 for the machine, $200 to ship. I also have other snack and soda machines for sale if you are interested. Could do better on the price depending on where you are. Call me at 970-283-5634 if you are interested and we can talk.

There are several different types of coffee machines, Freeze dried, whole bean grinder, fresh brew, dual cup, what size cup? multi price for condiments, single price. Fresh brew regular with freeze dried decaf, fresh brew reg and fresh brew decaf. They are very high maintenance but decent profit. RMI made the best coffee machine which is AP. Nat'l now has a good coffee machine (if your buying used you really need to know what your buying). It is a machine you need to use extreme caution when buying it is something you would probably not want to buy used from a vendor but completely refurbished location ready!!!! If the machine has been on location it will need all the valves gone through and redone. If the machine had been moved without the tank being drained it can cause lots of problems.Just a thought.

Looks like I'm goint to purchase a refurb AP 211 Freeze Dried Machine. I need to lay out my cost of sales per 8oz cup to figure out my sale price and commission. This account requires commission..I appreciate all the feedback from everyone!
