Why Lease A Commercial Coffee Machine?
Investing in commercial coffee equipment can feel like a big upfront decision.
• Large capital outlay
• Budget constraints across departments
• Delays in upgrading outdated machines
• Pressure to justify ROI before investing
For many businesses, this leads to sticking with unreliable equipment — or delaying a decision that impacts customer experience and revenue.
A bean-to-cup coffee machine lease removes that barrier.

Example from a Leasing Partner
Here at 86 Degrees Coffee, we recognise that not all businesses are willing, or able, to invest capital expenditure in new coffee machines. That’s why we’ve joined forces with Shire Leasing, one of the UK’s top finance companies, to offer a solution.
Our partnership enables our customers to obtain the equipment they need, while being able to spread the cost across affordable repayments with lease finance.
What is lease finance?
Lease finance provides businesses with the opportunity to acquire business critical equipment, without requiring significant capital investment.
Unlike outright purchases, where businesses pay the full order value to the equipment supplier, lease finance involves pre-agreed rental payments made over an agreed period (usually between two to five years) to utilise the equipment.
This approach enables businesses to spread the cost of the equipment over time, allowing them to preserve cash flow and allocate funds for other essential business needs.
- Finance specialists with over 30 years of experience.
- Highly competitive finance packages.
- Industry leading acceptance rates.
- Finance available for a wide range of business types and sizes.

Lease A Commercial Coffee Machine - FAQs

- Solutions are implemented quickly, before staff, customer, or client complaints.

At 86 Degrees Coffee, we don’t just provide the machine and lease. We can also maintain your machine, supply spare parts, and stock the best coffee beans and ingredients. Contact us today to learn more.
How Much Does A Commercial Coffee Machine Cost?
When comparing commercial coffee machines, the headline price is only one part of the overall package. A machine needs a Service Plan, warranty, ongoing support, and ingredient consistency to deliver reliable performance and great‑tasting drinks every day.
With 86 Degrees Coffee, every LUA machine includes ConnectMe remote diagnostics, allowing us to minimise downtime, predict issues before they arise, and optimise drink quality through precise configuration. Our prices are as follows:
LUA Ultimate Package: £8,650 + VAT
LUA Ultimate Package with Contactless Payments installed and tested: £9,650 + VAT
These prices include installation, configuration to match your chosen drink sizes, testing, and the support needed to keep your machine performing at its best.
How Do I Compare Coffee Machine Prices?
If customers compare only the machine cost with competitors, they’re not comparing like‑for‑like. A coffee machine cannot run by itself; it needs a care package, ingredients, diagnostics, and support from a trusted partner.
Our packages include everything required to operate a reliable, profitable coffee solution from Day 1.
What Is A Bean-To-Cup Coffee Machine?
A bean-to-cup machine is an automatic coffee system that grinds fresh beans on demand, brews the coffee, and prepares milk (usually dehydrated fresh milk) to create high-quality drinks. From espressos and Americanos to lattes and cappuccinos, all it takes is the touch of a button.
Many models also offer hot water functions and non-coffee options, such as hot chocolate, ensuring there is something for everyone.
Our flagship machine, the Lua by de Jong Duke, is easy to use, with minimal maintenance requirements, making it ideal for busy workplaces, pubs, and restaurants.
How Often Do I Need To Clean A Bean-To-Cup Coffee Machine?
Your bean-to-cup coffee machine performs better and lasts longer with appropriate care and cleaning. Here are our recommendations:
- Daily: Empty drip tray and grounds container, rinse milk system (if used), and wipe brew outlet.
- Weekly: Wash removable parts and run a cleaning cycle using cleaning tablets/solution recommended by the manufacturer; clean the brewer unit if removable.
What Happens At The End Of My Lease Term?
At the end of your fixed term, Title of Ownership is transferred from our trusted finance partner, Shire Leasing, to 86 Degrees Coffee Ltd. Instead of pushing you into buying another machine, we do something different – we review your coffee operations, understand your current needs, and present tailored options to future‑proof your setup.
This may include passing ownership of the machine back to you. That is our Unique Promise.
Many businesses have used this flexibility to evolve their coffee offering.
One customer moved their existing machine to the bar (a lower-footfall area) and took out a new lease for another Lua to support their main breakfast service area. Another customer increased capacity by running two machines side‑by‑side, ensuring fast service during busy periods.
In both cases, ownership of the original machine was passed back to them, allowing them to lease a new machine without waste or unnecessary cost.
What Is The ROI On Leasing A Lua Machine?
Businesses leasing a Lua commercial coffee machine have seen a full return on investment (total lease cost) in as little as 6 months.
This rapid ROI is driven by increased drink sales, reduced downtime, and consistent performance.
