Hypothetically, if you were opening a cafe this year what would you do? What kind of coffee shop or espresso bar would you set up?
In this video Luke and Jimmy discuss their ideas about exactly what kind of coffee shop they would open if they were to open one. What it would look like, the equipment, staff, budget, the offering and much more.
It's a super interesting chat with neither of them knowing before the video what each other had in mind.
Let us know in the comments what you would do if you were to open a cafe.

Equipment is definitely something that gives me a smile. I've lost count of the number of cafe's sporting a 3 group LM Linea Classic that serves below average coffee but if i see a KB90... Either they have money to burn or more likely.... They actually care about making good coffee at scale. However if i were looking to open a cafe... It'd be hard to justify an imilk setup straight away or even a KB90 unless they're leased or something like that but people should definitely plan for those in future.

@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters 7 ай бұрын

Yes for sure, there is a lot of bling in cafes, leasing helps, and a kb90 does mean businesses

@@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters Hi Jimmy and Luke, I love watching your videos. I’m just an espresso hobbyist who finds it interesting to understand the business side of just about anything coffee too. Your video are very informative and enjoyable to watch at the same time. There’s a small point where you could improve imo and that’s the echo at your location. Sound sound deadening the room would probably be way to much effort but maybe some wearable microphones could help to get rid of most of the echo. It’s no show stopper but it would help (me) to follow the conversation without having to rewind occasionally. My ears aren’t the best anymore and I’m not a native speaker (listener:), so please don’t take it too seriously! Anyway thanks again for making these videos! Edit: oops, I see you’re already wearing microphones. 😬

Thanks for the open discussion! In terms of their cafe ideas though, this seems like the anti-cafe in terms of the Scandinavian/European values for cafe spaces. To me, a cafe should be a community space, and that's what people come back for (besides the good drinks/food)!

@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters 5 ай бұрын

Yes for sure. The biggest challenge is the staffing and the costs to run cafes today. The willingness not to pay for the value staff, products and assets cost to make these profitable and a long term investment

You guys definitely work on my wave length. When I eventually attempt to step into the cafe world, I want to do exactly that. Hole in the wall, providing for the peak hour working class and only opening from 5/5:30 to 12. No one’s gain enough to take that risk to cut the hours for better gain after hours. Always trying to squeeze every minute of the day to hope they sell 3 coffees while paying 2 change overs of staff.

This is exactly what I needed. I'm thinking on opening a small cafe while I don't have any prior experience with coffee making. My goal is to learn barista skills and master a menu at home then go look for a place, do the preparations and eventually open up. I'm so stressed about it but I've had it with working for others who have never appreciated my hard work. Let's see how it goes ✌🏻

17:18 That’s interesting and I agree. A café is much more than the coffee brand but the brand is a rather essential part of it. If a cafe would identify as ‘Artisti’ you guys would have to make sure that everything in that place would not only match your standards but it would also have to be consistent with all ‘Artisti’ cafes (to not confuse or disappoint customers) and that would require a franchise organisation.

I'm curious if there is a ball-park figure or range for a viable margin (percent) on a take-away coffee in Australia, or even just NSW. Clearly there are many factors that determine an actual selling price, but cafes are not charities, so profit has to be part of the price!

@ArtistiCoffeeRoasters Жыл бұрын

300 to 400.% markup on smaller items is a good place to start, you then have to factor in market price as this always plays a role in your pricing as it’s want people will pay. Then adjust accordingly. You have to have a high margin as you can only make so many coffees and you need to pay bills and survive

Portable coffee is a little more costly and less volume we have found. As you drive a lot the costs are higher and you need to get a good number of sales each stop. Is a good model for manufacturing areas with lots of workers that don’t have access to great coffee
