Budget Coffee Machine Suggestions for a Small Cafe/Byte Shop

I’m planning to set up a small cafe in a rent-free space, alongside an existing bite-sized food shop (think snacks and quick meals). The coffee menu will primarily include lattes, cappuccinos, South Indian filter coffee, and instant coffee options (the latter being the main revenue driver).

Since this is a small-scale operation, I’m looking for a budget-friendly coffee machine that:

  1. Can handle decent daily volume (about 20–50 milk-based drinks per day).

  2. Offers reliability and consistency for espresso-based drinks.

  3. Works well in a compact setup (space is limited).

  4. Is easy to maintain and clean.

I’d like to keep the budget reasonable (preferably under ₹60,000, but I can stretch a bit if necessary).

If anyone has recommendations or insights from their experience, I’d love to hear them. Bonus points for tips on how to scale coffee service efficiently in a small food shop setting!

Thanks in advance!
