Cartwright Coffee

Working out of Torquay, this is a coffee operation that covers both ends of the trade: the beans themselves and the machines that turn them into something worth drinking. Speciality coffee supply sits alongside espresso equipment, accessories and the sort of practical know-how that tends to come from people who have spent years around the kit. The greeting on the website is simply an offer of help, which reads as fair warning that questions are welcome.

Speciality beans are sourced from around the world and sent out by courier direct to your door, so the home delivery side works wherever you happen to be. Alongside that sit professional espresso machines and quality equipment aimed squarely at the home barista, plus tips and instructional videos if you would rather learn than guess. Worth a look if you have bought the machine and suspect you are not getting the best from it.
