04 / Our story

Richard and Elli grew up in Europe, where espresso is ordinary.

They found a machine that made a real drink without a shop, sketched the idea on a flight home, and brought Bean Machine to St. Petersburg.

The idea of a coffee machine is not new. A good espresso, with no line and no tip, is the point.

06 / Own one

A coffee business without a coffee shop.

One machine. No baristas. No line to manage. The point of the model is margin — without the payroll that usually comes with it. Service and supply stay with Bean Machine, so the site does not need a staffed counter.
