Simple from start to finish

Specialist knowledge, not guesswork
School of Espresso works alongside Fix My Coffee Machine, our specialist Sage repair workshop in Bristol.
We spend our working days around Sage machines — repairing them, servicing them and understanding what tends to go wrong. That real-world knowledge gives us a much better starting point when assessing your trade-in.
And when it comes to the replacement, our job isn't to push you into the newest machine. It's to help you choose the machine that better fits the way you want to make coffee now.
What does better look like for you?
A good upgrade isn't automatically more automated or more expensive. It should make your coffee routine better for you.
For people who want more involvement in grinding, dosing, extraction and dialling in their espresso.
For people who still want great coffee but would rather have more help with the repeatable parts of the process.
For people who want a smoother start-to-finish workflow without giving up the quality of a proper home espresso setup.
A second life where possible
A trade-in is about more than clearing space on the kitchen counter. Where it makes sense, we look for useful life beyond the machine's first owner.
Machines that are suitable to save can be assessed for repair rather than simply written off.
Suitable machines may be prepared for another owner and a useful second chapter.
Serviceable components can help keep other machines running when appropriate.
Anything that can't be economically reused can be handled responsibly rather than treated as ordinary waste.
Good to know
Yes. A Sage doesn't have to be fully working to be considered. The value depends on the model, its condition and the machine you're looking to purchase next.
There isn't one fixed value for every model. We review trade-ins individually based on the machine, its condition and your intended replacement, then come back to you with a personalised offer.
Yes. You don't need to be local to Bristol. Once your trade-in is agreed, we'll give you the information you need to send your machine to us safely.
Yes. If you're local, you can bring your machine to School of Espresso in Bristol and speak to the team in person.
That's completely fine. Tell us what you like and dislike about your current setup and we can help you narrow down the right direction — whether you want more control, more guidance or simply less faff.
We'll check the machine against the information you provided. If anything material changes the valuation, we'll contact you before the trade-in credit is finalised.
