Coffee Machine Hygiene: The Office Doesn’t Run a Café

In many offices the coffee maker has a cleaning rota, taped to the fridge and ignored from week two. With an Alnos Vending coffee machine there’s no rota, because the machine’s hygiene isn’t the office’s job.

Who Keeps the Machine Clean

Alnos Vending, under the contract. That covers the Coffee Machine and what happens inside it. The office doesn’t open the machine or wash its parts.

What We Do on a Visit

  • empty the grounds container,
  • empty the waste-water container,
  • clean the brewer and mixers regularly, as the manufacturer’s instructions require,
  • check for leaks.

With a bottled supply, we replace the water and never top up old water.

What We Don’t Describe Here

Cleaning methods, products or the order of steps. That’s a procedure for service, not for the office. We don’t want anyone reaching for a cloth and a screwdriver after reading a guide.

What the Office Can Do

Report it when something looks or smells different, when something drips, or when the machine shows a message. The number is on the label: +48 84 300 10 10, and the email is hello@alnosvending.pl. The area around the machine, the floor and the counter next to it, the office cleans like the rest of the kitchen.

The Cup

The machine hands out a cup through the pickup door (with a lid where lids are used). Nobody reaches deep inside the machine. More in the guide on the cup and lid and in the FAQ.

Write to hello@alnosvending.pl, call +48 84 300 10 10, or fill in a Golden Ticket, the machine inquiry form (not a prize draw). One form, one conversation about your place.

The cleaning rota can come off the fridge. The tape too.
