ATTENTION ATTENTION! YOU READ THAT RIGHT!
A blend of 100% Arabica coffee of the highest quality in Capsule. Round and soft, with low acidity and a good body, enveloping and persistent. A coffee that does not disappoint the most refined palates and also attracts people accustomed to full-bodied coffees. A flavor of dried fruit (hazelnuts), vanilla brown sugar and ripe fruit.
FULL DESCRIPTION
We have studied for many months how to create a balanced coffee that is not complicated to drink. A coffee that has all the characteristics of Specialty Coffees, without being as extreme as some of these can be. Equilibrium. We researched many coffees, and we came to the creation of La Dolce Vita, a tribute to Italianness, sweetness and a strong but pleasant flavour.
We used our famous Brazilian Coffee Mantiqueira Rubi Naturale as a base, combining the sweetness of Colombia Huila Lavato from the Cadefi Cooperative and finally the fruity aromatic part of Ethiopia Abyssinia Naturale.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
HOW THE SUBSCRIPTION WORKS
1. Is the machine new or refurbished?
Absolutely new. You will receive a Sjostrand machine (and the milk frother, if included in the plan) in its original packaging, never used before. You are the first to unwrap it.
2. When does the machine become mine?
The machine becomes your exclusive property upon payment of the 12th monthly installment. Until then, it is technically a "rental." From the 13th month onward, the equipment is 100% yours and you will never have to return it.
3. What happens after 12 months? Do I need to do anything?
You don’t need to do anything. The system will automatically recognize that you have completed the term. From the 13th month:
- The machine becomes yours.
- The subscription renews only for the coffee.
- The price automatically drops to €59 per month (instead of €68).
COSTS, RESTRICTIONS, AND WITHDRAWAL
4. Why is there an "Entry Fee"?
The Entry Fee allows us to provide you with high-design equipment (valued over €400-500) without requiring full payment upfront. It’s a small deposit that unlocks the benefit of installment payments and covers setup and insured shipping costs.
5. Is the monthly fee fixed?
Yes. You will always pay €68 per month (or €129 for the 200-capsule plan) for all 12 months. No increases, no surprises. Shipping is always included.
6. Can I cancel the subscription before 12 months?
Yes, but since this is a "Rent-to-Own" contract, early termination involves certain conditions:
- You will need to return all equipment at your own expense, complete with original packaging.
- The initial Entry Fee will not be refunded.
- A €50 handling penalty (as stated in the Terms and Conditions) will be applied for early contract termination.
7. Can I buy the machine outright immediately if I decide to end the plan?
Certainly. If during the year you decide you want to keep the machine but no longer want the coffee subscription, you can exercise the "Early Buyout" option by paying the remaining balance compared to the equipment’s list price. Contact our customer service for the exact calculation.
PRODUCT AND MANAGEMENT
8. What type of coffee will I receive?
You will receive our Signature blend "La Dolce Vita". It is a 100% Arabica Specialty coffee, artisan roasted by Garage Coffee Bros. It has a rounded and sweet flavor profile (hazelnut, chocolate, ripe fruit), designed to please the whole family and perfect for daily espresso.
9. What happens if I drink more (or less) coffee than expected?
If 100 capsules are not enough for you, you can upgrade to the "Family & Office" plan with 200 capsules directly from your reserved area, or purchase extra packs in our shop.
10. What if the machine breaks?
For all 12 months of the contract, the machine is covered by an official warranty. If the fault is due to manufacturing defects, repair or replacement is completely on us.
Note: The warranty does not cover accidental damage (e.g., drops) or damage resulting from lack of maintenance (e.g., failure to descale). We recommend treating it well: it’s about to become yours!
11. I already have a capsule machine, why would I want this one?
Because the Sjostrand is not a disposable plastic machine. It is a stainless steel design piece, built to last for years and repairable. Also, the high-pressure system (19 bar) extracts our Specialty coffee in a way that is clearly superior to cheap machines.
