Acceptance
By accessing coffeebarsetup.com you agree to these terms, our privacy policy and our disclaimer. If you do not agree with any of them, please stop using the site. CoffeeBarSetup.com is published by Cozy River Studios.
What this site is
CoffeeBarSetup.com publishes free calculators, reference charts and researched guidance about home espresso equipment. It is an information site. We do not sell equipment, we do not repair equipment, and we are not an authorised service agent for any manufacturer named here.
All content is general information and is not professional, electrical, appliance-repair, medical or dietary advice. The full statement of what that means, including the electrical, pressure and chemical safety points that apply to espresso machines, is in the disclaimer and forms part of these terms.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Use the site for any unlawful purpose, or in any way that could damage or overload it.
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the site, its servers or its data.
- Scrape, mirror or systematically download the site to republish it, whether as a site, a feed or training material for a commercial model, without written permission.
- Use automated tools in a way that degrades the service for other readers.
- Misrepresent yourself as affiliated with, endorsed by, or writing on behalf of this site.
Quoting a short passage or a single row from a chart with clear attribution and a link back is fine and welcome. Reproducing whole pages, whole tables or the full contents of a build list is not.
Intellectual property
All original text, charts, calculator logic, layout and design on this site are the property of Cozy River Studios and are protected by copyright. Product names, brand names and logos belonging to manufacturers and retailers are the property of their respective owners, and are used here for identification and commentary only. Their appearance on this site does not imply any endorsement, sponsorship or association.
Product images are supplied through the Amazon Product Advertising API and remain the property of Amazon or the respective rights holders.
Calculators and figures
Our calculators run in your browser and are provided as planning aids. They show their formulas and state their assumptions. Results depend entirely on the inputs you supply, and many of the conventions they use, including the 18 to 22 percent extraction window and the 9 bar pressure standard, are widely agreed targets rather than physical laws.
We make no warranty that any result is accurate or fit for a particular purpose. Verify anything consequential before acting on it, and never use a figure from this site as the sole basis for a purchase, a repair or a warranty decision.
Prices, availability and third-party links
Prices and product availability shown here were accurate when the page was compiled and change frequently. Any total in a build list is a planning figure, not a quote. Always confirm the current price and specification on the retailer's own page before ordering.
This site contains affiliate links and links to third-party sites we do not control. We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability or privacy practices of those sites, and a link is not an endorsement of everything found at the destination. Your dealings with any retailer are between you and that retailer. See our affiliate disclosure for how those links work.
Email lists
Where you ask us to email you a build list, you are giving us permission to send you that list and related follow-up messages. Every message includes an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect for all future mail. You may ask us to delete your address at any time through the contact page.
No warranties
The site is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. We do not warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error free, or that any defect will be corrected.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, CoffeeBarSetup.com, Cozy River Studios and their contributors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for any damage to equipment, property or person, arising from your use of this site or from reliance on anything published on it. This includes purchases made through links here and any work performed on equipment.
Changes
We may update the site and these terms at any time. The date at the top reflects the current version, and continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the revised terms. If a provision of these terms is found unenforceable, the remainder continues in force.
