In addition to reviewing coffees, Coffee Review evaluates coffee equipment and related consumer products as part of its fee-based service offering. We publish the reviews on our website and social media sites. We also offer optional promotional support as described in more detail below.
Coffee Review, which launched in 1997, pioneered the first-ever 100-point rating system for specialty coffees. Since then, we have become one of the most respected, influential, and widely read coffee publications in the world. Our mission is to help consumers find and enjoy superior quality coffee. To that end, we now offer reviews of coffee equipment and related consumer products.
The equipment and consumer product review process is straightforward. Manufacturers or brand representatives send us a product sample, which the Coffee Review editorial team will objectively evaluate. After testing is complete, we will provide a summary report of our findings. At that point, depending on the results, you can elect to have us write up a more detailed evaluation report to be published on CoffeeReview.com or you can forgo the publication of the results. You can also decide whether you want Coffee Review to promote to the review to our social media followers and email recipients,
The services and fees are based on your needs and your response to the results of our initial testing. The fee for the initial product testing and summary report is $1,250. If you find the summary to be favorable and would like us to write up the full report for publication in the equipment section on CoffeeReview.com, there is an additional fee of $1,250.
If you would like to have Coffee Review share the full report with our social media followers on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, the fee is also $1,250. Finally, if you would like us to send a dedicated sponsored email, the cost, which is normally $1995 per send, is discounted to $1,250.
The total cost of a coffee equipment or consumer product review ranges from $1,250 to $5,000, depending the services you choose, as summarized below:
- Initial testing and summary report – $1,250
- Published product review + $1,250 (optional)
- Social media push + $1,250 (optional)
- Sponsored/dedicated email + $1,250 (optional)
