Exclusive Coffee Club For Entrepreneurs.

Coffee entrepreneur Travis 'The Coffee Man’ Estes, wants his fellow coffee loving entrepreneurs to have their own digital barista in their home.

Travis, is the Founder of REVIVE Coffee. He’s an expert in beans, machines and coffee recipes. He and his team designed and manufactured the 'Dolce Vita’ digital barista coffee machine and created an exclusive coffee subscription club as an answer to his commercial coffee company going silent for awhile during the pandemic.

Travis started a company in 2014 called Busy Bean which manufactures and supplies specialty coffee and coffee machines to the food industry. He’s one of the largest wholesalers and providers of specialty coffee equipment to large hotels and restaurants. In 2020 he was at the NYC food show when the pandemic hit. Soon after all the food service locations closed. Things were VERY quiet he said, for about 6 weeks. But then, out of nowhere his phone started ringing off the hook with customers and friends of customers working from home, asking him how to get his coffee.

Travis knew he had to create a professional grade digital coffee system for the home, which he said was not easy to do. The home version had to be just as good but under 18 inches high, easy to use, and self cleaning. Within 9 months he and his team had it figured out.

“What’s beautiful about this machine says Travis, is it’s really a digital barista that sits in your house. Push a button it grinds the beans, then presses the beans, then shoots high pressure water through it, and boom perfect cup of coffee every time!"

So does his ‘Dolce Vita’ coffee machine make all those coffee options someone would be able to pick out on the coffee menu boards say at a Starbucks?

The ‘Dolce Vita’ is pre-programed with 20 different coffee drinks but Travis wants you to learn how to program even more and he’ll teach you how once you join his exclusive entrepreneurs coffee club.

"It’s a true espresso machine", he said. "Makes a one shot espresso, or a double, or plain black coffee, or a latte, or a cappuccino - you name it!  You can even program seasonal favorites like pumpkin spice latte etc."

The best part about his machine says Travis, is the consistency of quality. Every day he says will be like waking up in the Four Seasons.

Travis is obviously passionate about coffee and passionate that entrepreneurs now working from home, never have to leave their house to have a total sensory coffee experience. Plus he’s saving die-hard coffee lovers who drive to a store to order their favorite latte ‘schmatte’ or whatever, about 70% off a cup of coffee. ( Have you ever done the math on how much you spend buying cups of coffee every year?)

By the way, coffee is 8X more complex than wine, says Travis. Which is why in addition to manufacturing their own equipment and roasting their own beans (yes they do) Travis and REVIVE brought in a 5 star Executive Chef to come up with new coffee flavor combinations. Believe it or not, the aroma of coffee is a lot more sensory than just the caffeine boost.   

It’s a good next act for Travis “The Coffee Man” Estes whose earliest memory as a child was waking up to the smell of coffee. His parents would set up their coffee maker the night before, and that smell he woke up to every day was anchored in his brain. When he had a chance to get into the coffee business he jumped at it, and he’s been making waves in the business ever since.

REVIVE’s Exclusive Coffee Club For Entrepreneurs includes the purchase of the ‘Dolce Vita’ digital barista machine, a $99 monthly coffee subscription, and a lifetime guarantee. Membership is currently limited to 50 new members a month because the machines are meticulously manufactured in-house at their main location in Charleston, SC. where Travis lives.

Membership is also limited because Travis personally devotes a good amount of time educating his customer members about how to get the best results from his products.

Travis did mention though living in SC now, he’s a NY guy by way of  Brooklyn and Long Island. Funny how many cool entrepreneurs are by way of Brooklyn and Long Island. Maybe it’s in the water.

Travis and I had a good time talking coffee innovation in our podcast conversation here. Enjoy. And find out more about  REVIVE’s Exclusive Coffee Club For Entrepreneurs at BizCoffeeClub.com
