Kanen Coffee

Kanen Coffee has combined an espresso machine workshop and store in Berkeley since 2011. The veteran-owned business develops its retail selection from equipment repair work. Its offering combines buying advice, technical service, and replacement parts for home users and businesses in the Bay Area.

Repairs can begin with a workshop appointment or by shipping the machine. The company services brands such as De’Longhi, Breville, Jura, and Rancilio and publishes help and troubleshooting sections. Bookings distinguish repair drop-off, machine pickup, and buying consultations, giving each visit an organized purpose.

The retail selection includes Lelit MaraX, Bianca, and Victoria models, alongside the Breville Bambino and Barista Express Impress. Listings distinguish boiler configurations, heat exchangers, and machines with built-in grinders. Kanen presents itself as an authorized dealer for brands such as La Marzocco, Lelit, Rancilio, Eureka, and Baratza, within an espresso-focused offering.

Grinders and replacement parts expand the catalog, while coffee also comes from Zolo Coffee, a Berkeley roaster. Training includes latte art and preparation classes, an activity separate from repairs and equipment purchases. Selected machines can be seen in the showroom when their listings indicate availability there.

The company maintains specific services for coffee shops and offices and offers free parking at its Fourth Street address. Its approach connects machine selection with maintenance and learning to use the equipment. The workshop, store, and classes are distinct parts of one activity focused on espresso preparation.
