Ordering Coffee
How can I buy your coffee?
We’re 100% online. You can buy all of our coffees on our website with the choice of a subscription (and reduce our carbon footprint with fewer deliveries – it's a win-win) or a one-off purchase.
How does the QClub signup discount work?
You deserve good things, so when you sign up for our QClub you'll receive a one-time 15% discount code to use on your first order. Discount for new customers only.
The code will be sent to your email (used to create your account), which you can then enter when prompted in the basket or at checkout. T&Cs apply. See section 7 below for further info. Sign up here.
How do your subscriptions work?
Coffee should be for all. That's why we've made our subscriptions simple. Select your chosen profile/s, format/s and amount per month, then hit the subscribe button and add to your basket. Easy.
Plus, you'll save 15% off (applies automatically) on all your orders if you subscribe.
Your subscription will begin immediately with following orders delivered to your doorstep on the date of your first order. You can sign in to your account at any time to manage, edit or cancel (in your order management section) your subscription.
When will my subscription coffee arrive?
There's nothing better than coffee deliveries, so we'll dispatch your first order as soon as you checkout. Subscription orders received before midday will be dispatched the same day, then the following day after midday. Our standard delivery service is Royal Mail 48 (3-5 working days).
We'll do our best to let you know if this isn't possible, which may be during busy periods and public holidays.
When will I be charged for my subscription?
You'll be charged the day you sign up, continuing every month on the date of your first order.
How can I pause or cancel my subscription?
Not feeling it? You can pause or cancel at any time. Just head to your account and select ‘manage subscriptions', then choose whatever you want changed. You've got 3 options: ‘only update next order date’; ‘update all future orders based on a selected date’, or ‘pause future orders’. Save your changes, and you're all set.
How can I change my address or card details?
You can change your address from your account. Select ‘view addresses' and choose to edit, delete or add new addresses.
When it comes to your card, you can change it in My Subscriptions.
Scroll to the bottom of your products and select the ‘show details’ button. Select the 'Payment Information’ section to show your current card details and an option to ‘change payment method’. We'll then email you a link to safely change your deets.
Can I send your coffee as a gift?
Give your BFF some Purple love by selecting our coffee as a gift at checkout. Add your message and the lucky recipient’s delivery address, and we’ll do the rest.
Can I buy gift cards?
Not yet! But email us at hello@purplecoffeeco.com and we’ll sort something out.

*Orders placed before 12:30 pm GMT on business days/working days with next-day delivery selected, your order will be shipped on the same day. UK mainland only.

All UK orders dispatched with Royal Mail 24 service will be delivered in 2-3 working days.
All mainland UK orders dispatched with DPD are for next (working) day delivery. Please note: DPD does not deliver on Saturdays.
Will I be charged for delivery?
If you live in the UK and your order is below £30, we'll add a £3.95 delivery charge to your order at checkout.

What is your returns policy?
For full details on our returns policy, please see here.
Coffee & Packaging
What types of coffee can I buy?
We have 4 brewing formats: whole bean, ground, pod and coffee bags.
For whole bean and ground coffee, you can use your brew method of choice: espresso machine, cafetière/filter, moka pot, AeroPress or V60.
When will my coffee be roasted?
We roast as regularly as possible, as you deserve the freshest stuff. Orders are dispatched straight after roasting.
What’s the best brewing method for your coffees?
You can brew whatever way you like. To help you out, we've created step-by-step brewing guides here.
What equipment do I need to enjoy your coffees?
It's really up to you. But if you need some help, you can find our step-by-step brewing guides on the page.
For our whole bean, you will need a grinder (we prefer a burr grinder, tbh) and your coffee brewing equipment of choice. Need more advice? Have a chat with us at hello@purplecoffeeco.com or Whatsapp (message only): +44 7400 023186.
How should I store your coffee?
We'd always suggest drinking it as soon as possible, but you can store it in a cool, dry place – sealed in its pack or an airtight container.
Our extra-special, top-secret step, Aroma50x, protects essential aroma molecules while roasting and packaging our ground coffee. This helps our coffee to stay amazing, so you can enjoy it whenever you want.
Are all your coffees available all year round?
Yes! To be in the know about our product launches, please sign up here.
Where can I drink your coffee?
You can meet us IRL at events throughout the year with our Purple coffee van. You can also hire out our van for private events. Contact us for more info.
Do you sell your coffee wholesale?
Make us your one-stop shop for your business and get in touch here.
What dose of water should I use with your pods?
At Purple, we’re all about a 25g shot of water for an espresso. However, for a longer coffee top with hot water (or the best results), we'd brew two pods one after the other and top with hot water. Nespresso® machines can be programmed to deliver that same dose every time you press the button. Find out more info here.
Are your pods compatible with all machines?
Our pods are compatible with all drop-down Nespresso® original machines, except Nespresso® Vertuo.
Each of our 4 pods magnifies the flavours of each of our coffees for use in these machines.
Is your packaging recyclable?
Most of our packaging is recyclable, but we're always looking to do better.
You can recycle our cardboard packaging along with our coffee bag laminate, ground and whole bean bags that are recyclable at supermarkets. Our aluminium pods are also 100% recyclable with PodBack. Discover more here.
Account & Billing
What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept most payment cards, including credit and debit. If you have any problems, please email us at hello@purplecoffeeco.com, Whatsapp (message only): +44 7400 023186, or call us on 0117 911 1912.
I’ve forgotten my account password, what do I do?
