Market for pour over coffee makers
I recently walked through a local coffee service company. He has a warehouse full of old coffee makers and a few miscellaneous grinders and coffee equipment. Basically it is collecting dust, and to even sell it he would have to service each machine to see if it even works. I'm interested in helping him out, but I'm not even sure if there is a market for these older used machines. What say ye?

If he's got a Fetco 2031 he wants to get rid of, let me know.

There is certainly a market for some of it, either as working machines or as donor units for service people. The real question would be the best way to communicate what was there to potential customers.

there are alot of office coffee accounts that use pour overs still due to lack of available plumbing.

Most of them used are Bunn or Newco. Pourovers, VPR or VPS, and the Newco are RD3 or RC2.

I didn't mean to insult, and Teresa made it sound like she was just doing dishes before adjusting the OP to clarify. And certainly if just touching the rag while wiping the wand is destroying your hands your solution is WAY too strong.
