Transparency about how HomeCoffeeStack earns money and how it affects our recommendations.
HomeCoffeeStack participates in affiliate programs. This means we may earn a commission when you click a link on this site and make a purchase from a retailer or brand — at no additional cost to you. The price you pay is exactly the same whether you use our link or not.
We are a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com. We also participate in affiliate programs with specialty coffee retailers and brands, including equipment retailers and coffee subscription services.
It doesn't. We recommend coffee gear and services based on how well they fit into a complete, balanced system — not based on which programs pay the most. We regularly recommend budget options, free methods, and products we earn nothing from when they're the right answer. Affiliate relationships keep the site running; they do not determine our rankings.
Every page that contains affiliate links includes a visible disclosure near the top of the content. If you ever have questions about a specific recommendation or relationship, reach out via the contact information in the site footer.
