ORDERING, SHIPPING, AND PRE-ORDERS

Everything you need to know about delivery timelines, shipping options, free coffee with purchase, and how pre-orders work.

When will my pre-order ship?

Pre-orders begin shipping early next year. You’ll receive tracking as soon as your machine leaves our workshop. Cancel anytime before shipping with no penalty.

Can I update my shipping address after ordering?

Yes, as long as the order has not shipped. Contact us and we’ll update it.

Where do you ship?

We ship throughout the continental U.S. International shipping is available; rates and times are calculated at checkout.

Which carrier do you use?

We ship with all major carriers including UPS, Fedex, DHL. All shipments include tracking. Insurance is optional.

How long does it take to receive my machine?

Standard machines ($675) will ship within 24 hours as long as they're in stock. Special Edition or fully custom machines will usually be ready to ship in 7-14 business days depending on finish and configuration. Ultra-Custom builds may require additional time.

RETURNS, EXCHANGES AND WARRANTY

Our policies for returns, exchanges, warranty coverage, and what qualifies under the 45-Day Love It or Return It promise.

45-Day “Love It or Return It” Promise

Try your Milton machine for 45 days. If you don’t love it, return it in like-new condition for a full refund.

Which machines qualify for the 45-day return policy?

Machines purchased from the “Buy a Machine” category - our standard, pre configured Line1 models or special edition machines qualify for a full refund within 45 days if returned in perfect, like-new condition with all original packaging. Machines built in the "Build a Machine" configurator do not qualify, as they're built specifically to your preferences, and cannot be restocked.

Do custom-built machines qualify?

Fully customized Line1 machines created through the “Build a Machine” configurator are considered final sale. These custom builds are not eligible for the 45-day “Love It or Return It” promise.

Do I pay return shipping?

No. We provide a prepaid return label for eligible returns.

Can I exchange for a different finish?

Yes. Like-new machines may be exchanged for another finish.

What is covered under the Warranty?

All hardware, electronics, and functionality under normal use, for the lifetime of the original owner.

What is not covered under the Warranty?

Accidental damage, misuse, unauthorized repairs, or severe physical impact.

FREE COFFEE & SUBSCRIPTIONS

How our flexible subscription service works, who qualifies for discounts, and how to customize, pause, or manage your delivery schedule.

Do I get free pods when I buy a machine?

Yes. Every Line1 purchase includes 3 free boxes of specialty pods of your choice. Simply add up to 3 boxes to your cart and an automatic $24.00 credit ($8 per box) will apply at checkout. Any boxes beyond the first 3 will be charged normally.

If I return my machine, do I return the free pods?

No. They’re yours to keep. The machine refund is issued normally as long as it meets the return criteria.

Do I get anything for writing a review?

Yes. Write a review with a photo or video and we will email you a coupon for one free box of pods, shipped free. You must be logged in using the same email used for your purchase.

Does writing a review unlock other benefits?

Yes. Verified reviewers receive 3–12 months of access to 50 percent off subscription pricing.

Who qualifies for 50% off Subscriptions?

Customers who purchased their Milton machine directly from us and leave a review on the website.

Want to know more about our subscription plans?

Our subscription plan is flexible and fully customizable. You can choose monthly, bi-monthly, or quarterly deliveries and mix any roasters or blends you like in each shipment. Subscriptions can be paused, changed, or canceled anytime through your Milton account, and all subscription orders ship free within the U.S. Anyone can subscribe, but non-owners receive standard pricing while Milton machine owners qualify for exclusive discounts.

MACHINE DETAILS & CUSTOMIZATION

A breakdown of where the Line1 is made, how it’s built, what materials are used, and how you can customize or upgrade your machine.

Where is the Line1 made?

Standard machines are manufactured in our certified facility in China. Custom builds are hand-finished in Milton, Georgia with locally sourced materials. All custom builds and special editions are based on our standard machines.

What’s the difference between standard and custom?

Standard models use core finishes (brushed stainless, polished chrome, satin black, or satin nickel, all with the studio wave black hero panels). Custom builds are hand-assembled and tailored to your spec.

How do I customize my machine?

Use the Build a Machine tool to select wood, metal, leather, carbon fiber, and custom paint options. If you're looking for something beyond what we show in the configurator, please inquire - we can usually accommodate special paint colors.

Can I change panels or emblems later?

Yes. Replacement panels and emblems are available in our Accessories category. Installation does require machine disassembly, and therefore is only recommended by consumers with significant hands-on proficiency.

Do you sell replacement parts?

Yes. Drip trays, water tanks, pod bins, and other parts are available in our Spare Parts category.

POD COMPATIBILITY & BREWING

Clear guidance on which capsules work with the Line1, how the BCG system improves performance, and the full range of drinks the machine can make.

What Functions Does the Line1 Machine Have?

Single Espresso, Double Espresso, or Dedicated hot water for Americano coffee, french press, or hot tea.

What pods work with the Line1?

All Nespresso OriginalLine-style capsules, including third-party roasters and specialty brands. Nespresso is a registered trademark of Societe des Produits Nestle S.A. Milton Coffee Co. is not affiliated with or endorsed by Nespresso.

Does it support compostable pods?

Yes. Our BCG System seals and extracts compostable capsules that many machines struggle with.

Can I use reusable stainless steel pods?

Yes. The Line1 performs extremely well with refillable capsules. We recommend a finely ground coffee for use with Espresso systems.

Does it support Vertuo pods?

No. Vertuo capsules use a proprietary barcode system and are not compatible, nor will they fit in the brew chamber.

What is the BCG System?

The BCG System is Milton’s proprietary Brew Chamber Gasket that allows the Line1 to brew every OriginalLine capsule correctly. Nespresso machines rely on a sealing ring built into their own pods, which prevents proper extraction from third-party brands. The BCG System forms a reliable seal on any OriginalLine-style capsule and optimizes pressure, temperature, and timing.

Materials Disclosure: Use of Stainless & Plastic

The Line1 uses a full stainless steel brew path (SUS304) from the moment water enters the brew chamber until it exits the spout. This means no plastic contact in the actual brewing process. Upstream components - including the water tank, lines, and seals - use food-safe, BPA-free plastic and silicone materials that meet global safety standards. Contact us for a complete listing of all internal components and their materials.
