Morning jolt, liquid energy, or as many Oklahoma City residents also know it, coffee is crucial for a successful work day. In fact more than 60 percent of adults recently surveyed by the National Coffee Associated shared that they had consumed coffee at some point during the previous day. Rather than worrying about how many people drink coffee each day, employers should be more concerned about which types of beverages those individuals drank. Providing only traditional coffee in the break room for 60 percent of adults definitely won\u2019t meet the work day demand for different types of coffee bean-based beverages.<\/p>\n

Current and potential employees have a number of must-have requirements when it comes to their workplace office coffee service<\/a> (OCS) and are willing to go off site to find them if they aren\u2019t available in the break room. Must-have doesn\u2019t mean like-to-have or would-be-nice. Must-have means critical, essential, imperative, indispensable, integral, necessary, needed, required, requisite, or vital. To meet Oklahoma City\u2019s employees\u2019 demands and compete with off-site options, break room benefits including OCS needs to exceed current employee expectations. Keeping employees on site for coffee breaks isn\u2019t the only thing employers should consider.<\/p>\n

Excellent OCS can also be used to meet a variety of expectations among the different generations of your current employees and to recruit new employees. If you\u2019re looking for a way to improve your break room benefits, boost your Oklahoma City break room experience with our top 5 OCS must-haves:<\/p>\n

\n
• Cold brew: It has a smoother taste and lower acidity level than traditional coffee, and is now available almost everywhere.<\/li>\n
• The right combination of brewing equipment: Whether it\u2019s traditional brewing equipment (traditional brewers<\/a>, single-cup brewers, or bean-to-cup brewers), advanced brewing technology or both, provide equipment that will brew an excellent cup of coffee and barista-quality espresso-based beverages.<\/li>\n
• Consider the optimal mix, varieties, and quality of coffee beans as well as a well thought out menu offering teas<\/a> and non-caffeinated hot beverages. Rotate the selections, ask for feedback, and use that feedback to improve your services.<\/li>\n
• Offer sought-after snacks, fresh food, and cold beverages including delicious water from a bottle-less water filtration system.<\/li>\n
