Industrial Coffee Production and the Role of Mixing Machines

Coffee is an integral part of modern life, and this directly influences coffee production, pushing the industry toward solutions that support economies of scale and ensure consistent product quality.

The figures for global coffee consumption speak for themselves. Worldwide consumption is expected to grow by up to 3% by 2025, with a notable consumer shift toward higher-quality, specialized coffees known as specialty coffees (e.g., single-origin, premium-grade beans, flavored espresso blends, etc.).

In the U.S., 2024 marked the first time 45% of adults reported drinking specialty coffee the previous day—an increase of 80% compared to 2011—surpassing those who chose conventional coffee.

Coffee Trends in Greece

The Greek coffee market maintains one of the highest consumption rates globally, as coffee is deeply rooted in everyday Greek culture. Despite the economic turbulence of the 2010s and rising taxes, coffee consumption in Greece remained resilient, continuing on a gradually upward trajectory.

According to Forbes Greece, annual coffee consumption has recently risen to 40,000 tons, nearly double the levels of the early ’90s. Greece ranks among the world’s top coffee-consuming nations, averaging approximately 4 kilograms per person per year!

Most coffee in Greece is consumed at home, while around 40% is enjoyed in cafés and HoReCa establishments. The popularity of coffee capsules for home espresso machines has significantly contributed to this trend, quickly capturing about 10% of retail coffee sales in supermarkets.

Today, one out of every two consumers owns a capsule coffee machine at home!

The Importance of Blending in Coffee Production

Blending coffee with flavors like vanilla, caramel, or spices, and preparing it for different product categories, demands precision to guarantee uniformity and even flavor distribution in every batch. Consistency matters when you want to create a reliable flavor experience. Only then will consumers feel satisfied and choose your product again and again.
