Nespresso, Kitchenaid, Map and Saeco make big coffee news while Jura takes the path less travelled.

 

4. Jura F9 updated Jura

Jura’s four millionth automatic coffee machine recently left the factory. This impressive track record makes Jura an expert in large-scale production and provides a guarantee of the quality, reliability and durability of all its products. Liakatos said that Jura is the only manufacturer in the sector to focus exclusively on automatic speciality coffee machines.

Its biggest selling product is the Jura F9 and Liakatos attributes the success to its market-specificity. “The F9 addressed a large gap in the sophisticated Australian coffee market offering a café-style coffee that can be prepared at one touch,” he explained.

 

Sunbeam

Sunbeam has three new products on the market for the Christmas sales period which have been built upon its premise that consumers seek quality and experience but are overwhelmed by choice.

According to Anderson, Sunbeam’s Torino coffee machine and grinder is a true ‘muscle machine’ reminiscent of traditional Italian machines with its design based on the famous E61 group head. It has a manual brewing control handle and steam and hot water arms. The Torino heats water faster with first thermal triple-block technology, extraction pressure gauge, an LCD screen for program and shot clock and customisable functionality. 2.

Sunbeam’s response to consumers who think manual machines are too difficult to operate and opt for the simple option of an automatic machine is the EM5000. This is a milk on board manual espresso with one touch control panel and volumetric control. It has a removable milk reservoir and variable froth control.

Finally, the CM2000 capsule coffee machine is an innovative ‘world-first’ multi-capsule solution, according to Sunbeam with an interchangeable capsule cartridge suitable for Nespresso, Lavazza and Expressi capsules. “Now there is no need to be locked into a coffee manufacturer. You can use the coffee you want, when you want, with colour coded inserts to change capsule systems,” Anderson added.

 

Map Coffee

Map Coffee is set to shake-up the Australian capsule coffee marketplace in its partnership with world leaders in coffee machine manufacturing, Saeco.

“We will be growing the capsule coffee market by providing industry leading coffee extraction technology, insights to satisfy consumer tastes and modern premium machines that complement Australian kitchens,” Tata Global Beverages senior brand manager, Beau Boundy said.

“Saeco was the perfect fit for Map Coffee and Tata Global Beverages as Saeco are global leaders of their craft, and did not have a presence in the portioned coffee market in Australia. So it was a perfect match for both of us.

Bravista updated“We want to support the capsule category by providing a premium offering to consumers and we see our partnership as a real game-changer.

“In 2012, entry-level coffee machines entered the supermarket chains with price points up to 70% cheaper in comparison to electrical stores. Map Coffee is now reinvesting in retailers by providing them with genuine Caffitaly capsules in-store to make additional profit after each machine purchase.

Designed in Italy, the Bravista range of coffee capsule machines has been crafted to compliment the modern kitchen where space is at a premium. Offering convenience and ease-of-use, users can adjust the height of the tray and spout to fit their favourite cup, and even save preferences such as coffee/milk length for added personalisation.

Map Coffee’s Caffitaly capsules deliver a double filtered, eight grams of espresso, in contrast to the 5.5 grams which are often standard.

The Bravista range of coffee capsule machines includes the Bravista Latte+ machine with an integrated 500ml milk carafe to make milk based coffees with one touch. The Bravista Espresso+ machine is a smaller sleek design espresso machine with a separate Saeco milk frother. Both machines feature Saeco’s patented milk frothing system.
