Hot Drinks Vending Machines

'Vending machine' is something of a catch-all term and can include various options from table-top, single-serve tea and coffee machines to free-standing, professional quality bean-to-cup machines. The main options are:

• Single serve hot drinks machines like the Kenco Singles or Flavia machines make a single cup of tea or coffee at a time from a single-serving sachet. Usually free-vend, these machines can be fitted with a coin-operated module. They are suitable for workplaces or meeting rooms where they’ll be making up to 50 cups per day.
• In-cup hot vending machines offer a higher-volume solution for larger workplaces. They come in free-standing and table-top versions and are usually coin-operated but can also be combined with alternative payment methods like tokens, cards or fobs. The tea and coffee is of instant quality and is dispensed in disposable cups. Suitable for 50 – 200+ users depending on the size of the machine. Free-standing machines can also incorporate cold and carbonated water dispense and soup options.
• Bean to cup hot drinks machines use fresh ingredients to produce coffee shop quality teas and coffees. Beans are ground in the machine for deep flavours and rich coffee aromas in espresso, americano, cappuccino and latte varieties. Table top and free-standing versions are available with capacity for up to several hundred users.
