1. Analyse needs
Together with you, we take a close look at your gastronomic concept, your target group and your processes. What variety of drinks do you want? How high is the number of guests? What role does coffee play in your offer? This creates a clear picture of your requirements.
2. Individual advice on site

The right gastronomy coffee machine for every application
Which coffee machine is right for your business? The answer depends on your individual concept. The requirements for a coffee machine in the hotel industry are often different from those in a café or bar. That's why Melitta Professional offers you a broad portfolio of gastro coffee machines – from high-performance fully automatic coffee machines to classic portafilters and modern filter coffee machines.
Coffee machines–
Variety at the touch of a button
Modern fully automatic coffee machines are the first choice in the catering industry when it comes to a large selection of coffee specialities of consistently high quality. They impress with their reliability, speed and ease of use – even with a high number of guests. Our Melitta® Cafina® XT and CT series set standards here and offer you numerous advantages that make your everyday work easier and give your guests a special coffee experience.
- Wide variety of coffee specialties: espresso, cappuccino, latte macchiato, flat white, americano and more
- Milk foam variety with Melitta® TopFoam – different consistencies and temperatures, also for latte art
- Selection of bean, fresh milk and cocoa varieties for individual taste experiences
- Tea water dispensing for maximum flexibility
- Automatic cleaning ("Clean in Place") for maximum hygiene and minimum effort
Whether it's a breakfast buffet in the hotel, coffee to go in the bistro, a meeting break in the conference area or as a highlight in the coffee bar – our fully automatic coffee machines are the ideal solution for every area of application. They impress with their durability, easy maintenance and a modern, space-saving design. In this way, they integrate seamlessly into any gastronomic concept and ensure that you can offer your guests fresh, high-quality coffee at any time.
Semi-automatic portafilter –
Craftsmanship and show
Where coffee preparation is part of the concept and barista competence is required, our semi-automatic portafilters are used. They allow for skilled manual work, manual milk frothing and latte art – a real experience for your guests. Our Cafina® portafilter series also offers an automatic pressure system that takes over the tamping and ensures even results. This is how you combine barista craftsmanship with modern technology.
Filter coffee machines –
Classics for breakfast and banquet
Filter coffee is still in demand in the catering industry – especially in the breakfast and banquet sector. Our professional filter coffee machines brew fresh as needed and avoid long downtimes. This means that you can always offer your guests aromatic, fresh coffee – whether as an accompaniment to breakfast, cakes and pastries or as coffee to go.

Which coffee machine is right for your business?
That depends on your concept. Basically, a wide range of coffee specialties is in demand today, and the first choice for this are professional fully automatic coffee machines, which reliably prepare a wide variety of drinks in top quality at the touch of a button. Beans, fresh milk and cocoa varieties can be varied. Milk foam can be produced in different consistencies and temperatures, even at a separate spout in a barista pot, and tea water can also be dispensed at a separate spout at the same time as the coffee, depending on the performance classes.
If you want to use a trained barista, you prefer to use semi-automatic portafilters, which require a lot of practiced manual work. Where coffee preparation is part of the concept, trained employees are deployed to operate coffee grinders and semi-automatic portafilter espresso machines. Demonstrated handicraft is part of the concept here, including manual milk frothing and barista pot latte art. Our Cafina® portafilter series has an automatic pressure system that relieves the barista of the "tamping" step and guarantees an even result.
Not only the preparation, but also the cleaning requires more effort with semi-automatic concepts. However, you should also take a close look at fully automatic coffee machines and compare how time-consuming daily cleaning actually is. Sometimes brewing groups, spouts or hoses have to be dismantled. We rely on "clean in place" for our fully automatic coffee machines of the Melitta® Cafina® XT and CT series and offer automatic cleaning of the brewing unit and the milk system in a closed system.
Filter coffee is also by no means obsolete, professional filter coffee machines brew fresh as needed and avoid longer waiting times of the coffee. Freshly prepared filter coffee is particularly in demand in the breakfast and banquet business, also as coffee to go or as an accompaniment to pastries and cakes.
