COMMERCIAL HOT DRINKS VENDING MACHINES

Straightforward self-service hot drinks for workplaces and other business environments, with Vitro instant machines offering coffee, chocolate and tea options.

A commercial hot drinks vending machine is useful where the priority is simple self-service and quick drink preparation rather than a traditional espresso setup. Instant systems can provide a broad drinks menu with relatively little operator involvement, making them a practical option for workplaces, staff areas and other locations where people need to make their own drinks throughout the day.

Our current vending range is built around the Vitro S instant machines: the compact S1 Evo Instant, the higher-capacity S2 Instant and the S3 Fresh Brew Tea.

Instant Drinks Without Overcomplicating the Setup

The Vitro S1 Evo Instant uses four soluble ingredient canisters and is specified for approximately 60 drinks per day. It provides a compact route into commercial hot-drinks vending where demand is relatively modest.

For busier locations, the Vitro S2 Instant is specified at approximately 250 cups per day and also uses four canisters. Its ingredient configuration can provide instant coffee alongside milk and chocolate, with a decaf option available.

The important point is that these machines use instant ingredients rather than freshly ground beans. That keeps this range distinct from our commercial bean to cup coffee machines, which grind coffee beans as part of the drink-making process.

Fresh-Brew Tea Alongside Instant Coffee

The Vitro S3 adds something different to the range: a paperless fresh leaf tea brewing system. Alongside its instant coffee, milk and chocolate options, it can prepare freshly brewed leaf tea from the same machine.

For businesses where tea is a significant part of the drinks offer, that may be more useful than simply adding more coffee choices.

The quoted capacities on these machines are approximate and can vary according to the drinks selected, so expected daily demand and peak use should still be considered when choosing between models.

Azkoyen, the manufacturer behind the Vitro range, has developed professional automatic coffee and vending equipment for a wide range of commercial environments.

Vending or Bean to Cup?

The choice often comes down to what matters most at the location. If the priority is freshly ground coffee, bean to cup is likely to be the more relevant category. If simple operation, instant ingredients and a low-intervention self-service setup are more important, a hot-drinks vending machine may make better sense.

The Coffee Company has supplied commercial drinks equipment since 1994. Browse the three Vitro vending models above for their individual specifications, or speak to us about your expected drink volume and menu if you would like help deciding which type of machine best suits the site.
