Thermoplan acquires Mikafi

Some ideas are too good not to pursue. Mikafi is one such idea: freshly roasted coffee directly where it is enjoyed. A vision that excites, inspires and has the potential to redefine coffee enjoyment.

We are pleased to officially announce: Thermoplan has fully acquired the Mikafi project from the start-up of the same name.

But what is Mikafi?
Mikafi is an innovative, compact tabletop coffee roaster that enables green coffee beans to be freshly roasted directly on site in the café within a few minutes, without any special expertise. With the help of individual roasting profiles, small quantities of signature roasts can be prepared directly at the point of consumption. Thanks to its sophisticated design, the roaster fits perfectly into any café environment.

We were already closely involved in the development as a partner in the past and now we are continuing the vision with all our strength. Our goal is to take Mikafi to the next level and actively shape the future of coffee preparation.

The Mikafi roaster is currently being further developed with a great deal of passion and innovative spirit, in terms of technology, design and functionality. Step by step, we are bringing it to market maturity.

A strategic milestone
With the takeover, we are taking an important step in our corporate strategy: In future, we will offer our customers the entire bean-to-cup journey from a single source - from green coffee and individual roasting to the perfect cappuccino. Mikafi makes this possible.

Our many years of experience as one of the world's leading developers and manufacturers of professional fully automatic coffee machines will be incorporated into the project in a targeted manner. What began as a collaboration is now growing into an integral part of Thermoplan, with the aim of bringing the Mikafi concept to the market in a sustainable way.

A first major milestone is imminent: from October 17 to 21, 2025, we will be presenting the Mikafi roaster live at Host in Milan. Visit us in Hall 8P, Stand B23/C24 and experience Mikafi in action while roasting. We look forward to welcoming many guests!
