About Machina Coffee Roasters

It all began with an Ex DJ and Coffee professional who bonded over their love for music and this magical caffeinated beverage. It became apparent that the third love the two shared was equipment and that was how Machina coffee as a brand started. As the business meandered through its identity there was always a goal in sight – roasting premium speciality coffee in Edinburgh. This was the direction in which they intended to lead Machina and did so with hard work and resisting the need to invite investors who may have changed the brand’s course. Steve and Michael were inspired by cafe’s they visited while travelling such as Intelligentsia in LA, Gimme Coffee in Brooklyn, Customs in Wellington and Bear Pond in Shimokitazawa. These were places that not only were pioneering coffee roasting but also the service that came with it and the pair knew that this was the blueprint of success.

Coffee Origin

They have a great approach to sourcing which is trying to break away from the conventional wisdom about origin and taste. They look to dig a little deeper into the origins that they source from and uncover farms and producers that may not have been heard of and hold the prestige of the farm next door. This is something that sets Machina apart from roaster next door – showcasing certain unique coffees that you may not see elsewhere.

The Coffee

The Miravalle from Machina Coffee originates from the south of the Huila Region of Colombia. Locally referred to as Nudo de Almaguer which is the group of mountains within the south-central Colombian Andes.
