Brambati

History

Francesco Brambati designed milling machines as early as 1928, as a consultant, and founded his company in 1945, Francesco Brambati Costruzioni Meccaniche, for the milling industry. Eighty years in 2025, third generation, subsidiaries in Asia and the United States, a laboratory named Advanced Food Lab.

It is a systems integrator: from the unloading of green coffee to the feeding of packaging machines, cleaning, storage, weighing, blending, roasting, grinding, degassing. The date of entry into coffee is not published, which is a notable gap for a firm of this size. The reference that counts is Lavazza: first trial in 2014, then in February 2022 an order for three new-generation roasters, including a BR 6000 of 600 kg of green coffee per batch, four to five batches per hour.

What it makes

“Traditional” roasters (KAR and KAR-S series) or “highly automated” ones (BR series), each able to receive the in-house ECO afterburner and a catalytic converter. The heating mode is not published. And grinders from 100 to 2,500 kg/h, including for Turkish and Greek coffee, which is rare.

The models

• From 5 to 7
• 5 kg per batch: 20 kg/h) up to 600 kg (3,000 kg/h
• BRM-200 laboratory
• 200 g

What you gain

A single point of contact from the silo to the packaging machine: for an industrial plant, line responsibility is simplified as a result. Two audiences accepted, tradition and automation.

What you lose

The heating mode of the KAR and BR is not published: any claim about their behavior would be invented. The small customer is not the core target.
