How it looks at the point of sale

A self-service coffee station for fuel stations and highway hubs. A hot drink in 30 seconds, around the clock, with no barista. Remote monitoring of the entire network via DrinkX Cloud.

Comparison

Why is standard coffee at a fuel station a problem?

Standard equipment

  • An employee calls in sick — and there’s no coffee
  • Checking on a site means a phone call or a visit
  • A breakdown surfaces only after the customer has already complained
  • Different coffee at every site in the network

The DrinkX platform

  • Self-service: DrinkX runs without a barista or cashier, at any time of day
  • DrinkX Cloud gives you real-time telemetry
  • DrinkX Cloud flags deviations before a breakdown
  • A single standard across the whole network via DrinkX Cloud

On the highway the customer has only a few minutes to stop — and DrinkX won’t keep them waiting.

Solution

Making the fuel-station coffee business manageable

DrinkX is a modular coffee platform. What does it give you?

01

Runs without staff.

The DrinkX self-service station has an order screen and card payment. The customer chooses the drink themselves; the fuel-station employee only refills the ingredients.

02

Is managed remotely.

DrinkX Cloud streams telemetry for every site: coffee and milk stock levels, equipment status, and the number of drinks per shift — with no calls and no visits.

03

Scales to the format.

One base, with options matched to the traffic: from a small city station to a highway hub where the flow never stops. One standard, different configurations.

Configuration

What a solution for fuel stations is built from

Base: three modules, a tap and a screen

ULTRABREWER for coffee and tea, AEROMILK for milk and foam, FLOW-X for water. The modules sit under the counter; above it there is only the X-TAP tap and the X-DESK order screen.

MILKX

MILKX

Multi-milk: up to 10 kinds of milk, plant-based included, through a single AEROMILK module.

SMARTDISPENSER

SMARTDISPENSER

Dispensers for 10 positions: syrups and other liquid add-ins.

Housing and options

With the housing the device becomes a free-standing self-service station; under an existing counter no housing is needed. Plus a fridge, a menu board and lighting.

Every station supports an integrated online cash register and card payment. Body and countertop materials and colors are customized to the specific project.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Is this just instant coffee?

No. DrinkX brews real, high-quality espresso. The ULTRABREWER module activates it with two-stage aeration to the right temperature. The result is quality black coffee.

How does the system run autonomously?

The DrinkX station runs autonomously: the customer chooses a drink on the screen and pays by card. Automatic rinsing runs on a schedule, and DrinkX Cloud flags the need to replenish supplies ahead of time.

How are highway locations serviced?

No puck, no grind control, no group cleaning. Staff refill coffee and milk — DrinkX Cloud shows when it’s due. The instructions cover every step, and no special training is required.

How is the menu updated across the whole network?

Through DrinkX Cloud. A new recipe syncs to every location without an engineer’s visit and without staff briefings at each station.
