Technology
VAYHAN Coffee manufacturing is based on the convergence of the best technologies in the world for the instant/ agglomerated coffee manufacturing. The criticality of certain operations on quality is well taken care in the selection, execution and operation of the plant. This project packs in the cumulative experiences in this field from world over and run by a team of highly experienced and trained quality professionals to deliver the products to suit customer needs and profile.
The plant has been designed incorporating the latest technology of instant coffee process to achieve and retain most of the taste & aroma of roast & ground coffee. It has been a challenge to the coffee technologists to manufacture instant coffee matching freshly brewed coffee taste.
Our knowledge and feel of the customers is based on our interactions and understanding over the years of experience and learning, which has given us the ultimate know-how on soluble coffee and the parameters that will ensure ever lasting relationship with customers and consumers.
VCL has specially selected roasting, extraction and aroma recovery technologies that enables VCL to develop and recover ground coffee flavour and add back to instant coffee for an excellent taste.
The manufacturing facility can produce 3600 MT of instant coffee per year in most hygienic environment in both spray dried and agglomerated varieties. The equipment is carefully chosen to ensure that the product is untouched through out the entire production process.
The facility is ISO and HACCP compliant and all its products meet International Standards.
VCL has adopted a facility line where all type of coffee beans can be roasted selectively with profile and controlled roasting for developing the right flavour and taste. With this flexibility, various blends can be prepared keeping in mind the wide consumer tastes and markets across the globe. Apart from the excellent facility, a team of experienced people is put into the operation to maintain the stringent quality and to respond to any consumer needs, on time.
The customer only needs to ask and we can replicate any kind of blend with any kind of specification in our premises, owing to intricate research, in which we take great pride. The result is our ability to produce virtually almost any kind of blend or taste within the two types of soluble coffee, namely Spray Dried & Granulated, in order to suit any specific market requirement.
Coffee in India
Coffee is largely grown in three Southern States of India - namely Karnataka, Tamilnadu and Kerala and in some non-traditional areas of Andhra Pradesh & Orissa and North Eastern Region. Total coffee bean production is in the range of 300,000 MT and Karnataka is the largest contributor. There are two major types of coffee – Arabica & Robusta. Out of the total production, Arabica is approximately 40% and Robusta 60%.
Indian coffee has made recognition in the world map and most of the produce is exported all over. In the last one decade, Indian instant coffee has also made in-roads and exported to all major coffee drinking countries. Approximately 28000 MT of instant coffee is exported from India and Russia is one of the large markets. There are eight instant coffee manufacturing facilities in India as of now and represented even by MNCs. VCL facility is not far from coffee growing regions and very close to a port for easy imports of coffee beans, if any. This gives flexibility to VCL for manufacturing all sorts of blends to cater all types of markets.
