About Us

Loring Smart Roast is being launched across Europe by Smart Roast Europe and is a collaboration between Loring Smart Roast and Steve Penk and Chris Glossop – the driving force behind La Spaziale espresso machines and Mahlkönig in the UK.

“We have always tried to supply the best possible equipment and work with devoted professionals who have a passion for excellence,” says Steve. "We work with like-minded professionals who are dedicated to improve the quality of artisan coffee in the UK."

This is the reason why La Spaziale traditional espresso machines and Mahlkönig grinders have become the preferred choice of discerning baristas who appreciate using the best equipment available.  The Smart Roast will become the preferred choice for roasters looking for great taste and a more environmentally-friendly product.

“For the Smart Roast we’re not only looking for direct customers - we’re also looking for partners in strategic locations across Europe to assist with the sales, distribution and support of the machine,” Steve adds.
