Private label coffee roasting is a service where a coffee roaster (like Ublend®) produces high-quality coffee that’s packaged and branded under your own name and logo. It’s the perfect solution for cafés, restaurants, retailers, and hospitality venues who want to offer a unique, custom-branded coffee product — without needing to invest in roasting equipment or in-house expertise. With Ublend®, you get access to expert sourcing, blending, roasting, and packaging — all tailored to your brand, your style, and your customers.

We sure do - Equip Your Café for Success - Without the Upfront Cost ​ Alongside developing your custom coffee blend, we help you access the right commercial espresso equipment to match your café’s needs, pace, and personality. Setting up a café — or upgrading your current setup — comes with big decisions, especially when it comes to equipment. The right espresso machine, grinder, and milk system can make or break your coffee consistency and service flow. But premium equipment usually comes with a premium price tag. ​ At Ublend®, we believe great coffee shouldn’t come with barriers. That’s why we offer our Free-On-Loan Equipment Program — a smart, flexible solution that gives you access to the gear you need without the upfront cost. ​ Learn more

Creating your own custom coffee blend and brand isn’t just possible — it can be incredibly cost-effective, too.

We control every step of the process — from sourcing green coffee to roasting and packing — to deliver consistent, high-quality results. Our green coffee supply is carefully selected from trusted producers, with every batch tested for bean size, weight, and colour consistency before roasting. Roasting is done using advanced, automated equipment to ensure repeatable results, and we regularly cup and quality-check every blend to maintain your flavour profile over time. Whether you’re using a ready-to-go blend or a custom roast, you can count on dependable quality in every batch.

Contact us at sales@ublend.com.au — we’re here to help guide you either way.

Blend Matching Service If you already have a coffee you love — whether it’s your current house blend or a competitor’s offering — we can closely replicate the flavour profile and create a blend that captures the same experience. How We Do It: Sample Evaluation: You send us a sample of your current blend (whole bean or ground). Flavour Profiling: Our roasting team cups and analyses the coffee to understand its body, aroma, acidity, and finish. Blend Recreation: Using our broad range of origins and roast profiles, we craft one or more blends that align with the taste and feel of your original. Feedback Loop: We send you samples to test, tweak if needed, and finalise the match. Why It Works: Our team roasts daily, with access to a wide range of origins and processing styles. We’ve matched blends for cafés, retailers, and even ex-franchise operators looking for continuity with a twist. We can replicate or elevate your existing blend to suit your evolving brand goals. Want to get started? Email us at sales@ublend.com.au and we’ll talk you through the next steps. Ublend® — Your Coffee, Your Brand!

Yes, training for the Perfect Espresso Shot: Why It Matters and How to Get It Right A great coffee starts with a great shot—and perfecting that shot is all about technique, consistency, and training. Whether you're a new barista or a café owner looking to level up your team, investing in proper espresso training can transform your coffee and your customer experience. Why Espresso Training Matters Espresso is the foundation of most café drinks—from lattes to flat whites to long blacks. A well-pulled shot not only tastes better, but it also sets the standard for quality across your entire menu. When every barista on your team knows how to deliver a consistent, flavourful shot, your café builds trust and repeat business.

Nope — most of our customers don’t have any contract or commitment with us at all. We simply roast great coffee, deliver with consistency, and support our partners — and they keep coming back. We believe in earning your business with quality and service, not by locking you in. If you're taking part in our Free-On-Loan Equipment Program, there may be a few reasonable conditions around coffee volume and loan periods — just to make sure the setup works for both of us. But even then, we keep things flexible, transparent, and focused on helping your café succeed.

You’ve probably noticed it — coffee is getting more expensive. Here’s why: 1. Climate Challenges - Unpredictable weather, droughts, and frosts in key growing regions like Brazil and Colombia have affected harvests and reduced global supply. 2. Increased Demand - The world’s drinking more coffee than ever — especially premium arabica — which puts pressure on the already tight supply chain. 3. Rising Green Bean Prices - Raw (green) coffee prices have surged globally, especially for higher-quality beans. 4. Shipping Costs Are Up - Freight and logistics costs remain high, and delays in global shipping networks are pushing up overall delivery costs. 5. Currency Fluctuations - Because coffee is traded in U.S. dollars, a weaker Australian dollar means we pay more to bring it in. 6. Higher Labour Costs at Origin - Wages and production costs are rising in coffee-producing countries, especially where ethical sourcing and sustainability practices are in place. Despite these challenges, Ublend® works hard to keep your pricing fair, your coffee fresh, and your margins strong. That’s why so many cafés are making the switch.
