Autocrat Coffee & Extracts Purchases Custom State-of-the-Art Extraction System
To meet the demand for coffee extracts, the company has purchased a multi-million dollar custom state-of-the-art extraction system. The addition of this equipment substantially increases volume capacity and gives Autocrat, America’s leading producer of coffee ingredients, a continued advantage in the flavored dairy beverages category that is expected to reach $3 billion by 2006. "We purchased this equipment in response to the demand for our coffee based products,” said Richard M. Field, Jr., Chairman/President. “Our goal with this manufacturing expansion is to continue delivering exceptional quality products that will meet the increasing demands of our customers current and future needs.” Headquartered in Lincoln, Rhode Island, Autocrat develops custom extracts and creates and launches new coffee products. The coffee extracts are made using an all-natural extraction process, and carefully roasted select beans are extracted to their fullest flavor potential. The company offers a wide variety of packaging and flavor options. In the past year, Autocrat has revamped the extract production facility with new roasting and bean transportation process control, renovated the production facility, and built a distribution center to increase space for the custom state-of-the-art extraction system and manufacturing area. |

New York Times:The classic beverage at hot wiener shops — and at most other Rhode Island restaurants — is coffee milk, which is like chocolate milk but is made with coffee syrup. Cynthia Wall, vice president of Autocrat, a coffee producer in the Providence area, traced coffee milk's origins back to the 1930's, when enterprising diner and drugstore operators sweetened leftover coffee grounds with milk and sugar, creating a slurry extract that became as popular with children as hot coffee was with adults.Click here for FULL ARTICLE
