Cairo, 03 May 2026:

Black Knight has unveiled its latest innovation in the specialty coffee sector with the launch of its smart brewing machine, “SAHM,” during its participation in Hotelex Shanghai 2026, one of the world’s leading exhibitions dedicated to hospitality and coffee technology.

The launch of “SAHM” marks a significant step toward redefining the specialty coffee brewing experience by integrating intelligent automation with high-precision extraction technologies, enabling users to achieve professional-quality results with unprecedented ease.

A Technological Innovation Making Specialty Coffee More Accessible

The “SAHM” machine features an advanced barcode recognition system that automatically reads brewing recipes and executes them with precision, including temperature control, pour-over sequences, and extraction patterns tailored to each coffee type. This system ensures a consistent level of quality comparable to that offered by specialty cafés while significantly reducing reliance on manual expertise.

The machine operates at 1,550 watts and includes a 1,500 ml water tank. It offers multiple operating modes, including hot drip coffee, cold brew, hot water, and a self-cleaning function that enhances ease of use and long-term performance sustainability.

A Design That Combines Performance with Contemporary Identity

“SAHM” has been designed with a modern aesthetic that balances elegance and functionality. Materials and finishes were carefully selected to provide a refined visual and tactile experience while seamlessly integrating technical elements into a cohesive design aligned with the latest smart home appliance trends.

The product reflects a growing direction within the global coffee industry toward smart devices capable of simplifying complex brewing processes without compromising extraction quality or the sensory experience.

Enhancing Sustainability and Operational Efficiency

The machine’s precise automation helps reduce coffee waste caused by human error while ensuring optimized water consumption during each brewing cycle, promoting responsible resource use and supporting broader operational sustainability principles.

Promoting Specialty Coffee Culture

Beyond brewing, the machine also offers educational value by helping users better understand the impact of brewing variables such as temperature, time, and extraction. It enables users to develop their own recipes and refine their sensory evaluation of coffee.

Product Availability

Black Knight announced that the “SAHM” machine is now available for pre-order following its official launch, with full commercial availability expected within the next six months amid strong anticipated interest from specialty coffee enthusiasts and professional markets alike.

This innovation represents an extension of Black Knight’s vision to develop advanced technological solutions that make specialty coffee a daily experience that is simple, precise, and accessible to everyone.
