Minor Figures has today (19 May 2026) announced the launch of its new barista oat bag-in-box solution, designed specifically for high-volume cafés, hospitality operators and automated coffee environments.

The 5L bag-in-box has been approved by automated milk dispensing system provider UberMilk, and is the first plant-based oat solution to receive approval from the brand.

Developed to support modern coffee service, the format helps operators to save time behind the counter, reduce carton waste and improve consistency during busy periods. The solution is designed for contract catering, café groups, universities and TUCO operations, hotels, and vending.

Minor Figures’ reformulated, gluten-free Barista Oat drink has been optimised for coffee performance and tested by UberMilk in Germany across key quality and operational measures. These include foam texture, dispensing consistency and machine performance.

Stuart Forsyth, co-founder and CEO of Minor Figures, said: “We help high-volume cafés reduce oat milk cost per cup and speed up service by replacing cartons with a professional, automation-ready format.  As coffee service continues to evolve, cafés need solutions that help teams move faster, reduce waste and maintain consistency under pressure.”

Forsyth added: “This is another breakthrough innovation for Minor Figures and a huge step forward for plant-based coffee service. Being approved by UberMilk reinforces the quality and performance of the product in professional café environments.”
