Hi What kinda of consumer are you using? If you build your custom consumer, you can just let it pickup N messages and store them as a List in the message body.
You can use the aggregator EIP to aggregate N Camel messages into a combined single message. http://camel.apache.org/aggregator2 Take a look at the completionFromBatchConsumer and groupExchanges options as well.
