A consumer that wishes to join a Consumer Group should issue a Group Coordinator Request (https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/A+Guide+To+The+Kafka+Protocol#AGuideToTheKafkaProtocol-GroupCoordinatorRequest)
If no Group Coordinator exists at that time, a new one will be elected by Kafka, and the reply identifies the newly elected coordinator. Hopefully you client library takes care of this for you.
