Overview
The Franke A300 is Franke's high-volume commercial super-automatic, engineered for busy cafés, restaurants, and corporate environments serving 150 to 300 drinks daily. Building on the A200 platform, the A300 adds a second milk module enabling simultaneous preparation of two milk drinks, dramatically increasing throughput during peak hours. Franke's iQFlow brewing technology ensures perfect extraction consistency across thousands of drinks by automatically compensating for bean aging, humidity changes, and grinder wear. The dual-hopper system with independent grinders supports automatic bean switching based on recipe selection. A large color touchscreen supports full menu customization including promotional drinks and seasonal specials. The integrated FoamMaster creates 16 distinct foam textures from flat-white microfoam to thick hot chocolate foam. FrankeConnect cloud connectivity provides real-time sales reporting, maintenance scheduling, and multi-machine fleet management. Automatic cleaning programs maintain hygiene standards with minimal staff involvement. The A300 represents the intersection of Swiss engineering precision and commercial hospitality demands.
The Franke A300 comes equipped with PID temperature control for precise brewing, pre-infusion for even extraction. It features a thermoblock boiler system made of stainless steel. The gear pump delivers 15.0 bars of pressure for optimal extraction.
Priced at $12,999, the Franke A300 is designed for passionate enthusiasts and semi-commercial users who accept nothing but the best. As a super-automatic machine, it handles everything from grinding to extraction at the touch of a button — perfect for convenience without sacrificing quality.
In terms of build quality, the Franke A300 is a substantial machine, weighing in at 38.0 kg, manufactured in Switzerland, drawing 3400W of power. With dimensions of 340 x 560 x 750 mm (W×D×H), make sure you have adequate counter space. This machine requires direct plumbing, which provides unlimited water supply but needs professional installation.
