Other FAEMA Commercial Espresso Machines

The FAEMA commercial espresso machines are the absolute top of the line in the commercial espresso machine industry. The following four lines of FAEMA commercial espresso machines offer unprecedented quality, and will give you many years of heavy use with proper care. All of these commercial espresso machines are fully automatic commercial espresso machines.

The FAEMA E98 Compact A1 is a 1-group fully automatic commercial espresso machine. It was specially designed to have a small footprint to fit into tight spaces if required. It also was designed to fit tall cups. The FAEMA E98 Compact commercial espresso machine features a single steam wand, and comes with the FAEMA specially patented "Cappuccinomatic" feature. The Cappuccinomatic feature allows the FAEMA E98 Compact A1 commercial espresso machine to automatically siphon milk from a milk source, and to automatically make latte or cappuccino with the push of a button.

There is a special "Frigobox" accessory that can keep three liters of milk ice cold, and that can be connected to the FAEMA E98 Compact A1 commercial espresso machine for use by the Cappuccinomatic feature. See the "Accessories" section under our "Commercial Espresso Machine" section to see the Frigobox.

The FAEMA Smart A1 and FAEMA Smart A2 are 1-group and 2-group fully automatic commercial espresso machines, respectively. The FAEMA Smart commercial espresso machines are also made with a fairly small footprint, but not quite as small as the FAEMA E98 Compact. Both FAEMA Smart commercial espresso machines come with two steam wands.

The FAEMA E91 Ambassador A2 and FAEMA E91 Ambassador A3 are 2-group and 3-group fully automatic commercial espresso machines. Both FAEMA E91 Ambassodor commercial espresso machines come with two steam wands. Note that unlike the other FAEMA commercial espresso machines, the FAEMA Ambassador commercial espresso machines come in Black (see pictures).

The FAEMA E91 Ambassador commercial espresso machines feature the special patented adjustable thermal balancing system. The thermal balancing system allows you to set the temperature in each group head independently. This allows you to do extractions at different temperatures for specialty coffee blends so as to optimize the temperature to the blend.

A feature that is available with the FAEMA E91 Ambassador commercial espresso machines is the specially patented "Auto Steam" feature. The Auto Steam feature uses a special microprocessor and sensors within the tip of the steam wand to froth milk or steam milk in a frothing pitcher automatically and perfectly. The Auto Steam feature is an extra feature that can be purchased as part of any FAEMA E91 Ambassador commercial espresso machine. See our "Accessories" section for pricing and ordering information with your E91 Ambassador commercial espresso machine.

The FAEMA E92 Elite A2, the FAEMA E92 Elite A3, and the FAEMA E92 Elite A4 are 2-group, 3-group, and 4-group fully automatic commercial espresso machines, respectively. All three FAEMA E92 Elite commercial espresso machines come with THREE steam wands. Note that the FAEMA E92 Elite commercial espresso machines come in Gray, like all FAEMA commercial espresso machines except the FAEMA E91 Ambassador series.

The FAEMA E92 Elite commercial espresso machines feature the special patented adjustable thermal balancing system. The thermal balancing system allows you to set the temperature in each group head independently. This allows you to do extractions at different temperatures for specialty coffee blends so as to optimize the temperature to the blend.

What You Will Need to Do Before Your Commercial Espresso Machine is Operational?

When your FAEMA commercial espresso machine arrives, it needs to be installed, and if you aren't sure how to use it, you need to be shown how to use a commercial espresso machine. (You will be able to figure it out yourself by reading some of the articles on commercial espresso machines on our site; being shown is merely quicker. We recommend that you read our articles on commercial espresso machines and on running a coffee shop too.) We will install your FAEMA commercial espresso machine for you. The installer will generally provide about an hour of training on your commercial espresso machine as part of the installation.

For us to installation your new commercial espresso machine, your site must be installation-ready. This means that there has to be a high-voltage (208 Volt - 240 Volt) outlet, a water outlet, and a floor drain (as per your local health code) near the commercial espresso machine. Specifically:

• A 208-240 Volt electrical outlet within 3 feet of the commercial espresso machine;
• A water supply line having a 3/8 inch diameter and a shut-off valve, also within 3 feet of the commercial espresso machine;
• Your local board of health will specify the requirements for a floor drain. Usually, they want a floor drain within 3 feet of the commercial espresso machine, but sometimes they will allow for other creative solutions. You have to find out what it required by them, and let us know. If you are putting a FAEMA commercial espresso machine in your professional home pantry, you are not subject to health codes. You may use a bucket as your drain if you would like. If you do, you must remember to drain it.

You must arrange for electricity, water, and a drainage solution with your own electrician and/or plumber. These things must be done prior to the actual installation of your commercial espresso machine. We will be happy to discuss what's required with your plumber or electrician if you aren't sure. If our installer arrives and these things have not been done, he or she will not be able to do the installation, and they will have to make a second trip. You will be billed a "nuissance fee" for this, depending on how far the installer had to come.

The only thing that you need to take care of when you buy a FAEMA commercial espresso machine from us is to provide and electrical hookup, a water supply, and a drain as specified above. If you need to have this work done, you will need to contact your electrician and/or plumber for a price.

Note that a 1 year "parts and labor" warantee comes with your new FAEMA commercial espresso machine. If you would like an extended service contract, we can give you a price after we see the installation.

Other Equipment that You Might Want

Most all coffee shops grind their coffee fresh. We have two models of FAEMA commerial coffee grinders that were made to match the FAEMA commercial espresso machines. Check out the " Commercial Coffee Grinders" section inside our " Commercial Espresso Machines" section for details and prices.

The FAEMA Ambassador and the FAEMA Elite Models of commercial espresso machines can be equipped with the FAEMA special patented "Auto Steam" feature. This is a feature that can measure the temperature and density of the froth in your frothing pitcher, and can provide feedback to the commercial espresso machine so as to froth or steam milk however you have preset it with no human intervention. It is done completely automatically, and the results are always perfect and consistent.

The FAEMA Compact commercial espresso machine is equipped with the FAEMA special "Cappuccinomatic" feature. This allows you to connect a special tube to the steam wand, and run the end of the tube into a milk source. The Cappuccinomatic will siphon the correct amount of milk, and froth or steam it automatically, adding it to your espresso as it is brewed so as to make an automatic cappuccino or a latte.

We have a special "Frigobox" that connects to the Cappuccinomatic. The Frigobox keeps three liters of milk ice cold and available on-demand for use by the Cappuccinomatic. Check out the "Accessories" section inside our "Commercial Espresso Machines" section for details and pricing on the Frigobox.

To provide full service of cappuccino and latte in addition to plain espresso, you will need some standard barista supplies: frothing pitchers, frothing thermometers, tampers, etc. See our "Accessories" section. Depending on your store, you might want real cups, saucers, and spoons. Check out our "Cups & Saucers" section.
