Little Gem

Fracino’s Little Gem is an inspirational cappuccino
coffee machine, specially designed to meet the needs
of smaller venues. The Little Gem is a versatile, portable, commercial hand-fill machine that produces the finest coffee with no installation requirements other than a
13 amp power socket.

Little Gem coffee machines are either semi-automatic
or electronically controlled and have one group for
coffee making, a hot water facility and a steam tube
for frothing milk.

The semi-automatic machine is operated by an illuminated rocker switch so the user can control the amount of coffee being dispensed into the cup. The electronically controlled model has an attractive silver bean-shaped touch pad
with four accurately pre-programmed coffee measures
and an override option.

The Little Gem has stainless steel panels and a metallic black chassis as standard. The colour of the chassis can be customised to suit individual requirements.
