The Fracino Contempo CON2E Dual Fuel is the world's highest-powered LPG espresso machine — a 2-group electronic machine built specifically for mobile catering: coffee vans, trailers, carts, and market stalls. Made in Britain, it delivers unrivalled output of coffee, hot water, and steam wherever you trade, running on LPG gas, mains electricity, or both simultaneously.
Powered by a 14-litre copper boiler with multi-looped elements, the CON2E produces up to 400 espressos or 240 cappuccinos per hour — serious commercial output from a machine designed to go anywhere. Thermosyphonic circulation keeps both group heads at a constant extraction temperature, with individual temperature control per group. Water and steam pressure are independently regulated by solid brass safety valves, and a triple-contact pressure switch ensures reliable, low-maintenance operation throughout service.
The electronic controls deliver four pre-programmed volumetric coffee measures per group, while an automatic water level system — with probe, electronic control unit, and solenoid valve — keeps the machine running smoothly during peak periods. Dual steam wands with separate pressure controls let you froth milk for lattes and cappuccinos with ease.
A genuinely versatile machine: run it on gas alone when off-grid, switch to electric when connected, or use both for maximum power output.
