Franke Coffee Systems has unveiled the New A line, a new generation of fully automatic coffee machines engineered in Switzerland.
Introduced during the HostMilano 2025 show, the range debuted with two models, the A600 and A800, which share one platform and offer barista-grade quality, straightforward personalization, lower operating costs and reduced environmental impact.
“Premium expectations are rising even as staffing and cost pressures grow,” said Marco Zancolò, CEO, Franke Coffee Systems. “With the New A Line, operators get consistent in-cup quality at scale, true flexibility for dairy and non-dairy menus and simpler day-to-day running. All of this is backed by Swiss engineering. The New A Line is built for today’s realities and ready to evolve with future customer needs.”
Key features
- The iQFlow system dynamically controls the flow rate and timing of the beverage extraction process, ensuring that the full flavor profile is consistently delivered.
- The new FoamMaster further enhances quality by creating rich, undiluted cold and hot foam, minimizing milk waste and working effectively with both dairy and plant-based alternatives.
- The PrecisionTemp enables beverage-specific temperature control so every coffee or tea brews at its ideal setpoint.
- FrankeOS, the New A Line’s digital operating system, supports self-service and served areas: Customer Mode for guests, Operator Mode for staff. Each machine can be factory-connected to the cloud via FrankeConnect, enabling remote setup, over-the-air updates and centralized menu, recipe and price management across sites. To widen choice, the platform supports up to three grinders and two powder hoppers for a broad beverage variety, plus an optional Flavor Station with up to six syrups to meet growing demand for flavored hot and cold drinks.
- The IndividualMilk keeps two fully separated milk lines from container to cup, enabling instant switches between dairy and non-dairy alternatives with zero cross-contamination.
- Building on FrankeOS, the Graphical User Interface (GUI) of the New A Line gives step-by-step staff prompts.
- The IndividualClean is a usage-based cleaning system that monitors beverage output and machine settings by replacing daily routines with targeted hygiene cycles, saving staff time and cleaning product use.
- The Dynamic Spout Light (DLi) signals status at a glance: standby, ready, dispensing, cleaning, warnings and notifications, supporting a clear, guided user experience.
For an elevated look, The New A Line offers increased use of steel elements, matte and satin finishes and a sleek black shade with profiles in onyx, granite and mahogany.
