ActiveChill
Intelligent cooling for premium iced coffee preparation
Delivering premium iced coffee consistently is a challenge when quality depends on manual preparation. ActiveChill simplifies the process by cooling freshly brewed coffee during dispensing, helping preserve flavor, reduce dilution, and improve consistency from cup to cup.
Pouring hot coffee straight over ice compromises the drinking experience — the ice melts fast, flavor gets diluted, and quality varies from cup to cup.
ActiveChill solves this. By cooling freshly brewed coffee immediately after extraction, it helps preserve aroma and taste while reducing how quickly the ice melts. The result is a richer, more consistent iced coffee experience — freshly brewed, rapidly chilled, ready to serve.
Behind the technology
ActiveChill cools freshly brewed coffee from 88–92°C down to 35–40°C during dispensing, so it reaches the ice cubes already chilled after the operator has added them to the cup. Cooling coffee right after extraction helps preserve aroma and flavor while cutting down on rapid ice melt. Built directly into the machine and paired with Franke's iQFlow™ technology, ActiveChill supports consistent premium beverage preparation with minimal manual effort.
Step 1
Fresh coffee is brewed at 88–92°C. During extraction, Franke's iQFlow™ technology continuously controls the process to ensure consistent quality, flavor, and aroma in every cup.
Step 2
As the coffee passes through ActiveChill, it's cooled from 88–92°C down to 35–40°C within the machine while being dispensed.
Step 3
The operator places ice cubes into the cup before dispensing. The coffee reaches the ice already chilled, preserving aroma and flavor while limiting ice melt and dilution.
Step 4
Enjoy a refreshing iced coffee with balanced taste and consistent quality in every cup.
