Description

Di Pacci — Commercial Espresso Machines — USA

Fracino Retro 2 Group — Piston/Lever Espresso Machine

The Retro is Fracino's tribute to the 1950s coffee bar — a manual lever machine in highly polished stainless steel. Pulling the lever drives a piston through the brass-bodied group, giving the barista direct physical control over each shot, a genuinely different experience from a push-button machine.

A 14-liter copper boiler and 130mm group clearance keep it practical for daily commercial use behind the theater, while a triple contact pressure switch and automatic water level system handle the details so the barista can focus on the pull.

Why the Retro

  • Piston/Lever Group — hand-pulled, brass-bodied, direct extraction control.
  • Triple Contact Pressure Switch — keeps boiler pressure controlled and steady.
  • Automatic Water Level System — probe-controlled refill, no guesswork.
  • 130mm Group Clearance — room for taller cups and glasses.
  • Polished Stainless Steel 304 — durable, easy-clean case and cup tray.
  • Easy-Clean Steam Tubes — simpler daily wipe-down and upkeep.

About This Machine

Is this the Dual Fuel version or electric-only?
This listing's specs show a standard electric element with no gas rating, so it's the electric-only Retro. If you need LPG/gas dual-fuel capability, confirm with our team before ordering — Fracino also builds a Dual Fuel version of this lever machine.
Is this the same machine as the Deluxe with Wood version?
Yes — same lever machine, same specs. This standard finish just doesn't include the Deluxe's real wood handles.
How does the piston/lever group work?
Pulling the lever drives a piston through the brass-bodied group, giving the barista direct, physical control over each shot rather than an electronic or button-triggered pump.
Why does it have a lower cups-per-hour rating than other Fracino models?
Manual lever machines are limited by how fast a barista can physically pull the lever for each shot, so throughput runs lower than electronically-dosed machines — that's the tradeoff for hands-on lever extraction.
