Franke in Albany
Franke coffee equipment in Albany.
Albany's Solano Avenue corridor and the storefronts along San Pablo Avenue run Franke super-automatics through a lot of daily volume packed into a small city. We keep them going.
We hold Franke A-Line certification, earned June 2026, so your A400 or A800 gets a tech trained hands-on on the brew unit, grinder, and milk system, not someone learning on your machine.
The $150 deposit includes pickup, bench diagnosis, and return and is not credited toward repair. Extra bench time is $150 per hour. Diagnostics can take up to a week; most repairs run 3–4 weeks. That is exactly why we recommend preventive maintenance: a maintained machine does not sit in a repair queue for a month.
Common repairs we do
What we close on the truck.
- Grinder burr and dose service. A busy Solano Avenue counter wears burrs down quickly. We replace and recalibrate so shots stay consistent.
- Brew unit repair. Seals, gaskets, and jams on the A-Line brewer that shut a machine down in the middle of service.
- Milk system fix. FoamMaster lines clog and pumps fail under steady milk-drink volume. We clear the system and rebuild what's worn.
Honest repair timing
A repair queue is easier to avoid than to rush.
We pick up the machine in Albany, diagnose it on the bench, and return it. Pickup and return are included, and you get the repair quote after diagnosis.
