Franke in San Bruno
Franke coffee equipment in San Bruno.
San Bruno's office parks west of the airport and the commercial stretch along El Camino Real run Franke super-automatics for corporate break rooms, and a lot of these buildings date to the 1940s through the 1960s with wiring that was never built for a boiler pulling steady current.
I've caught more than one tripped breaker in San Bruno that looked like a machine failure until we traced it back to an undersized circuit in the wall, so we check the electrical before we condemn a heating element.
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.
- Electrical circuit and heating faults. Older buildings near El Camino Real sometimes run undersized circuits for a Franke boiler's draw. We check the circuit before we condemn a heating element.
- Brew unit jams. Steady office traffic wears the brew unit's seals until the machine jams mid-cycle. We replace the seals and gaskets so it runs clean again.
- Grinder burr replacement. A busy break room chews through a set of burrs faster than most people expect, usually inside a year or two, and the tell is shots that run thin and weak. We swap the burrs and bring the dose back to spec.
Honest repair timing
A repair queue is easier to avoid than to rush.
We pick up the machine in San Bruno, diagnose it on the bench, and return it. Pickup and return are included, and you get the repair quote after diagnosis.
