Benchstar Double 12 Litre Granita & Slushy Machine FABIGANI-2S

The Benchstar FABIGANI-2S is a double-bowl granita and slushy machine with two independent 12-litre bowls, so two flavours run at once. Air cooling and a heavy-duty motor and mixing system hold product between -4 and -2C with variable density control, in a stainless steel body that comes apart easily for cleaning. At 650 W it is the most economical machine in this range. Important: the warranty is void unless the mix sits between 13% and 18% sugar and the preventative maintenance program is followed.

Why operators choose the FABIGANI-2S

• Two independent 12 litre bowls — two flavours available at once, which is what drives impulse purchase at a counter
• 650 W draw — the lowest running cost in this granita range, and comfortably within a standard circuit
• Variable product density — adjust the consistency from a soft slush to a firmer granita to suit the mix and the venue
• Holds -4 to -2C — the working band for granita — cold enough to hold texture without freezing solid
• Heavy-duty motor and mixing system — built for the continuous running a slushy machine does all day, every day
• Air cooled — no water connection needed, so siting is a matter of power and clearance only
• Easy to disassemble and clean — bowls and parts come apart for the daily clean this product category demands
• Sugar content must be 13-18% — a genuine operating requirement, not a suggestion — outside that band the warranty is void

Specifications

Venue suitability

The FABIGANI-2S suits service stations, cinemas, food courts, takeaway shops, clubs and pools running slushies as a high-margin counter line. Two bowls is the middle option in this range — but only commit if your mix and maintenance routine can meet the warranty conditions below.

Installation & delivery

Two warranty conditions apply to this machine and both are operational. The sugar content of the mix must sit between 13% and 18%, and the preventative maintenance program must be followed — a low-sugar or diet mix, or a skipped maintenance schedule, voids the warranty. It runs on a standard 240 V supply through a normal 10 A power outlet, so no dedicated circuit and no hard-wiring are needed. It is air cooled, so no water connection is needed, but leave clearance around the unit for airflow. At 59 kg it is a two-person lift into position. Dispatched from our Sydney HQ with partner warehouses in Melbourne, Brisbane, Adelaide and Perth for faster delivery Australia-wide. Backed by a 1-year parts and labour warranty — see our warranty information page for full terms.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Can I run a sugar-free or diet mix in the FABIGANI-2S? A: Not without losing your warranty. Benchstar specifies that the warranty is void if sugar content is outside 13% to 18%. Sugar also controls the freezing point in a granita machine, so a diet mix risks the product freezing solid rather than holding a slush.

Q: What exactly voids the warranty? A: Two things: sugar content outside the 13-18% range, and failure to follow the preventative maintenance program. Both are operational conditions, so they need to be part of your daily and scheduled routines.

Q: How can I check the sugar content of my mix? A: With a refractometer, which reads Brix — the ratio of sugar to product weight. Our REF113 handheld refractometer covers 0 to 32% Brix, which spans the required band.

Q: How many flavours can it hold? A: Two, in two independent 12 litre bowls.

Q: Does it need a water connection? A: No. It is air cooled, so only a power supply and clearance for airflow are needed.

Q: What warranty applies? A: One year parts and labour.
