Musso L4 Consul IMM0004 Ice Cream Machine 3.5kg Batch

The Musso L4 Consul (IMM0004) is a self-contained batch ice cream machine: the compressor is built in, so it freezes the mix as it churns and there is no pre-frozen bowl to plan around. It runs 3.5 kg per batch at up to 12 kg/h, with a 76 rpm stirrer, and it is a floor-standing machine on a standard 240 V outlet.

Why operators choose the IMM0004

• Self-contained - no pre-frozen bowl — the built-in compressor freezes as it churns, so batches run back to back. A machine that needs its bowl pre-frozen gives you one batch and then a wait; this does not
• 3.5 kg per batch, up to 12 kg/h — batch size is what decides how many flavours you can hold, and hourly output is what decides whether you can keep up on a hot Saturday. Both are worth checking against your own service rather than against the machine above or below it
• 76 rpm stirrer — stirrer speed drives how much air goes into the mix and therefore the texture. It is recorded per model across this range and is not the same on every machine
• Runs from a standard 240 V outlet at 1.1 kW — roughly 4.6 A. No three-phase supply, no hard wiring and no switchboard work — which on a dessert counter or in a small gelateria is often the deciding practicality
• Floor-standing on castors, 440 (W) x 850 (H) x 600 (D) — stands at bench height and rolls, so it does not consume any of your prep bench. At 105 kg it is not something you lift
• Capacity corrected from the supplier record — the supplier lists capacity as 3.5 kg/hr on the same line as an hourly production figure of 12 kg/h. Those cannot both be hourly, and every other machine in this range records capacity per batch, so we publish 3.5 kg per batch and have flagged the record

Specifications

Venue suitability

Suited to gelaterias, dessert bars, patisseries, cafes and restaurants making their own gelato, sorbet and ice cream in-house. The two figures to match against your own service are 3.5 kg per batch — how much of one flavour you get in one run — and 12 kg/h, which is what you can actually replace during trade.

Installation & delivery

Allow floor space of 440 (W) x 850 (H) x 600 (D) mm plus working clearance above the lid. Power is a standard 240 V single-phase outlet at 1.1 kW, about 4.6 A — no plumbing, no three-phase supply and no hard wiring. Packed it measures 540 x 680 x 1030 mm and the machine weighs 105 kg, so plan the delivery path and the lift. Dispatched Australia-wide.

The rest of the range: L1 Mini at 0.7 kg per batch and up to 2 kg/h, Stella (L2) at 1.5 L (approx. 1.5 kg) per batch and up to 4.5 kg/h, L3 Giardino at 2.5 kg per batch and up to 8 kg/h, L3R Club at 2.5 kg per batch and up to 8 kg/h.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Does it need a pre-frozen bowl?

No. The compressor is built in and the machine is fully self-contained, so it freezes the mix while it churns and you can run consecutive batches without waiting for anything to re-freeze.

Q: Is the capacity 3.5 kg per batch or per hour?

Per batch. The supplier record reads 3.5 kg/hr, but the same record puts production at up to 12 kg/h, and the other four machines in this range all state capacity per batch. A 3.5 kg/hr capacity on a 12 kg/h machine is not possible, so we read it as a unit error, publish 3.5 kg per batch, and have asked the supplier to correct the record.

Q: How much does it make?

3.5 kg per batch, and up to 12 kg/h of continuous production. Batch size and hourly output are different questions - batch size limits how much of one flavour you get in a run, hourly output is what you can replace across a service.

Q: What power supply does it need?

A standard 240 V single-phase outlet. It draws 1.1 kW, roughly 4.6 A, so it needs no three-phase supply and no hard wiring. As with any refrigeration we would not have it sharing a circuit with other heavy loads.

Q: Which model should I choose?

Work from batch size and hourly output. Across this range they run 0.7 kg and 2 kg/h, 1.5 kg and 4.5 kg/h, 2.5 kg and 8 kg/h on two different builds, and 3.5 kg and 12 kg/h. The L3 Giardino and L3R Club are the same machine in benchtop and floor-standing form, so between those two the choice is about where it lives, not what it makes.

Q: Is it a benchtop or a floor machine?

Floor-standing. It measures 440 (W) x 850 (H) x 600 (D) mm and weighs 105 kg. It stands on the floor at working height, so it does not use up prep bench.

Q: What warranty does it come with?

24 months under the Gold Star term - 2 years parts and 1 year labour. That split matters: in the second year the part is covered and the technician's time is not. Full terms are on our warranty information page.
