Carpigiani Ready 20/30: pasteurise, age and batch freeze gelato in one machine

Ready completes the entire gelato production process in one floor-standing machine: pasteurisation, ageing and freezing. It processes both hot and cold mixes in the same cylinder, so you need one machine instead of two.

Water Filling doses the exact amount of water for recipes and cleaning, and Hard-O-Tronic® lets you set and adjust the consistency of every batch.

Technology & features

What the Ready 20 30 WF 400/50/3 Water does for you

23 features in 5 groups. The tabs change by themselves until you choose one.

  • Hard-O-Tronic®

    The LCD continuously shows programmed and actual gelato consistency; arrow buttons let the operator adjust to their ideal texture.

    About Hard-O-Tronic® →

  • POM Beater

    No central shaft and cold-resistant POM blades allow full extraction; self-adjusting scrapers keep the cylinder clean and efficient.

    About High-efficiency beaters →

  • Post Cooling

    Injects cold into the gelato as it exits the cylinder to keep its consistency.

    About Post Cooling →
