A cold drink dispenser puts juice, iced tea and soft drink on the counter where customers can see it. Our range includes small single bowl units for a cafe counter up to large multi-bowl models for a breakfast buffet, so you can buy the size that suits your business at its current size, then size up as your business grows. Delivered anywhere in Australia.

A cold beverage dispenser chills the product in the bowl and circulates it, so what comes out of the tap is cold and mixed rather than separated and warm. That suits a breakfast buffet, a takeaway counter or a function bar where juice and iced drinks sell all day. Buying it here means one order to track and one number to call if something goes wrong, instead of chasing several suppliers. Silverchef Rent-Try-Buy can fund the whole package, with the option to upgrade or hand equipment back as things change.

Suppliers call it a few different things. You will see refrigerated drink dispenser, cold drink dispenser machine, commercial cold beverage dispenser, refrigerated beverage dispensers on multi-bowl units, and cold drink dispenser commercial on some listings. Same machine every time. Our commercial refrigerated drink dispensers sit in the wider commercial beverage dispensers range.

Silverchef Rent-Try-Buy is available on refrigeration, so you can rent the unit and buy it later.

These are the top FAQs for Commercial Refrigerated Drink Dispensers

Refrigerated or insulated?

A refrigerated unit actively chills the product, so it holds temperature all day wherever there is a power point. An insulated one has no refrigeration and holds temperature for hours without power, which is what makes it the one that travels.

So for offsite work with no power, insulated beverage storage is the better buy, and for a counter that sells all day the refrigerated unit is.

One bowl or two?

Two bowls let you offer a choice and keep selling while one is being cleaned or refilled. One bowl is cheaper and takes less counter, but every refill is a gap in service.

Multi-bowl units are the norm on breakfast buffets; see the full commercial beverage dispensers range.

What can go in the bowl?

Juice, soft drink, iced tea and similar thin liquids. Anything with pulp, solids or dairy in it depends on the model, so check the listing before you put milk-based product through one.

Frozen product needs a different machine; see commercial slushy machines.

Why does it keep stirring the drink?

To keep the product mixed and evenly chilled, and because moving liquid chills faster than still liquid. It also keeps the display looking live, which sells drinks.

A unit that has stopped circulating is usually telling you the seal or the paddle needs attention.

How often do I clean the bowl?

Daily, stripped down. Sugar syrup in the tap and around the seals ferments quickly, and that is both a flavour and a hygiene problem.

Cleaning products are in commercial kitchen cleaning supplies.

Can it sit outdoors?

Only where the model is rated for it and out of direct sun. Ambient heat is the hardest thing you can ask of a small refrigerated unit, and performance drops well before it fails.

For outdoor service, cold storage behind the bar does more; see commercial bar fridges.

Do I still need an ice machine?

Ice for the glass, separately. The dispenser chills the product but does not make ice, and iced drinks sell on the ice as much as the juice.

See commercial ice machines and commercial ice dispensers.

What else do I need for a self-serve station?

Cups, a bin, a water point and fresh juice if you make it in house.

See disposable cups and dispensers, water dispensers and commercial juicers.
