Entry pasteuriser
The Carpigiani Pasto 30 XPL heats and cools 15 to 30 L of mix a cycle so it is safe and ready to freeze.

Countertop Carpigiani batch freezers that turn the mix into gelato, one batch at a time. Output runs from 8 to 20 kg an hour on 240 V single phase.
Entry blast freezers
Techfrost blast freezers harden fresh gelato fast, so it holds its texture in the display cabinet.
Italian gelato ingredients
Rubicone gelato kits to start your menu. See all gelato ingredients.

Frequently asked questions
What is in the Entry Artisan Gelato Package?
A pasteuriser, a batch freezer and a blast freezer, with Rubicone gelato kits to start the menu. Our team sizes each machine to your shop and your volumes. For more output, see mid-size gelato equipment.
How much gelato can an entry package make?
The entry batch freezers, the Labo 8-12 XPL P and Labo 14 20 XPL P, make 8 to 20 kg of gelato an hour, in batches of 1.5 to 4 kg. The Pasto 30 XPL pasteurises 15 to 30 L of mix a cycle.
Do I need a pasteuriser?
A pasteuriser heats and cools the mix so it is safe and ready to freeze. Tell us which recipes and mixes you plan to use and our team will confirm the machines you need.
Why add a blast freezer?
Fresh gelato from the batch freezer is soft. A blast freezer hardens it quickly, so it forms small ice crystals and stays smooth and creamy in the display cabinet.
What power do the machines need?
The Labo 8-12 XPL P and Labo 14 20 XPL P run on 240 V single phase with air cooling. The Pasto 30 XPL pasteuriser is 400 V three-phase and water-cooled. We check your site before installation.
When should I move up to the mid-size range?
When the batch freezer runs most of the day, or when you supply more than one shop. The mid-size range starts at 20 kg an hour and goes to 90 kg an hour.
Is training and finance available?
Every order comes with installation and hands-on training from our team. Rent-to-buy, lease and finance options are on the finance page.
