Condition
Used – Superior Condition – Fully Tested & Operational
This commercial frozen-beverage machine has been professionally inspected and tested to confirm refrigeration, freezing, mixing-auger, dispensing-handle, and mechanical operation.
The stainless steel exterior shows scratches, scuffs, water spots, fingerprints, surface marks, and normal cosmetic wear consistent with previous commercial use. The three clear bowls show light clouding, residue, scratches, and prior-use marks.
All three dispensing handles, faucets, bowls, lids, internal mixing augers, drive components, and support feet appear present in the supplied photos.
Three removable flavor labels—Fruit Punch, Bubble Gum, and Strawberry—are attached to the front. These labels can be removed or replaced by the buyer.
The three removable drip trays are not shown and should be considered not included unless physically present at pickup.
Please review all supplied photos for the unit’s exact cosmetic condition.

Description
The Crathco Frosty Dream 3 is a commercial countertop frozen-beverage dispenser designed to produce, mix, display, and dispense three flavors simultaneously.
Each transparent bowl holds approximately 3.2 gallons / 12 liters, providing a combined maximum capacity of approximately 9.6 gallons / 36 liters.
The three bowls operate independently, allowing an operator to prepare different compatible products or flavors at the same time. Suitable applications include granitas, slushies, frozen lemonades, fruit drinks, frozen coffees, frozen mocktails, sherbets, and other approved frozen-beverage mixtures.
This is a manual pourover machine. Prepared product mixture is poured directly into each bowl rather than supplied through an automatic-fill system.
Crathco’s double-mixing design helps continuously circulate the product and reduce ice accumulation, supporting smoother and more consistent finished beverages. Mechanical controls allow independent operation of each bowl and provide normal production and night-mode functions.
The transparent bowls keep the product visible to customers, making the machine suitable for convenience stores, cafés, restaurants, concession stands, hotels, entertainment venues, cafeterias, dessert shops, and high-volume beverage stations.
Crathco’s official Frosty 3 specifications confirm the three independent 3.2-gallon bowls, 9.6-gallon total capacity, mechanical controls, double-mixing system, and 115V electrical configuration.

Product performance depends on the recipe, ambient temperature, starting liquid temperature, sugar concentration, selected consistency, and cleaning condition of the refrigeration and mixing systems.
Product Requirements
Frozen-beverage mixtures require the correct soluble-solids or sugar concentration to freeze and circulate properly.
Mixtures with insufficient sugar may freeze solid and overload the auger or drive system.
Overly concentrated mixtures may remain too soft or fail to reach the intended consistency.
Only products approved for commercial granita or frozen-beverage machines should be used.
Do not place carbonated beverages, solid ice cubes, fruit pits, large fruit pieces, utensils, or foreign objects inside the bowls.

The exact 115V, 60Hz, single-phase, 13.2A specifications are confirmed directly by this unit’s manufacturer plate.
The current official Frosty 3 documentation publishes the same 115V, single-phase, 60Hz, 13.2A electrical configuration and a NEMA 5-20P plug. The physical plug should still be inspected before installation because production revisions or previous service work may differ. Crathco electrical specifications: https://www.crathco.drink-systems.com/us-en/slush-and-frozen-beverage-dispensers/frosty-3-slush-dispenser-2-non-insulated-3.2-g-560517/
Use a dedicated properly grounded commercial circuit. Do not use a household adapter or undersized extension cord.
Refrigeration Specifications
