Carimali Optima Ultra Fresh Milk Commercial Bean-to-Cup Coffee Machine

The Carimali Optima Ultra is a high-capacity commercial fresh-milk bean-to-cup coffee machine built for premium self-service, with a 10-inch touchscreen and capacity for up to 400 drinks per day.

Designed for hotels, workplaces, hospitality venues, lounges and busy self-service coffee points, the Optima Ultra combines freshly ground coffee with Carimali's CARImilk fresh-milk technology to deliver a wide menu of drinks automatically.

It's a significant step up in capacity from the Armonia range, making it particularly well suited to sites where self-service coffee is expected to handle sustained demand throughout the day.

Please note: the milk fridge shown in some product images is not included with the machine-only purchase. A compatible milk fridge is available separately, or included with the complete Carimali Optima Ultra package deal.

High-Volume Commercial Self-Service Coffee

Carimali designed the Optima Ultra specifically for premium self-service, with an average daily production of up to 400 drinks.

That makes it particularly suited to commercial environments where coffee demand is too high for a smaller office machine, but straightforward automatic operation is still essential.

Typical locations include:

• Hotel breakfast rooms
• Hotels and hospitality self-service areas
• Large offices and workplaces
• Executive and VIP lounges
• Staff restaurants and canteens
• Conference and meeting facilities
• Restaurants and leisure venues
• High-volume commercial self-service coffee points

CARImilk Fresh-Milk System

The Optima Ultra uses Carimali's CARImilk system to prepare fresh-milk drinks automatically.

It can produce a wide menu of milk-based coffees and even supports foamed cold milk, giving businesses greater flexibility across hot and cold drink menus.

Combined with refrigerated fresh milk, this gives customers the convenience of a fully automatic self-service machine while retaining the flavour and texture advantages of fresh milk.

---

10-Inch Touchscreen

A large 10-inch touchscreen provides a clear, intuitive self-service interface for drink selection.

This makes the Optima Ultra particularly useful in hotels, workplaces and public-facing locations where the machine may be used by many different people throughout the day.

---

Up to 400 Drinks Per Day

Carimali specifies the Optima Ultra for an average daily production of up to 400 drinks.

This puts it firmly into high-volume commercial territory and makes it particularly useful where demand arrives in sustained or concentrated periods – including hotel breakfast service, workplace breaks, conferences and busy hospitality settings.

---

Fast Commercial Grinding

The Optima Ultra uses professional grinders with 64mm flat steel burrs.

Carimali states a grinding performance of approximately 8g in two seconds, helping the machine maintain speed when serving larger numbers of drinks.

The Optima Ultra platform can be configured with up to two 1.3kg bean hoppers, providing useful capacity and flexibility for high-volume sites.

---

Carimali M-Brew Technology

The Optima Ultra uses Carimali's heavy-duty M-Brew commercial brewing system.

Designed for high performance and repeated commercial use, M-Brew also uses plug-and-play construction to make cleaning, servicing and maintenance more straightforward.

---

Built for Larger Drinks Too

The Optima Ultra offers a dispensing clearance of approximately 95–195mm.

That gives it useful flexibility across espresso cups, standard coffee cups and taller mugs and takeaway-style drinks.

The internal waste container holds approximately 60 coffee portions before emptying is required.

---

Mains-Fed for Continuous Commercial Use

The Optima Ultra connects directly to the mains water supply, removing the need to continually refill an internal water tank.

For a machine capable of serving up to 400 drinks per day, this makes it substantially more practical for sustained self-service use.

---

Ready for Modern Self-Service Environments

The Optima Ultra supports MDB and Executive communication protocols, commonly used for compatible vending and self-service integrations.

This gives businesses greater scope when building a larger self-service coffee setup. Any payment or vending peripherals required for a particular installation would be specified separately.
