Frequently Asked Questions
Any advantage to using a 4-spout Flo-Smart instead of a 2-spout model?
We suggest using the 4-tap version. This setup allows for two dedicated taps for milk, a cold brew coffee from the third tap, and a mixed or signature beverage from the fourth tap. Flexibility is key with the 4-tap system, as you can mix and match the third and/or fourth taps for seasonal beverages if needed.
Can I use alternative milks?
Yes, absolutely.
The Flo-Smart system is designed for any non-carbonated, pulp-free beverages; meaning that coffee order with three different types of milk is now a breeze!eckout. We run discounts and promotions all year, so stay tuned for exclusive deals.
How many settings are available per tap for the amount of milk (Moose Large Jug, Medium Jug, Milk Shake, Iced Coffee, etc.)?
You can have 3 milk sizes as presets for the tap.
What product do you think we should dispense?
We belive options like Macha, Ice Coffee, Cold Brewbelieve or Milkshakes are a great option as this could cut down time significantlyas well as open beverages and deserts up to a new level of offering. Our Davinci range is great here as we believe the Frappease Powder mix and the Texturizing Beverage Base will assist the beverage making processas well as increase speed and quality of the beverage.
Otherwise, milk is a great option for most cafes.
Can the system use milk bladders?
It certainly can! Our system is also designed to use a mix of bladders and containers with a simple quick connect fitting.
How many litres in a Milk Bladder Bag?
10L Bladders, we also have 18L container options, you can have cold brew, iced tea etc is drawn from these.
Bladder Material: Food Grade Polypropylene
How much room is required for Milk Bladers?
External Dimensions: 430(L) x 323(W) x 127mm(H)
Internal Dimensions (taken from top): 390(L) x 280mm(W)
Base Dimensions (taken from base): 360(L) x 255mm(W)
Can I use my own fridge?
Yes, as long as it’s fit for purpose and its internal size is adequate to allow the quantity of containers and pumps to fit. Flo-Smart has a range of purpose-built fridges with varying capacities that are easy to use and appropriately sized for the system.
What is the price difference compared to 2-litre milk bottles? Are there any savings?
Depending on where you purchase the bladders, all the feedback we have received indicates that the ongoing cost savings are significant. These savings come not only from the initial bladder purchase but also from reduced storage and waste.
Do I need a chiller?
This depends on your circumstances:
- If the “product travel distance” between the fridge and dispenser is less than 1 meter you do not, but the system must be cleaned daily.
- If the “product travel distance” is greater than 1 meter, you require a chiller. However, the advantage is our system only needs to be cleaned once per week.
- If you’re based in the USA and require NSF accreditation, you are required to have a chiller.
How about cleaning?
Without a chiller, daily cleaning requires 18 tubs of cleaner per year. With a chiller, it requires 2 tubs of cleaning powder per year.
You can find all the parts we sell for the Flo-Smart here.
How long can the chilled line be?
We currently have operations where the chiller is 15+ meters away from the Flo-Smart.
How much will it cost to install?
Please expect to pay labour cost of approximately 4 to 8 hours (unless you are based in a difficult location or require cool-room install which can take a bit longer).
Subheading
Winners of the Gold 2020 Good Design Australia Award
“Flo-Smart is a clever and appealing design where form and product functionality has been blended to answer a void in the hospitality market. Aesthetic and well-resolved, several inputs were considered including reduction of waste and metering of the beverage, different types of beverage, semi-automated cleaning and modularity of the storage and dispense systems.Consideration of the user’s workflow (e.g. barista or bartender) and the context also provides a pleasing mix of service and product design. Well done”.

It's a win-win!
We operate busy cafes in Melbourne and Perth. With the rising demand for alternative milk, we faced challenges with available bench space. We needed a milk management solution to reduce clutter and enhance speed and efficiency. We are committed to integrating great technology for good into our business, and Flo-Smart has been an innovative addition that improves consistency for our customers and simplifies decision-making for our team while minimizing waste.
Hobart Coffee Roasters owner - Hobart, Australia
We could not imagine stepping back into the dark ages of having to free-pour milk!
We are a very environmentally conscious business and take care with our impact of our waste. At some of our venues we can utilize composting services for our spent coffee grounds, we use compostable packaging at all our sites and have finally found a way to do away with single use plastic milk bottles, thanks to Flo-Smart.

I chose Flo-Smart
I was in the market for a product that could aid in the matter of decreasing waste and increasing productivity. We needed a cost-effective system that utilizes a canister system.
Manu Feildel - Popular TV chef
Making coffee is an art. It’s why there’s professionals that do it
I also think part of that art is being able to make coffee fast because when you’ve got a lot of people queuing you still need to keep quality. I love watching baristas at work. You can tell by the way they move around the machine if they know what they’re doing. It’s like watching a good chef prepare a meal and chop their ingredients.
