What Is a Commercial Ice Machine?
An ice machine is an indispensable part of any restaurant, bar, tavern, or even hotel, however, the type of ice needed depends on the requirements of a particular establishment. Other factors to be considered when choosing an ice maker machine aside from the shape of ice may include the type of ice, how much ice yield is required, and ice storage and even filtration.
Restaurant and bar kitchens, in particular, have different ice requirements especially when talking about the type or shape of ice. There are some that require the simple cube ice, others look for flaked ice, and there are those that prefer nugget-shaped ice. This is because there are different uses for each particular shape of ice. For food displays (especially seafood or meats) and salad bars, flake ice is often preferred. Uses for the more regular cube ice varies, and they are more versatile: they can be used for anything, although they are most commonly used for keeping both alcoholic and nonalcoholic drinks cold. Nugget ice is designed to be easier to blend; thus they are perfect for use crushed in smoothies and frozen cocktails.
When you have chosen the type of ice that you require for your establishment, the next thing to consider is how much ice you will need on a per-day basis. This is the most important thing to consider when looking to purchase a commercial ice machine. Commercial ice machines can produce as much as a few hundred pounds of ice per day, but you need to make sure that they produce just enough for your establishment's needs.
How Do Commercial Ice Makers Work?
An industrial ice maker is a particular type of equipment that makes ice for commercial establishments' kitchens, especially bars, taverns, restaurants, and other establishments that need to serve cold drinks and keep food on ice. Most industrial ice machines have a built-in water source as well as a freezing ice-tray mechanism. This helps them produce a large amount of ice throughout a period of twenty-four hours, even faster than regular multipurpose freezers. There are restaurant ice machines that produce cubed (both dice cube and half dice), flaked, and nugget ice, depending on what the establishment's owner requires.
Needless to say, ice maker machines are specifically created to make the highest quality of ice possible. Therefore periodic cleaning and regular filtration of water are both necessary to keep producing excellent ice and to make sure that the taste of the ice produced is consistent and pleasant.
