In response to erratic occupancy levels and growing
competition, coupled with higher Guest expectations,
the Hospitality Industry is continuously striving to
improve its quality standards, worldwide.
Distinguished and cosmopolitan clientele are nowadays
keen on finding the same “global standards” in the level
of service during their sojourn.
Abundance and appropriate selection of the best quality
ice has been a high ranking “member” of such list of key
hospitality quality indicators in the Hotel Industry for
many years…!
Food and Drinks freshness, alongside with an
impeccable presentation, must relay on appropriate
and generous usage of ice in any of the Hotel
facilities where Guest takes advantage of the Hotel’s
Foodservice offerings.
In the Hotel, ice is used continuously throughout
the day: in the Buffet and “à la Carte” Restaurant,
in the Lounge Bar, in the Spa and in all the Outdoors
Activity Areas refreshments centers, for the Room
Service …
“Ice” is today a synonym of “quality” e “Passion for
the Customer”. It is therefore relevant to fully
understand various ice-types available, as well as the
various types of ice machines, each one dedicated to
producing an individual type of ice.
In fact, there is a specific type of ice for each
application. It is not by chance that water is frozen
in various shapes and forms: Cubes (in different
shapes and sizes), Granules (more or less
compressed, hence moist or dry, called flake and
super-flake), Compressed (up to 92% of frozen
water, called nugget and cubelet), and, last but not
least, sub-cooled Scale ice, the most “technical” of
all ice shapes available today.
Each ice form melts, and therefore subtracts heat
from the product it is in contact with, over a
different period of time and with different results in
terms of product
hydration.
It is a fact that
many Foodservice
and Hospitality experts
could make good use
of a “brush-up”
regarding the
physics of ice and its
correct utilization.
In this “Scotsman Buying
Guide” the reader will be
able to acquire enough
information to discern
amongst various types of ice
and amongst the various ice
machine technologies and
configurations that lead to a
specific ice-type production.
Scotsman Ice Systems is the manufacturer that offers
the greatest variety of ice forms, as well as of ice
machines, in the world.

ser cooling method is the most meaningful one.

priate model of ice machine, unhindered by
