Ice Systems

“Rule-of-thumb” advice on how to choose the right ice maker,

suitable to sustain the actual requirements

Gourmet ice, Large, Half Large, Dice ice,

Nugget ice, Scale ice… Each of these

diﬀerent types of ice is meant to meet and

fulﬁll a speciﬁc requirement.

They are produced by inherently diﬀerent ice

making machines. Other than by type of ice,

diﬀerences may also be found in daily output

capacity. More importantly, in the storage

bin capacity, directly related to the footprint

and the production volume of the units.

The true parameter that should be

followed when choosing an ice machine is

the quantity of ice that the machine can

hold in its storage bin, which equates to the

actual quantity of ice that is available to the

operator "here and now" as well as for the

remainder of the evening hours.

The reﬁll capacity of ice machines during ser-

vice hours is in fact relatively limited.

Consider that the hourly output of a medium-

small ice machine ranges from 2 kg per hour

for medium-size models, going down to 0.8

kg per hour for the smallest units.

It is strongly advisable to verify that the

storage bin capacity is such that it will sustain

your ice requirements from the early-on

aperitives through to after-dinner digestives.

Some of the smallest ice machines within the

20 kg of daily production capacity, in fact,

feature a storage bin capacity of only 4 kg!

A traditional bar, an “American Bar” that

serves a limited volume of classic cocktails,

may decide to work with a single,

self-contained, Gourmet cube producing ice

machine. In this case, special care should be

paid in selecting the correct capacity of the

storage bin: the best sellers in this segment

are ice machines whose bins range between

8 and 15 kg, i.e. ice machines producing

20 to 30 kg of ice per day.

Part of this production might be crushed for

the preparation of tropical cocktails, unless a

dedicated nugget ice machine is also

available in the bar.

Beverage consumption in Disco’s is typically

higher, hence the requirement for larger

capacity ice machines, for a generous ice

supply.

In this situation, we recommend the use of

modular ice machines, where the

production unit is matched with the storage

bin, chosen ac- cording to the speciﬁc

consumption patterns.

The ﬁrst rule-of-the-thumb is that the storage bin capacity should ideally reﬂect 50%

of the machines daily production.

Keep in mind that once the storage bin is full, the ice machine producing ice. It will only restart

when ice is removed from the storage bin.

A storage bin that is unable to store the "closing hours production capacity" of the machine will

therefore limit the daily actual capacity of the unit, whilst delivering only a limited amount of ice

when the need is at its peak.

In order to serve your customers with the “perfect drink” you need crystal-clear, pure,

transparent and full cubes, to avoid “watering down” the drinks.

In detail: a hollow cube, a "cube with the hole" will oﬀer a larger heat exchange surface than a

massive cube, which in turn will cause the cube to melt quicker. Hollow cubes usually melt prior

to the average consumption time of the drink.

Very quick cooling of the drink will therefore occur, as well as its (premature) warming up once

the ice cubes have melted.

A full cube, on the contrary, will chill the drink reﬂecting the consumption pattern: promptly, but

not abruptly, durably and not prematurely, preserving the drink quality rather than diluting it.

Massive cubes will last through the drink and more, for the enjoyment of those who love

chewing on the residual ice cubes…

A larger storage bin will accumulate and keep

ice cubes during low volume week-days, and

that higher quantity will come handy on

high-volume week-end days. As the purchase

cost of the ice machine is signiﬁcantly higher

than that of the bin, this simple trick may

translate into signiﬁcant savings.

In other words, when ice consumption tends

to concentrate in peaks during the week, a

smaller ice machine may be purchased, and

placed on the top of a larger than usual

storage bin.

For “round the week”, high volume Disco’s,

we suggest that you consider more than just

one large ice machine: several medium-size

machines may be strategically positioned near

the point-of-consumption of ice, thus

reducing ice transportation and all related

issues of potential contamination and extra

labour.

How do we handle space restraint in

under-counter installations?

And how do we possibly by-pass the lack of

water drainage?

Scotsman has the answer!

The compact AC 206 / EC 206 ice machines

from the 6 Series combines a roomy storage

bin with a reduced height.

Moreover, an optional built-in water pump

connects the ice machine to the far reached

drainage, which can now be located as far as

15 meters from the ice machine.

This system takes care of height as well: up to

1.7 meters distance, which makes it easy to

connect the machine drain tube to a sink

drain.

PWD - (Progressive Water Discharge)

Unique PWD (Progressive Water Discharge) by

Scotsman.

It solves all your drainage height or distance

problems.

Place your ice maker just where you need it,

up to15 meters away, and 1.7 meters lower

than the actual drain outlet. And keep your

ice away from algae or microbes coming from

stagnant drain water.

PWD is standard on all EC Easy Fit line

models.

Up to 15 mt away

1,7 mt lower
