Description
A portable and compact ice maker for small counters, offices, snack bars and casual beverage services.
This compact ice maker produced up to 10 to 12 kg of hollow ice cubes per 24 hours, with an easy-to-place table format. It is suitable for cafes, small bars, offices, reception areas, guest rooms or service points that want to have ice cubes without installing a heavier professional machine.
Its Mayn interest is reactivity: the machine produces 10 bullet-shaped ice cubes every 6 to 12 minutes. For a one-off or regular but limited need, it is a simple alternative before moving on to a 24 kg, 45 kg or more range.
Why choose this portable ice maker?
1. A compact format for a small space
With its reduced size of 240 × 360 × 340mm, it can be placed on a work surface, behind a counter or in an office. It remains designed for back-up: the ice reserve is limited to 750g, which requires the basket to be emptied regularly if demand increases.
2. Quick hollow ice cubes for cold drinks
Bullet-shaped ice cubes quickly cool everyday drinks: soft drinks, smoothies, flavored waters, small cocktails or hospitality service. The 6 to 12 minute cycle allows production to be restarted throughout the day.
3. Simple installation, without water supply
The manual tank 1,6 L avoids having to provide a dedicated water supply. The analog panel indicates the useful states: production in progress, lack of water and full tank. Draining is done by gravity with a silicone plug.
