Ice Maker KP CUBE 18 g

Use of full cube ice in the HoReCa environment

Full cube ice makers typically provide stable and visually appealing ice suitable for bars, restaurants and cafés. Full cube ice melts more slowly, preserving drink flavour for longer and reducing excessive dilution. During high-volume service, this type of ice helps maintain consistent quality.

Cubetto pieno 18 g ice cubes are well suited for serving classic cocktails and drinks on the rocks. The cube keeps a clean shape, provides an even reflection and enhances drink presentation.

Properties of the Cubetto pieno 18 g cube

The 18 gram full ice cube forms dense, with a smooth structure and clear surface. Reduced air pockets allow the cube to hold temperature for longer, which is important during intensive service hours. In bar areas it helps keep drink balance stable.

This cube size usually creates fewer leftovers in the ice bin and is easy to handle, simplifying daily workflow. It maintains drink appearance and often becomes a key visual element in higher-quality cocktails.

Types of ice makers and technical parameters

Full cube ice makers come with various cooling systems and power levels. Air-cooled models are popular for compact bars, while water-cooled units are often chosen for kitchens where space is limited and heat load is high. Selecting the right cooling system helps maintain stable operation.

Important parameters for professional equipment include compressor power, water consumption, filtration solutions and bin capacity. Stainless steel construction supports hygiene and simplifies regular cleaning.

• Ice production in a 24-hour cycle.
• Bin capacity for peak service hours.
• Cooling method and ventilation needs.
• Filtration systems that improve ice quality.

What to check before purchasing

When purchasing, it is important to consider room specifics and actual ice consumption. High-traffic bars need higher capacity, while small cafés benefit from compact units providing stable cube quality without unnecessary energy use. Bin size is crucial to prevent shortages.

Safe and high-quality ice production depends on water quality, making filtration systems essential. Poor ventilation can reduce performance and increase heat load, so installation must be carefully planned.

1. Daily production and peak demand.
2. Ventilation possibilities and airflow.
3. Water quality and filtration systems.
4. Bin capacity and working schedule.
5. Noise level and compressor operation.
