A half dice ice machine makes the smaller cubes a bar or a cafe pours drinks over all day: they chill a drink faster and pack more tightly in a glass than a full cube.

A half dice ice maker suits soft drinks, takeaway cups and high-volume service, where filling the cup fast matters more than a slow melt. Full cubes melt slower and suit spirits — see cube ice makers for those and commercial ice machines for the full range. Half dice ice makers include small self-contained machines for a cafe up to large modular heads for a busy bar, so you can buy the size that suits your business at its current size, then size up as your business grows.

These are the top FAQs for Half Cube Ice Maker

Half dice or full cube?

Half dice chills faster and fills a cup with fewer gaps. Full cubes melt slower, which suits spirits served over ice.

Why do cafes prefer half dice?

It suits iced coffee and takeaway cups, where the drink is finished quickly and a full cube leaves too much empty space in the cup.

Cups are in disposable cups and dispensers.

Does half dice dispense well?

Better than full cubes, because the smaller pieces flow. Nugget flows best of all.

See commercial ice dispensers and nugget ice makers.

What output should I buy?

Size to the busiest hour, then match storage to that peak.

See commercial ice storage bins.

Can I change ice size later?

No. The ice format is built into the machine, so choose the type before the model.

Compare types in commercial ice machines.

What maintenance is required?

Scheduled sanitising, filter changes and condenser cleaning.

See commercial ice machine accessories.
