If you’re going to have any kind of higher demand, it’s going to provide you with the most ice in comparison to the other ice makers we reviewed.

To borrow from a famous boxer, units of this type are “lean, mean” ice-making machines. Because these machines lack long-term ice storage, you’ll need a means of storing produced ice soon after it is made. These models are ideal for high capacity kitchens that tend to need a lot of ice in a short amount of time. As a subset of self-contained ice machines, undercounter models are capable of both producing and storing ice. However, these models of this type are distinct because they can fit comfortably under a 40″ counter. This more compact size tends to come with the trade-off of lower overall capacity and ease of access for maintenance.

Self-contained machines include both the icemaker and the container for storing it in one unit. They’re bigger and produce more ice than your typical consumer models, but smaller than modular ice machines. They come in both undercounter and countertop configurations and are easier to fit into tight spaces than modular ice machines. The tradeoff, as you would expect, is that they don’t make as much ice as modular machines, and don’t provide as much storage space. For smaller bars or cafes, they may well suffice, all while allowing more space for other needs in the kitchen. For larger cafeterias or restaurants, you’ll likely need to go with a modular ice machine. Read more info on Grant Flake Ice Makers.

This Scotsman HID312A-1A Meridian countertop air cooled ice machine can both produce ice and dispense water without taking up too much counter space. This ice machine makes nugget ice, which melts slowly and is ideal for cooling drinks, making this product perfect for convenience stores, fast food restaurants, and office break rooms. This machine also has a diagnostic LED light system that alerts you when something needs to be changed, which makes maintenance easy.

Like most portable ice makers, this machine also features an automatic standby which works with an infrared sensor to detect the ice level in the basket and turn off when it’s full, saving you from having to monitor it. Users can monitor ice production through the transparent viewing window. In terms of performance, it works slower than the top pick, producing nine bullet-shaped ice cubes in 8-10 minutes. However, with a thick layer of PU foam that can insulate the heat very effectively, this model can keep the ice cool longer compared to its peers. While most portable ice makers can make from two to three sizes of ice, the Vremi VRM010636N offers only one ice size option. But we think this barely matters, because having less settings makes the device more simplicity and easier to use. Each ice cube is about 8 grams, which makes it best suited for mixed beverages or small water bottle openings. See more info at commercial ice maker.
