Hard serve ice cream is one of the most profitable impulse-purchase products in the food service industry. The gross ingredient margin on a single serving reaches 88%. At 250 servings per day over a 90-day season, assuming a very conservative average selling price of PLN 10 per serving, revenue reaches PLN 225,000 while ingredient costs remain at approximately PLN 27,000. In favourable weather conditions, the machine can pay for itself within just a few weeks.

The ICEBERG S+ hard serve ice cream machine is a freestanding twin-cylinder unit designed for high-volume locations. Two independent freezing cylinders allow you to serve two flavours and their mix simultaneously or operate at full capacity with a single flavour. Each cylinder has a capacity of 1.8 litres, while the mix hoppers hold 12.5 litres each, ensuring long operating times without refilling.

The machine features microprocessor-controlled hardness adjustment on a scale from 1 to 20. The operator sets the desired consistency once, and the machine automatically maintains it throughout the day. The display provides real-time information on cylinder temperature, hopper temperature, power supply voltage, motor speed and serving count. Everything you need to know about machine performance is visible at a glance.

The hopper pre-cooling system keeps the mix below 5°C at all times, regardless of ambient temperature. The standby mode, activated overnight, cools both the hopper and the freezing cylinder, ensuring the machine is ready for operation the next morning without compromising product freshness.

A mix level sensor with an audible and visual alarm alerts staff when the hopper requires refilling before product quality is affected. If the warning is ignored for 10 minutes, the machine automatically stops cooling to protect the drive system and seals.

The daily cleaning procedure takes approximately 20–30 minutes and does not require disassembly of mechanical components beyond the standard removal of the dispensing door and air pump. The condenser should be cleaned monthly using a soft brush to maintain maximum cooling efficiency.

Technical specifications

This model is designed for locations where ice cream quality is a key competitive advantage and every minute of downtime matters. Fast cooling, shorter startup times, a quiet inverter system, automatic defrost functionality for easier daily cleaning, and comprehensive overload protection for both compressor and motor make it an ideal choice. Perfect for artisan ice cream shops, premium cafés, restaurants and hotels - anywhere quality drives customer choice and supports premium pricing.

The ICEBERG W+ is a freestanding soft serve machine equipped with two independent freezing cylinders, each with a capacity of 1.8 litres. Its 12.5-litre mix hoppers provide hours of uninterrupted operation under normal sales conditions. Two independent refrigeration circuits allow you to serve two flavours separately or as a mixed twist.

The control panel is based on a microprocessor system with an LCD display. Ice cream hardness can be adjusted on a scale from 1 to 20, after which the machine operates autonomously, maintaining the selected consistency throughout the day. The display shows real-time hopper and cylinder temperatures, supply voltage, motor current, motor speed and serving count.

A standout feature of this model is the Defrost function. With a single button press, the freezing cylinder heats up to 25°C in just five minutes. This reduces daily cleaning time by several minutes and helps eliminate ice crystal formation after extended periods of inactivity, preventing the product from becoming overly hard or grainy when cooling resumes.

The air pump is equipped with an overrun adjustment system, allowing the operator to control how much air is incorporated into the ice cream mix during production. More air creates a lighter, fluffier product, while less air results in a denser and richer texture.

The hopper is equipped with an agitator and a pre-cooling system that automatically maintains the mix temperature below 5°C. Simply activate standby mode overnight to keep both the hopper and freezing cylinder cooled. By morning, the machine is ready to serve immediately.

Technical specifications

The Gelato Marcello Granita Machine is a three-bowl unit designed for businesses that want to serve multiple products simultaneously without compromise. Each of the three 15-litre bowls operates completely independently, with its own temperature settings and operating mode.

One bowl can chill beverages, another can produce slush, while the third remains ready for service. No shared settings and no compromises between products. A single machine can serve three completely different customer segments: fruit-based impulse purchases, frozen coffee drinks, and functional or dessert beverages.

The operating temperature range extends from -10°C to +10°C, covering three distinct beverage categories. Cold still drinks and juices are typically served between +3°C and +5°C. Classic non-alcoholic slush products perform best between -3°C and -1°C. Alcoholic frozen beverages, depending on their alcohol content, generally require temperatures between -15°C and -6°C.

The bowls are made from food-grade polycarbonate and are fully transparent, allowing the vibrant colours of the beverages to attract attention from a distance. The machine housing is constructed from stainless steel and designed to withstand intensive daily use and cleaning.

Operation is controlled through a simple digital interface with temperature displays. Each bowl can be switched independently between slush and cold drink modes with a single button. The automatic cleaning function can be activated separately for each bowl, and all beverage-contact components can be removed without the use of tools.

Three-sided ventilation prevents overheating even during intensive operation. Non-slip rubber feet provide stability on any work surface. A minimum clearance of 30 cm on all sides is recommended for optimal airflow.

Technical specifications

Every machine is backed by on-site service support, a dedicated spare parts inventory, pre-season inspections, operator training, cleaning instruction and technical assistance by phone.
