Commercial Nugget Ice Maker Machines Filters
Nugget ice is popular in the industry because it elevates the drink experience for customers in various ways. On top of it being chewable, its unique ability to absorb the flavor of the drinks converts nugget ice as more than just a way to chill beverages but also some sort of an after-drink tasty snack for your guests. Their quick cooling performance also makes them ideal for salad bars.
The healthcare industry also relies on nugget ice. This type of ice melts slowly and is softer and easier to chew for patients who have difficulty with ice cubes. CKitchen offers the guaranteed lowest prices on these machines like for all other commercial ice machines,

Like most commercial ice machines, nugget ice makers come in two popular cooling options: air-cooled and water-cooled, along with convenient formats for the businesses that are looking for countertop options, undercounter setup or simple small and portable equipment.
Air-cooled nugget ice machines are generally considered the most economical and cost-effective. They don’t require extra water to run and often achieve Energy Star certifications. They rely on ambient temperature to be able to freeze water efficiently and produce maximum ice possible. Make sure to consider some extra clearance space to allow for ventilation.
On the other hand, water-cooled nugget ice machines are ideal for environments where the air temperature is regularly higher than 80 degrees Fahrenheit. They may also be a better choice in commercial kitchens and other spaces with poor air circulation and a higher level of air contaminants. Since a water-cooled nugget ice maker doesn't necessarily have to "breathe", no extra space is typically required.
The quality of ice you use to serve drinks or preserve food is vital to the success of your operation. We at CKitchen are devoted to helping you find the perfect option for your space and your needs. If you're on the hunt for commercial ice machines that can produce ice cubes or pellet ice, we also have them here on CKitchen.
