Hoshizaki Ice Machines. The Right Ice Machine for You and Your Business

Hoshizaki Ice Machines. The right ice machine for your and your business.

Hoshizaki manufacture what many regard as the best ice makers in the world, us included. But it's important you buy the right ice machine for your specific requirements.

Whilst Hoshizaki gave us a run through on their ice maker range we couldn't resist the opportunity to talk with their resident mixologist and get an experts opinion on buying the right ice machine.

In this video, Tim spoke to Myles from the Mixology Group in Brighton about why the right ice machine is so important. Myles discusses the benefits of the correct ice machines and demonstrates making cocktails stand out using Hoshizaki's unique spherical and large cube ice machines.

In the mixology and cocktail industry, it is imperative you have the best ingredients and equipment to work with.

The Mixology Group runs a cocktail school where students learn how to make, serve and present cocktails. In their facility, they have the Hoshizaki IM-65NE-Q sphere ice machine and the large 240kgs Hoshizaki IM-240NE-HC ice cuber.

With any cocktail, it's all about the correct ratio of spirit, mixer and ice. The ice needs to keep its integrity and not dilute the alcohol which is why Hoshizaki's ice machines are the brand of choice for so many professionals.

For something a little different Hoshizaki ice spheres are a great choice to add a little drama. Choosing the correct glass to match the ice is important to give the full impact. Using the right ice and glass combination allows you to take a reasonably unrefined cocktail, a Pina Colada for example, and turn it into a fun and quite refined drink. Served well the perceived value of the drink is increased which ultimately leads you to make more money.

However, it's not just about appearances. Spheres have a smaller surface area ratio compared to squares, which means there is less dilution and drinks will stay stronger for longer. For most people, this is absolutely amazing!

As well as the spherical ice machine Hoshizaki have a machine that can produce one of the largest ice cubes. This is the Hoshizaki IM-65NE-LM. It produces 48 x 48 x 58 mm cubes. This allows you to really offer something unique with your drinks. For example, stamping the bar logo on top of the cube, which looks good and again increases the perceived value of the beverage.

One of the reasons Hoshizaki ice machines are so good is because most ice programmes have three to four hours a day of work or mise en place that has to be carried out. The Hoshizaki ice machines do it all for you. This means you can focus your time and your teams time on something else, which is very important for a modern bartender.
