For bars, hotels, and cafés, ice quality is a crucial operational factor—it influences drink presentation, flavor consistency, and overall service efficiency. Traditionally, commercial operators have used three main methods to produce ice:
• Freezer molds – Easy to use, but they often produce cloudy ice and have low output, which limits their suitability for commercial operations.
• Manual chiseling from large blocks – Can yield clear ice, but is labor-intensive, time-consuming, and inefficient.
• Purchasing from suppliers – Ensures high-quality ice, but comes at a higher cost and offers less control over supply.
Commercial clear ice machines provide an efficient and cost-effective alternative, delivering consistently clear ice, scalable production, and reduced labor, making beverage operations more reliable and streamlined.
Four Clear Ice Shapes for Every Drink
Beyond clarity, the shape of clear ice is equally important for presentation and functionality. Argion commercial clear ice machines can produce large batches of clear ice in four versatile formats, each tailored for specific beverage applications:
• Sphere – Ideal for spirit-forward cocktails, melts slowly, and enhances premium presentation.
• Cube – Highly versatile, widely used, and suitable for mixed drinks as well as high-volume operations.
• Collins Spear – Tailored for highball-style beverages, providing efficient cooling and consistent presentation.
• Diamond – Distinctive and upscale, perfect for specialty drinks or concept beverage programs.
By producing multiple ice formats from a single machine, brands can diversify their offerings and develop differentiated clear ice solutions for their customers, improving both functionality and visual appeal.
