Can we use Cuisinart ICE-100 for commercial purpose? Eg: making 5-10 batch per day?

It takes about 30 minutes per batch, then remove batch, followed by a 10 minute cool off period, then clean and refill. So you would need about 50 minutes per batch.
1937637
Yes you can. But for commercial pourpose remember that the quantities per time are not more than 1 liter.

It would likely take quite some time to turn around that many batches. The consistency of your ingredients will determine just how long it will take for your recipe to freeze up. Each full batch produces about 4-5 cups of ice cream, which will likely require an average of 45 minutes of freeze time. Over time, I'm not sure how well the machine performs at high volume use. I only use mine to run 3-4 batches a week at most.

I would not recommend it. The instructions state specifically for home use only. It is a wonderful ice cream maker and I highly recommend it for home use.

I would say no...The unit gets pretty warm after each batch and seems to take longer to make each succeeding batch (I have made three in a row)...Would not want to do a fourth as I think it would start harming the compressor...

Yes you can, I am an expert on commercial coffee machines and I have to say that this little machine is really not bad. Not to be compared with one of the big ones like Saeco but what comes out, can be strong and pretty good. Only thing it is a little messy but that is the handle system. It is certainly a step towards the big ones until one can afford it. You can make a regular cup of coffee by using the double filter and let it run two cycles with the same powder. or the single filter and one double cycle. If you want a stronger one press the coffee powder good in the filter but careful not too much and not too high so that the filter has problems going in its place. AR

Yes, you can set up to amount you wish. U can set up batches of 100 should be easiest for total count. This machine doest'n give a total of amount.

No, this is made for ice coffee, it has to brew in the fridge for 10 hours.

you should be able to as the basic function of the machine is to make shaved ice and mix what ever is in the pitchers. I have used the ice cap liquid in the machine and it worked great. Hope this helps

Yes I use my machine several times per day and it works great each time. I would use distilled water so that you don't have to descale often.

Theoretically, the only way I can think of to do it would be to put it in a dehydrator overnight. I suspect that for small "home cook" batches, the power cost and labor would be greater than the cost of buying them new.

From my point of view, it is more work than it's worth. All of my recipes are for 4 or 6 quart machines, so none will work with this unit. Purchased mixes don't taste as good to me as my homemade from scratch ones. No ice, no salt is true, but you have to freeze the insulated mixing bowl for a minimum of 12 hours before using it. 24 hours works better, and then refreeze the contents you don't use right away, in the bowl, so you can dispense them using the machine again. Plus, it's mostly plastic. If you drop it, it breaks and needs to be replaced. My opinion, stay with a 4 or 6 quart electric machine that lasts and produces more ice cream.

Sorry - I don't know. It is still working beautifully for me, though. You can call Cuisinart.

you could .. or I am pretty sure it is in their book, and that has a proper 5 gallon break down for this. If you are looking to do 5 Gallon batches you should consider finding recipes online and buying ingredients at a brew store online or in person (to save shipping) Were you going to brew it one gallon at a time and combine it in a fermentor? Good luck and keep brewing!

I'm don't think so. It's advertised as being powerful, but I'm not sure it's up to commercial grade. You have put the ice cream in in smaller portions for it to work best.

We only do regulars but see no reason why you cannot do 100s. You just have to get the right wraps. The machine is surprisingly easy to use!

Definitely not for commercial use, each time you made espresso there will be water running through the coil to cool it down and dispense it into the tray, as a result, you will have full tray of water waiting for you to dispense after about 4~5 cup

Depends on how often you make them. Even the best blenders will burn out if used too much. Best case scenario is if it's for daily use, don't purchase this.

The Ninja will work great for frozen drinks. I have a regular blender also but it is worthless when I add ice to it. That is why I got the Ninja.
