how long before the ice melts?

I think the ice lasts about twice as long in the Copco than with a traditional cup. The double lining serves as an insulator so it not only eliminates the sweating all over the table but also seems to make the ice last much longer. These are really great cups!

I put ice all the way to the top then hot coffee over it and it lasts a while

yes it will melt pre existing ice off any surface. I use it as a preventative.

You want a time interval where the ice cream mixture against the freezer wall is starting to be solid but not too long so the blades are almost impossible to turn. I turn slowly and just watch to see how fast the mixture is freezing.

The ice will melt in less than an hour. I would not use this unit to make ice with though because it does not produce finely shaved ice. The ice is not much more than crushed ice you can get out of some refrigerators. VERY crunchy, and not in a good way at all. This unit does however look good, so I just make a bunch of ice with a real ice shaver and fill this unit up with that ice.

Do not under stand question , same as ice would . How long do you freeze ice

The ice cubes fall into the storage bin and they melt very little because all the ice cubes create a "cold" temperature in the bin. Once the bin becomes full the ice maker stops making ice until the bin is emptied. I have been gone longer than six hours and the cubes still very large with minimal melting. The ice maker has great insulation to keep the temperature as cold as possible.

10 seconds or so····Then the element gets to cold to work···Then you have to wait a few minutes until it heats up. I used it at Halloween and was happy with it.

Do you mean before freezing? Shouldn't make a difference. Just takes longer to freeze.

I also noticed the ice melting sooner than I thought it would. Since they are large, I thought they would stay much longer than regular ice. I am not sure where I saw it, but the supplier had some tips on how to keep the ice frozen longer...I will look and see if I can find where that was. Maybe if you contact the supplier - maybe reply to an email they might send...they might be able to get you this info faster...just a thought.

At least six hours. I fill mine up about 1/4 put in the freezer when it gets frozen I put cold water over the frozen ice and it will stay cold 8 to 10 hours or longer. I love mine.

Not as loud as a blender, not as piercing as a food processor, relatively quiet motor. As for ice - the more you use the faster the product cools down - approximately two trays of ice (24-36 cubes). Put ice in first - then add 'cold water' (as much as allowed/indicated); room temperature bottle/beverage will be near 'ice cold' in less than 5 minutes.

You will need something colder than just ice. The idea is to "freeze" it. Something that cannot be achieved with just a cooler with ice. After taking it out of the freezer it will last 30~40 min.

They will get cold but will not start to freeze. It also depends on your cooler. Usually mine lasts for an hour but I have multiple sclerosis and put off alot of heat. If it's hot outside they will melt alot faster too. Your best way would be to freeze all that you have, and put them in the cooler and use them as needed.

Seems like about 30 minutes and it is pretty cold again. To really get it frozen more like a couple hours

It only takes seconds for the machine to shave the ice. The ice will start to melt immediately, if you are outside, make those sno cones quickly! Its a great, powerful machine.

frozen 45-50 minutes, be sure to put a strip of foil around the edges. If not frozen should take about 35-40 minutes. The contents must be thoroughly chilled before baking though, that is important.
