Yes, you can use half moon ice in the Waring Pro SCM100. My icemaker makes same style of ice and it works fine. Just follow the instructions and don't overload the machine. We had a great summer making snow canes! I love this machine and it works great!

As long as the size of your ice cube, in your case, the half moon, will fit into the chute, the machine will shave the ice.

We've used all different shapes in ours. As long as it isn't bigger than an normal ice cube, it should be fine.

Yes, as others have noted, the half-moon shaped ice will work just fine. My experience has been quite good. We bought ours at the beginning of this past summer and used it frequently. It works fine and cleans up easily. Well worth the price.

I used crescent shaped ice cubes also. They worked perfectly. Just don't push down too hard onto the handle to force the ice onto the blade. I always use what I call the "give it gas" technique. I push it down, then after 45 seconds or so. I let up and either clear out the chips or add more ice but I don't constantly hold it down. Also, don't listen to the person who says not to buy. I am a teacher and I used it every other day for 4 months as a reward during summer school , which I would consider more than average uses, and it still works perfectly. Read the instructions carefully and adhere to their tips and you will be fine. Different sizes of ice are fine, as long as they fit inside the chute. Another tip, when the ice tray starts to make a mountain out of ice and is blocking new ice from falling, shake it and let the ice settle back into a flat pile and then continue to crush it. Any other questions? Just ask!

I have used cube ice and small blocks of ice and still get the same result. It has a good grinder on it. You just can't over fill it or it won't grind the ice.

I haven't tried this one specifically for ice cubes, but I do have silicone ice molds that work very well. Seeing as it's made of the same material, I don't think why it wouldn't.

I'm not sure I normally put ice cubes in it before its done maybe sorry I'm not helpful I love the tea maker. the tea maker is great for loose leaf tea and bags too.

Yes, however, I have this in my house in Ecuador and the ice cubes are very small, I don't know how this would work on large cubes.

It can use that type of ice, I've used ice cubes from my refrigerator and it worked just as good as with the molded ice. Although, since it's several different pieces the top part will move around a lot so make sure you press down and hold it in place and it won't move much. Other than that little detail, "ice cubes" will work.

I Don't understand your question... They are few standing & stackable... If you have a ice maker why would you need Ice Cube Trays. Can't help you, sorry.

No. There are three sizes but it makes ice by freezing around a metal pole so they are hollow but smallest is about one half inch by inch. All the machines work same way. I use ice crusher for smaller chips.

First make sure the blade is inserted correctly. Then flip the top open, put two or three ice cubes in, shut the top and let 'er rip. If you have trouble with the crescent shaped cubes from an automatic ice maker, you could try breaking them up with a small mallet or hammer. Sometimes that helps.

Yes, it does produces fine, smooth pieces of ice. I love this machine. Money well spent

I guess I'm not sure since I have never made them. The size would be bite siz. It is a harder plastic not rubber typ. The ice cubes pop out fairly easy if you don't fill all the way to the top. Only problem I have had is the ends broke when trying to get cubes out initially.

Not sure, replacement for a galaxy icemaker? Does it look like this unit? Seems that there is really only a few actual different ice makers on older units so if it looks like yours, I think you will be good.

I re-read my instructions as I was not aware that it would make any other size then med/small. When I googled it on line it states that the machine will only make the one size of cube. Sorry I could not help.

Each "diamond" cube is 1" wide X 1" deep X .75" tall. The cubes are pretty small, about 1/2 the size of a standard tray cube. I made ice cubes for a party - the cubes looked comparable in size to large crushed ice, couldn't tell cubes were diamond shaped due to the frosted nature of ice. The diamond shape should be apparent with solid, opaque wax.

Probably half-inch size, that is it will go through a 1/2 inch square sieve. Certainly also some smaller pieces due to the breaking up of the original cubes. Running the batch through again breaks some of the larger pieces. A lot of smaller pieces and water results. Not snow cone sized.

Yep it should without a problem. I put ice water in and the cubes last all day

10 1/2 x 3 1/2 don't think they would break in 1/2 easily. They make great little cubes. I let a tray sit out about 2 min's before twisting and dumping into my icecube freezer bucket for easy removal.
