4 Tips for Buying Ice Cream Manufacturing
Equipment
2
Pick the Right Size

• It might be tough to estimate, but you need to
  figure out how much ice cream you will be making
  and selling. Industrial ice cream machine usually
  comes in multiple barrel options. Ultimately,
  this will depend upon the needs of the owner.
  Each of the barrels makes about 11 gallons of ice
  cream per hour, and one gallon serves about 30
  scoops. If you think scoops of your ice cream
  will be selling like hot cakes, then you should
  consider a double or triple barrel model.

Pick Your Price Point

• Everybody knows ice cream machines can be very
  expensive. So, you must consider the amount you
  are willing to spend on buying a high-quality
  model. Also, there are financing options
  available which you can use for buying the ice
  cream manufacturing equipment you dont have cash
  on hand for. Apart from this, the best and a
  cost-efficient option is buying used industrial
  ice cream machine as they are equally efficient
  but cheaper.

Counter Top vs. Floor Model

• Another thing to take into consideration is
  whether you want a countertop or a floor model
  ice cream maker. If your ice cream parlor aims to
  serve multiple flavors, then youll be better off
  with a large floor model. But if you have a
  full-service restaurant and plans on adding ice
  cream to the dessert menu, a countertop model
  would work.

5
Air Cooled vs. Water Cooled

• There are two types of machines water cooled and
  air cooled. Water-cooled machines are currently
  in trend as they cool the ice cream without the
  loudness which comes with air-cooled fans.
  However, the drawback is you need to connect the
  machine to the water line. So, if plan to run
  your ice cream parlor out of a truck, then an
  air-cooled machine will be perfect for you.
