Hi,

I’ll take a photo of the actual ice block later today.

Yes, I split them. Only takes a few seconds.

For Just the Cabinet portion of the machine it is $6300 dollars. You would also need the compressor and refrigeration system which is another $6000. They do have there smaller machine that has everything built in and that makes 30 blocks a day

How much electricity does this machine require? How much heat doors it emit?

This machine does require a 220v outlet. As far as electric i am not totally sure. I have this ice machine, three Ice Merchandisers, and 4 chest freezers and my electric bill is about 65 a month. The unit does kick off some heat. Currently I am just in a 20x20 mini warehouse and normal temp is around 85. When i have this machine going can reach about 105 Degrees :( . I am moving into a bigger mini warehouse with exhaust fans and AC so I am excited about that!

Yikes! That is hot! Would love to see your setup if you don't mind sharing :) With the temperature spiking that high, how long does it take for your blocks to freeze?

Can't wait to hear more about your bigger mini warehouse.

16 hours, sometimes,18-19. hours. I got the smaller one and it is pretty good. It is just sometimes pain to get rid of plastic bag which gets stuck under the ice.
