A gelato batch freezer is a specialized machine used in the production of gelato, a traditional Italian ice cream. This machine is designed to mix and freeze the gelato base, transforming it from a liquid mixture into a smooth, semi-solid, frozen dessert. Here are some key features and functions of a gelato batch freezer, combined with the unique advantages of Mehen’s machines:
Freezing and Mixing: The batch freezer simultaneously freezes and churns the gelato mixture, preventing the formation of large ice crystals and incorporating air to achieve a smooth and creamy texture. Mehen’s masterly blender design ensures the production of ice cream with a proper overrun.
Consistency: The machine is capable of maintaining a consistent temperature and churning speed, which is crucial for producing high-quality gelato with the desired texture and flavor. Mehen’s mechanical controls can overcome difficult electric conditions, guaranteeing a long lifetime even under heavy workload.
Capacity: Gelato batch freezers come in various sizes and capacities, allowing for the production of different quantities of gelato per batch. This makes them suitable for both small artisanal shops and larger commercial operations. Mehen’s machines are durable and efficient for the continuous production of products including hard ice cream, smoothies, sorbets, and slushies.
Ease of Use: Modern batch freezers are often equipped with user-friendly controls and settings, making it easier for operators to achieve consistent results with minimal effort. Mehen offers an optional “Gelato Touch” PLC touch screen version for an intelligent gelato experience. The mechanical control is solid and easy to understand.
Sanitation: These machines are designed to be easy to clean and sanitize, which is important for maintaining hygiene standards in food production. Mehen’s machines feature convenient cleaning options, with easily disassembled parts and a built-in hand-held rinsing water spigot.
Energy Efficiency: Mehen’s highly-efficient heat exchanging cylinders enable fast production, reducing 20-30% of electric and cooling water consumption.
Reliability and Safety: Mehen machines have a failure diagnosis system for quick recovery and a multi-protection design to ensure the safety of users and the machines. The factory is ISO9001 approved, using only high-quality components to ensure product quality. Additionally, the machines use internationally accepted environmentally friendly refrigerants.
Overall, a gelato batch freezer is an essential piece of equipment for any gelato shop or manufacturer, enabling the creation of high-quality gelato efficiently and consistently. Mehen’s machines stand out with their advanced features, reliability, and user-friendly design, making them a top choice for gelato production.
