Portable Ice Makers by ARDESTO: A Variety of Uses

Planning a gathering with friends or craving a refreshing lemonade after a workout? With ARDESTO ice makers, you no longer need to wait hours for water to freeze in the freezer.

Devices That Work Wonders

So, an ice maker is a modest yet powerful device that can truly work wonders by turning ordinary water into perfectly rounded ice cubes. However, it can also be used in many other interesting and unconventional ways.

  • Ice for Drinks: The most common use of an ice maker is to chill water, juices, cocktails, sodas, tea, and coffee.
  • Food Preservation: Ice can be used for storing food, including fish, meat, fruits, and vegetables.
  • Cooling Drinks in Containers: To cool beverages or store food, simply remove the ice basket and place a container with your favorite drink in the device. Cooling happens instantly: in just 4 minutes, users can have an almost ice-cold drink for themselves and their friends. The basket can hold three 0.5-liter cans or four 0.33-liter cans. They can remain inside for as long as needed, as the device will maintain the necessary amount of ice for cooling.
  • Dessert Preparation: Ice can be crushed into granules and used for making ice cream or smoothies.
  • Ice for Facial Care: Rubbing the face with these cubes can tighten pores, improve skin texture, and reduce swelling and redness. Moreover, thanks to a hole in the “spool,” the cubes can be placed on a cotton swab for easier facial care.
  • Melting Water: The ice maker can be a useful tool for obtaining melting water, which is said to have health benefits. It’s important to use clean drinking water for freezing.
  • Reducing Swelling: Wrapping ice in a clean cloth and applying it to the affected area for 10-15 minutes can significantly reduce pain and swelling after an injury.

ARDESTO Portable Ice Makers

The portable devices ARDESTO IM-A1200B and IM-A1200SS are handy at home, in the country, or in a small office, providing fresh ice for cooling drinks and suitable for unconventional situations.

Simplicity in Details: The devices feature a minimalist design and remarkably thoughtful construction: a built-in touch control panel, operational indicators, and a window for visually monitoring the ice level. Each ice maker comes with a special scoop, and quick water drainage is facilitated by a valve at the bottom of the unit. IM-A1200B model is made of black polycarbonate, while IM-A1200SS is made of stainless steel. Both models will fit seamlessly into any kitchen, office, or restaurant decor.

  • Whisper-Quiet Operation: The ice maker operates with an active cooling system. In addition to a fan, it is equipped with a compressor similar to that used in a regular refrigerator. The ice maker is virtually silent, producing noise no louder than that of a computer’s system unit. Therefore, wherever the device is installed, it won’t interfere with work or relaxation.
  • High Performance: Both models have a maximum output of 12 kg of ice per day. The ice container has a capacity of 0.6 kg, and the ice-making cycle takes approximately 9 minutes. The production of ice cubes begins immediately after the device is turned on, and thus, the ice tray will be filled in about 2 hours. During this time, the ice maker will freeze around 120 round cubes, which even several ice trays can’t match.
  • Continuous Ice Production: The ice maker is designed for continuous ice production, but there are some limitations: it will keep making cubes until the ice container is completely full. Once full, the ice maker will enter sleep mode. When the sensors detect that some of the produced ice has slightly melted and turned into water, the device will resume ice generation until the basket is full again. This way, the owner of the ice maker will always have a full container of cubes on hand! If there isn’t enough water to make ice, the device will notify the user with sound and light indicators.
  • Impressive Energy Efficiency: What are the energy costs for keeping the ice basket full? The answer is about 1 kWh per day, indicating the high energy efficiency of the ice makers.

ARDESTO ice makers combine quality, exquisite design, and versatility in use.
