How can you clean a commercial ice machine properly

Anyone who is going to be suing a commercial ice machine needs to know how to clean it properly. The machine needs to always be kept in the best shape and cleaning it is part of accomplishing that. There are specific guidelines that are put into the manuals about the cleaning process depending on which ice machine you have.

However, here are some basics of how to properly clean the commercial ice machine.

Cleaning Every Few Months For most of the commercial kitchen supplies and commercial ice machine choices sold at Scots Ice Australia, they should be cleaned thoroughly every three months. Never go longer than six months without cleaning the machine. This will help to keep the commercial ice machine running properly and makes sure the ice continues to taste fresh and clean.

Prepping Before the Cleaning There needs to be some prepping before cleaning the commercial ice machine. The machine should first be turned off and unplugged. Then you should make sure the water supply is turned off from the line to the machine. Next, the water and ice should all be taken out of the machine and discarded. Finally, you will take all of the parts that touch the ice off from the machine.

Cleaning Process The first step to the cleaning process, after you have finished prepping the commercial ice machine, is to wash the parts you took off and sanitize them as well. You should do this with one part ice machine cleanser and three parts of water. You should then thoroughly rinse all of these pieces with completely clean water. You will then put the pieces back onto the machine and wipe down and sanitize all the external areas on the machine. It should then dry off on its own. Finally, you will turn the machine back on and let the first ice batch be made. For more detail you can mail at info@scotsice.com.au OR call : (02) 9684 5666 | (02) 9637 7099
