If you’ve been wondering about whether it’s time to replace your ice cream machine, here’s some warning signs:

If the refrigeration system runs longer than normal on the initial freeze down in the morning, this may be a signal to change the scraper blades, clean the condenser or request a service call.

When the service calls become too frequent or cost-prohibitive, then the operator should evaluate whether replacing or repairing the unit will provide the greater return on investment and act accordingly.

Most blades have wear lines that help determine when the operator needs to replace them. Leaking can be an indication the O ring has a tear. A simple replacement may address this. However, excessive wear and tear on an older unit means replacement should be considered.

Ice cream freezes at between 18 and 21 degrees F. If the unit cannot maintain the proper temperature, or the compressor needs replacing, it may make more sense to retire the machine.

So if you are in the market for a reliable used ice cream machine, then consider the selection available at One Fat Frog Restaurant Equipment.
