Making the Perfect Shaved Ice and doing it Fast

- This is a very real look at the block shaver. This video was at the request of one of our customers who had some specific questions he wanted answered in video. There was also a forum entry on another site that I had replied to about the many improvements we have made since the launch of our first block ice shaver. I address some of those as well.
The first request, is that he wanted to see us put flavor on the shaved ice, and he asked that the tops be oversized. I am not sure the intent here, but obviously, if your snow is hanging over the side, it will also drip off the side. It did just that. But what we were really looking for here, was how well the snow held onto the flavor or syrup. You see, if you pour syrup on a shaved ice, and that flavor quickly goes to the bottom of the cup, then that snow is icy. If, however, that snow sucks up that flavor like a sponge and doesn't let go, well, that my friend is Snow!
The second concern was that the snow will back into the channel where the snow comes out. We didn't show the shaver shaving with a tempered block, which is a common practice in the industry. Instead, we kept it cold so that you could see what to do as an alternative when your snow sticks to the topper and potentially gathers back in the chute. First, if you shave your snow small enough so that it has a top appropriate for the cup you are using, it will be far more difficult to have snow build up, back up in the chute. Remember, we are working with snow. Everything you experience here, will happen in nature as well. When you go out on those cold winter mornings and the snow is too cold and dry to pack, well, that same thing happens here. That snow gets so cold that it will not want to pack to itself, and will have a tendency to stick to the plastic. The most simple fix to this issue is to simply temper your block. That just means to let it warm up a little. You can have it sit out and just start to get glossy. You do not want a sopping wet block of ice, just one that is becoming glossy. This will work flawlessly.
The other fix to that, is to use the handle of your ice chipper and tap the snow away that is sitting at the mouth of the chute. This will open that channel and prevent any backlog of the snow.
The third concern was one that we actually came up with. This is when the block ice is shaved down past the top pressure flap. If you have a nice piece of block ice, this will not happen, but if you have a block that has a poorly frozen or broken end, then once that pressure flap is free, the block can start spinning with the blade. We have just fixed this issue completely and will cover the details of this in another video at a later time. However, we do show you how well that shaver can now hold onto even a round, small block and shave it to the end.
The last concern was volume and speed control. Could this ice shaver be used in a high volume scenario? I will let the shaver speak for itself on this.
If you have any further questions, please let us know and we would be happy to create a video answer for you as well.

I LOVE SHAVE ICE WITH NO FLAVORS
I need a machine like this! ❄️💙 I love fluffy ice!
I didn't know that Snowie had block shavers! I LOVE block shavers!
Great video. That snow ice looks so yummy.
But his hands are dirty...
thats cool thumbs up great job!!!!!
It broke my pregnant heart seeing all that powder snow get thrown on the floor and wasted 😭
Trust me, we feel the same! Good to know we have true snow lovers out there!
Make sure you have the ice 20 min max. If the ice sits too long, the ice texture will be very bad. Put a cook timer next to the machine and adjust it 20 min. If it passes 20 min throw the ice in the freeze and get another one.
Nice
I would love to have this at home. Love that texture!
Have you seen our Little Snowie 2 Ice Shaver for the home? snowie.com/product/little-snowie/
despite the lack of higiene of the video presentation it was helpful...
Here is the thing. The ice must be between 0 and 10 F. If it is over 15F it will make chunky texture. There is a snowball store in my city. They always always use very very cold block ice. They have the fluffiest texture. They dont mention this but I have figured out.
Love it 😍😍😻😻😻🇧🇪🇧🇪
Mmm! That is what I call great snow ice. Yum! I have a question for you. I have a little snow cone machine at home. Is there a way that I can make snow more frostier like you do?
Typically, the colder your ice is, the finer the shave will be. Try experimenting with the temperature of your ice (straight out of the freezer versus tempering the ice before shaving) and see if it makes a difference. You can always give us a call at 801-268-2225 and our customer service reps can share some tips with you.
Wow, it is expensive and makes me nervous. How long do they last? How often do you have to get maintenance? Do you recommend buying 2 machines for a small business? I am at the beginning of this, and thank you.
Me: ooo I need a machine like this for my business:o
also me: Oh it’s 3,000 dollars...👁👄👁
I want that machine
How much for that machine
do you shop to philippines? please send me a brochure
Did you change your cars oil before you mad this video???? also what about the bottom of the treat. at what point does syrup go down?
Sorry for the greasy hands and band-aids. This was meant to be a technical video, so we didn't worry about that so much. Gregg works directly on the shavers and we wanted to quickly show some cool items with it. Also, I talk about the flavor reaching the bottom of the shaved ice. You don't want to pour enough flavor to saturate the whole thing. You only want to put about the amount we did there, and as they eat it, it will travel towards the bottom. I hope this helps.
Daniel Randall I've used this machine before and it is a beast! It produces a beautiful finish of fluffy soft snow. To get the flavor to "run" we used skewers to poke tiny little channels or holes in the snow that will help it go down. Once people taste the difference in a shaved ice than crushed, you will have them running back for more! (I'm not related to this company what-so-ever)...

Yes, you want your ice as cold, big, and round as you can get it. That will change everything!

Great Video... but that guy could have at least washed his nasty hands. Disgusting. I would pull this video off as quickly as possible, and make a new one, with a nice good looking girl wearing sanitary food gloves.
