Stalgast Disc in Cubes 10x10 for Ice Machines

A Stalgast disc in cubes 10x10 transforms an ice machine into a source of uniform square cubes. The disc sits inside the freezing chamber, its grid of 10 mm square cells shaping the water as it freezes. Each cell fills completely, so every cube emerges identical in size and clarity, without hollows or irregular edges that can melt unevenly or jam dispensers.

The process starts when water flows over the disc. As the machine cools the chamber, ice forms within each cell, building from the walls inward until the entire grid is solid. Once the cycle finishes, the machine releases the cubes by briefly warming the disc, loosening the ice so it drops cleanly into the storage bin below. No manual breaking or scraping is needed; the disc's design ensures the cubes separate without sticking to one another or to the disc itself.

To use the disc, the operator removes the existing freezing plate or mould from the ice machine and fits the 10x10 mm disc in its place. The machine's water feed and freezing cycle remain unchanged; only the shape of the ice changes. After installation, the machine resumes production, filling the storage bin with 10 mm square cubes ready for drinks, buffet displays or chilled food presentation.

The disc is a single piece of food-safe plastic, rigid enough to hold its shape through repeated freezing and thawing cycles. Its compact 10x10 mm grid maximises the number of cubes produced per cycle while keeping each cube small enough to chill drinks quickly without diluting them too fast. The uniform size also makes portioning predictable, whether for cocktails, soft drinks or self-service ice stations.

Cleaning follows the same routine as the original freezing plate: remove the disc, rinse under warm water to melt any residual ice, and sanitise according to the machine manufacturer's guidelines. The smooth plastic surface resists mineral build-up, so regular cleaning maintains cube clarity and machine efficiency.

This disc fits Stalgast ice machines designed for interchangeable freezing plates. It is listed under catering equipment consumables in the Stalgast catalogue.
