Quality. A well made machine will cost you less in the long run. Quality means less down time, less breakdowns, more efficiency and better product.
Capacity. The capacity of a machine is measured in the servings per minute. Generally machines come in a high, medium and low capacity. If you run a self serve store then a low or medium capacity machine will work for you. However if you have a consistently busy line at your window you’ll want a high capacity machine.
Maintenance. Cleaning the machine is one of the most important factors you’ll have to deal with when in operation. Daily cleaning and sanitizing will be important because you’re dealing with diary products and health departments within county and state agencies will keep an eye out. Having a machine that is easy to clean makes your life and your employees life’s much easier and your operation more efficient.
