BlueIce Bubble Tea Machine DR5 Twin Chamber

Chilled bubble tea service made simple. Two chambers ready for quick builds. Built for consistent temperature and clean presentation.

The BlueIce DR5 is a twin chamber chilled beverage dispenser designed to support bubble tea service and other cold drinks where temperature consistency matters. It is positioned as a multi purpose unit that can handle bubble tea, fruit juice, milkshakes, smoothies, iced tea, and drinks containing particles, helping you widen your menu beyond a single product line.

This model is typically specified with two 5 litre containers, which gives you flexibility to run two base options side by side, such as different teas, flavoured mixes, or complementary drink types depending on your menu. Independent control for cooling and stirring helps you keep drinks at serving temperature and maintain a consistent finish throughout service.

The DR5 is designed for commercial usability, with a stainless steel build and detachable containers that support day to day cleaning routines. That matters in bubble tea service where hygiene, speed, and consistency all affect repeat orders and staff confidence.

If you want a practical way to standardise chilled drink prep and speed up service, the DR5 gives you a twin chamber platform that helps your team serve quickly, keep product consistent, and maintain a cleaner working routine.

Perfect for

The DR5 is ideal for cafés, dessert bars, bubble tea counters, and takeaway sites where you want a consistent chilled base ready to serve. It supports faster builds because staff spend less time chilling, mixing, and correcting temperature during busy periods.

It works well in venues that want two clear options on offer at all times. You can run a core favourite and a second option that rotates with promotions, seasons, or customer demand, without disrupting your workflow.

This model suits operators who want cleaner routines. Detachable containers support easier cleaning, and independent cooling and stirring controls help keep product stable through the day, which reduces waste and improves consistency.

If you want bubble tea service that feels more reliable and more scalable, the DR5 supports a simple two chamber approach that helps you keep quality steady while trade grows.

Questions we are often asked:

How long does it take to get the first batch ready.

Many commercial slush machines reach serving consistency in about 60 to 120 minutes, depending on the mix, fill level, and room temperature. Higher powered machines and a colder starting mix can reduce that time.

What power supply do I need.

Many commercial slush machines run from a standard UK 13A socket using a normal three pin plug. Check the model spec and avoid extension leads where possible

Do you need ventilation space around the machine

Yes, you should leave clearance so the unit can shed heat and avoid overheating. Some suppliers specify minimum ventilation gaps, so follow the installation guidance for your exact model

What mix should I use

Use a slush syrup or premix designed for slush machines and follow the stated water to concentrate ratio. Incorrect ratios can stop the product freezing properly or create poor texture

Why is my slush coming out too runny or too icy

Sugar level matters, since low sugar can freeze into large crystals and high sugar can extend freeze time. Many manufacturers refer to measuring and adjusting brix or mix ratio to correct consistency

Can I put alcohol in a slush machine

Yes, but you need to keep alcohol content low enough for the mix to freeze. Many frozen drink guides recommend roughly 5 to 10 percent ABV for reliable freezing

Can I use fizzy drinks in a slush machine

Some machines can handle carbonated drinks, but you should check the manufacturer guidance for your model first. Carbonation and foaming can affect results and cleaning needs

How often should I clean and sanitise my slush machine

Many operators clean weekly to prevent residue build up, then do a deeper internal clean around monthly. Follow your manual and local food hygiene procedures, especially for taps and nozzles

Do you need to use chill mode before freeze mode

Some machines and suppliers recommend a period in chill mode before switching to freeze to help avoid over freezing and protect consistency. Follow the operating guidance for your exact unit and product

Are slush ice drinks suitable for young children

Some slush drinks use glycerol, also called E422, to create the slush effect with less sugar. UK food safety guidance warns they are not suitable for children under 4, and suggests businesses minimise glycerol to what is technically necessary
