The BlueIce M17.5 twin chamber slush machine is designed for venues that want a compact unit with two flavour capability and predictable daily performance. It is positioned as a premium, fast freeze option that can serve traditional slush flavours while also supporting a wider menu that includes milkshakes, iced coffees, and frozen cocktail options, helping you offer more from one machine.

This model uses two bowls and is commonly specified with a maximum mix capacity of 2 x 5 litres, with production time typically in the 30 to 40 minute range depending on conditions. It is designed to be practical for smaller counters while still giving you enough capacity to sell steadily through the day.

Commercial usability sits at the centre of the design. It runs from a standard 13 amp setup and focuses on straightforward operation, so teams can serve quickly and consistently. That helps when multiple staff members use the machine across shifts and you want consistent product quality without constant adjustment.

For operators who want a compact footprint but still need two flavours on offer, the M17.5 gives you a simple way to increase choice, improve impulse conversion, and keep service speed high during peaks.

Perfect for

The M17.5 is ideal for smaller sites that still need two flavour choice. It suits venues where counter space is limited but customers still expect variety, especially in high impulse categories like frozen drinks.

It fits cafés, takeaways, convenience stores, leisure kiosks, petrol forecourts, and seasonal concessions that want a compact twin option that is easy for staff to learn. It also works well in settings where you want one core flavour and one rotating special without changing the service routine.

This model supports simple promotion planning. You can keep a best selling flavour running permanently and use the second chamber for a themed option, a premium flavour, or a seasonal favourite, then switch that flavour without disrupting your core offer.

If you want to add frozen drinks with minimal complexity, while still offering two clear choices that help raise sales, the M17.5 is a practical twin chamber option.

Questions we are often asked:

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.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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
