BlueIce Ice Cream Machine T46A - Table Top

Twin twist choice. Pump fed control. Extremely high output. Built for premium texture and tighter overrun control at pace.

The BlueIce T46A takes the same two flavours plus twist format and high output intent as the T46, then adds a key upgrade. It supports pump fed operation, which gives you more control over overrun and can deliver a smoother, lighter serve profile when configured correctly.

This matters for premium positioning and margin. Better control helps you maintain consistency through sustained peaks, reduce variation between operators, and improve yield when settings and mix remain consistent.

The T46A still targets extremely high throughput, so it suits outlets that serve continuously. You keep the selling power of twin twist choice, then add the product finish advantages that come with pump fed control.

Choose the T46A when you want twin twist choice, very high output, and a more premium serve profile than the gravity model can deliver.

Perfect for

The T46A suits premium dessert venues, high volume leisure sites, and hospitality counters where customers notice quality and you need to serve quickly. It fits sites that want twin twist choice and a more refined product finish.

It is ideal when you want to improve yield and consistency. Pump fed operation supports tighter control over the final serve, which helps protect margin and maintain a repeatable customer experience.

This model also suits venues that run heavy promotions and seasonal flavour pairings. Two flavours plus twist supports marketing variety, while pump control helps keep the serve result stable when demand spikes.

If you want the output of a top tier twin twist unit with more control over texture and yield, the T46A is the better fit than the standard gravity model.

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
