Chill Ice Cream Machine by National Equipment IC8

If you’re shelling out for a soft serve machine that slows down the second things get busy, you’re doing it wrong. The Chill Cream IC8 was made for real shops that don’t have time for breakdowns or budget-busting equipment. It runs hard, handles the rush, and still keeps your numbers looking good.

Most machines either crumble when the pressure’s on or cost more than your rent. Neither one makes sense when you’re trying to keep customers happy and cash flowing. The IC8 cranks out up to 32 quarts an hour, which means more than 250 cones without breaking stride. And it does it from a compact, heavy-duty frame that won’t hog your floor space or make you want to pull your hair out.

Everything is stainless steel, front to back. No flimsy plastic parts that warp, crack, or turn into a headache. Cleanup is quick, it’s built to take a beating, and it’s ready to go every single day. It runs on a standard 220V single-phase circuit, pulls just 11.4 amps, and uses 2.5 kWh. Translation? It works hard without hammering your electric bill.

When you set it up, leave about six inches on each side for airflow. The back can sit flush against the wall, no problem. Just give it that breathing room and you’re set.

The Chill Cream IC8 isn’t about flashy gimmicks or overpromises. It’s about showing up, every day, ready to make you money. If you want a soft serve machine that actually pulls its weight, this is the one you put in your shop.
