Chill Ice Cream Machine by National Equipment IC8

If you’re overpaying for a soft serve machine that can’t keep up, it’s time to stop settling. The Chill Cream IC8 was built for the real world. It handles volume, grinds through long shifts, and actually respects your budget.

Most machines either tap out under pressure or cost more than your monthly rent. That’s a terrible deal when you’re trying to run a busy shop. The IC8 pumps out up to 32 quarts an hour. That’s around 250-plus cones without missing a beat. And it does it from a compact, heavy-duty frame that won’t eat up your space or your sanity.

No plastic junk here. The IC8 is stainless steel front to back. It’s simple to clean, built to last, and ready for daily use. It runs on a standard 220V single-phase circuit, pulls just 11.4 amps, and uses 2.5 kWh. In plain terms, it cranks without punishing your power bill.

Quick tip on setup. leave about six inches on each side for airflow. The back can go flush against the wall, no problem, but you don’t want to choke off ventilation. Give it a little breathing room and you’re golden.

The Chill Cream IC8 isn’t some flashy gimmick. It just works. It makes you money, holds up under pressure, and doesn’t require a second mortgage. If you want a machine that actually shows up for the job, this is the one.
