Ice blender

For modern housewives, crushed ice is just as necessary a product as, for example, spices. As a product, it is used for the preparation of alcoholic and non-alcoholic cocktails, for shakes, as well as for dishes that require decoration in the form of an “icy fur coat”. Of course, you can buy ice chips in the store in the freezing department, but it is much more convenient and economical to prepare it yourself. An ice blender can help you with this, and in most cases it is just an ordinary blender with a knife-nozzle for chopping ice products.

Features and benefits

  1. As a rule, the chopper knife is placed in a closed container, so that the fragments do not accidentally injure.
  2. Knives for chopping are equipped with models of medium and high power, from 400 watts.
  3. Blenders with an ice-nozzle are designed to grind large chunks to size.
  4. Knives for chopping ice are completed with both submersible models and stationary ones.
  5. Some manufacturers, such as Braun, prudently offer to buy a jug-nozzle for splitting ice separately, in case you thought about this option later than you purchased a blender.
  6. It should be noted that the knife nozzle for chopping is great for frozen fruit and nuts.

How to choose?

When choosing a blender for splitting ice, please note that this process does less damage to glass and metal containers, but plastic containers can be very damaged. The model for chopping ice products should be powerful: the more powerful the device, the easier it will be to cope with ice.

Be sure to make sure that the blender has a special ice cap.

It is desirable that the buttons of the device do not work by inadvertently pressing, but it took some effort to start the process. The presence of the function "pulse mode" will allow more thoroughly crush the ice. Equally important is the reliability of technology. Prefer well-established manufacturers and models that have positive feedback from buyers.
