What’s the difference between ice cream and gelato dipping cabinets?
Generally speaking, ice cream dipping cabinets have a lower holding temperature than gelato dipping cabinets. Because of this, it is not suggested that you store gelato in ice cream units. Also, typically gelato dipping cabinets use 5L pans to hold product, whereas ice cream dipping cabinets are designed to hold 3-gallon tubs.
Why is my ice cream tub spinning when I scoop?
As the ice cream gets low, the tub no longer has the weight to remain in place. The cover of the tub has 4 slots for the included clips (packaged separately) that can be used to provide extra holding power to the tub as to prevent unwanted spinning.
Why is the set temperature so cold?
The factory-set temperature of -15°F to -11°F reflects the cabinet's operating range, but the ideal product temperature for scooping ice cream is typically between 6°F and 10°F. The specific set temperature needed to reach the ideal product temperature may vary depending on the brand of ice cream and its butterfat content.
