How to produce Ice Blocks | THE CLINEBELL PROCESS

[@HonzukiNoGekokujou]

Huh, I never knew how this worked. The video was informative and engaging the whole time! Thanks!

[@iceventura8140]

Thank you! 🙏

[@Sheeshlizardad]

Thank you for sharing!

Kung e du Törna! Så jäkla gött att du är hantverkare i is!

[@ianmcallister9508]

Thanks for the video! I'm getting dialed in with our CI-4. I'm curious - what is the material of the white liner you use in the pans when freezing the cut cubes?

[@PaddyIrishman]

Hi, great video. Why put the ice cube sback inthe freezer? Are they not ready to go after being cut into cubes?

[@mattviolet]

no, they'll start to melt a bit, so will have a slightly wet exterior. if you were to bag them straight away they'd freeze to each other in the bag as the wet exteriors would fuse.

[@ChristianMercadoAcevedo]

outstanding!

[@rickardholmstrom533]

Fantastiskt! Behöver du en lärling? 😁

[@mindingplus2783]

Hi, your video looks great! Could you please write me a document the process from start to finish how it works.

[@jshippjr]

How do you make the spheres? Do you turn the cubes into spheres or is there a shaping machine that is used?

[@iceventura8140]

It depends which ones of the spheres you mean. Most of them are hand carved out of big clear ice blocks, but some, the smaller ones, are made in a Hoshizaki Ice machine.

[@klaudism1]

What kind of paper are you putting in the tray under the cubes?

[@Vitor108]

Great question! Can someone answer it?

[@iceventura8140]

The same sheets as when you baking cinnemon buns. :)

[@jessebojorquez6617]

Awesome video! Is the room you’re filming in a huge refrigerator?

[@iceventura8140]

No it's our ice factory with reg room temp. Inside the factory, we have a pretty large freezing room though. :)

[@therikbocanegra]

I’m wondering what type of oil you’re using for the chainsaw?

[@biggieb400]

Thanks for the process overview. Great video. What are the specs on the band saw blade? Stainless steel? How many teeth per inch or cm??

[@SuperSebster]

Stainless and classified to use for food production.

[@AnaFernandezArtist]

Does the pump get frozen into the block to be cut out later?

[@iceventura8140]

Hi! The trick is to lift the block before it has completely 100% frozen to the top. Also, leaving the pumps in so they get frozen will damaged them.

[@ThugLife2407]

What temperature do you keep your freezer at for your cubes?

[@iceventura8140]

We have a freezing room and we keep that one at around -20 degrees celcius. When you store your clear ice at home that freezer usually keeps the same temp (-20 degrees celcius). I would recommend low temp on your freezer IF you have the patience to "temp" the ice everytime before you serve it. :) When keeping clear ice stored at -20, a bit depending on the room temp and humidity, the ice will need at least 10-15 min to adjust temp before being served in a drink, otherwise it will crack.

[@ThugLife2407]

Are the dimensions of those zip loc plastic bags 16x8?

[@iceventura8140]

Hi Jimmy! That is 10x14 inche bag I use in the video.

[@gabberghoul]

What material is used as the liner on the sheet pan for the cubes?

[@iceventura8140]

The same sheets as when you baking cinnemon buns. :)

[@mixtravel7095]

Hey great video ! Btw what paper you used for those ice blocks to freeze again? Does it absorb water? And it doesn’t stick to ice again?

[@aniket917]

Even I wanted to ask the same question, did you get an answer though?

[@patelakash1010]

what paper he used on that tray to set it back into freezer?

[@iceventura8140]

The same sheets as when you baking cinnemon buns. :)

[@Pandach_1]

Just got the notification for this video 13 hours later....?

[@billcv80]

Do you use bar oil on chainsaw

[@iceventura8140]

No oil at all. Only on the chain when I clean it and then food graded lubricate.

[@KLXIIIYL]

Approximately how many cubes do you get per ice block?

[@SuperSebster]

Depends the size of the cube I want to cut, but around 500.

[@lybo_tv]

Grymt

[@sambhavmehta3366]

Amazing Video and Very Informative. One of the only videos I have seen of clear ice which gives so much details. I have a few questions Which band saw do you use to cut ice? How can we get the accuracy of Cutting Cubes? And what is the recovery in every block, like how much is the wastage in each 115kg block?

[@iceventura8140]

Thank you so much for kind words! 🙏 Send me an email and I try to answer all your questions. :) [e-mail]

[@zwiirm]

Får kanske börja röja i garaget här hemma och investera i lite maskiner 😅

[@troublemaker131]

Don't these cubes later stick together in one ?

[@iceventura8140]

You absolutely have a point! If you pack "wet" ice and then pack them tight in bag they will freeze together. Even though its pretty easy to divide them again it still something to avoid. Freeze the ice cubes a bit seperated for a few hours and then pack them tighjt in a bag. Then they dont stick together at all.. :)

[@troublemaker131]

@@iceventura8140 so you cut ice freeze it Pack it Freeze it again 🙄👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽 Now I understand 😀

[@iceventura8140]

@@troublemaker131 Exactly! :D

[@marcbrammer5532]

How much do you sell them for?

[@iceventura8140]

If you mean what we sell the ice blocks for the answer is circa $500 each but it depends.

[@parveersingh2621]

Amazing work Who is your customer for these ice cubes

[@iceventura8140]

Hi! The main part of our clients are cocktail bars and restaurants. :)

[@beanski5226]

What kind of band saw do you use

[@iceventura8140]

We have a few different ones. But mainly we work with a band saw brand called MADO.

[@joakimnilsson261]

Fascinerande är bara förnamnet.

[@ColeJakobs-do5hx]

What size bags are you using?

[@iceventura8140]

In this video Im using standard liners provided by Clinebell.

[@colejakobs658]

Could you shoot me a message somehow? Or I can message you my email. I have some random questions if you’d be willing to help!

[@Mamedov84]

How much this machine ?

[@iceventura8140]

You can get a ice block machine within the range of $5000-10000. It depends how big blocks you like to produce and also from what maker you buy them.

[@FreddyFermin]

Microplastics, manual contamination, oily chainsaw... I hope you don't serve these to real customers.

[@iceventura8140]

Hi my friend! Im glad you found me so you know can learn hoiw it works. :). All plastics, lubricates etc we use is classified for food production so all good there. Also, we are under strict control by authorities reg maintaining top quality of hygiene, enviromental care and other rules and regulations. By cutting ice block with chain saw may seem a bit weird but I can ensure you that the surface that the chain saw come in contact with, will never touch the final ice product. :) I hope this helps you a bit more. Let me know if you have any more questions. Best regards, Sebastian
