The Yahpetes electric ice shaver features a dual-blade system designed for fast processing in a home or light commercial setting. It utilizes 420 stainless steel blades, which are known for their high hardness and ability to maintain a sharp edge. The hopper is made of a 1.2mm aluminum alloy with a polished silver finish, providing a lightweight yet durable container for your ice. This unit is built to process up to 187 lbs of ice per hour when fed continuously.
Specifications show a 300W copper-wound motor that is adequate for intermittent use. Practical safety features include a micro-switch in the handle that stops the blades from rotating when the hopper is open. To help maintain consistent ice texture, it is useful to use slightly tempered ice rather than cubes fresh from a deep freezer. After use, wiping down the hopper and blades with a dry cloth will help prevent any oxidation of the aluminum and keep the unit clean.
The dual-blade design helps reduce the time needed to prepare a batch of treats compared to single-blade models. During operation, the unit produces a noise level around 85 decibels, which is common for this type of high-torque motor. Because the included tray is shallow, keeping a small towel nearby or using a deeper vessel can help manage any meltwater and keep your countertop dry and organized.
For a unit that features a quad-blade system for even more speed and balanced operation, the INSELY 4-Blade Electric Ice Shaver is a great alternative.
