The optics of the Crushers is once OK. Now not necessarily a looker, but not annoying.
The size is also ok, so you can let him sometimes standing outside without too much floor space to waste.
After unpacking, one wonders first time, what probably is the round plastic cover for the feed tube since. Probably to work only to the contrary dustiness. Well, does not hurt so.
Then shortly after reading the manual. Is anyway rather clearly.
Filling the ice only when the machine is running, aja.
Do not run more than 4 minutes, so that.
Then cool for 30 minutes ähhämmm ???
So a larger party you can forget probably.
Then the first test.
First switching on. The machine remains pleasantly quiet.
According to the manual placing the ice cubes on the mirror-door (why this is actually a mirror?) And helps to easily, if the door does not open by the weight of the ice. I do not know with which ice men ought to work here, I had to help my with much emphasis, as the flap but is rather difficult. This one has a good view of the rotating blade, well if you like it.
If the ice finally pure, then it heist door quickly again, otherwise the ice chips fly a counter.
Now you can listen to the machine when working. That's pretty violent, but still within the tolerance range. Also will not last too long.
Then, when the ice is by este, the next can be inserted. Before, I would not do it, otherwise as I said fly the shards of ice.
So it goes on then, always with an eye on the clock. 4 minutes are damn fast rum!
If you've finally enough ice in the receiver (or the 4 minutes around :-)), so we switched off the machine.
So ice for two glasses you manage already.
The generated Crush Ice is fine for my taste. Although there are also coarser pieces, but also a lot of small, scraped ice. This is probably due to the principle of rotating blades could not be otherwise.
My first test was a caipirinha. For this, the ice is definitely not suitable. Shortly after the introduction of the liquid, the fine ice has already melted and only swim a few pieces of ice above.
Conclusion:
My aversion to electric ice crusher has fully confirmed this here.
Firstly, the operation is a game of patience, and the result is not too convincing. Add to that the loud instructions very short operating time.
I have not tested it but wrapped up the crusher again and returned.
Besides, a lot then also on that inside forms a water reservoir. I have to let it dry Crusher three days and then packed. When transporting it was wrong and then it was still neat water out. For an electric crusher really an absurdity.
