A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Make and use within service; soft, fusing ice is quality already lost.
Storage: Closed food-safe bin; a dedicated scoop stored outside the ice — never a glass; the machine on its cleaning and descale schedule.
- Iced latte, iced matcha latte and every cold build
- Frappé and milkshake blending
- Chilling and topping mint-lime sparkler and refreshers
- In blended fruit drinks, frozen fruit can replace ice — richer texture, zero dilution
Protocol, not habit: filtered water in; the dedicated scoop only — a chipped glass in the bin means discarding the whole bin; lid stays closed; machine cleaned and descaled on schedule, logged.
Ice is legally and practically a food — it takes the same hygiene rules as anything a guest swallows, and it is made only from filtered water. An off-tasting, cloudy cube ends up in the drink.
