Not published NOT PUBLISHED
Ice capacity
Not published NOT PUBLISHED
Practical capacity per batch depends on the food, how it is prepared and loaded, and the workflow around the machine. This site has not documented a tested practical capacity for this model, so practical-capacity fields are Not Published rather than guessed. Practical capacity is not the same as the manufacturer's rated or ice capacity.
Tray Area

Total tray area
About 1,170 square inches total (13 x 18 x 5), calculated from the published tray dimensions and count
CALCULATED
This figure is calculated from the published bundle tray size and count; the manufacturer may not state a total tray area itself. Pounds per batch and tray area measure different things: fruit slices, candy and herbs are often limited more by tray area than wet weight, while purees and liquids are limited by tray depth and surface. See the tray-area comparison guide.
