Finding the Appropriate Saniserv Unit
Once one comes to the undeniable fact that Saniserv is the only brand to use in purchasing a soft serve ice cream, yogurt, or milkshake maker, the next decision to make is what type of unit you need to purchase. One of the most important factors you must determine before purchasing the appropriate Saniserv unit is the amount of ice cream or yogurt you may need to yield per minute. Saniserv units are available in low, medium or high volumes.
Each volume is measured in a per minute value. For example Saniserv low volume units can produce either two-3oz servings of product per minute or two-4oz servings per minute. Medium volume units can be defined as two-12oz servings, three-12oz servings, five-4oz servings, four-4oz servings and three-12oz servings. High volume Saniserv units can be defined as five-16oz servings, seven-4oz servings, ten-4oz servings and fourteen-4oz servings.
Sizes and Flavors
Another important aspect to consider is how many different flavors do you wish to have featured on a machine. Saniserv offers machines with one, two and three flavors. The two most popular flavors of any ice cream or yogurt are vanilla and chocolate. Often retailers use the third flavor to create a swirl or twist by combining the best of both worlds. You may also use this third flavor to make a flavor of the month.
One good suggestion is to make these flavors seasonal. For example maybe in March you have a chocolate mint ice cream green in color for St. Patrick’s Day. Size is also an important thing in determining the ideal Saniserv unit. Saniserv units are available anywhere between 14’’-26’’ in width. The Height of these units can vary between 25.5’’-61.5’’. Finally the depth of these units can range between 23.75’’-32.5’’. Often these units are conversely associated with the volume size and the amount of cups produced per minute.

Saniserv batch freezers are available in either a five or ten quart capacity. The five quart freezer has dimensions of width 17’’, height 30’’ and depth 24’’.

It’s Served the Profits That Is
As many retailers know many times dessert is an excellent way to make money. These units cannot only benefit any frozen yogurt or ice cream store, but also any restaurant, club, hotel, or retailer. Before deciding which Saniserv unit is right for your business there are several things you must consider. First the amount of volume your unit needs to produce is an important factor.
If you are only a frozen yogurt or ice cream shop you may want to purchase a higher volume-yielding unit than if your just going to serve it in a diner lets say. Secondly how many flavors does your unit need to dispense at a time. Lastly how big of a unit are you looking for it is important to measure correctly.
