Hospitality Connect carries 8 commercial milkshake makers and drink mixers for cafes, milk bars, diners and takeaway venues. The range covers spindle drink mixers and matching stainless steel mixing cups, with brands including Roband, Sammic and Apuro.
Spindle count is the main decision. A single spindle mixer is enough for a cafe making the occasional shake, while a double or triple spindle lets one person build several drinks at once through a lunch rush. Motor rating is the second consideration, because a heavier motor handles hard ice cream without stalling. Finally, check the cup supplied with the machine and whether spare cups are available, since a spare in rotation lets you keep serving while one is being washed.
