How much shake capacity do I need?
Size your commercial shake machine based on your busiest 15 to 30 minutes, expected serving size, number of flavors, and refill routine. Compare each model’s output using the same serving-size basis, then confirm that the planned mix, available space, electrical service, and real peak demand align. For a specific recommendations, take our 30-second machine quiz to find out your right-size machine and monthly ROI. Or use Spaceman’s sizing guide to find the proper machine for your business.
What mix and texture requirements should be confirmed?
Confirm your shake mix, desired thickness, serving size, and machine settings with Spaceman and the mix supplier. Do not assume a recipe that performs well in one machine or setup will deliver the same results in another.
What cleaning and dairy-handling steps are required?
Follow the current model manual for cleaning and sanitizing all product-contact parts. Establish clear daily procedures for cleaning, flavor changes, allergen prevention, and dairy handling before service.
What space and electrical service does a commercial shake machine require?
Commercial shake machine requirements vary by model. Before ordering, compare the machine’s dimensions, weight, ventilation clearance, voltage, amperage, plug type, service access, and required counter or floor support. Review the current specification sheet with your installer and a qualified electrician.
Can the same machine serve protein shakes or smoothies?
Yes. Protein shakes and smoothies must be compatible with the specific machine and recipe. Before adding them to your menu, confirm the mix, sugar level, dairy content, desired thickness, serving size, and operating settings with Spaceman or the mix supplier.
How many shakes can a commercial machine serve during a rush?
Start with your busiest 15 to 30 minutes, not total daily sales. Compare your expected serving size and flavor count with the current 10-ounce output rating, hopper capacity, refill routine, and staff workflow for the 6690-CL, 6695-CL, or 6795-CL. Use Spaceman’s sizing guide to see rated output per minute, per flavor in ounces.
How much does a commercial shake machine cost?
The cost of a commercial shake machine depends on the number of flavors, countertop or floor placement, expected output, electrical setup, delivery, installation, and accessories. Compare the 6690-CL, 6695-CL, and 6795-CL against your peak demand, then request a current quote for the best fit.
