Frequently asked questions

What equipment does a gelato laboratory need?

A classic gelato laboratory needs a pasteuriser to prepare the mix, a batch freezer to freeze it and a blast chiller to harden the finished gelato. For a smaller café, a combination machine (Compacta, VariO Icona) is a good fit, as it pasteurises and freezes in one unit.

What is the difference between gelato and soft-serve ice cream?

Gelato is made in batches, contains less air and is served from a display case. Soft serve is made continuously in a soft-serve machine and served straight from the machine.

Do you organise gelato training courses?

Yes, together with Iceteam 1927 and Aromaitalia we regularly organise gelato training courses for both beginners and experienced gelato makers.

Does the equipment come with a warranty and maintenance?

Yes, Iceteam 1927 equipment comes with a 2-year warranty. We install, set up and maintain the equipment in cooperation with Haktek OÜ, and together with Iceteam 1927 and Aromaitalia we also organise gelato training courses.
