Scotsman Ice & Water Dispensers
The Scotsman range of ice and water dispensers are ideal for the safe and hygienic serving of both water and ice in public areas.
The touch-free functionality makes them ideal for self-service applications as the operator simply places the glass beneath the spout to activate the machine. The enclosed storage bin keeps the ice away from contamination, making them a great choice for hospitals and care homes limiting points of contact which maintains maximum hygiene.

Features of the Scotsman DXN 187 include
• Compact ice or ice & water automatic dispenser, with appealing, contemporary “touch-screen” design.
• Ideal for free-refill self-service concepts with up to 1200 glasses filled per day and capable of dispensing ice for up to 100 customers in queue at one time.
• Available either touch-free or button activated.
• Possible to set ice only or ice & water on site and desired ice dosage (from 1’’ to 15’’ or continuous).
• Fast & friendly cleaning mode for the end user.
• Full frontal visibility of settings and errors for preventative service check-up.
Scotsman Cubelet Ice
Cubelet ice is made from pieces of hard compacted flake ice, which have a slow melt rate. Cubelet ice machines are perfect for busy quick service restaurants, bars and all other food service operators as it can be produced quickly and in large quantities relative to the machines foot print. The compressed ‘pellets’ of ice have high displacement making it the ideal ice for soft drinks, especially for those who offer ‘bottomless’ refills.

Scotsman mixes latest ice technologies and trending cocktails at LCF 2025
Stand SO4, London Coffee Festival, The Truman Brewery, London, 15-18 May 2025
Ice is now a must have for any serious coffee menu. At the London Coffee Festival leading icemaker brand Scotsman, and its UK distributor, Hubbard Systems, will be showing off both the latest ice maker technology and the latest trends in iced coffee recipes along with cocktails, mocktails and more.
On stand will be a prototype of the upcoming Scotsman Supercuber undercounter ice machine, due to launch in October. Combining the latest environment-friendly technology with outstanding aesthetics, its energy- and water-saving features will reduce the operator’s carbon footprint and their running costs, while its advanced hygiene systems enhance ice safety and save staff time. The Supercuber makes gourmet ice that’s crystal clear and long lasting.
Also on stand is the new DXN187 ice and iced water dispenser. This attractively sleek and compact counter top machine makes cubelet ice, which has a slow melt rate and is ideal for self-serve in, for example, cafeterias and fast food outlets. Like all Scotsman’s popular machines it runs on R290, a natural, ‘green’ refrigerant. Despite its small footprint, it can make up to 120kg of ice per day, and its bin holds enough to serve 200 customers, one after the other. It’s customisable, so operators can select touch or touch-free dispensing.
Visitors will be able to check out top barista Michalis Dimitrakopoulos, World Coffee in Good Spirits Champion 2016, who will be demonstrating a variety of coffee-based iced drinks, both soft and alcoholic. And, of course, there’ll be a chance to sample some of them!
The ice experts from Hubbard Systems will be on stand throughout the show to discuss all aspects of coffee and ice – including which type of ice is best for different applications.

BlogNext generation flake ice machine features improved technology and connectivity
Scotsman Ice has released its next generation MXF flake ice maker. Supplied by Hubbard Systems, the new models include a range of new features that give it significant improvements on productivity, efficiency, and ease of use and maintenance. The use of flake ice is increasing across a diverse range of sectors, including hospitality, food manufacture, the fishing industry, transportation, medical therapy and laboratories. The MXF provides a powerful, flexible and eco-friendly solution to their needs.
The icemaking system has been completely redesigned, with a new core evaporator, a new noise-free gearmotor and an innovative ice breaker that produces ‘super flake’, a very dry flake ice with just 12% water content.
The MXF has been designed to be easy to clean, with simple instructions displayed on the control panel for staff to follow. To ensure that the internal system remains in peak condition it is fitted with the XSafe UV automatic disinfection system as standard. All major components that require regular service can be accessed from the front of the unit, making it easy to maintain.
The MXF also features Scotsman’s new XWave connectivity system, offering full remote control of the icemaker via web or the specially designed app for smartphones and tablets. For example, it allows for automatic self-cleaning programs to be scheduled and is integrated with the XSafe system to provide alerts when further management or maintenance is required.
As with all new Scotsman ice machines from January 2025, the MXF uses a natural refrigerant with a low carbon footprint impact. Combined with the new icemaking systems this greatly reduces energy consumption compared to previous models.
Constructed from hard wearing stainless steel, the MXF is available in a range of production capacities from 133kg to 500kg per 24 hours.

Progressive Water Discharge (PWD)
PWD is the smart, pressurized discharge system that will allow you to reach remote water drains to dispose of the left over water at the end of each production cycle, as well as the water resulting from the ice melting over time in the storage bin. A non-return valve prevents any potential drain water back-flush into the system, greatly improving the overall hygiene of the ice machine.
Machines can be installed up to 15m away from the nearest drain and 1.5m below it!
