Portable Nugget Ice Maker Countertop

This Nugget Ice Maker from Velleora Home Decor is the entry-size model, built for a household that wants chewable pellet ice without giving up a large piece of worktop to get it.

Nugget ice is made by compacting flakes rather than freezing a solid block, which is why it is soft enough to chew and why it takes on the flavour of whatever it is sitting in. It also chills a drink faster than cubes because there is far more ice surface touching the liquid.

It runs from a standard socket with no plumbing, so it can move between a kitchen, a garden table and a caravan. Water goes in the reservoir, ice collects in a basket, and unused ice melts back to be refrozen. Use fresh drinking water, empty and dry the reservoir between uses, clean it regularly, and stand it level with clear ventilation around the vents.
