Answer
I have one. It works great for a family, but doesn't have near enough capacity to keep up with the demands of a restaurant, no matter how small. It makes about 12 cubes every 6-15 minutes - enough for one tall glass of iced tea or soda. It may make 26 lbs of ice a day, but it only stores about 60 cubes (1 lb) at at time. If the ice isn't used, it melts back into the reservoir for refreezing. Two tables with four customers each will use all of that ice.
You pour about 1 gallon of water into a reservoir. A pump draws water into a small oblong bucket. Cooling probes dip into the bucket of water. Ice forms around the probes. After about 6-15 minutes, the probes are heated and the cubes drop off and are pushed into a holding bin. The size of the cubes determine how long it takes to make the ice - larger cubes = longer time.
