Scotsman Ice Makers: Commercial-Grade Ice for Your Outdoor Kitchen
Scotsman is the world's leading ice machine manufacturer, with over 50 years of experience building and refining ice-making technology for commercial and residential applications. They invented nugget ice in 1981, bringing it to the foodservice industry before anyone else, and have spent decades perfecting the machines that make it. Today, Scotsman distributes to more than 100 countries worldwide with over a million ice machines in service, and every machine is end-of-line tested before it leaves the factory. The Brilliance series brings that same commercial-grade standard home in two distinct models: the Brilliance Nugget and the Brilliance Cuber, both available in gravity drain and pump configurations, both rated for indoor and outdoor use, and both designed to fit a 15" outdoor kitchen cutout.
Scotsman Brilliance Nugget (SRN110): The Original Chewable Ice® at Home
The Scotsman Brilliance Nugget SRN110 produces up to 110 lbs of nugget ice per day, the same soft, chewable, craveable ice Scotsman invented for the commercial industry in 1981, now purpose-built for residential outdoor kitchens. Nugget ice is softer and more porous than gourmet cubes, which means it chills drinks faster, absorbs the flavor of cocktails and sodas, and is significantly gentler on glassware. The SRN110 also uses 40% less energy and more than 50% less water than comparable gourmet cube ice machines, making it the more efficient choice for everyday home use.
- 110 lbs of Daily Ice Production: The SRN110 produces up to 110 lbs of nugget ice per day, stored in an insulated 26 lb bin. Ice cycles through continuously as it's made, keeping a fresh, cold supply on hand around the clock.
- AgION® Antimicrobial Protection: The SRN110 is equipped with AgION®, a silver-based antimicrobial compound molded directly into key internal food-zone components. It works between cleanings to inhibit the growth of bacteria, mold, and slime on internal surfaces.
- Custom Panel Ready: The SRN110's concealed door hinge system and field-reversible door accept a custom wood or panel overlay to match surrounding cabinetry, giving it a fully integrated look in any outdoor kitchen design.
- Available in Gravity Drain and Pump Configurations: The gravity drain model requires a floor-level drain nearby. The pump model includes a built-in drain pump that can push water up and away from the unit, giving you more flexibility in drain placement during installation.
Scotsman Brilliance Cuber (SRC065): Crystal-Clear Gourmet Ice
The Scotsman Brilliance Cuber SRC065 produces up to 65 lbs of gourmet clear ice per day, the kind of slow-melting, visually striking cube you'd expect in a high-end cocktail bar or restaurant. The SRC065 achieves that clarity through Scotsman's inverted evaporator system, which freezes ice from the bottom up and pushes air and impurities out as the cube forms, resulting in a completely clear, taste-free, odorless cube every time.
- 65 lbs of Daily Clear Ice Production: The SRC065 produces up to 65 lbs of gourmet clear cubes per day, stored in an insulated 26 lb bin. Ice cycles through continuously as it's made, keeping a steady supply of slow-melting, crystal-clear cubes ready when you need them.
- Inverted Evaporator System: Scotsman's proprietary freezing process builds each cube from the bottom up, expelling air and dissolved minerals as the ice forms. The result is a crystal-clear, dense, slow-melting cube that won't dilute your drink or leave a cloudy residue in the glass.
- Custom Panel Ready: The SRC065 features a concealed door hinge system and field-reversible door that accept a custom panel for a seamless built-in appearance.
- Available in Gravity Drain and Pump Configurations: The gravity drain model suits installations with a nearby floor drain. The pump model offers more installation flexibility with a built-in pump that moves wastewater up and away from the unit.
