ICE PRESSES
One of the main products of our company is all kinds of ice presses. Any ice press with its own temperature and weight can make any form and shape from an ice cube.
Specifications & features of ice presses
We have various kinds of diamond ice press and sphere ice press that can help you in making any premium cocktail.One of the primary design features among clear ice presses is the method employed for draining water from the metal ice mold.
Both presses are made of the finest material – aluminum. It is a good material for conduction.The metal is warm, and the ice block is cold. When these varying surface temperatures come into contact, they engage in a race to reach an equilibrium point. As the metal in ice shape press cools down, the block of custom ice warms up, and the greater the temperature difference (for instance, by heating the press), the faster the ice block transforms into a distinctive ice press sphere shape.
So we recommend you to immerse the ice press in hot water before its second use to preheat it. The ice blocks in clear ice presses will get the form you need and there will be slow melting if you follow the aforementioned recommendations.
Perfect for Both Home Bars and Professional High-Volume Venues
1. Single-Shape Presses (Home & Boutique Bars): Compact, easy-to-use presses ideal for cocktail enthusiasts wanting to elevate their home bar experience, or small venues making individual drinks to order.
2. Multi-Shape Professional Presses (Commercial Use): For high-volume bars, we manufacture heavy-duty units capable of pressing 4 identical shapes simultaneously. This allows a single bartender to maintain efficiency and output during peak hours without sacrificing premium presentation.
Advantages of ice press machines
Ice press is one of the most popular forms of premium ice. BF TECH can make them in different shapes and sizes. The main advantage of ice cube press is high-quality aluminum, all sizes are almost always available. We also manufacture presses for professionals in this business, i.e. large 18kg units that can make 4 identical shapes at once. This is very convenient when only 1 person works with them and has to make a large number of forms from premium ice. One more advantage of the ice shaper press is the possibility to make a perfect cocktail from the block ice in the ice tray and using all the necessary bar accessories.
The Science of Slow-Melting: Why Ice Spheres are Superior
The main advantage of using an ice press to create a perfect sphere or diamond is not just aesthetics, but physics. A sphere has the lowest surface area-to-volume ratio of any geometric shape. This means an ice ball crafted by our aluminum press will chill a premium spirit or cocktail rapidly while melting significantly slower than standard ice cubes. This minimizes water dilution, preserving the original flavor profile of the drink from the first sip to the last.

Is ice press better than ice mold?
Yes, significantly better. Silicone or plastic ice molds require you to freeze water inside them, which almost always traps air bubbles and impurities, resulting in cloudy ice that cracks easily in a drink. An ice press, however, shapes a pre-made, solid block of crystal-clear ice. The press simply carves the perfect geometric shape out of a pure ice block, ensuring your final sphere or diamond is 100% transparent and structurally flawless.
How does an ice press work?
An ice press requires no electricity; it operates entirely on gravity and thermal conductivity. Here is the step-by-step process: 1. Preparation: Start with a perfectly clear, slightly oversized ice cube (ideally produced via directional freezing). 2. Placement: Place the clear ice cube into the center of the bottom half of the aluminum press. 3. The Pressing Process: Slide the top half of the press down onto the ice. Because aluminum is an excellent conductor of heat, the ambient warmth of the heavy metal rapidly melts the cold ice block. 4. Extraction: Guided by the internal mold and the weight of the metal (gravity), the ice is flawlessly shaped into a sphere, diamond, or polygon within a minute. Open the press and extract your perfect cocktail ice.
Should I heat the ice press?
The ice press must be warmed up after each use, because aluminum cools quickly, but it also heats up quickly, so it is enough to put the press under warm water and it will quickly gain temperature
