The Choice: A Guide to Gravity-Fed vs. Pump-Fed

▼ Gravity-Fed Machines

These machines use the force of gravity to feed the soft serve mix from the hopper into the freezing cylinder. This straightforward mechanism results in a high-quality, dependable product.

  • Produces a denser, richer product texture.
  • Generally features a simpler design, facilitating straightforward cleaning and maintenance.
  • An excellent choice for businesses with standard volume needs.
Ideal For: Cafes, small restaurants, and businesses where operational simplicity is a priority.

⇈ Pump-Fed Machines

Equipped with a pump, these machines actively inject both mix and a controlled amount of air into the freezing cylinder. This allows for precise control over the product’s consistency and volume.

Key Characteristics:

  • Creates a lighter, creamier, and more voluminous product.
  • Offers adjustable overrun for precise texture and yield management.
  • Designed for sustained performance in high-demand environments.
Ideal For: High-volume locations, dedicated dessert parlors, and businesses aiming for maximum product yield.
