Nemox Gelato 5K CREA NTC i-Green Professional Countertop Batch Freezer (120V Commercial Ice Cream Churn, Eco-Friendly R290 Gas, Real-Time NTC Probe Density Control, Made in Italy)
Bring elite precision, rapid turnarounds, and environmental sustainability to your dessert program with the Nemox Gelato 5K CREA NTC i-Green. Engineered as a high-performance countertop batch freezer for fast-paced kitchens, high-end caterers, pastry shops, and micro-creameries, this Italian-made powerhouse produces a wide variety of frozen desserts in record time.
As part of Nemox's specialized "CREA" software family, the 5K features an integrated NTC (Negative Temperature Coefficient) thermal probe that reads the exact temperature and viscosity of your base in real time. This ensures flawless, consistent results while automatically switching to a preservation mode to keep your products ready to serve.
Versatile 4-Program Smart Processing Matrix
The Gelato 5K CREA NTC eliminates the guesswork of artisanal freezing by offering four pre-programmed, one-touch culinary routines tailored to different dessert textures:
-
Classic Italian Gelato: Calibrates the motor and compressor to produce dense, rich, full-bodied textures with an authentic, low-overrun structure.
-
Semi-Soft Gelato: Perfect for whipping softer, light, moldable textures that are immediately ready for ice cream cakes, intricate silicone molds, or soft-scoop display pans.
-
Granita: Custom-steps the paddle speed to grow well-defined, delicate ice crystal flakes without turning them into mush—ideal for authentic Italian granitas and sorbets.
-
Fast Cooling: A vital food-safety program that rapidly flashes hot liquids from a pasteurizing temperature of +80°C down to +10°C in roughly 8 minutes, preventing bacterial growth and shortening prep times.
Eco-Friendly "i-Green" Thermodynamic Engineering
-
Natural Hydrocarbon Refrigeration: Employs R290 natural refrigerant gas, a sustainable alternative that completely replaces volatile hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). This tech drastically cuts indirect carbon footprints, lowering greenhouse emissions by 99.95%.
-
High-Efficiency Mechanical Protection: The thermodynamic properties of R290 gas deliver faster heat absorption for quicker cooling times and lower utility costs. To protect your investment, the smart density control software automatically shuts down the 500W motor if the mixture gets too thick, preventing mechanical strain or burnout.
-
Dynamic Operating Freedom: Offers total flexibility with Automatic and Manual Modes. Busy kitchens can use the fully automated routines, while experimental chefs can take full manual control over the compressor and paddle cycles.
High-Yield Production & Quick-Clean Construction
-
Blazing Fast 12-to-15 Minute Cycles: Churns out a fresh 1.25 kg (1.75 liters) batch in just 12 to 15 minutes, making it one of the fastest professional countertop models in its class.
-
High-Volume Hourly Yield: Delivers a reliable continuous hourly output of 5 kg (7 liters) of premium product, keeping up with peak restaurant rushes.
-
Heavy-Duty 304 Stainless Steel Build: The entire structural body, fixed inner bowl, and mixing paddle are forged from industrial 304-grade stainless steel for maximum durability and easy cleaning. The paddle features interchangeable composite scrapers to prevent ice buildup on the bowl walls.
-
Integrated Gravity Drainage Valve: Built with an internal gravity drain system and exterior release valve. This allows you to flush and wash out the fixed chamber directly on the counter between flavors, saving your staff from lifting or tilting the 73-pound unit.
