Product Description
The Hoshizaki Wessamat C-105 is a compact countertop ice crusher designed to process whole ice cubes into crushed ice. It sits on a bar top or buffet counter and handles a continuous feed of standard ice cubes, producing crushed ice ready for cocktails, long drinks, chilled displays, and similar service applications. It is not an ice maker — it works alongside an existing ice machine to process that supply into the format you need.
In a working bar environment, the C-105 is well suited to the kind of steady, moderate demand that comes with cocktail service or a busy buffet station. It is not designed for high-volume continuous crushing across multiple outlets, but for a single service point with regular throughput it performs reliably throughout a shift without becoming a bottleneck.
- Processes standard ice cubes quickly to keep pace with drink service
- Compact countertop footprint works well on bar tops and buffet counters
- Straightforward to operate with minimal training needed
- Easy to clean between service periods, supporting hygiene routines
- Designed to work alongside an existing ice machine supply
Installation is straightforward — the unit requires a standard mains power supply and a stable, level surface with adequate drainage nearby for meltwater. There are no water line connections required for the crusher itself. As with any countertop appliance, ensuring the surface can support the unit's working weight and that there is good airflow around it will help maintain consistent performance.
The C-105 is best suited to smaller bars, hotel buffet counters, café settings, or event catering operations where crushed ice is needed regularly but not in the volumes that would justify a dedicated high-capacity machine. If your operation demands continuous crushing across a busy multi-station bar, it is worth considering whether a heavier-duty model would be a better fit for your throughput.
If you are unsure whether the C-105 matches your service volume or existing ice supply setup, we are happy to talk through the options before you commit to an order.

Frequently Asked Questions
- The C-105 is well suited to moderate, steady demand — a busy bar with regular cocktail service will generally find it keeps pace, but it is not designed for continuous high-volume crushing across multiple stations. If your operation runs very high throughput throughout service, a heavier-duty ice crushing solution may be worth considering.
- The C-105 is an ice crusher only — it processes whole ice cubes into crushed ice but does not produce ice itself. You will need a separate commercial ice machine to supply it with cubes, which is the standard setup for most bar and buffet operations using this type of unit.
- The unit runs from a standard mains power supply and requires no water line connection for the crusher itself. It needs a stable, level countertop surface with space for adequate airflow around the unit, and access to nearby drainage is advisable for meltwater management during and after service.
