Delivery Information
Price Match
The ICB Technologies 09.SC3X0.8L is a three-section electric chocolate melter designed for professional use in patisseries, chocolatiers, hotel kitchens, and anywhere chocolate is worked with regularly. It provides a controlled, consistent heat source for melting and holding chocolate at a stable working temperature across three independent 800ml stainless steel bowls simultaneously.
Unlike bain-marie setups, this unit uses dry heat rather than a water bath. Heat is applied directly through the base and sides of each bowl, giving accurate, even temperature distribution without the mess and preparation time associated with water-based melting. In a busy service environment, this makes a practical difference — there is no water to heat, manage, or drain, and the unit is ready to use more quickly. Each of the three sections has its own temperature dial, which means different chocolate types or couvertures can be held at different temperatures at the same time.
From an operational standpoint, the main advantages are:
- Three independent sections allow different chocolates or coatings to be held simultaneously
- Dry heat system eliminates water bath preparation and mess
- Removable stainless steel bowls make cleaning straightforward between service periods
- Individual temperature controls give flexibility when working with varied products
- Compact footprint suits counter or prep bench use without taking up excessive space
Installation is straightforward — the unit runs from a standard plug socket and requires no fixed electrical connection or specialist installation. At 5kg it is light enough to move between stations as needed. It is worth noting that this is a melting and holding unit rather than a full tempering machine; operators requiring precise tempering control with agitation should consider whether a dedicated tempering unit would better suit their workflow.
This melter is well suited to smaller chocolate operations, patisserie sections, or dessert preparation in restaurant kitchens where a reliable, multi-section holding and melting setup is needed without the complexity of larger equipment. For higher-volume sites working with chocolate at significant scale, a heavier-duty unit with greater combined capacity may be worth considering.
If you are unsure whether this unit fits your production volume or workflow, our team is happy to talk it through before you commit to a purchase.
Frequently asked questions
Is this unit suitable for tempering chocolate as well as melting it?
This unit is designed for melting and holding chocolate at a stable temperature rather than full tempering. It does not include an agitation mechanism, which is typically required for precise tempering of couverture. If your operation relies heavily on tempered chocolate, a dedicated tempering machine would give you more consistent results; this melter is better positioned as a holding and working-temperature unit.
Can all three sections be used at different temperatures at the same time?
Yes — each of the three 800ml bowls has its own independent temperature dial, so you can run them at different settings simultaneously. This is useful when working with different types of chocolate or coatings that require slightly different holding temperatures during the same service period.
What electrical supply does this unit require?
The unit runs from a standard plug socket and does not require a fixed or dedicated electrical connection, making it straightforward to set up on a counter or prep bench without any specialist installation work.
