FAQs

How long does the ice stay cold?

The double-wall insulation significantly extends the time ice stays cold compared to a single-walled bucket. Actual duration depends on ambient temperature and frequency of lid opening, but typically several hours.

Is the ice bucket dishwasher safe?

No, hand washing is recommended to maintain the integrity of the double-wall insulation and the finish of the stainless steel.

What is the capacity of the ice bucket?

The bucket has an optimal capacity suitable for typical dinner parties or gatherings, with a diameter of 15.5 cm. Specific volume is not provided but it is designed to be compact yet functional.

Does it come with an ice scoop?

The product information does not specify if an ice scoop is included. The bucket itself features a lid and handle.

Can I use this for hot food?

This ice bucket is specifically designed for keeping ice cold. It is not intended for or recommended for holding hot food items.

What material is the ice bucket made of?

The ice bucket is made of durable and hygienic stainless steel.

Troubleshooting

Exterior condensation is forming.

Ensure the lid is properly seated. Check that the ice bucket is not overfilled or that the ice is not melting excessively. For prolonged issues, the double-wall insulation may be compromised, requiring replacement.

Ice melts faster than expected.

Make sure the lid is closed when not actively serving. If used in direct sunlight or extreme heat, ice will melt faster regardless of insulation. Consider pre-chilling the bucket.

Difficulty cleaning the interior.

Use a bottle brush or a soft sponge with a handle to reach all areas. For stubborn residue, fill the bucket with warm water and a bit of vinegar, let it sit for a while, then scrub and rinse.
