  • Publication number: 20080276629
    Abstract: Salt water fed to an ice-maker 1 is cooled to generate ice. The ice is scraped by scrapers 1c to form small particles of ice which are mixed with the salt water to generate salt water-mixed sherbet ice 143. The salt water-mixed sherbet ice is fed from the ice-maker to an ice storage tank 14 so as to be stored in the ice storage tank. A predetermined amount of the salt water-mixed sherbet ice with a predetermined sherbet concentration at a predetermined low temperature is stored in the ice storage tank while the salt water-mixed sherbet ice is refluxed from the ice storage tank to the ice-maker. Water 24 is injected into the salt water-mixed sherbet ice in the process of producing the salt water-mixed sherbet ice. By the method of producing salt water-mixed sherbet ice, salt water-mixed sherbet ice at a relatively high temperature can be produced easily.
