Let's Make a Slushy out of Orange Crush & Root Beer Soda! Today we are trying out the Vevor Slush Machine & Icee Maker! We are using 2 liter bottles of soda to see if it can slush! A slushy is also known as a slush, slushie, Icee, or Slush Puppie. It is a frozen beverage that is cool treat on a hot day! It has a semi-frozen, slushy consistency that is slightly crunchy and icy, but still soft enough to drink through a straw.

When I saw your video I thought that the cylinder would freeze completely since it usually requires a lot of sugar to be able to make a slushy drink. Then the soft drinks would not freeze. thanks for the video.

@EricLearnstoCook Год назад

Just a heads up that I realized after the fact that I didn't secure the tanks properly. Those plastic things that get in the way of tank removal and installation are there for a reason. Next batch didn't make as much noise.😂

I will be using mine at small events… it will only be used during Thursday - Saturday … does this mean I’ll have to preform a cleaning at the end of the day on Saturday & have it prepared to use the following Thursday… Even if I’ll be using 2 liter Coke all the time

@EricLearnstoCook 6 месяцев назад

I think the answer lies with your county's health department regulations. I know when we did chili contests, we had to provide three sinks (washing, rinsing, sanitizing). For one of these, if you are feeding the public and you want to keep people from getting sick, I'd think you would want to clean it after each use. Possibly need to sanitize and let it dry good so it doesn't mold on you. I don't know how fast bacteria on a room temperature sticky sugar/acid concoction grows. But I personally wouldn't want to find out.

@AmyLearnsToCook 6 месяцев назад

Yes, it needs to be washed and sanitized after each use.

Does anyone know when using the soda, does it loses the fizz? Please if anyone could help.

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

I don't recall having a fizz. When you go to 7-11 and drink a Coke or Mountain Dew Slurpee, does it still act carbonated? I think the pure nature that you are pouring your pressurized carbonated bottle into a tank that has 1 liter of air headspace gives it plenty of room to lose its carbonation. I think it's just frozen syrup water at that point. Still pretty good.

@glycoln 3 месяца назад

What temperature does your machine goes down to on the set temperature? Mine is 0c and doesn't go lower

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

There's the buttons for up/down. I think the higher the number like 12 or 15 or whatever makes the machine colder. It's counter intuitive. So if you put your liquid in the fridge so when you put it in the machine, it's gonna be close to 0c. Your machine should be able to get it under 0c. Usually for soda (with sugar, not diet), -3c seems to work (but will take up to an hour if using both tanks or a little faster if only using one tank). But I did margaritas for 4th of July, and that was a learning curve. I didn't put alcohol in the machine, but i put it in each glass. But the mix needed to be colder, like -6c. I cranked my machine up to double digits to get it colder.

Yeah, they all are pretty much the same in terms of noise. There is a compressor running as well as that tube in the middle freezing and scraping. It is a pretty fun gadget tho!

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

Part of it was noisy because the tank was lose. I didn't lock it into place so it was bouncing a bit. The compressor is noisy.

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

I put up a video for 4th of July. We did strawberry margaritas. I did not put alcohol in the tank. But the mix and frozen strawberries and simple syrup took much longer to freeze.

@travelingbikerdogs 10 месяцев назад

Did you leave the thickness level at 4 when making this? Im having a hard time making wine slushy consistently. Maybe my mix?

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

There isn't a "thickness" level as much as the temperature you want. With soda, it tends to freeze really good around -3 or -4C depending on ambient room temp, starting temp of the liquid, etc. With Strawberry margarita/daiquiri mix we needed it to get more like -6c. I think I had it up to "15" or whatever that number is that you crank up or down that impacts the temperature. Wine slushy will be a challenge since the alcohol in the wine will act as antifreeze. These residential units might not have the cooling capacity. But if you're talking about the number that you can go up/down, I'd take that to double digits and see if you can get them to -6C. It also helps if you chill your liquid before using the machine (why make it do all the work)?

@Cheekiemoney Год назад

As someone who loves Sonic Slushies, this may be a wise investment for me.

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

It depends. What's your threshold to use it and not let it collect dust. Tear it apart and wash thoroughly after each use, lest get food contamination, and deal with assembling it. Once you get used to putting it back together, it's not hard. But the first few times can be a PITA.

@AndresFelipeCeballosPerez 8 месяцев назад

Hi, los saludo desde colombia, por favor me pueden ayudar a configurar mi máquina vevor que no he podido hacer granizados

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

Make sure your liquid has sufficient sugar per the manufacturer. Non-diet soda seems to work. Chill your drink in the refrigerator so the machine doesn't have to work so hard chilling it. Set the number up a few digits and monitor the temperature. It will need to be -3c to start freezing. Much colder than that, and the machine will make noise. If using alcohol, then that will require more cooling and you will need to bump the number up to 12 or 15 to get the temp down to -6c and that still might not be cold enough for it to freeze into a slushy.

@dejesus3461 4 дня назад

Hola,yo tambien tengo una de tres bowl y no e podido ponerla a granizar

@bhutch216 Год назад

The brix level of soda is low for proper slushy. It’s freezing inconsistently and why they sell concentrate. Brix level needs to be 13-15%

@GaetanoLetizia-v8c 7 месяцев назад

I agree. How did these guys get it to a slushy consistency

@jimmieleal4080 7 месяцев назад

I figured that is why it started making noise. It was hard ice pieces in there

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

I need a refractometer. We simply poured the Barq's root beer in one tank as is and Orange Crush in the other. There's enough sugar to "freeze" if you get the machine down to -2 to -3c. We did strawberry margaritas for 4th of July this year. THAT was harder. I had to pump the number up to maximum (15?) and it got down to -6c and finally froze after a while. No alcohol either. Just margarita mix, simple syrup and unsweetened frozen strawberries in my Vitamix. Concentrate you can use water works for some people. But lots of arguments on how much water to dilute it with. This might not have been ideal, but it was easy and very tasty.

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

@@jimmieleal4080 Some of the noise is if you get the temp too low, like -4c or colder with this drink, then it is 'harder'. I didn't secure the tanks as I didn't realize the plastic foot in the front of each tank must be behind the plastic ridge of the machine. I noticed that AFTER the video. So now I know how to secure those. They make less noise.

@blackpearl137th 5 месяцев назад

How would you do a mix drink

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

very carefully. i have yet to put alcohol in it as I think that increases the degree of difficulty (it's like trying to freeze antifreeze and these things aren't that powerful). But on this machine, you can go "up" or down. The numbers don't mean anything as they don't equate to a temperature. But they kinda do. I believe the higher the number, the longer the compressor stays on and will try to chill your liquid. So with root beer and orange crush, I only had to get the number high enough to get the temp down to -3c or so. It eventually froze to a good slushy. Strawberry margarita/daiquiri mix took longer to chill. I had to get the mix down to -6c and it eventually did good. But that still didn't have alcohol. I put the numbers in the double digits like around 12 or 15 or something. I didn't have time to pre-chill my mix, but i added frozen strawberries that I ran in my Vitamix to puree with some simple syrup. Just a learning experience to try to see what this thing can do.

@johnmixon7980 2 месяца назад

I haven't thought of that. As long as it has a certain sugar content 11-18% or whatever the manufacturer wants, then it should work.

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

A&W/Barq's taste pretty sweet. If they tasted like mouthwash or toothpaste, I don't think it would freeze.

@anabower667 Год назад

How did you pup it back thank you😊

@EricLearnstoCook 2 месяца назад

How did I put it back together? After disassembling and washing the tanks and letting them dry completely, I pushed them onto the back gasket by turning sideways to get past the auger. Then I can turn it right side up. You have to push back and keep the front lifted up a bit as it has to clear the plastic hurdle that is in the way. That 'foot' on the tank must be behind the plastic ridge on the machine. So keeping the front of the tank up will do it. and push hard. turning it sideways may look intuitive, but it will never work that way.
