Questions & Answers
Ice scoops should never be kept in an ice chest; they require their own holder or container. It is completely unsafe in terms of sanitation. By repeatedly using an ice scoop and returning it to the ice chest, the handle will accumulate enough bacteria to contaminate the rest of the ice, posing a food safety risk as well as being unsanitary. Especially if you're using it in the food service industry (this is a HUGE health code violation!). That is something you should never do!
For an 8-ounce serving, you'll need two scoops. if that's of any use
Selected User Reviews For 4 Ounce Stainless Steel Ice Scoop
I've known him for over 20 years and have learned a few things from him. The edges aren't as sharp as one might expect, but they're still a little tricky; I'm sure they're stainless steel, but the percentage is a mystery. It's a cute little scoop either way. Just make sure you don't put it in the ice or whatever else you bought it for. Never put it in the refrigerator, ice box, or freezer, or leave it out in the open. Simply wipe it down once you've finished using it. It should last a long time, and it isn't plated, so there's no need to worry about that! br> [The one I got] appeared to be improperly rounded out after being stamped out of the sheet, but then again, I'm a steel worker's daughter. The dip in the back of the scoop and the center of the scoop, however, are sufficient for the purpose for which it was purchased. I received one with insufficiently rounded corners. I'm aware that it occurs, but it's extremely uncommon. br> Overall, I'm happy with it and may purchase another; or even a couple of them. It's easy to misplace scoops, especially if you have a child. as well as the science experiments! br>I would strongly advise anyone to read this! It's also dishwasher safe; simply make sure it's completely dry before washing!.
Fortunately, it was inexpensive, but it was not what I had in mind when I placed my order. The edges of the handle are excessively sharp. It appears to be SS-like in appearance, but it will not be used due to its low-cost stamped-out design. I'll go out and get a new ice scoop.
I expected this 4 ounce (120 ml) scoop to be small, but it's even smaller than I expected. I have found no flaws in the product, and it is of excellent quality. br>br>I find that a short soup ladle works much better than this scoop for my small ice machine. This scoop is long and straight, which makes collecting ice difficult; it simply slides out before I can get the scoop level enough to hold the ice; I must remove the ice basket and tilt it for the scoop to hold any ice. br>br>However, the scoop has other uses.
Returnable Low-Cost Thin 2-Piece Set Scoop is made of stamped metal and is sold as a single piece. This is a low-cost, thin, and unsatisfactory product. The dull blade is caused by the gauge metal and the pointed edge of the upper handle. tip in your hand (as seen in the photo) > Although it isn't particularly sharp, it isn't suitable for use as a hand tool). There was visible corrosion on the spot when it arrived. The handle and the scooper bowl are joined by a weld (see second photo). Worse, the ice scoop can't be returned. In my opinion, this is a poor product. I'm wishing I hadn't bought it.
It could even be dangerous. THE QUALITY IS HORRIBLE. The word "stainless" has a very thin definition. 18 gauge is a possibility. When used for ice, the scoop feels flimsy and will bend. The handle's welds are shoddy and will most likely fail after only a few uses. ALL of the edges have been left unfinished or sanded - Sharp burrs can be found on it, and the front edge of the scoop has been peaned over to form a lip, causing thinning along the edge - This, combined with the sharp edges, transforms the scoop into an oddly shaped serrated knife. br>There is buffing compound all over the scoop, indicating that the manufacturer didn't bother to clean it after manufacturing. If you purchase this scoop, you will receive the following benefits: Make SURE to scrub it with a toothbrush dipped in rubbing alcohol all over and in the crevices to remove any remaining buffing compound, which can contain chromium and other heavy metals in stainless steel.
This scoop is made up of two parts. It's made of a very thin metal (Stainless Steel, I'm guessing?). ), and it isn't very durable. The handle is made of a bent piece of thin metal with sharp edges on the underside. You could risk it falling apart or cutting your hand if you put any weight in it (such as ice, as it was intended). Trust me, you can get a much better quality ice scoop for the same price. You should stay away from this. It's flimsy, thin, and poorly constructed, with the potential to be dangerous.
I bought this to use for Epsom salt and it works finebr>– it's not the most attractive piece/tack marks from welding can be seenbr>br>overall: br>I bought this ice scoop to use in a salt tub, and it works great for that because I leave the scooper in the salt tub. For someone who might have this out. . . in a bar setting, for example. This may not be appealing to the eye. It's perfect in terms of functionality and weighs in at 4 ounces. I can see how this would flex and bend if used on extremely hard ice. It's made of a thin material. I've included some images to help you visualize it. I hope this information was useful in making your choice.
Perhaps as a bonus, I got this for a low price. I reasoned that one scoop would be the same as the other. My assumptions were incorrect. I have a problem because I live in a hot climate, and the ice melts a little bit when it is delivered to my local grocery store or when I buy it and drive home. Some of the cubes melt and then refreeze together as a result of this. This ice scoop is very thin, light weight, and not useful for scooping ice. It might work well as a rice or flour scooper, but it is nothing like the heavy duty ice scoopers I've seen and used in the past. It is cheap to buy, and the materials reflect the cost. It is fine for scooping dog food or dry items, but I wouldn't recommend it for ice, especially if you need to break apart small chunks of ice frozen together.
