The Omcan 58178 Ice Cream Maker
The Omcan 58178 is the Musso Mini ice cream maker, a compact countertop unit with a 2-liter bowl capacity and a maximum ingredient load of 0.75 liters per batch. This machine is built for restaurants, gelato shops, cafes, and catering operations that want to make small batches of fresh gelato, ice cream, or sorbet in-house without the footprint or cost of a full-size batch freezer. Each batch takes 30 to 40 minutes from liquid mix to finished product, and the 60-minute mechanical timer lets you walk away and come back to a ready batch.
80 RPM Paddle Induction Motor for Gelato Texture
The paddle induction motor turns at 80 RPM, which is deliberately slower than what you see in most consumer machines. That slower speed incorporates less air into the mix, which is exactly what you want for dense, creamy Italian-style gelato. Higher-speed machines whip in too much air and produce a lighter, fluffier texture that tastes more like soft serve than gelato. The stainless steel paddle breaks up ice crystals as they form on the bowl wall, preventing large crystals from developing and keeping the finished product smooth. The refrigerant coil is welded directly to the bowl rather than wrapped around the outside, which minimizes temperature dispersion and keeps the freeze zone tight against the mixing surface.
AISI 304 Stainless Steel Construction, Made in Italy
The body is AISI 304 grade stainless steel, the same food-grade alloy used in commercial kitchen equipment because it resists corrosion and cleans easily. Every Musso machine is hand-assembled and tested at the factory in Mortara, Italy, backed by over 50 years of gelato machine manufacturing. At 17.7 inches wide, 11.8 inches deep, and 10.6 inches tall, it fits on a prep table or countertop without dominating the workspace. The unit weighs 40 pounds, runs on a standard 120V outlet with a NEMA 5-15P plug, and draws 200 watts. R134A refrigerant provides reliable cooling performance in the self-contained compressor system.
