ICEWAVE Bingsu & Snowflake Ice Machine (IW-04)
Make Bingsu and Snowflake Ice in About 1 Minute.
The ICEWAVE IW-04 / (WS-003) household countertop snowflake ice machine is designed for Korean-style bingsu, Taiwanese snow ice, and other frozen desserts. Its drum roller turns a well-mixed liquid base into soft snowflake-shaped or filamentous ribbon ice in about 1 minute. Use water, milk, juice, coffee, or a properly adjusted syrup or yogurt base - no pre-frozen ice blocks or manual ice crushing required.
- ◆ Snow Ice in About 1 Minute: After pre-cooling begins, the IW-04 starts producing fine snowflake or ribbon ice in about 1 minute. Choose P1 to P5 to adjust production speed and texture for the liquid base.
- ◆ Child Lock for Household Use: Hold the Child Lock control for 3 seconds to lock or unlock the panel. Adult supervision is still required when children are nearby.
- ◆ 0-24 Hour Timer & Low-Material Protection: Set a delayed start or automatic shut-off from 0 to 24 hours. The low-material alert can stop operation automatically if the tank is not refilled.
- ◆ Automatic Cleaning Cycle: Remove and rinse the liquid tank, add warm water below 122°F (50°C) to the drainage pool, close the cover, and press Clean. The cycle finishes automatically with a beep.
- ◆ Compact 800 ml Countertop Design: The 14.76" × 9.25" × 10.04" footprint and 19.4 lb body fit home kitchens, dessert counters, and party serving areas without requiring pre-frozen ice blocks.
- ◆ Drum Roller & Forced-Air Cooling: A 150 W refrigeration system freezes the prepared liquid on the drum roller, while the distributor forms snowflake-shaped or filamentous ice for immediate serving.
- ◆ R290 Refrigeration System: The IW-04 uses R290 refrigerant. Keep the machine upright, well ventilated, and away from flames; refrigeration service must be performed by qualified personnel.

Questions, answered
Clear answers based on the IW-04 product manual and verified product details.
Q1: What type of ice does this machine make?
It makes soft, fluffy snow-like or shaved ice — not traditional hard ice cubes. Perfect for snow cones, slushies, cocktails, and dessert toppings. You can also adjust the texture by changing the liquid ingredients (e.g., water/milk gives snow-like ice; syrup/honey gives shaved ice).
Q2: What liquid can I use?
You can use water, milk, juice, coffee, syrup, yogurt, honey, or any beverage with a temperature below 122°F (50°C). The max capacity of the liquid tank is 800ml. For thicker liquids like yogurt or honey, add some water to adjust viscosity for best results.
Q3: How long does it take to make ice?
The machine starts producing snow ice within about 1 minute after you press the cooling button. The speed is adjustable from P1 to P5 using the "+" and "−" buttons — higher settings produce ice faster.
Q4: How do I clean the machine?
Remove the liquid tank and rinse it with clean water.
Pour warm water (below 122°F / 50°C) into the drip tray.
Close the top lid and press the "Clean" button — it runs a 5-minute auto-clean cycle.
After it stops, rinse the drum roller with warm water again. A cleaning brush is included.
Q5: Can I set a timer for auto start/stop?
Yes! Short press the child lock button to enter timer mode, then use "+" and "−" to set a delay start (0–24 hours) or auto shut-off (0–24 hours). The machine will beep once to confirm.
Q6: Can I use this outdoors?
This appliance is intended for use in a well-ventilated area. Keep it away from fire sources and make sure the air outlet is unobstructed, with more than 8 inches (20 cm) of clearance from surrounding objects.
