The Real Profit Story is not just about your selling price, your food cost, the number of servings per day, and your opening hours. How about the hidden costs?
Inexpensive Soft Serve
We all now live in interesting times, which has been particularly exacerbated by the Global Financial Crisis, impacting national governments through to individuals who are now feeling the squeeze.
Money does not go quite as far as it once did, so those of you wanting to follow the pack by buying a high end soft serve machine, you may now have to start rethinking your capital expenditure philosophy.
Our machines are inexpensive by comparison, which with comparably little capital expenditure, an ice cream/frozen yogurt franchise or chain account can buy many more dispensers.
Through a simple shift in your equipment purchasing and deployment philosophy, imagine the market share you could grab by outfitting more strategic outlets with our dispensers?
Have you also calculated your true portion cost? Ask about our Kostamzin™ spreadsheets, so we can explore the hidden portion costs, which might not necessarily be highlighted when you buy a soft serve machine.
Some true portion cost variables to consider:
- Equipment Cost
- Energy
- Heat Emission (especially the added impact on air conditioning)
- Installation
- Lost sales due to freeze-down time
- Sanitizing (One-Shot® OS6 & OS7 requires no sanitizing)
- Special Wiring (not required with One-Shot®)
- Service (One-Shot® has less moving parts)
- Spares (One-Shot® requires no O-Rings, dasher blades, lubricants, etc)
- Waste

Standard Domestic Plug
Once your One-Shot® dispenser arrives, simply plug and go! No installation hassle – just plug into any 110v or 220v electrical outlet and you are serving in seconds.
When you consider the global rising of energy costs, following the pack is not necessarily a good thing anymore, which is a good reason to rethink your soft serve implementation strategy.
With One-Shot® OS6 & OS7 it costs less than a 100 watt light bulb to operate – now that is a real mean and green machine.

Low Temperature Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt
With HydroStab™ technology you can now dispense at temperatures as low as –24 degrees Centigrade (-11 degrees Fahrenheit) but equally you can dispense at temperatures as warm as -12 degrees Centigrade (10 degrees Fahrenheit). This gives you an ADTR (Active Dispenser Temperature Range) of 12 degrees Centigrade (20 degrees Fahrenheit); thus allowing for virtually all scenarios of real life in the industry.
Because the ice cream can be dispensed at freezer temperatures, this means that throughput is not controlled by the number of portions that can be stored inside a tempering cabinet as used to be the case.
HydroStab™ is all-natural, tasteless and colourless and allows us to produce an ice cream and other frozen desserts independently from the presence of proteins and fats! Overruns in excess of 200% are possible with this new paradigm of ice cream production.
Ice cream dairies can now produce frozen yogurts with live culture, pure fruit frozen dessert with no added sugar, zero fat products and much, much more.
So, when you see the One-Shot® brand on the dispenser, you can be sure of the product quality being dispensed!
One-Shot® is the exclusive licensee of HydroStab™ worldwide.

Sanitizing
No matter what you may think or say about traditional soft serve machines, you still have to eventually sanitize them, meaning that either you or your staff needs to go through that cleaning process. 
What fun, huh? Could we perhaps interest you in an alternative scenario to sanitizing soft serve machines?
Please consider this possible dream machine scenario with:
- No o-rings
- No lubricants
- No dasher blades
- No tanks to be cleaned 
This alternative already exists today, so why not take a look at our One-Shot® OS6 & OS7 model dispensers? You simply serve and dispose of the cartridge and it really is that simple.
Sanitizing is now for the history books!
