Snow-Fine Kakigori, in a Compact Footprint
The compact Swan shaver gives you the same melt-in-the-mouth shaved ice as the big floor model, in a machine that fits on a counter. Turn the hand crank and ice becomes fine, dry, snow-like fluff, the texture that makes real kakigori. It is the versatile one in the range: it takes both block and cubed ice, and it comes ready to serve with cups, a scoop and a rose ice holder. A retro, hard-wearing, genuinely capable machine for cafés, dessert counters and restaurants that don't need the largest model.
Why Operators Choose This
- Snow-fine ice: the fluffy, melt-in-the-mouth texture true kakigori needs
- Block or cubed: more flexible than the large model, runs on either
- Compact: counter-friendly footprint for smaller sites
- Ready to serve: includes cups, a scoop and a rose ice holder
Good to Know
- Cutting power: 120mm disc with an electric-grade gear drive
- Stepless texture: adjust from fine snow to coarser flakes
- Manual: no power needed, just the hand crank
- Serviceable: rust-resistant stainless blade, replaceable when worn
かき氷 — Kakigori, and why the machine matters
Kakigori is Japanese shaved ice, and texture is everything: not the wet shards of a blender but a light, dry, snow-like fluff that drinks up syrup and dissolves on the tongue. That comes from a sharp blade shaving fine ribbons off the ice at a controlled angle, which is what a Swan does. Swan is the classic name in Japanese ice shavers, and this compact, hand-cranked model brings that same snow-fine result, and a bit of retro counter theatre, to sites that don't have room, or need, for the large floor machine.
In the range: the large SI-3B for high volume · the same compact in Black
How is this different from the large Swan?
Size and flexibility. The large SI-3B has a bigger 216mm disc and higher output for serious volume, but runs on block ice only and is a sizeable floor machine. This compact has a 120mm disc, fits on a counter, and crucially takes both block and cubed ice, and it arrives with cups, a scoop and a rose ice holder. For most cafés and restaurants, the compact is the practical choice; choose the large only if kakigori volume demands it.

Can it use cubed ice?
Yes. Unlike the large block-only model, this compact takes both block and cubed ice, which makes it far more practical for a kitchen that already has a standard ice machine. Block ice still gives the finest, driest snow, but the ability to run on cubes means you can make kakigori without sourcing special ice.
What is included?
It comes ready to serve: a water tray, two ice cups, a scoop and a rose ice holder, the part that shapes the ice for a neat, rounded mound. So you have what you need to start making and presenting kakigori out of the box.
How do I maintain it?
The blade is rust-resistant stainless steel; keep the machine clean and dry between uses. Sharpness is what gives fine snow, and the blade is replaceable, so most performance issues are solved by fitting a fresh blade. Spare blades are available separately.
