What I do is let it drop 3 or 4 batches and put them in a plastic container in my freezer for about 5 or 10 minutes. They will freeze solid, I break them up and throw them in my ice bin that is accessible from the front of my fridge. This thing is not perfect, nothing is, but it is so much cheaper than replacing the icemaker in a 20 plus year old fridge. It is a godsend to our family. I can fill my fridge ice bin in about 6 hours and roughly 3 quarts of water.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.They turn into a clump
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you let them melt they may melt together but I always put each batch or at least every few batches into the freezer in a bag if not using right away so they will not begin to melt. They don't melt super quickly but they do begin to melt.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.It's best to empty the ice into another bin or resealable bag in the freezer. Just make sure than you tilt the ice basket forward so any melting cubes or water can drip out of the corner holes. We do occasionally use an ice pick to break up any that stick to each other, but they come apart pretty easily. Remember, this makes ice, but it's not a freezer! The ice will eventually melt, but it just turns back into water that gets remade back into ice.
