    Try using something like empty egg cartons in between layers for air/cold circulation.

    Brian that is a Big number of Tubes for even two Freezer units, We have a 1/2 and 1/2 17 cubic Fridge and can make 35 in Total per fill, we sell mainly to a local Sari Sari @ 1.5 p per tube and they sell at 2p
    So with the Best intention in the World we only Make something like 150 peso per week. Best of Luck mate and fingers crossed No brownouts too often cos that will be a bug bear to consider.
    I will say that we get Discounts on our Purchases so it is swings & roundabouts for us. :thumbsup:

    No problem mate, none whatsoever, please; no need to apologise! I am sure there are others here who will be interested for sure! :smile:

    But I am thinking if we need to supply around 200 + tubes per day then a larger Freezer would be much more beneficial to what we are trying to do, and when demand drops off, we can buy whole Pigs and lots of Chickens and freeze them for eating as well as selling to Family and locals here, so win-win in the long run! :smile:

    Just a thought here,if you are having to boil water and freeze them all for p5 is it worth it? I cant see it would be really worth it. Maybe im wrong though.

    There is no easy or really cost effective way to produce Ice for sale in a Domestic freezer Box but what my girls have been doing Lately is putting some in the Fridge First to Cool Down.
