Ethan Brumberger graduated summa cum laude from The Woodlands High School in May 2022 and will be in the Engineering Honors Program at Texas A&M University this Fall, where he plans to major in Mechanical Engineering. During high school, Ethan lettered in several academic honor societies and was a builder for his school’s robotics team, which won the 2022 Texas State FIRST Tech Challenge Robotics Championship. He also received the AP Scholar with Distinction Award. Outside of his academic pursuits, Ethan was an active Boy Scout who held several leadership positions and earned the rank of Eagle Scout. Through both the Boy Scouts and his school activities, Ethan had the opportunity to participate in many community service events and plans to continue serving his community in college. Upon earning his engineering degree, Ethan hopes to use his skills to benefit society, perhaps by designing autonomous systems for surgical robots, self-driving vehicles, or space exploration.

Check our virtual showroom of commercial ice machines and you’ll likely notice three options when it comes to condensers: air-cooled, water-cooled, and remote. While each has its place in the ice-making world, there is a hierarchy here that makes one thing clear: Most establishments should consider an air-cooled ice machine first. These all-purpose units fit most anywhere. However, if special circumstances rule one out for your facility, you might want to consider a remote ice machine or a water-cooled ice machine.

To help you choose what’s right for your operation, here’s some information on each type.

I am beginning my senior year at The University of Arizona majoring in Molecular and Cellular Biology and minoring in Physiology. I have always been passionate about and have excelled at math and science. My senior year of high school is when I found out exactly what I wanted to do with that knowledge. In November of 2011, my father was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer, and passed away from it in March of 2014. I decided to take this event and turn it into something positive. From that point forward, I became very passionate about a career in cancer research. I wanted to help other people going though the same situation because I knew firsthand how one person having cancer can affect hundreds of people. I worked in a biotechnology lab my first two years of college, where I learned basic laboratory techniques. For the past year and a half I have been working at the Arizona Cancer Center researching how epigenetic changes to our cells can cause cancer. I am able to take the skills and lessons

          Creating ice is not going to be an instant process. Many factors come into play with how long it takes an ice machine to make ice. For example, the make and model of your ice machine can have a similar effect. It also depends on how many pounds of ice your particular ice maker can produce. If you own a machine created to produce less ice, it will produce at a slower rate than a larger machine. For example, the HOSHIZAKI AM-50BAJ can create the max amount of 55lbs of ice per day versus the HOSHIZAKI KM-160BWJ
