The Basic Anatomy of A Frozen Yogurt Machine

A frozen yogurt machine is quite similar in appearance and operation to a soft serve machine. These are large hard plastic and stainless steel appliances that freeze, blend and dispense the frozen yogurt product. Anywhere from one to four hoppers hold the frozen yogurt mix.

The frozen yogurt flows through a spigot at the bottom of the machine. A high quality machine is capable of making over 200 eight ounce servings per hour.
