Product Description
Product Description
Creating up to 1-1/2 quarts of ice cream, frozen yogurt, sorbet, or frozen drinks at home takes only about 20 minutes with this electric appliance, and salt and ice are not needed. After the machine's chilling chamber has been in the freezer for about eight hours the liquid between its walls becomes thoroughly frozen. The chamber then goes atop the power base, the unit's paddle goes into the chamber, the transparent top is locked in place, and the machine is turned on. Ingredients go into the chamber through an opening in the top as the paddle turns. The chamber chills the ingredients to whatever consistency is desired--though dense treats are hard to make because the paddle churns in air.
Chocolate chips, chopped fruit, nuts, and other special ingredients can be added toward the end. The nonstick chamber makes cleanup a snap. Storing it in the freezer ensures a frozen confection is only 20 to 40 minutes away when the mood strikes. The machine measures 10 inches in diameter and 15 inches high and weighs 9-1/2 pounds. It carries a three-year limited warranty. A detailed instruction booklet including many recipes comes included. --Fred Brack

This is a great purchase even for those who assume they can't eat ice cream! Since you control the ingredients, you can create recipes working around any sort of diet -- allergy, diabetic, lactose intolerant, vegan, whatever! The machine also works equally well for sherberts and frozen drinks. It's extremely easy to use and cleans very easily.
Few notes for better results:
1) The bowl must be *frozen*. I recommend at least 2 days in the freezer between uses (you may want a second bowl).
2) Upon removing the bowl from the freezer, add ingredients and use -- it will start to thaw immediately. A friend noted that covering the top of the unit while mixing causes it to retain its "cool" longer (a plate over the opening works well).
3) The ingredients must be very cold. If cooking ingredients (such as for fruit or egg enhanced recipes), it's absolutely necessary to chill the resulting mixture before adding it to the unit.
4) Choice in ingredients can make or break your ice cream. While milk can be used, cream results in a much richer, thicker, tastier ice cream. Also, make sure you've crushed or finely chopped any solid ingredients before adding, as otherwise, they will clog in the mechanism; they should also be added during the last 5 minutes only or will impede freezing (same goes for alcohol). Thorough mixing of ingredients is important, as well, since the machine does not churn the mixture (sugar especially needs to be well dissolved or will result in uneven flavoring).
5) Regardless of what you do, you will produce very soft ice cream. Pouring the result into a freezer-proof container and freezing for a few hours to one day works very well.
I know that sounds like a lot of hassles, but it's really not.
The preparation of ingredients can range from moments to hours, as your options are quite limitless.
It makes 1.5 quarts of ice cream, which is not a limitation (should you feel you will consistently need more servings, invest in additional bowls). It stores very well, lasting for a couple of weeks without crystalizing. I would use mine every day if I could remember to buy cream!
Naturally, I was a bit skeptical about this when I saw it showcased on Amazon's front page. After reading many rave reviews and checking out what else was available in the ice cream maker arena, I gave it a shot. I was pleasantly surprised when after about 25-30 minutes of spinning I got ice cream that was about the consistency of soft serve. The amazing thing was how good it tasted, especially if you knew how limited my cooking skills are. The ice cream maker is still my favorite way to mate dessert even after a year. Definitely worth every last dollar.
A few suggestions: Ice cream and any frozen dessert you may make freezes best if you either use chilled ingredients for recipes that involve no cooking, and when they do need heating it helps quite a lot to thoroughly chill the mixture to near freezing before transferring to the device. Being a chemist, the approach I naturally took was the same as in lab: put a smaller container (mixing bowl) with the hot ice cream mixture inside a bigger container (slightly larger mixing bowl of the same shape) filled with about two or three dozen ice cubes + water. If one stirs the mixture every few minutes, it's ready to freeze in no time.
If the result of the ice cream maker is not solid enough in the suggested freezing time of 20-25 minutes, I've found that letting it mix up to about a maximum of 40-45 minutes continues to harden your frozen dessert. (Coincidentally, there seems to be an auto shut-off at that same time - presumably to prevent burning out the motor) Beyond that sitting 2-3 hours in the freezer will give you completely solid ice cream.
Also I suggest taking the time to try to cook a custard. It may take more than one attempt to get it right, but if you do the treat is well worth it. Vanilla custard is by far my favorite ice cream now and no store bought ice cream can compare! There's a recipe for Philly soft serve that's great as well and is not as tricky (recipes for both were found in a book called Frozen Desserts by Caroline Liddell). A friend of mine apparently found the ideal way to cook a custard with such an ice cream maker. He apparently got his hands on an old hot plate with a magnetic stirrer that was being tossed at his lab. He says it works great: you set the thermostat to the right number, turn on the stirrer and it maintains a constant 180 degrees Fahrenheit just like in lab. And your custard is done cooking in 15 minutes with virtually no risk of curdling by overheating. Now if only I could find one of those on its way to the junk yard!
