Helpful Hints
• 
Some ice cream recipes require 
the mixture to be pre-cooked. You 
can make the recipe at least one 
day in advance. This will allow the 
mixture to cool down completely 
and also add volume. We 
recommend that you pre-chill the 
ice cream mixture for better 
results. 
• 
Uncooked recipes will give you the 
best results when an electric mixer 
is used to cream the eggs and 
sugar. This helps increase the 
volume in the ice cream mixture. 
• 
Most ice cream recipes are a 
combination of cream, milk, eggs 
and sugar. You may use any type 
of cream that you prefer, but the 
type of cream that you do use will 
affect the flavor and texture of the 
ice cream that you are making. 
The higher the percentage of fat in 
the cream, the richer the ice cream 
and the softer the texture.
i.e. heavy cream has 35% fat, 
whipping cream has 30% fat, 
coffee or light cream has 18% fat 
and half & half has 10% fat. Any 
combination may be used but the 
total liquid measurement must 
remain the same.
• 
The ice cream mixture will stay 
fresh in the refrigerator for several 
days. Just make sure that it is well 
covered. Before adding to the 
freezer canister, stir it to make 
sure that the ingredients are well 
mixed together.
• 
When pouring into the freezer 
canister, stop at least 1" below the 
top of the canister as the mixture 
will increase in volume during the 
freezing process.
• 
If you wish to add alcohol to your 
ice cream recipe, add it when the 
mixture is semi hard or about 15 
minutes into the process.
• 
If you are making a fruit sorbet, 
please note that the flavor of the 
sorbet will greatly depend on the 
ripeness of the fruit and/or type of 
juice that you use. If you find that 
the fruit is too tart, add sugar; if it 
is too ripe, decrease the amount of 
sugar. Also keep in mind that 
freezing lessens the sweetness of 
the recipe.
• 
You can use artificial sweeteners 
instead of sugar if you wish. 
Please note though that heat 
affects the sweetness of the 
artificial sweetener. We 
recommend that you use artificial 
sweeteners to mixtures that are 
cold or that have been completely 
cooled. When a recipe calls for 
you to heat the liquid ingredients 
so that the sugar may dissolve, 
omit the heating process and 
simply stir in the artificial 
sweetener until it is thoroughly 
dissolved.
• 
Always start with liquid ice cream 
mixtures when preparation starts. 
Do not use stiff mixtures such as 
whipped cream or frozen liquids.
• 
Do not operate the unit longer than 
required. If after 40 minutes the 
mixture is not yet solid or has 
thawed again, do not continue. 
Possible reasons for mixture not 
freezing: the freezer canister was 
not cold enough; the mixture was 
too warm; the proportion of the 
ingredients was not correct.
• 
Do not store prepared ice cream in 
the freezer canister for more than 
a few days.
Disposal of Unit
The gel in the freezer canister contains 
no toxic materials. You may dispose of 
as normal household waste.
