mixture do not exceed 60% of capacity of the removable bowl as frozen mixture expands.
Note: There will be a variation in the time it takes for a batch of ice cream to freeze, depending
on the amount and on the temperature of ingredients used. If you want quicker results, use
less ingredients and/or refrigerate the ingredients before use.
STORAGE OF ICE CREAM
Remove the frozen mixture or finished ice cream into a clean and dry container using the plastic scoop.
Do not use metal scoop as it can scratch the removable bowl.
Fruit based ice creams, sorbets and sherbets are only truly luscious when they still have the just picked
flavor that time so rapidly destroys. That is why no commercial fruit ice, sherbets or ice cream can ever
be as good as freshly home-made. For fruit ices, sherbets or ice creams to have a long freezer life,
the fruits must be cooked, thereby destroying their freshness. If your creations are consumed in a
short time frame, you can use uncooked fruit purees for a much better flavor.

Some user tips for your ice cream maker:
Our aluminum freezing bowl is approved for food safety. Since aluminum can react to acidic
solutions, the recommendation is to not store acidic foods in the freezing bowl for long periods.
We recommend removing any acidic frozen desserts from the freezing bowl and store them in
plastic containers.
Please note that our ice cream makers are a self-contained, compressor operated unit which
no pre-freezing and salt required. All you need to do is to put the refrigerated mixture into the
removable bowl and the unit will freeze the mixture.
Optional: Freeze newly-made ice cream for about 4 hours before serving. This is also known
as "ripening”
