TIPS FOR BETTER ICE CREAM MAKING TIPS FOR BETTER ICE CREAM MAKING • Note time taken to make frozen desserts can vary depending on the ambient room temperature, temperature of the ingredients and pre cooling the machine. Note the cooler the ingredients the faster the ice cream process. As a general guideline it takes around 50 minutes to make ice cream. When making crème anglaise and recipes that require heating ingredients, it’s always a good idea to make this the day before.
TIPS FOR BETTER ICE CREAM MAKING • • • • • • • • • When heating the cream/milk you don’t want to boil it. A good guide to know when to remove the cream/milk from the heat is when little bubbles start to form around the edge of the cream/ milk. While the cream/milk mixture is heating start to beat the sugar and eggs. Waiting to do this after the cream/milk mixture has heated may cause the cream/milk to overheat and separate.
CARE & CLEANING Ensure that the ice cream machine is turned off by pressing the POWER button. The ice cream machine is off when the START | PAUSE button ’s LED light is no longer illuminating red. Remove the power plug from the power outlet. Allow the ice cream machine compressor to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning. Cleaning the lid Cleaning the Stainless steel housing Cleaning the Ice cream Bowl Wipe the exterior of the stainless steel housing and the LCD screen with a soft damp cloth.
Care & Cleaning Cleaning the paddle 1. 2. Wash the paddle with warm soapy water. Using the bottle brush supplied insert this in the central part of the paddle to clean all the ice cream out.

PAge header..... TROUBLESHOOTING Problem Easy Solution Ice cream won’t freeze • START | PAUSE button needs to be pressed. • Alcohol in ice cream? Added too much or too soon. • Ensure that there is adequate ventilation around the ice cream maker. We recommend leaving at least 15cm between the ice cream machine and adjacent hard surfaces. Paddle won’t move • Paddle won’t move if the pre cool function is selected for the first 5 minutes.
TROUBLESHOOTING My ice cream maker seems to be vibrating briefly? • The internal compressor is mounted on special rubber mounts to reduce the noise and vibration during operation. When cooling is not required the compressor will automatically turn off and a small amount of vibration for 1–2 seconds is normal. The controls don’t work? • The child lock may be on. Press and hold the HOLD button for 2 seconds to disengage the locking.
