Freezing the Cylinder Bowl
The most important step in making ice cream and frozen dessert is to make sure
that the cylinder bowl is thoroughly frozen.
1. Wash and thoroughly dry cylinder bowl.
2. Place cylinder bowl in an upright
position in the back of your freezer
where the temperature is coldest.
The temperature should be at least
0ºF/-18ºC. Keep the cylinder
opening clear.
NOTE: The length of time necessary to properly freeze the cylinder bowl will
depend upon how cold the freezer temperature is:
Minimum time for cylinder to properly freeze

Making Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt
5. Raise handle to lock lid into position.
1. Prepare one of the suggested
recipes or one of your own favorites.
You can use any recipe for ice
cream, frozen yogurt, or frozen
dessert, as long as the recipe does
not contain more than one quart
(1 L) of ingredients.
NOTE: Always chill your mixture in
the refrigerator before attempting to
freeze-churn. Ice cream mixtures will
stay fresh in the refrigerator for a few
days. Shake well before pouring the
mixture.
6. Plug cord into outlet. Turn switch to
ON position to start operating churn
blade.
2. To assemble the lid and motor: align
the two tabs
7. Immediately pour chilled mixture into

into position.
Maximum
capacity of
chilled mix-
ture is one
quart (1 L).
3. When the mixture is ready, remove
the cylinder bowl from the freezer
and place on a firm, level surface
near a convenient power outlet. It is
extremely important that the bowl be
used immediately after it is removed
from the freezer, as it begins to thaw
once removed.
This allows
for the vol-
ume to increase during churning to
11⁄2 quarts (11⁄2 L).
NOTES:
• During the freezing process, you
can add finely chopped or pureed
ingredients such as chocolate,
raisins, nuts, etc., through the
opening in the lid. Alcohol should
not be added until near the end of
the process as it significantly slows
down the freezing process.
• The machine will run for 20 to 40
minutes. Do not turn ice cream
maker off during this time. The
mixture may freeze to the walls
and prevent the churn from turning.
4. Insert churn blade into motor. Lower
assembled lid/motor/ churn blade
onto cylinder
bowl aligning
lid lock tabs
with handles
and front
notch.
• If the churn becomes blocked, it will
reverse and continue to turn in the
opposite direction. When the motor
repeatedly stalls and reverses, the
mixture has reached maximum
freezing.

NOTES:
8. Turn off, unplug and remove motor
assembly
• The finished result is a soft, spoonable
ice cream. Homemade ice cream will
not be the same consistency of hard
store-bought ice cream.
• The unit will operate for 90 minutes to
two hours. The unit will automatically
turn off for approximately 10 to 15
minutes to cool the motor. When the
motor has cooled then the unit will
atuomatically restart unless the unit
has been turn off or unplugged. See
troubleshooting if your unit did not
make ice cream in 60 minutes.
from the
bowl. You
may “sea-
son” the ice
cream by
wrapping
cylinder bowl
with a clean
towel until
desired consistency is reached (up
to 30 minutes) Transfer to an airtight
container and store in freezer.
Usage Tips
• We recommend you always keep
your ice cream bowl in your freezer
so that you can make ice cream, chill
wine or serve ice cubes at any time.
• Remember that artificial sweetener
can be used as a substitute for sugar.
Only add artificial sweeteners to mix-
tures that are cold or have completely
cooled. When a recipe calls for heat-
ing liquid to dilute sugar, omit the
heating process and simply stir in the
sweetener until it is well dissolved.
• For best results, the ice cream bowl
must be frozen thoroughly. Make sure
to set your freezer at the coldest set-
ting (temperature should not be more
than º0F [-18ºC].)
1 packet sweetner = 2 teaspoons
(10 ml) sugar
6 packets = 1⁄4 cup (60 ml)
8 packets = 1⁄3 cup (80 ml)
12 packets = 1⁄2 cup (125 ml)
• Firmness of ice cream depends on
variables such as the recipe used,
room temperature and temperature of
ingredients before churn-freezing.
• Some recipes require the mixture to
be pre-cooked. Make the recipe at
least one day ahead. This will allow
the mixture to cool completely and
increase volume. Pre-chilling the base
mixture is strongly recommended.
Never try to shortcut.
• Do not attempt to make more than
1 quart (4 cups/1 L)) at a time.
• Do not remove ice cream bowl from
the freezer until ready to use.
• Do not puncture or heat the freezing
cylinder.
5
Storing Ice Cream and
Frozen Yogurt
In the ice cream maker
When the ice cream is ready it can be
left covered in the ice cream maker for
approximately 30 to 40 minutes. If
placed covered into the refrigerator it
can also be left in the ice cream maker
for 30 to 40 minutes.
In the freezer
• Storage temperature must be 0ºF
(-18ºC) or lower.
Although ice cream can be stored in
the freezer for a short period, a lengthy
period of storage is not beneficial for
either the taste or the quality of the ice
cream. After one or two weeks, the
texture starts to deteriorate and the
fresh taste is lost. Ice cream tastes
best when it is fresh. Should you wish
to store ice cream in the freezer, follow
these tips:
• Attach a label to the container with
the date when it was made and the
kind of ice cream it is.
• Defrosted or semi-defrosted ice cream
must never be put back in the freezer.
Remove ice cream from freezer about
thirty minutes before serving and place
it in the refrigerator. Or bring it up to
serving temperature by allowing it to
stand for ten or fifteen minutes at room
temperature.
• Store the ice cream in a clean, well-
sealed container that is suitable for
freezing.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEM
Things TO CHECK
Ice cream is
not firm enough
• The cylinder bowl was not in the freezer long enough
(preferably overnight).
• The freezer is not cold enough. Ice cream sets at 10 to
14ºF (-10 to -12ºC). If the freezer is not at 0ºF (-18ºC) the
ice cream will not set.
• Too much mixture was put in cylinder bowl.
Maximum fill is 1 quart.
• Ingredients are warm or at room temperature.
• The cylinder bowl was left at room temperature for more
than 5 minutes before use.
• The freezer door was opened and closed too many times
during the freezing process.
• The cylinder bowl has a thick coating of ice on the walls.
After washing, dry completely prior to placing back in
freezer.
How To Clean
1. Remove churn blade.
4. Wipe the motor assembly with a
damp cloth. Never immerse the
unit in water.
2. Turn motor assembly upside down.
