If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be
used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to

How to Make Ice Cream

4
Allow freezer bowl(s) to freeze
completely. NOTE: Liquid
contained in freezer bowl(s) is
nontoxic.
Prepare ice cream mixture.
NOTE: Use between 6–12 oz.
(177–355 ml) of mixture. Do not
exceed 12 oz. (355 ml).
Chill mixture in refrigerator. Insert mixing paddle into motor
housing.
FOR BEST RESULTS:
• Before churning, thoroughly chill ice cream
mixture in the refrigerator and the freezer bowl(s)
in freezer. Freezer bowl(s) should remain in the
freezer for at least 8 hours before use. Freezer
temperature should be set to the coldest setting
and bowls should be placed towards the back
wall.
• This unit produces soft serve ice cream—the
consistency will not be the same as hard, storebought ice cream.
• If ice cream is not made after running the unit for
15 minutes maximum, your bowls have not been
frozen long enough OR your freezer is not cold
enough. See Troubleshooting section.
• If you wish to store any leftover ice cream in the
freezer bowl, simply place it inside a large plastic
zippered storage bag and put it back into the
freezer.

Allow paddle to churn in mixture
for approximately 5–15 minutes.
If needed, press down lightly on
lid during the first few minutes
of churning. This may be needed
from time to time on lower-fat/
lower-sugar recipes.
NOTE: Pushing too hard will
result in the paddle reversing
back and forth.

Remove lid. Frozen mixture
may be eaten directly out of the

8–9 minutes
After turning unit off, let it sit with the paddle and lid still attached

NOTE: If the ice cream mixture is too thick, or sat in freezer bowl
too long before churning, the paddle may struggle and/or reverse
directions. Turn unit OFF
( )
, break up the mixture in the bowl
with a spoon, replace the paddle, and turn back ON (I).
