TEMPERING THE ICE PUCKS
Tempering Ice means allowing the ice to adjust at room temperature until it
develops a glossy, wet look and is clear from all sides. Tempering is an
important step for producing the lightest and fluffiest shave ice. Many factors
determine the amount of time it takes to temper. In most cases, your ice puck
should be ready to use in 10 minutes or less.
NOTE: Ice pucks made with plain water require tempering. For mixed base recipes, refer
to the recipe details for tempering instructions.
The Ice Molds are used for best performance for both coarse and fine shaving. It's easy to
get shave ice from tempered ice out of the molds.
TIP: For the fluffiest shave ice, we recommend tempering the ice puck for 10 minutes,
and then using the Fine Shaving Blade.
For coarser ice shaving /
ice chips.
For a fine, fluffy, snow-
like ice shaving texture.

ICE PUCK PREPARATION
1
Fill the ice mold with water or flavored ice
base mixture of your choice.
NOTE: To keep the mold from
overflowing while freezing, be sure not to
fill past the fill line visible just below the
rim of the mold.
NOTE: See “Tips for Great Results” sections for more details on Ice Puck Preparation.
Affix the lid to the top of the mold and
place it in the freezer for 12 to 24 hours.
NOTE: Freezing time may vary and will
depend both on the temperature of your
freezer as well as the sugar or alcohol
content of your mixture.

After removing the ice molds from the
freezer, press firmly on the bottom and
sides to help release the puck from the
mold.
3
Turn the Stand Mixer OFF (0) and then
unplug.
For Plain Ice recipes, allow ice to rest
for up to 10 minutes - this is called
“Tempering” and is recommended to
achieve ideal Shave Ice results.
4
For Stand Mixer with a hinged
attachment hub cover: Flip up to open.
For Stand Mixer with a removable
attachment hub cover: Turn the
attachment knob counterclockwise to
remove the attachment hub cover.
Insert the Main Housing into the
attachment hub, make sure the power
shaft fits into the square hub socket. If
necessary, rotate the attachment back
and forth for proper fitment. The pin on
the attachment housing will fit into the
notch of the hub rim when in the proper
position.

Tighten the Stand Mixer attachment hub
knob clockwise until the attachment is
completely secured into the Stand Mixer.
8
Ensure that the upper lever of the
housing is rotated all the way to left. If
not, rotate it to the left until it clicks into
place. This will ready the attachment
for use and must be completed before
loading the Ice Puck into the Ice Cup and
attaching it to the housing.
OPTIONAL : If you wish to change the
blade, grip the blade from the bottom
and rotate it to right to unlock and
remove.
Remove the Ice Cup from the housing
by rotating it to the right and pulling
downward. Take note of the small

TIPS FOR GREAT RESULTS
Setting Up Your Shave Ice Attachment
• It is recommended that you install
your Shave Ice Attachment on the Stand
Mixer first, before completing any other
set up step.
• To more easily install the clear plastic
Ice Cup into the Upper Housing, look
for the small black indicator arrow. This
arrow must line up with the Lock/Unlock
icons on the Upper Housing.
• When switching blades, please note
that the blades feature 3 uniquely
sized tabs that must line up with their
corresponding slots in the bottom of
the ice cup. If the tabs are lined up
incorrectly, the blade will not install.
Making Shave Ice
2
Do not immerse Housing in water or
other liquid. Wipe clean with a warm,
damp cloth, and dry thoroughly with a
soft cloth before re-use or storing.
• Tempering is an important part of
making great Shave Ice since an ice puck
straight out of the freezer is actually
TOO COLD to shave. Tempering means
allowing your ice puck(s) to warm slightly
at room temperature, until the outside
of the puck has a nice glossy sheen to it.
This typically takes about 10 minutes.
NOTE: Ice pucks made with plain water
require tempering. For mixed base
recipes, refer to the recipe details for
tempering instructions.
• Some Shave Ice recipes, particularly
those with ingredients frozen into the ice
puck, may shave better with either the
Fine or Coarse blade. It is recommended
that you try out recipes with each blade
to see which produces your desired
result.
• It is important to note the subtle fill
line just below the top rim of the Ice
Molds. Please do not fill the molds
beyond this line as it may negatively
affect freezing.
• Allow ice molds to freeze for a
minimum of 12 hours. Note that some
mixed base recipes may require more
time to freeze due to a variety of
ingredients.
• For recipes with sugar, there is a
delicate balance between a mixture that
is sweet to the taste but still capable of
freezing hard enough to shave. Please
follow recipes as closely as possible to
ensure great results.
• For recipes with Alcohol, you should
not exceed an above over 8% within the
mixture. This will help ensure the mixture
freezes hard enough to shave.
• Consider removing frozen ice pucks
from the molds and storing them in
another container inside your freezer.
This is referred to as “Ice Harvesting”
and will help ensure you always have
ice on hand when the occasion calls for
Shave Ice.
Shave Ice Troubleshooting Tips
• Fine Blade Creates Coarse Ice - This
can occur if the ice is still too cold.
Consider extending the tempering time.
Alternatively, check the blade for any
possible damage as this can affect shave
performance.
• Puck Does Not Shave - This can occur
when a recipe mixture is too soft or too
hard. If the mixture is too soft, it may
contain too much sugar or alcohol to
freeze properly. Consider revisiting the
recipe. If the mixture is too hard, the
puck may need to temper for longer. See
"Making Shave Ice".
• If issues persist, please contact
KitchenAid customer service. Visit www.
KitchenAid.com for contact information
specific to your region.
