HELPFUL TIPS
LARGE GROUPS & PARTIES
When serving a large group or party, it can be best to prepare a large amount of your dessert recipe ahead of time. When the rst batch is gone, simply pour another measure of your mix into the unit.
SOFT SERVE ICE CREAM RECIPES
Keep in mind that custard-based recipes, as well as recipes that call for heavy cream or whipping cream, tend to yield a thick, creamy ice cream texture that may make dispensing dicult with this soft serve machine. For this reason, recipes with heavy cream or whipping cream are not recommended for use in this machine. However, you may substitute heavy cream or whipping cream with whole milk or half and half to produce a more easily dispensable soft serve dessert.
In addition, recipes calling for heavy cream or whipping cream may require two or more cleaning cycles due to the thick, dense consistency produced by these recipes.
As ice cream mix freezes, it expands. To ensure you do not overll, do not pour more than 26 oz. (750 ml) of ice cream mix into the unit at one time.
SLUSH RECIPES
Slush recipes must include sugar in order to freeze. For this reason, diet sodas, sugar-free juices, and the like may not be used with this unit.
ALCOHOLIC RECIPES
Alcohol may be added to almost any recipe. However, keep in mind that alcohol does not freeze and a recipe may require additional time to create the right consistency.
DISPENSING
When dispensing, clear cups will not activate the Dispensing Sensor. Use your hand or a solid color cup to activate the sensor before dispensing.
If after dispensing you nd that additional time is needed, hold the START/STOP ( / ) button for two seconds to add two additional minutes of time.
LUBRICATION RECOMMENDATION
The Auger and Dispenser Cover have silicone gaskets to prevent leaking and create a better seal. To increase the life of the seals and avoid them from running dry, it is recommended to occasionally apply butter or cooking oil onto the silicone gasket surfaces.
