and usually take about 5–10 minutes.

Keep Cool

Once the consistency of the dessert has been
achieved, Keep Cool will prevent the mixture from

this mode, note that the compressor will operate
intermittently to ensure consistency of the dessert.

for 2 seconds again.

required to achieve the dense & creamy
consistency of a great gelato.
