INTRODUCTION

Your Gourmet Hot or Cold Whipper is a versatile kitchen tool that
can be used for hot and cold cuisine. When used hot, it can make
rich and creamy espuma (foam) for gourmet-style side dishes
such as whipped potatoes and corn foam. When used cold, it
is ideal for whipped cream, whipped chocolate, yogurt espuma,
frosting, pastry crème, fruit foam and other dessert toppings.

3. Assemble the Head [FIG. 2]
Locate the large gasket that sits between the head and the canister.
Place the gasket inside the head and screw head onto canister evenly
and firmly. The head is in place correctly when no thread is visible.
Do not cross-thread. If you cannot find the threading, remove the
head and try again.

4. Insert a Charger [FIG. 3]
Insert one 8-gram Nitrous Oxide (N2O) charger into the charger
holder. Use only a new, high-quality whipped cream charger. (Do not
use a CO2 charger meant for a soda machine.)

5. Charge the Canister [FIG. 4]
Screw the charger holder onto the inlet valve until the charger content
is fully released with a hissing sound. Use 1 charger for each recipe
unless otherwise specified. Never use more than 2 chargers at one
time in this device.

6. Shake the Canister
Shake the Whipper briskly 4 to 5 times in a vertical direction. (When
using well cooled light cream or other mixture, shake up to 10 times.)
Then unscrew the charger holder. The light hissing sound while
unscrewing is normal. Remove and recycle the empty steel charger
according to local regulations.

and use. Never use force to assemble or use this device.

NOTE: Do not “over shake” the canister, as this may actually harden
the cream too much. Too much agitation can create butter. However, if
the whipped cream is not firm enough, shake once more. When using
later, do not shake again.

7. Dispensing the Whipped Cream [FIG. 5]
Attach a decorating nozzle to the nozzle adapter achieve your
desired effect. To dispense, hold the Whipper vertically (with the
decorating nozzle pointed downward) about 1 inch above the surface.
To decorate, depress the lever. This will open the valve and allow the
cream to exit. Serve immediately after dispensing.

8. Storing the Whipped Cream
If you do not use the entire contents of the canister, you can save it
for future use. The whipped cream will stay fresh in the refrigerator for
several days. However, we recommend that you remove the decorating
nozzle from the nozzle adapter, rinse it thoroughly and then put it
back on. This way, the decorating nozzle will be clean and ready for the
next use. IMPORTANT: Always keep your Gourmet Hot or Cold Whipper

in the refrigerator (never in the freezer).

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS

to escape by depressing the lever.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Unscrew and thoroughly clean all parts of your Gourmet Hot or Cold

or the head. Use the included nozzle brush to clean the decorating
nozzles. Allow all parts to air dry before use.

USING THE GOURMET HOT OR COLD WHIPPER

1. Raise or Lower the Canister Temperature
For best results, you must heat or chill the canister. To do this, fill the
canister with hot or cold water and let it sit for a few minutes. Empty
the water before adding your ingredients.

2. Add Mixture to Canister [FIG. 1]
Add well-chilled fresh whipping cream and/or other ingredients
depending on the recipe. Fill the canister to about 2/3 capacity, as
the contents will expand under pressure. Do not overfill canister.
When preparing recipes, granulated salt or sugar or other powdered
ingredients must be fully dissolved in milk, cream or water before
filling in order to avoid clogging the device. For sweetening, it is best
to use powdered sugar or liquid sweeteners. Any solid ingredients such
as fruits, vegetables and coarse spices must be pureed and passed
through a fine sieve before being poured into the canister.
