Remove all packing materials and literature from inside of the ice cream maker. Wash the
cover, paddle, and freezer bowl in warm soapy water. Do not clean with abrasive cleaners or
hard or sharp implements. Rinse and dry all parts thoroughly. Do not immerse motor base in
water. Wipe motor base with moist cloth.

Make sure the freezer bowl is washed and thoroughly dried. Wrap the bowl in plastic bag to
guard against freezer burn and place upright in the back of your freezer where the freezer
compartment is coldest. Do not put any ingredients inside of the freezer bowl yet. The length
of time needed to properly freeze the liquid contained in the freezer bowl depends on how
cold your freezer temperature is. Note that freezer temperatures vary considerably, so that
freezing time can range from 6 up to 22 hours. When the sealed liquid material is frozen solid
inside, you are ready to make ice cream.

1. Follow recipes to make ice cream mixture. Any recipe can be used for your frozen dessert
providing it does not yield more than the capacity of the freezer bowl, 1 quart.
2. Remove the freezer bowl from freezer and locate on the motor base. The freezer bowl
should be used immediately after removing from freezer as it begins to thaw once removed.
3. Place the paddle inside the freezer bowl as per drawing.
4. Place the cover on the motor base.
5. Turn the knob to select speed. Start out on LO speed, then you can move to HI after
ingredients are blended. If using many thick ingredients, LO is the best setting. LO tends
to yield a harder type of ice cream, HI tends to make it softer.
6. Whatever speed, processing should take about 20-25 minutes to become frozen. Special
care must be used when the consistency is selected as the freezer bowl may stop spinning
after 25 minutes. If this happens turn the knob to center position (OFF). The ice cream
is done. For even harder ice cream, allow the ice cream to remain in the freezer bowl for
2-5 minutes or cover the freezer bowl and put into your freezer for 15 minutes before
serving. ONCE HARD IS SELECTED AND THE MIXTURE HAS
STARTED TO FREEZE, DO NOT SWITCH TO HI. THE FASTER SPEED
(SOFT SELECTION) IS NOT ABLE TO SPIN THE HARD ICE CREAM.

Pour dessert mixture through the hole in the center of cover into the freezer bowl. Stop when
mixture comes within 1/4th of the top as the mixture will increase in volume during freezing
process. INGREDIENTS (chocolate chips, nuts, alcohol etc.) can be added after the
freezing process has begun through the center hole in the cover.
To serve dessert, turn unit off, scoop off excess dessert using rubber, plastic, or wooden utensils
only, then remove cover and scoop remaining dessert from freezer bowl.
C L E A N I N G :
Wash the cover, paddle, and freezer bowl in warm soapy water. DO NOT CLEAN
WITH ABRASIVE CLEANERS OR HARD IMPLEMENTS. Rinse and dry all
parts thoroughly. DO NOT immerse the motor base in water. Wipe motor base with damp
sponge or cloth. DO NOT freeze freezer bowl if still wet.
I C E C R E A M M A K I N G T I P S :
~ For ice cream recipes that require pre-cooking, making the mixture a day in advance is
suggested. The mixture will be able to cool completely and increase volume. Pre-chilling
any ice cream mixture is strongly recommended for best results.
~ Ice cream mixtures that do not require cooking are best made with an electric mixer which
allows the mixture to increase volume.
~ Cream, sugar, eggs and milk are often the main ingredients in ice cream. These can often
be substituted with similar ingredients depending upon your preference. For instance, any
type of cream can be used: however, there may be differences in flavor and texture. The
richer the cream you use, the richer the resulting ice cream will be. Heavy cream is richest
with about 36% fat. Whipping cream, coffee or light cream and half-and-half contain 30%,
18% and 10% fat respectively. Milk can also act as a cream substitute, but bear in mind that
the ice cream's texture and taste may change dramatically. You might also consider using a
combination of creams and milk.
~ If a recipe calls for alcohol, add this last to the ice cream maker, only minutes before
complete freezing. Otherwise, alcohol may impede the freezing process. Ice cream
mixtures can stay fresh for days in the refrigerator; however, you should thoroughly mix or
shake it before freezing it to make ice cream.
~ The ripeness and sweetness of fruit or juice has a large impact on the taste of sorbets. You
can compensate tart fruit with sugar or omit sugar if fruit is extremely ripe. Be aware that
once frozen, the ice cream will taste less sweet than the mixture.
~ Long term storage of homemade ice cream in the freezer should be done in
airtight containers.
