Care Instructions

How do I clean the bowls?

  • It is you use the removable bowl, as it is easier to clean
  • The fixed bowl allows you to start on a second batch straightaway

How do I do heat removal by conduction between the two bowls?

  • Pour a measure of food-grade alcohol (60 proof or higher for example brandy) or brine in the fixed bowl
  • To make the brine, mix 35ml water with 8g salt or 2 teaspoons
  • The measuring cup enables you to put in exactly the right amount. It holds 35ml about 5 tablespoons
  • To check that you have added the right amount of brine or food-grade alcohol, lower your removable bowl into position, then lift it out again. The whole of the outer surface should be wet
  • To avoid oxidation spots, make sure you remove all the liquid with a sponge or a wad of kitchen paper after use

What capacity am I working with?

  • Your ice cream will double in volume during the churning process, so the bowl should never be more than half full to begin with (i.e. 1 litre of mixture)
  • To achieve the very best result, we recommend processing between 0.6 and 0.9 litres of mixture
  • As sorbets do not increase so much in volume, the bowl can be two-thirds full at the start (i.e. 1.3 litres), though we recommend you keep to between 0.8 and 1 litre of mixture

How do I prep my ingredients?

  • You must pre-chill your ingredients to a temperature of around 10°C
  • If you need to cook your ice cream base (e.g. custard base for vanilla ice cream), we recommend that you make it the day before, or chill it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours. This will also allow the flavours to develop
  • If you do not have time to chill your preparation, select the manual mode. Your ice cream will take longer to churn
  • Churning times vary according to the recipe, the quantity and temperature of the ingredients, and the room temperature. The colder the ingredients, the sooner the ice cream will be ready. If you follow our recommendations, churning should take between 20 and 45 minutes
  • It takes longer to churn ice cream and sorbets that contain alcohol (e.g. rum-and-raisin ice cream), as alcohol delays freezing

When do I add extra ingredients?

  • If you wish to add extra ingredients (chocolate chips, crushed dried fruit, etc.) it is best to do so 5 minutes before the end of churning
  • Resume the remaining churning cycle to ensure that the ingredients are mixed in properly

Most awesome purchase ever

After years of lusting after one of these machines, I finally got my hands on one, and oh, what a pleasure it is to use! It churns a good textured ice cream in about 40 minutes (providing your mix is already nicely chilled of course). The noise from the motor is very tolerable. The machine actually has 2 insert bowls, so as soon as you've churned 1 batch you can start the next. It is super easy to Read more

Review by Jared W. on 14 September 2015

I find many other reviews here inaccurate. I have owned this machine for over 3 years and made probably 2 batches of icecream per week in it over this time.

What you need to know:

Always try chill your custard for a minimum of 8 hours or overnight.
The colder the custard, the quicker it freezes, the quicker it freezes, the smoother the finished product.

Review by Noel R. on 9 May 2016

Through a strange and beautiful episode of good fortune, I am now the proud owner of the "Rolls Royce" of ice-cream machines. While I'm concerned about impending obesity and diabetes in my future, I cannot praise the results of this machine enough - it is nothing short of amazing.

Aside from eggs, silky texture is a lot about freezing it as quickly as possible, so I bought medicinal Read more

After much deliberation I bought this machine and made my first batch of ice cream. Oh my word - its delicious. The booklet has two very bland recipes, so I did some research on the net, and decided on my own cheat recipe. Chocolate chocolate chip ice cream - 500ml fresh ready made custard, 2 slabs milk chocolate and 1 slab dark chocolate. Melt the chocolate and add to custard. Add a table spoon o Read more

So, little nervous (due to cost) to have purchased this item but very pleased I did. UNBELIEVABLE quality of ice cream produced! So so simple and within half an hour, ice cream ready to eat. Already made pistachio and second batch of strawberry within one hour. Highly recommended for any foodie!

I would recommend this product to a friend.
