Making Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt

1.Prepare one of the suggested recipes or one of your own favorites. You can use any recipe for ice cream, frozen yogurt, or frozen dessert, as long as the recipe does not contain more than one quart of ingredients.

NOTE: Always chill your mixture in the refrigerator before attempting to freeze-churn. Ice cream mixtures will stay fresh in the refrigerator for a few days. Shake well before pouring the mixture.

2.Assemble the lid, motor, and drive shaft. To

insert the

drive shaft into the

motor unit, slide motor onto lid until

the “keyhole” part of lid is over hole

into which the driveshaft fits. Push the drive shaft into the hole.

NOTE: Make sure that the non-key- hole part of the lid fits

between the

top and bot-

tom collars of the drive shaft.

3.When the mixture is ready, remove the cylinder bowl from the freezer and place on a firm, level surface near a convenient power outlet. It is extremely important that the bowl be used immediately after it is removed from the freezer, as it begins to thaw once removed.

4.Insert churn blade onto the drive shaft. Lower assembled

lid/motor/

churn blade

onto the cylinder bowl positioning lid locks over tabs located on the ring

inside of bowl. Lock in place by sliding the lid locks outward.

5.Plug cord into outlet. Turn switch to ON position to start operating churn blade.

6.Immediately pour chilled mixture into

cylinder bowl

through lid opening. Maximum

capacity of

chilled mix-

ture is one quart. This allows for the volume to

increase during churning to 11⁄2 quarts.

NOTES:

•During the freezing process, you can add finely chopped or pureed ingredients such as chocolate, raisins, nuts, etc., through the opening in the lid. Alcohol should not be added until near the end of the process as it significantly slows down the freezing process.

•The machine will run for 20 to 40 minutes. Do not turn ice cream maker off during this time. The mixture may freeze to the walls and prevent the churn from turning.

•If the churn becomes blocked, it will reverse and continue to turn in the opposite direction. When the motor repeatedly stalls and reverses, the mixture has reached maximum freezing.
