CLEANING THE ICE CREAM MAKER
Before cleaning the ice cream maker ,make sure the ice cream maker is unplugged. The assembles
and tools (including removable cylinder ,dasher and transparent cover) can be washed in warm water
with dishwashing liquid.
The fixed cylinder must be washed with water and a soft cloth .Then rinse and dry with a cloth.
Do not wash any of the components in a dishwasher.
The motor assembly can be cleaned with a damp cloth.
Never immerse the motor in water or other liquid. Do not rinse the motor under the tap otherwise it will
cause damage.
Important : After the removable cylinder is used ,it is essential to thoroughly clean all parts in contact
with the salt solution to prevent corrosion.
HELPFUL HINTS:
Certain recipes involve cooking, prepare them at least a day ahead to ensure that they chill completely
and expand. It is always advisable to chill the basic mixture.
For cold mixtures , the best results are obtained by beating the eggs and sugar with an electric whisk.
This helps increase the volume.
The majority of recipes consist of cream, milk eggs and sugar. You may use whatever cream you
wish.
The flavor and texture will vary greatly according to the quality of the cream chosen, the higher the
percentage of fat , the richer the ice cream .For example heavy cream contains a minimum of 36%fat,
heavy cream 30%, light cream 18% half and half 10%. Always maintain the same overall quantity of
liquid. For example ,the lightest ice cream can be made by using more milk than cream, or by
eliminating the cream altogether. You may also use skimmed milk, but the texture or the ice cream will
be very different.
The ice cream mixer can be kept in the refrigerator for several days .Stir it well before pouring it into
the cylinder.
The flavor of sorbets depends largely on the degree of ripeness and sweetness of the fruit and juice
used. Taste the fruit before adding it to the recipe. If it is too acidic add sugar, if it is very ripe, add less
sugar or no sugar. Remember that cold reduces sweetness.
Artificial sweeteners can be used in place of sugar . Add the sweetener to the mixture and mix until
completely dissolved.
Cooked mixtures must not be poured into the cylinder until they are completely cold.
To sweeten the mixture during preparation, do not add sugar directly into the cylinder (it does no
dissolve) .Instead, dissolve the sugar in a little water or skimmed milk and pour the resulting
syrup(cooled)into the cylinder.
The fruit used in the recipes must always be washed and dried before use, frit must always be peeled
and seeded, then process to mud and form mixture with the electronic food processor .When using
raw eggs, make sure they are fresh.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
Under normal conditions ,ice cream preparation requires less than 30~40 minutes. If the ice cream is
still not formed after check the following points before contacting an authorized service center.
1. The ingredients must be poured into the ice cream maker at room temperature or, preferably, at
refrigerator temperature, Ice cream can not be made from hot ingredients.
2. The removable cylinder must not be more than half filled. If the quantity of ingredients is
excessive, the time required to form the ice cream increases considerably and the result may not
be satisfactory.
3. The compressor is fitted with a safety device. In the event of power failure, or if the ice cream
maker is turned off and on again for any reason, operation of the chilling system is interrupted
