Notice
Please note: Homemade ice cream does not have the consistency of
industrial ice cream or ice cream from the ice cream parlour.
Also there, a semi-solid mass is firstly produced and then frozen. Additives
(stabilizers) are added. You can avoid these additives with homemade ice
cream.
If the ice cream is not firm enough for you after the basic program (ice
program) and after-cooling, place the ice cream in a container in the freezer
for 30 minutes without a mixing arm.
The following factors can affect ice consistency:
- The food used (e.g. high-fat milk)
- Please do not expose the device to direct sunlight or do not place it near a stove when cooking.
- Please ensure that the device is adequately ventilated. It should be at least 15 cm from the wall.
- If the device should stop while the ice is being made, press the rear edge of the lid.

Plain yoghurt…
… is a sour milk-type product obtained from UHT-milk with a fat content of 1,5
– 3,5% and the influence of bacteria. The milk is inoculated with yoghurt
cultures or fresh plain yoghurt. At an average temperature of 42°C, the lactic
acid bacteria multiply. Once enough lactic acid is produced, protein is
precipitated and the milk thickens.
There are clockwise and anti-clockwise lactic acid bacteria. Clockwise lactic
acid bacteria play an important role in carbohydrate metabolism as the body
make better use of it. If you had digestive problems after eating some
yoghurt, then maybe too much anti-clockwise lactic acid was the cause, as they
are broken down more slowly.
The consistency of the yoghurt is dependent on the fat content of the milk
used. At a fat content of 3,5% the yoghurt gets a little firmer, with 1,5%
softer. Any other milk should be heated up to 80 – 90°C and cooled down to
40°C. Do not refrigerate yoghurt for more than 10 days.
Preparation:
You can use both UHT milk and pasteurized fresh milk. For off-farm milk (milk
dispenser / milk refuelling station), the milk must be boiled first and cooled
to at least 35 °C.
Stir one cup of yoghurt (125gr) into 0,75 litre of milk and fill into the
yoghurt container. Then, place into the device and start the yoghurt program.
Mature Time:
The milk mixture should be left in the appliance for at least 8h. The longer
the yoghurt matures, the tastier it becomes. The colder the mixture, the
longer the timer has to be set. Use a spoon to check the consistency and, if
necessary, increase the timer. Do not move the device during the mature time,
otherwise the yoghurt might not thicken.
One cup of the finished Yoghurt can be used as the starter culture, but not
more than approx. 20 times, as the effect is not so good any more. Keep the
ready yoghurt always in the refrigerator. Ingredients such as sugar, fruits or
flavours can be added later to the plain yoghurt.
