PRODUCT USAGE

MAKING ICE CREAM
IMPORTANT: Pouring batter into the Freeze Bowl before starting the Stand Mixer may cause the batter to freeze prematurely and lock the Dasher.

Before first use
Set freezer to coldest setting. Store the Freeze Bowl in the freezer for a minimum of 16 hours.
Prepare ice cream batter in advance. Please see “Tips for Great Results” in Product Guide Online.

Set the Stand Mixer to Speed 1 (stir) and pour the ice cream batter into the Freeze Bowl; mix 20-30 minutes, or to desired consistency. Add any solid ingredients such as fruits, nuts, candies, or chocolate chips, after 12-15 minutes of the mixing process.
Remove the Dasher and the Freeze Bowl and, using a rubber spatula or a plastic or wooden spoon, transfer ice cream to dessert dishes or to an airtight container for storage.

NOTE: If the Dasher begins to slip and make a clicking noise, this is an audible indicator that the ice cream is done.

NOTE: The Ice Cream Maker Attachment will create a soft-consistency ice cream. For firmer consistency, store ice cream in a shallow airtight container in the freezer for 2–4 hours.

IMPORTANT: Do not store ice cream in the Freeze Bowl in the freezer. Prying hard ice cream out of the Freeze Bowl with metal scoops or utensils may damage the Freeze Bowl.
