Safety

  • Read these instructions carefully and retain them for future reference.
  • Remove all packaging and any labels.
  • The machine must be switched on before adding the ice cream or sorbet mix, to prevent the mix from immediately freezing on the inside of the bowl.
  • Unplug the machine before fitting or removing parts or cleaning.
  • Never put your fingers or utensils down the chute.
  • Do not touch moving parts.
  • Always make sure everything is thoroughly clean before making ice cream or sorbet.
  • Never freeze ice cream that has fully or partially defrosted.
  • Any ice cream or sorbet containing raw ingredients should be consumed within one week. Ice cream tastes best when fresh, so do not make it too far in advance.
  • Ice cream or sorbet that contains raw eggs should not be given to young children, pregnant women or the elderly.
  • To prevent freezer burn, always ensure that hands are well protected when handling the Frozen Dessert Maker, especially when it is first removed from the freezer.
  • If the freezing solution appears to be leaking from the Frozen Dessert Maker, discontinue use. The freezing solution used is non-toxic.
  • Take care not to trap fingers when lowering the mixer head.
  • Refer to your main Stand Mixer instruction book for additional safety warnings.

Cleaning

  • Always turn the Stand Mixer to the ‘O’ OFF’ position before removing the attachment.
  • Do not wash any parts of your frozen dessert maker in the dishwasher.
  • Clean all parts in hot, soapy water.
  • Allow the freezing bowl to reach room temperature before attempting to clean it. Do not wash your freezer bowl in the dishwasher.
  • Dry thoroughly. Failure to dry the freezing bowl before placing it in the freezer could result in a film of ice forming which will prevent the paddle from turning.
  • Do not wash your freezer bowl in the dishwasher.
  • It is recommended that the freezing bowl be stored in a plastic bag in your freezer so that it is always ready for use.
  • Store your freezer bowl in an upright position in your freezer, otherwise, this can affect performance.

Use the Frozen Dessert Maker to produce different flavoured ice creams and sorbets.

To Use Your Frozen Dessert Maker

  2. Add the freezing bowl direct from the freezer, then position the paddle.

  3. Fit the cover on top.

Hints and Guidelines for Safe and Succesful Operation of Frozen Dessert Maker Attachment

  • The freezing bowl should be placed in a freezer that is operating at -18°C or below for between 24-48 hours before use. Freezing time will depend on the efficiency of your freezer.

  • For best performance store the bowl in either the top or bottom drawer of your freezer in an upright position.

  • For best results chill all ingredients for 2 hours in the refrigerator before adding them to the bowl.

  • Ensure your ice cream or sorbet mix is smooth and free of lumps before pouring it into the freezer bowl.

  • Do not switch off the Stand Mixer until the ice cream or sorbet is ready.

  • If, after 30 minutes the mix has not reached the desired consistency, switch the Stand Mixer off and spoon the ice cream or sorbet into a suitable container and place in a  freezer until it is frozen to the required consistency.

  • Do not use metal utensils to remove the mix from the freezing bowl.

  • Up to 1 litre of ice cream can be successfully produced per session.
    Please note:- The length of time that the mix takes to freeze down depends on:

  • the quantity and composition of the mix. The addition of alcohol to the mix will inhibit freezing.

  • the original temperature of the mix.

  • room temperature.
