Important, if you do use the removable bowl please note that the quantities of ice cream
mixture should be slightly less ( approximately 600 g ( 1 pint ) mixture ), and the
churning time will take a little longer particularly for sorbets.

PREPARATION OF THE MIXTURE

Select your recipe and follow it to prepare the mixture. Pay attention to the following:
• Use peeled fruit and ingredients free of any waste matter.
• Always chill the ingredients in the your fridge before pouring into the machine. This will

reduce the time required to make the ice cream.

• Do not prepare more than 700 / 800 g (1 1/2 pints ) mixture. This will allow the volume

to increase during churning to maximum bowl capacity.

• Never attempt to make less than 400 g ( 3/4 pint ) of mixture

STORING ICE CREAM

In the ice cream maker
When the ice cream is ready you can keep it covered in the ice cream maker for
approximately 10-20 minutes. Make sure that the paddle has been removed and the freezing
switch (B) switched off, otherwise the ice cream will harden too much.

In the freezer
The ice cream can also be stored in the freezer for up to 1-2 weeks, depending on the
ingredients used. Do not store it for too long, never more than two weeks, as it will lose
flavour, quality and freshless.
Should you wish to store the ice cream in the freezer pay attention to the following:
Store the ice cream in a clean, well sealed container suitable for freezing.
Storage temperature must be at least –14°C.
Attach a label to the container with the date when it is made and what kind of ice cream it is.
Defrosted or semi-defrosted ice cream must never be put back into the freezer.
Before serving we suggest you either remove the ice cream from the freezer about 30
minutes beforehand and place it in the refrigerator, or leave it for 10/15 minutes at room
temperature.

Maximum storage time
Never exceed the recommended storage time:
Ice cream made with fresh, raw ingredients: up to one week;
Sorbet or yoghurt-based ice cream: from one to two weeks at the most;
Ice cream made with cooked ingredients: up to two weeks.

BATCHES

If you wish to make a second batch we advise you clean the bowls and paddles thoroughly
as detailed earlier.
