STARGEL 4 manufacturers produce ice cream through its direct extraction.
ICETEAM 1927 recommends using high quality mix for ice cream production in order to satisfy
your customers, even the most demanding ones.
Any saving made to the prejudice of quality will surely result into a loss much bigger than the
saving itself.
Bearing in mind the above statements, please take heed of the following suggestions:
Choose high quality natural ingredients and create your own mix or buy it from trustworthy
suppliers.
Closely follow instructions given by your supplier for the preparation of mixes.
Do not alter your supplier's recipes, by adding, for instance, water or sugar.
 Taste your ice cream before serving and start selling only if it is entirely satisfactory.
Make sure your staff always keeps the machine clean.
Have your machine serviced always by companies authorized by ICETEAM 1927.

To make ice cream, feed mix into the cylinder and start the automatic production cycle, until ice
cream reaches the ideal consistency set by ICETEAM 1927; use the minimum and maximum
mix quantity for ice cream specied in the chart under paragraph 1.2.2. When the cycle ends,
the ice cream is ready to be extracted through the spigot door and dispensed directly into a tub.
