Hints
·Ice (4, 5, and 6 quart models): About 15 to 20 pounds of crushed, cracked, or
chipped ice is used foreach batch ofice cream. For best results, ifice cubes are
used, they should be crushed. Place cubes ina cloth bag and crush witha
mallet,or use an electricice crusher. The finerthe ice, the smoother the ice
cream texture.
·The wood bucket (Models8455 and 8550) should be soaked in water priorto
use to swellthe woodand seal the seams.
·Firmness of ice cream depends on the mixtureused, roomtemperature, size
of ice, and temperature of mixturebefore it's churned. For best re~ults,place
ingredients in metal ice cream can, mixand chillinrefrigeratorseveral hours or
overnight.
·Too soft: Ifchurning takes longer than 40 minutes or the ice cream is too mushy,
add more ice and 6 tablespoons salt to stimulatethe coldtransfer to the ice
cream can. Repeat ifice cream is stilltoo mushy. This procedure should stiffen
the ice cream to a fluffymashed potato texture.
·Too hard or lumpy: When churningtime is less than 20 minutes lind the ice
cream is coarse and lumpythroughout, tryadding less salt and finerchopped
ice. )
·Home.yilde ice cream is very dense. One quart weighs about the same as 2
quarts ofcommercialice cream. Don'tbe surprised ifyour homemade ice cream
gets very hard in your freezer. Simplysoften, ifdesired, by placing inrefrigerator
10-15minutes before serving.
·The metal ice cream can must be thoroughly dried with a towel after washing. If
the can is left to "air dry", water spots may appear. (See ''To Clean," below.)
·Alcohol willinhibit freezing. Use flavorings or extracts.
·When preparing a cooked ice cream recipe withmilkand eggs, cook on low to
medium heat, stirring constantly. Gradually stir 1 to 2 cups of the hot mixture into
the beaten eggs, then slowly pour eggs into the remaining hot mixture, stirring
constantly.

HINTFOR LOWER-FAT RECIPES
For lower-fat content, substitute 1% milk for whole milk; whole milk for half and
half; and evaporated skim milk for whipping cream. Higher-fat dairy
products-such as whipping cream-create a smooth, rich and creamy dessert.
Lower-fat dairy products create a lighter dessert with a slightly different texture.
