I am coming at this review from a vegan angle so I have no experiences thus far with any dairy products Etc…. going into this machine. We create all of our own mixture recipes.Where’s the Ice ice ….. baby? 🧊2. We have a typical ice maker built into the door of the fridge and it could NOT keep up to our demands and to this machine. We could make ice cream around every third day not nearly enough for us per week hahah!As there is only two of us eating., if you’re creaming for more than two at a time your ice cream production run time with a typical in door ice maker will be even further apart, perhaps once a week. (Note: we use a lot of ice throughout the days also, pulling from this ice resource as well.)Remedy:Baby it’s cold inside 🎵3. We purchased an ice maker,( Ice maker information below) Incase you need to also… and it seems to be behaving very well thus far.EUHOMY4.5 out of 5 stars 515 ReviewsEuhomy Ice Maker Machine Countertop, 40Lbs/24H Portable Compact Ice Cube Maker, With Ice Scoop & Basket, Perfect For Home/Kitchen/Office/Bar (Sliver)Snake oil: 🐍4.

Keep the insert in the freezer anytime you’re not actively using it , for any last minute cravings – you will want that cold.

Our own homemade vegan recipe iscaptured in one of the photos – pink one with vegan chocolate chips.•••••••••••••• ice cream with no name•••••••••••••••Name a vegan recipe even if you’re not vegan.We just made the recipe up tonight while playing one of our favorite board games EVERDELL so we haven’t named it , perhaps you can after you try our recipe.EVERDELL informationAmazon sells it, this was a kickstarter and a wonderful choice when deciding how to relish in good ole family time. There are many expansions and you can even get one with a wooden 🌳.Maybe we should name the sorbet EVERDELL?!?!?!😋 multi-modal sensation 😋Somehow it tastes like watermelon sorbet ( I added vegan dark chocolate chips to mine and loved it) perhaps others would not enjoy watermelon and dark vegan chocolate.Vegan chips information:AmazonEnjoy life dark chocolate chips.Let’s begin: 🍲First ……name your/ our new recipe_________________________Enter recipe name.Then in a blender or bowl add1 v8 juice strawberry-banana 12oz1x crystal light caffine strawberry single serve packet.15 Oz almond Milk ( Original)1/4 scoops gatrade lemon line1 scoop ice ( Scooper comes with ice cream maker )1 Dole Orange-pineapple 100% juice 6oz 👩‍🍳 Mix everything in a blender or whatever helps you mix.Follow operating instructions from there.Our history: 📖We have made over 40 homemade vegan recipes using this machine, everything from a rocky road type , to this sorbet, to what I call Christmas morning as it taste like hot cocoa and we add candy canes.• We use protein mix in this as a base for both the chocolate and vanilla type bases and it keeps the calories wayyyy down and the nutrition wayyyy up, it’s no quit ice cream.Protein mix informationAmazonPurely inspired protein mix chocolate and vanilla.Creative additions: : 🏊🏼‍♀️As you can see in the recipe we added caffeine too and this is a nice summer weekend work or fun day sorbet to get you going.Personal suggestions: 🥊Don’t let this big machine bully your creativity….I suggest you be creative , we’ve added everything from Gatorade mix (all flavors and great for hydration) , Almond milk, protein shake mix, coffee extracts, food flavoring such as lemon, or coconut, all flavors of 100% juice (pineapple juice is great for reducing inflammation) , nuts, berries, dehydrated fruit, and even my super greens mix has ended up in there.I seem to enjoy the added things to be toppings and not mixed in but my husband enjoys the nuts, berries, coconut, mini marshmallows, pretzels or chocolate chips be added to the blender mixture and become apart of the ice cream. Perhaps try both methods and choose your own.Hope this helps, good luck God bless and ENJOY!!!Sincerely,Steven and Nicola 🌻

Went off without a hitch.Our first time using it, my first time churning ice cream since I did it by hand as a kid, it worked like a charm. Going back to memories of hand churning I expected the machine to bog down and stop when it was done. This was about the time when the kids’ arms were about to fall off, because God knows the adults didn’t do the cranking!The instructions said about 30 minutes but we went 45 and then pulled the plug and we had…ice cream!Some things I will change next time. We bought two LARGE bags of ice and used half a bag. Next time I will buy two small or one large and accept some melted ice for the plants.This is not Dairy Queen smooth ice cream but I think that can be achieved. I recorded and episode of Good Eats where AB walks you through preparing the mixture. I will follow that next time even if it means a bit more work up front.The people that said they couldn’t get it working or that it didn’t work the way they expected are, well, wrong. At first, I expected (as I’m sure many others expected) that the tub would sit still and the beater would turn. Hey, that’s what the hand cranked did, right? But with this the tub turns and everything else stays still. If you can’t work this you are over thinking it.

Not sure yet. 4 stars for nowMade 2 batches of ice cream with this machine. Both tasted good.Concerns, complaints1. One wooden slat is not secured and slips every time I pick it up. Not a big deal I can rescure itMajor concern the ice and rock salt turns gray because of the mixing. This tells me the outer ice cream container is shedding metallic materials. If the outside does, is that happening inside the container????

Made Perfect Ice CreamWe hadn’t made homemade ice cream in years. This was easy to use and easy to clean.

Works great!Being a diabetic I can only have no sugar low carb products. I am able to make ice cream that does not affect my numbers. Nice not to have to listen to my Dexcom alarming because of a spike.
