 Fantastic and Fun |

| We found the key to making great ice cream is to get some dry ice. Put the dry ice inside the bucket and into the freezer for about one hour. The dry ice accelerates the freezing and really works great for fast turnaround. Without the dry ice, the bucket has to freeze for a minimum of 20 or so hours. Awesome and fun machine.. |
Coolest Thing EVER!!!!!

| We received this as a family Christmas gift. My son has severe nut allergies and we cannot buy much in the way of ice cream products from the store. Plus I love soft serve ice cream. So this has saved the day. We use it almost every night. We mix up the liquid when we make dinner. We put it in the refrigerator until dinner is ready. Then a few minutes into dinner I hop up insert the bowl and pour in the mixture. The only catch is the recipes in the booklet are way too much volume to get a proper consistency of ice cream. So we half all recipes and it it works great. We make the vanilla most often and use 1/2 cup 2% milk and 1 cup nonfat. The full fat version in the recipe book is yummy, but not appropriate (way too much fat) for our family given we have it for desert most nights. Approx. 20 minutes ice cream is done. We have done as much as a 3/4 recipe (3/4 cup 2% - 1 1/2 cup non fat)and it works. But that is the maximum you can use if you want it to freeze to a proper soft serve ice cream consistency. The lid also tends to pop up once the consistency gets thicker so we use one of my 5 lb weights to rest on top and keep the lid in place. The only draw back is if you have a bigger family (it is just the 3 of us) it doesn't make a bunch of ice cream relative quantity. This is a great machine. We all highly recommend it. |
Not bad for the first time trying

We "bought" one of these using our reward points from a credit card.
Used it last night for the first time. It worked just as it said it would. We froze the bowl overnight, making sure there was no noise when we shook it. Whisked the ingredients in a bowl, turned the maker on and slowly poured the ingredients in. The grandkids watched it almost the whole 20 minutes! We made the vanilla last night and are trying the chocolate tonight. The first little bit that comes out is liquid (as it says in the booklet) and it takes a little practice getting in the cone, but over-all we all enjoyed it. I'm ordering a second bowl to have on-hand for larger gatherings. (Although, we figured the cost out - it's cheaper to buy store bought ice cream on sale! too bad...) |
Works!

| I enjoy the machine. For my first try I used the vanilla frozen yogurt recipe, but with 2% milk instead of whole. The only complaint I have is that it comes out in dollops, not like a continuous swirl... oh well, tastes good! |

| The Cuisinart Ice Cream Maker makes great ice cream, but we haven't been able to get it to the right consistency so that it comes out of the dispenser. It seems to be either too runny or too hard. |
