Review: It was time to replace our old and venerable Cuisinart freezer bowl ice cream maker after 25+ years. I decided to look at upright ice-cream makers with a built-in compressor. Most reviews named Whynter as one of the best ice cream makers. I chose this one, because it's an upright with a small footprint, and the 1.26 quart since there are only 2 of us. After allowing the machine to sit on the counter for 2 hours, per instructions, I made my first batch of ice cream. Knowing that it was out for delivery, I had my mixture done and chilling in the refrigerator. Needless to say, it came out perfect. The machine starts at a default of 60 minutes, so I set my phone cooking timer for 60 minutes. It had already stopped and the ice-cream was so frozen, I couldn't get the paddle out easily. I didn't want to force it, so I got out what I could and by that time, the paddle came out. I've learned that the freezer stops churning at round 30-40 minutes, using the recipe that I use. I set my cooking timer app for 30 minutes, and if it's stopped, I get the ice-cream out and into storage; if not, I let it continue to churn for another 10 minutes. I've made 3 loads, one right after another. Yes, the ingredient cannister will freeze to the inside of the machine. It's because there's frost on the outside from the previous load and air humidity. Simply empty the ice-cream into your freezer container, then add a cup of hot water to the can; it'll let loose immediately. You can prevent this from happening by spraying a small amount of any cooking spray to a cloth or paper towel, then rub it on the OUTSIDE of the ingredient holder, sides and bottom, which will prevent it from sticking. I prefer to make old-fashioned ice cream or gelato, but both require a cooked "custard" base with egg yolks. With the astronomical price of eggs, I've found a couple of ways to circumvent the eggs without compromising flavor or texture. "American" modern ice-cream simply calls for a 2 to 1 ratio of milk to cream, plus sugar, and vanilla. There's nothing wrong with this. We prefer the richer texture and taste of the old-fashioned variety. I've found 3 solutions: 1. Sicilian gelato. This uses cornstarch instead of egg yolks in the custard base. It also uses a 1 to 1 ratio of cream to milk. You can find a recipe easily on the internet. Like the old-fashioned recipes, this requires cooking, then cooling completely in the refrigerator prior to mixing with cream and freezing. I've found another way of creating an old-fashioned flavor without cooking. 2. I use one 3.4 ounce package of instant vanilla pudding with 4 cups of milk, which makes a thickened base of the right consistency. I mix it with 2 cups of cream. I reduce the sugar and add vanilla for our taste. You can use sugar free pudding mix with a sugar alternative for people who don't like or can't eat sugar. It comes out like old-fashioned ice cream without tasting like pudding. I know many of you may not like all of the ingredients in instant pudding. Frankly, neither do I. I make my own vanilla extract, so I prefer an alternative to the pudding, so I came up with a third alternative. 3. I use .75 ounce (21g) of an instant (no cook) modified food starch, in place of the pudding mix. I have a biochemistry degree. Modified food starch is simply food starch that's heated and pressed, which changes its structure, allowing it to thicken liquids without heating. The Whynter ice-cream maker makes beautiful ice cream without ice crystals. It freezes the mix more solidly than a maker that uses containers that require pre-freezing. I already have a yogurt maker, so I look forward to making frozen yogurt. We're also going to make frozen drinks. I've made homemade butter with my mixer. That's on the bucket list too. Review: Love this ice cream machine. A nice change over the Cuisinart Ice cream machine that you have to put bucket in freezer. It is not noisy. Just a soft humming sound so you know it is churning. Easy to operate. Very good ice cream recipe book included. Make the 3 ingredient vanilla ice cream. It is delicious. ## Features - Award-Winning Ice Cream Maker: Recognized by Good Housekeeping as a 2024 "Best Kitchen Gear Awards" winner, this automatic ice cream machine makes up to 1.28 quarts of ice cream per batch; Add fruit, nuts, and syrups to enjoy customized frozen treats - Self-Freezing Technology: No need to pre-freeze a bulky canister or bowl, this self-cooling electric ice cream maker allows you to quickly and easily make gelato, ice cream, and sorbet using ingredients you trust from the comfort of home - Convenient Continuous Use: This homemade ice cream maker features a powerful built-in compressor freezer that allows for continuous use without the inconvenience of having to pre-freeze the removable bowl; BPA-free churn blade also included - Premium Features: Unlike other ice cream makers, the Whynter ice cream maker with compressor freezer features an extended cooling function that prevents ice cream from melting and a motor protection function that protects against overheating / damage - Compact & Stylish: This upright ice cream machine combines sleek design with functionality.

Is this normal?** A: I just looked at mine and there is a slight bulge just right of center on the front - hadn't noticed it. Doesn't seem dented or anything - maybe just a little bulge to accommodate the cooling compressor. FYI - I have made almost 50 quarts of ice cream with no problems what-so-ever. You only need to put in about 3 cups of mix as the volume expands as it mixes and freezes. It will NOT freeze solid. When it gets stiff and barely turns, you need to shut it off - scrape the dasher and bannister into another container - I use quart size cardboard containers - and put in your freezer to finish the freezing process. **Q: Does it have a cooling compressor so I dont have to freeze the container?** A: The unit contains a compressor that freezes the mixture and does not require to freeze the bowl prior to use.
