HOW TO USE MANUAL HAND CRANK:
Follow the instructions 1 - 7 from the Electric Motor to assemble the machine and the
Hand Crank to the wooden bucket.
1. The Manual Hand Crank is recommended for use to aerate the ice cream
contents to help add air into the mixture to make it thicker.
2. It is usually suggested to use towards the last 10-15 minutes of the freezing
process. It will also help freeze the contents more.
3. During the Hand Cranking process, both the Canister and the Blending
Spatula will spin in opposite directions of each other.
TIPS & NOTES:
•
Use ice that is crushed inside the bucket. Ice should be small, coarse pieces.
•
As the canister is turning, make sure to periodically mix salt and ice together by
using the plastic stirrer every 10-15 minutes while the machine is in use.
•
It is recommended to store the ice cream inside the freezing canister.
•
If the ice cream consistency is too soft, put the contents into a freezable
container and freeze for 3-4 hours. The manual hand crank can also be used to
crank the ice cream inside the canister to the desired consistency.
•
For recipes that require pre-cooking, it is recommended that ingredients be
prepped several hours ahead. The mixture s will need to be allowed time to chill
and expand.
CAUTION:
•
Do not plug up the drainage hole on the side of the wooden bucket. This is for
draining excess salt water and should be kept open at all times.
•
If the electric motor stops churning before the 45-minutes is complete, check to
make sure there is no blockage of ice jamming against the canister. If there is ice
blocking the canister, turn off the motor and remove the jammed ice.
•
The electric motor will automatically shut off if the ingredients in the canister
are too thick or too hard to blend anymore. Once removed, the motor will
function normally again.
