Problem
Ice cream is
not firm
enough
Things to Check
• The cylinder bowl was not in the freezer long
enough (preferably overnight).
• The freezer is not cold enough. Ice cream sets at
10 to 14°F (-10 to -12°C). If the freezer is not at 0°F
(-18°C) the ice cream will not set.
• Too much mixture was put in cylinder bowl.
Maximum fill is 1 quart.
• Ingredients are warm or at room temperature.
• The cylinder bowl was left at room temperature for
more than 5 minutes before use.
• The freezer door was opened and closed too many
times during the freezing process.
• The freezer bowl has a thick coating of ice on the
walls. After washing, dry completely prior to placing
back in freezer.
