Review: Ice cream machine - I've been looking around for an ice cream maker for a little while, and I finally got this one a month ago. Me and dairy don't always get on so well together, and I wanted to have a go at making some dairy free stuff myself. My first attempts at making ice cream and frozen yogurt without an ice cream maker weren't so great, so I decided to splash out on a machine. I have to agree with the previous reviewer who said that they didn't expect it to work so well, as it was such a good price. I've been pleasantly surprised. I've used it twice so far, and it's a great machine. (Fingers crossed that it doesn't cut out the next time I use it.) I've only made vanilla ice cream (using two different recipes), but I'm looking forward to trying other flavours and making other frozen treats in the future. The Ben and Jerrys book gave me some good ideas, but, if like me, you and dairy don't get along, there's some great recipes to be found on the internet. I got the bigger model (1.5L), which is great, as the mixture fluffs up quite a bit towards the end of mixing, and I'm afraid of it overflowing the bowl and going everywhere. I should warn you though that the bowl doesn't fit in an average freezer drawer. If you have a chest freezer, it will end up taking permanent residence in it. Also, the finished product is quite soft, so if you want a firmer ice cream, you'll have to put it in the freezer for a few hours. It will freeze quite hard if you leave it overnight, like I did, so you'll have to leave it out of the freezer for about half an hour before you can eat it. I noticed that a lot of people complained about this (or similar) in the more negative reviews, but I think it's common enough. (If it were possible, I think I'd knock off half a star as the recipes that come with the machine are a bit vague about the actual process of making ice cream. I don't recall if the Ben and Jerrys book went into too much detail.) I think it depends quite a lot on what ingredients you use. Highly recommended. Just close the kitchen door and turn the telly up to drown out the noise while it's running. :)
Review: Nice, one minor and one annoying flaw - Easy to use and produces delicious ice cream - so far I have made lemon, ginger with stem ginger chunks, and masala chai ice creams, plus frozen yogurt. The bowl is compact and fits in my drawered freezer (yay) and the maker is easy to use and churns pretty quickly as long as the mixture is cold (so make sure you pop a cooked custard base in the fridge for several hours or even overnight). I have one minor complaint and one more annoying complaint unfortunately. The minor one is that it is hard to get the mixture into the maker while the lid is on - the opening to pour in is pretty small and at an awkward angle, meaning that you have to pour very precisely to get the mixture into the bowl and not make a mess. You could take the lid off but then the mixture would freeze on contact with the walls since there is no stirring action. The larger complaint is that the capacity is 1.5L but it cannot actually churn 1.5L of mixture (I have tried with 1.4L, not 1.5L). Even with a stone-cold mixture and a fresh bowl from the freezer the maker continues to produce small ice crystals but no change in mixture texture otherwise, and after about 40 minutes the motor cuts off due to overheating from trying to mix such a large volume (once cooled it can work again but with this large volume it again fails). I have tried this twice and now am back to making smaller volumes. Not a problem most of the time (you can even just take a larger volume and store the other half in the fridge and freeze a day later) but for Christmas prep it did make things more annoying.

## Features

- ELECTRIC ICE CREAM MAKER FOR HOME USE – The Duronic IM540 is a compact ice cream making machine for making gelato, sorbet, frozen yoghurt and soft serve at home. It uses a pre-freeze bowl system (no built-in compressor), so the bowl needs 8–24 hours in the freezer before churning.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do I need to freeze the bowl before use?**
A: Yes. The bowl of the sorbet maker must be frozen for at least 8 hours before making ice cream to ensure proper freezing results.

**Q: How long does it take to make ice cream?**
A: Once the mixture is added to the churning frozen ice cream maker, it typically takes 15-30 minutes depending on the recipe and consistency desired.

**Q: Can I make dairy-free or vegan ice cream?**
A: Yes. You can use plant-based milks and creams to create dairy-free or vegan-friendly ice cream in this ice cream maker machine.

**Q: Can I add mix-ins like chocolate or fruit?**
A: Yes. Add in toppings such as chocolate chips, nuts or fruit near the end of churning in the ice cream maker for best results.

**Q: Can I store leftover ice cream in the ice cream machine?**
A: No. It is best to transfer ice cream to a freezer-safe container for storage after churning.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works great for Keto ice cream
*by M***L on 15 August 2021*

Just purchased this ice cream maker which arrived yesterday. As soon as I opened the box I cleaned the inner bowl and placed it in the freezer. I then made a basic low carb custard (1liter) with almond milk and cream, erythritol, vanilla essence and 6egg yolks. I also made almond cookie dough and smashed some dark chocolate. I let the mixture cool and then refrigerated it. Next day I churned the custard. Took 30mins to get a soft ice cream. Transferred that to a bowl and mixed in the chocolate and dough and decanted into a 1litre yogurt container for freezing. I’m very happy with the machine so far and it did a good job. The ice cream turned out amazingly. I normally buy a low carb ice cream but I can’t get it anymore so decided to give it a go myself. Glad I did because not only is it very cost effective to make, the machine will pay for itself after 6 batches, but also, the ice cream turned out just as good if not better than what I was purchasing. The machine is not very loud and is easy to clean. I was careful when adding the mix(a jug with a spout is worth having fir this) so not much cleaning required really but if you do make a mess on the lid the motor is detachable for an easy clean. I’ve never used an ice cream machine before so I can’t judge based on others however this machine does it’s job well so I would definitely recommend it. Ive put the inner bowl back into the freezer for next time so it’s ready to go.
