5. Fix the lid on the ice container by turning it counterclockwise until it is
tight.
6. Now switch on the ice machine by pressing the On / Off button.
7. Select the ICE CREAM function by repeatedly pressing the Menu button if it
is not already selected. The preset time of 60 minutes is ideal when the ice
cream container is 2/3 full.
8. Start the preparation by pressing the Start / Pause button.
9. If the ice cream does not have the desired firmness at the end of the
program, you can start a maximum of one more 60-minute preparation
process. If, on the other hand, the ice cream is already solid before the set
time has elapsed, then the machine automatically stops the mixing process.
You can remove the finished ice cream.
Note
Be sure to peel and puree fruit only just before preparation. Add fruit pieces only
towards the end of the preparation.
If you prepare ice cream with alcohol, this will extend the freezing time. Add ingre-
dients containing alcohol towards the end of the freezing time.
Removing the finished ice cream
1. When the preparation time has elapsed, the display shows "00:00". When
the ice cream is ready and has the desired consistency, turn the unit off
using the on/off button and unplug the unit from the power outlet.
2.Remove the lid by turning it clockwise. Then remove the ice container from
the cooling housing by the handle, and then carefully pull the stirring part
out of the finished ice. If the ice container is frozen and cannot be removed
from the cooling housing, wait a few minutes to let it thaw slightly before
trying again.
3. Transfer the ice to a container suitable for storing ice. Always use plastic or
wooden spoons or spatulas to remove the ice to avoid accidentally
damaging the ice container.
Tips for extra delicious ice cream and sorbet
The optimal preparation of the ingredients
1. It is advisable to mix the ice cream thoroughly before preparation in order to
obtain a creamy ice cream later. Especially for fruit sorbets, vegan ice cream
or nut varieties, a high-performance blender is indispensable.
2. You can easily use sugar alternatives such as honey, coconut blossom sugar
or dried fruit. Note: Be aware that some sugar alternatives have strong
flavors of their own. As with conventional sugar, the sugar alternative
should make up 15-20% of the total mass.
3. The more sugar you use, the creamier your ice cream will be. Therefore,
make sure that 15-20% of the total mass is sugar.

The optimal preparation
1. Homemade ice cream tastes best fresh. It should be eaten as soon as
possible. If you use eggs, they should be as fresh as possible.
2. When preparing fruit ice cream, always use fruit that is as ripe as possible.
Add them towards the end of the preparation time (this generally applies to
"extra" ingredients such as chocolate chips).
3. Honey or syrup work very well as a sugar substitute.
4. Cream and milk can be substituted as desired. As the proportion of cream
increases, the ice cream becomes creamier.
Soft or solid ice cream
1. Depending on the desired consistency, the ice cream can be consumed
immediately after production, in which case it is usually quite creamy. If a
firmer consistency is desired, then storage in the freezer for about 1-2 hours
before consumption is recommended.
2. To avoid uneven consistency of the ice cream, the ice cream mass should be
well cooled before preparation. If finished ice cream is not removed
immediately after finished preparation, then the ice cream will begin to
melt in the center, while the edge of the ice cream will remain solid due to
contact with the refrigerated container. Remove the finished ice cream as
soon as possible, making sure the composition is 2:1 liquid to solid
ingredients and that 15-20% of the mixture is sugar.
Soft or solid ice cream
1. The ice cream container of the machine is not suitable for storing the ice
cream, it is intended only for preparation. For longer storage, a container
with a lid should be used.
2. Also make sure to remove your ice cream from the machine in good time
and set a max. cold of -10 to -15 °C when storing it in the freezer
compartment, as ice cream freezes at -18 °C and thus still remains creamy.
For consumption, it is recommended to let the ice cream thaw in the
refrigerator for 15-30 minutes.
3. Ice cream can be stored in the freezer or in a chest freezer. The formation
of ice crystals in the container can be avoided by always keeping the
container with as little air as possible or by storing it upside down. This will
cause the crystals to form on the (bottom) lid.
4. Ice cream should be consumed within one week.
Note
Ice cream mass before freezing always tastes significantly sweeter than the resulting
ice cream. This is perfectly normal.
