Troubleshooting Problem Unit does not stop churning. Ice is jammed. Salty tasting ice cream. Poor drainage. Ice cream overflows canister during churning. Cover turns; canister does not turn. Probable Cause/SOLUTION • The unit may not stop churning when making less than the FILL line level. • Recipe was not followed correctly. • Ratio of ice and salt was not correct; add more salt. Correct amount of salt must be used for ice cream to freeze. • Unplug unit from outlet. Turn canister in ice to free jammed ice. Plug in unit to restart. • While churning, check to ensure that salt water is draining out of the two openings in the bucket. Before opening canister, wipe all salt, ice, and water from cover. Do not allow salt, ice, and water to seep into the canister and ruin the ice cream. • Make sure drain opening is not blocked with ice or salt. • Ice cream mixture expands when frozen. If recipe exceeds the FILL line, ice cream will overflow canister. • Ensure cover is correctly seated on canister. Recipes Old-Fashioned Vanilla Ice Cream This recipe takes a little longer, but it is worth the effort. 3 cups (710 ml) sugar 1/4 teaspoon (1.2 ml) salt 5 cups (1.18 L) whole milk 6 large eggs, beaten 4 1/2 cups (1.06 L) heavy whipping cream 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) vanilla extract Directions: In heavy saucepan, combine sugar, salt, and milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally until mixture is steaming. Reduce heat to low. In medium bowl, slightly beat eggs. Slowly whisk half of the hot mixture into the eggs and pour back into saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat until slightly thick, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat and refrigerate until chilled or overnight. When ready to make ice cream, stir heavy cream and vanilla into chilled custard mixture.
