4. After at least 1½ hours of soaking, empty the water from the bucket prior to
making ice cream.
5. Pour the chilled ice cream mixture into the chilled freezing canister. Do not fill the
freezing canister above the "MAX" line, as the ice cream mixture will expand
during the freezing process.
6. Insert the rounded end of the mixing paddle
freezing canister
7. Place the lid on the freezing canister, inserting the mixing paddle post through the
center of the lid.
8. Place the freezing canister in the wooden bucket, aligned with the centering
bracket in the bottom of the bucket.
9. Slide the rectangular end of the motor unit into the rectangular hole on the rim of
the bucket. Align the mixing paddle post in the hole in the center of the motor
unit. The rounded end of the motor unit will drop into the open end, above the
latch. You may need to rotate the freezing canister so the mixing paddle post fits
into the motor. Gently lift the latch, placing the wire over the rounded end of the
motor and fasten the latch.
10. Evenly distribute about 6 cups of ice around the base of the freezing canister.
The ice should be small or coarsely crushed pieces. Break any large clumps
apart. Ice can be crushed using a mallet or hammer if needed. For each batch of
ice cream, expect to use 1-2 medium bags of ice, about 7-14 pounds.
11. Cover the first layer of ice evenly with about ½ cup of rock salt.
12. Repeat steps 10 and 11, layering ice and salt until it reaches ½ inch below the
hole on the side of the bucket; do not over fill. Adding too much ice will cause the
ice/salt mixture to leak out of the drainage hole and will prevent the ice cream from
churning.
13. Plug the cord into a 120 volt, AC outlet ONLY.
14. Press the "ON/OFF" switch on the motor unit to "ON." As the freezing canister
turns, stir and mix the salt and ice together using a long wooden spoon. Do this
every 10-15 minutes while the ice cream maker is in use. Do not stop the mixing
process prematurely.
15. When the ice melts down 2 to 3 inches, more ice and rock salt should be added.
Do not turn the motor off while adding ice and salt, the motor must continually
run until ice cream is done.
16. It will take approximately 30-40 minutes for the ice cream to be made. If the
motor stops before 30 minutes has elapsed, press the "ON/OFF" switch to "OFF,"
and check for one of the following issues.
If the canister or mixing paddle stops prematurely, check for a piece of ice
blocking the canister from turning. If ice has caused the blockage, keep the
motor "OFF," and mix the ice with a wooden spoon.
If the mixing paddle gets stuck, check the consistency of the ice cream around
the edges of the canister. If it is frozen, use a spatula to loosen it.
Hard ingredients, such as chocolate chips and nuts, can cause the mixing
paddle to get stuck. Add these when ice cream is finished.
If the mixing process is cancelled by the user, the ice cream will harden and
restrict the movement of the mixing paddle.
17. After about 30-40 minutes, the motor should automatically shut off. The freezing
process is now complete. After the motor has stopped, press the "ON/OFF"
switch to "OFF." Unplug the appliance from the outlet. Do not let the ice cream
maker run for longer than 40 minutes.
