Frequently Asked Questions - 16310193 Melissa

How do I start making ice cream for the first time?

Plug in the appliance, pour your chilled mixture into the mixing bowl (max 60% full), insert the paddle, attach the lid and turn anticlockwise to lock. Press POWER, then MENU to select Ice Cream function, set time with +/- (default 60 min), and press START/PAUSE.

Do I need to pre-freeze the mixing bowl?

No. The appliance has a built-in compressor that cools the mixture directly, so no pre-freezing is required.

Can I make sorbet with this machine?

Yes. Select the Ice Cream function (which includes mixing and freezing) and follow a sorbet recipe (e.g., 200 ml water, 200 g sugar, 200 g fruit puree). Cool the mixture before pouring.

How do I clean the ice cream maker?

Unplug and let it reach room temperature. Wipe the casing with a damp cloth. Hand wash the mixing bowl, lid, and paddle in warm soapy water. Not dishwasher safe. Dry thoroughly before storage.

Why did my ice cream not freeze properly?

Possible causes: mixture too warm (cool in fridge for 2 hours), bowl overfilled (>60%), or lid not locked. Also ensure the appliance has 8 cm clearance on sides for ventilation.

Can I add chocolate chips or nuts during mixing?

Yes, but add them only when the ice cream is almost ready (e.g., after 15-20 minutes) through the filling port. Do not add large pieces that could jam the paddle.

The machine stopped suddenly. What should I do?

The overheating protection may have activated. Turn off the appliance, unplug it, and let it cool for at least 5 minutes. If the problem persists, contact customer service.

Can I use the appliance outdoors?

No. This appliance is for indoor household use only. Do not expose to rain or direct sunlight, and avoid wet surroundings.

What is the maximum operation time?

The timer can be set from 5 to 60 minutes. For best results, do not exceed 60 minutes continuously. Let the compressor rest for a few minutes between batches.

Is the mixing bowl dishwasher safe?

No. The mixing bowl, lid, and paddle are not dishwasher safe. Wash them by hand with mild detergent to avoid damage to the non-stick coating.

The finished ice cream is quite soft in consistency, so it can be served using a spoon. If you would like the ice cream to have a firmer consistency, transfer the bowl to the freezer (at -18 °C) for 30-60 minutes, depending on how firm you want it to be.

If you wish to continue cooling the finished ice cream in the appliance, just leave the appliance to stand. After the preparation process has ended, the appliance switches to cooling function.

1. Always switch off the appliance and disconnect the plug from the socket when you have finished using the appliance.
2. Take the appliance apart and clean all parts before storing. See "Cleaning".

RECIPES TO INSPIRE YOU

General instructions

• Use caster sugar, as it dissolves easily.
• Mix all ingredients in a bowl before pouring the mixture into the mixing bowl and starting the mixing. Do not add ingredients such as chocolate pieces, nuts or alcohol through the filling port until the ice cream is almost ready.
• Use ripe fruit. Wash fruit thoroughly, peel it, and remove any pips or stones as necessary.
• Use pure fruit juice. This produces a stronger and richer flavour.
• Avoid filling the mixing bowl completely with ice cream or sorbet mixture.
• Certain ingredients require heating, for example boiling of fruit or berries with sugar or melting of chocolate. Mixtures containing warm ingredients should be left to cool in the fridge for 2 hours before being used to make ice cream. By using a basic recipe and adding different ingredients, you can create exactly the flavour you want.

Basic recipe, dairy ice cream

3 pasteurised egg yolks

350 ml milk

70 g sugar

Slowly heat the milk until small bubbles form. Whisk egg yolks and sugar until the sugar has been completely dissolved.

Pour the mixture into the appliance while the paddle is turning. Continue mixing until the sorbet has the desired consistency.

Tip:

• Add blended fruit, grated chocolate or other ingredients, as required.
• Depending on how creamy you want the ice cream to be, you can replace the milk either partially or wholly with cream.
• You can also substitute yoghurt for the milk to make yoghurt ice cream instead.

Basic recipe, sorbet

200 ml water

200 g sugar

200 g blended fruit or 200 ml fruit juice

Pour the water into a saucepan, add the sugar, and stir until the sugar is completely dissolved. Bring to the boil and allow to boil for 2 minutes.
