Frequently Asked Questions - ICM401 BLAUPUNKT

How long does it take to make ice cream?

The default ice cream program lasts 1 hour. You can adjust the time using the +/- buttons in 1-minute increments.

Can I make yogurt with this machine?

Yes, the Yogurt mode maintains a temperature of ~42°C for 8 hours to ferment milk, then switches to cooling. Use 600ml milk and starter or 50ml plain yogurt.

What is the maximum capacity for ice cream?

Do not fill the bowl more than 60% because the mixture expands during freezing. Overfilling may cause spillage or motor issues.

How do I clean the ice cream maker?

Remove the bowl and mixing blade and wash them with warm soapy water. Wipe the transparent cover and housing with a damp cloth. Never immerse the motor body in water.

The mixing blade stopped during operation. What should I do?

This is the motor protection function. If the ice cream is too frozen, the motor stops to prevent damage. Pause the machine, let it soften slightly, then restart.

Can I use metal utensils with the bowl?

No, avoid metal cutlery or sharp tools as they can scratch the non-stick surface of the bowl. Use plastic or silicone spatulas.

Is the refrigerant flammable?

Yes, the unit uses R600a (isobutene), which is flammable. If you suspect a leak, avoid open flames, ventilate the room, and contact a service professional.

The appliance does not turn on. What should I check?

First, ensure it is plugged into a grounded outlet and the socket has power. Press the On/Off button on the front. If still off, check the fuse or circuit breaker.

Can I use the appliance to cool drinks without making ice cream?

Yes, the Cooling mode (default 10 minutes) chills the bowl and contents. You can use it to cool ingredients or pre-chill the bowl.

What does the Blend mode do?

The Blend mode mixes ingredients without freezing, useful for combining complex recipes. Default duration is 30 minutes, but you can adjust it.

DESCRIPTION OF OPERATING MODES

1. Ice cream preparation mode

The ice cream preparation mode is a complete procedure consisting of a mixing and freezing phase. By default, this mode lasts for 1 hour. In the first phase, the ingredients are mixed, the temperature is lowered. In the last preparation phase, mixing is stopped.

1. Cooling mode:

This mode allows you to start cooling independently. By default, this mode lasts for 10 minutes. It is used to chill the ingredients in the bowl or to additionally freeze the prepared ice cream.

1. Blend mode ( premix mode when you want to combine ingredients):

This mode is used to mix the ingredients for more complex recipes when the standard mixing phase in the ice cream preparation programme is insufficient. The default duration is 30 minutes.

1. Yoghurt mode

In yoghurt mode, the machine maintains a higher temperature for a period of 8 hours to speed up fermentation. After this time, it switches to cooling mode to maintain a lower temperature and slow down the fermentation process.

MOTOR PROTECTION FUNCTION

When the ingredients are heavily frozen, motor operation and mixing will be stopped.

CONTROLLING THE VOLUME OF INGREDIENTS

To avoid overfilling and boiling, make sure that the ingredients do not exceed 60% of the container capacity (ice cream expands during moulding). It is recommended that the ingredients for yoghurt do not exceed 80% of the volume of the inner bowl.

HOW TO PREPARE THE ICE CREAM:

Step 1.

Prepare the ingredients:

Cream: 180g

Milk powder: 120g

Water: 200g

Mix thoroughly together, pour into a cooling bowl.

Step 2.

HOW TO PREPARE YOGHURT

(1) Yoghurt is made from milk that has undergone pasteurisation and homogenisation processes. The lactic acid bacteria that are added to the milk convert the lactose into lactic acid, which leads to the characteristic structure of yoghurt.

(2) The optimum temperature for ripening plain yoghurt is around 42-44°C, while for vegan or lactose-free yoghurt a temperature of around 38°C is recommended. The maturation

time may vary depending on the ingredients used and the desired consistency of the yoghurt.

(3) the density of the yoghurt depends on the fat content of the milk. Yoghurt made from milk with a fat content of 3.5% will be rather firm, while that from milk with a fat content of 1.5% will be softer.
(4) In order to obtain good results in yoghurt production, it is important to ensure excellent hygiene of all tools and ingredients, as dairy products are particularly sensitive.
(5) only milk and bacterial cultures should be used to make yoghurt. Additives such as sugar, fruit or flavourings are only added to the finished yoghurt.
(6) Longer maturation time ensures a firmer yoghurt texture and a more intense flavour.
(7) disturbances during maturation, such as vibration and shaking, can cause the yoghurt to remain liquid and not achieve the right consistency.

- 600 l milk

- Starter or 50 ml of plain yoghurt stored in cold storage.

Notes:

Before adding the above ingredients, check that they are not out of date or spoiled. Adjust the amount of lactic acid bacteria starter according to the starter instructions.
