Title: Makes the best ice cream
Review: I recently purchased the Whynter Ice Cream Maker Machine & Yogurt Automatic 2 Qt. with Built-in Compressor, and it has been a game-changer for my kitchen! For years I have been looking for an ice cream maker that you don't need to store in the freezer for 24 hours, You don't have to do that anymore with this all you have to do is prepare the ice cream mixture and place it into the stainless steel mixing bowl and place the blade & put the cover on then turn it on. Now the built-in compressor does all of the work making it cold and frozen. I have made several different kinds of ice cream with this machine since receiving it and have loved the results every time. Here are some other reasons to enjoy ice cream/ yogurt with this machine.Performance and Convenience: This machine is incredibly easy to use and delivers fantastic results every time. The built-in compressor means thereâs no need to pre-freeze the bowl, which saves a lot of time and hassle. I can make delicious ice cream, gelato, sorbet, and even yogurt with just the push of a button.Quality and Durability: The stainless steel construction is not only sleek and stylish but also durable and easy to clean. The machine feels solid and well-built, and I have no doubt it will last for many years.Versatility: One of the standout features is its versatility. Whether Iâm in the mood for a creamy gelato or a healthy yogurt, this machine handles it all with ease. The extended cooling function ensures that my ice cream doesnât melt if I leave it in the machine for a bit longer, which is a thoughtful touch.User-Friendly: The LCD digital display and timer make it easy to monitor the progress and set the perfect time for my recipes. The motor protection function is also a great feature, as it prevents the motor from overheating or getting damaged when the mixture becomes too solid.Capacity: With a 2-quart capacity, itâs perfect for making enough dessert for family gatherings or parties. I love being able to customize my creations with different fruits, nuts, and syrups to suit everyoneâs tastes.Overall, the Whynter Ice Cream Maker Machine & Yogurt Automatic 2 Qt. with Built-in Compressor is a fantastic addition to any kitchen. It combines convenience, quality, and versatility in one sleek package. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to elevate their homemade dessert game!

Title: Like a pro in a few minutes. 😉
Review: Received this ice cream maker about 3 hours ago.In anticipation, I had already prepared 4 different flavors of frozen custard. However, it was still about 130 degrees and still cooling in the fridge.Not to be deterred, I liberated my new toy from its box, skimmed the directions, cleaned the bowl, dumped in about 6 ounces of still hot coffee flavored custard base ( I wanted to see how well it would make a single serving of ice cream) , turned it on, and waited. I watched the silky surface of the soon to be deliciousness as it churned. Mesmerized. My daughter asked if it was a good movie. I said it was good and did not have any commercials. She said, more like one long continuous commercial. Hint taken. I went to socialize. Seriously, just 27 minutes later and we were in ice cream glory. (ok, about 37 minutes if you include the liberation, reading, and cleaning.) From hot to frozen...lickety split! She got to have fresh made ice cream over her lunch break. She quickly assessed the recipe for what ingredients she needed to drop off to make more ice cream. I am guessing that is for ME to make her more ice cream.It took about a minute, or less, to wash the bucket. Then I dried it and replaced it in the machine. Wow. No ice. No salt. No mess. Tears of joy!Obviously, I am a novice with the machine since I have only had it a few hours. I can say that ease of use is phenomenal. Set it on the counter, clean the container and dry it really well before replacing it so it does not freeze in place, pour in ingredients, put lid on, and turn it on. Then wait. But not for long. Clean up is also a snap. It is very compact compared to what I had expected. I had visions of a monstrosity setting on my counter. It is big, but not obnoxiously huge. No more of a foot print than a kitchen aid mixer.Pros: has 3 settings 1- making ice cream 2- holding it at a cold temperature 3-mixing ingredients for non cooked recipes (eggless ice creams,sorbet, margarita, slush,....etc.) quick set up user panel is fairly intuitive removable container for easy cleanup not terribly loud - also comparable to using a stand mixer noise level, not as loud as the ones with ice/salt needed able to make even a single serving -- I have glass jars with the flavored base ready in the refrigerator waiting able to make 2 quarts for when you need/want more no foreign objects in my ice cream....the last time I used the salt/ice method, either the ice or salt must have had something in it and I covered the to top of the bucket with ice,salt, so I don't know, but all three flavors had shards of glass or plastic in them. Was not too happy. All of my utensils and containers were metal. I am guessing the culprit was either the ice or salt. The end product did not taste salty, so probably the ice. No idea. Or maybe the plastic paddle was chipping off. Just....grrrrrrrr. I have been glaring at that old churn for nearly a year and just decided the heck with it.cons: not sure yet. will use it a few times and let you know. I am interested in the design so far as cleaning up if your freezing container over runs.edit 8/2019 : if you make more than two batches in a row, it gets iced up. I now make two and then let it set for a couple if hours just because I do not want to risk breaking something. Better safe than sorry.hints: if you have a high powered blender, toss all of your ice cream ingredients in the container ( like making blender soups ) at once and blitz until you have a thick enough consistency. no scrambled eggs. no fuss. I just set my container on a scale and dump and tare as needed. Then I blitz it and pour into a jar and keep in the fridge. Or just pour it in the machine and make it right away.Have had this for a few weeks. LOVE it. The churn is not super fast, therefore the overrun is not particularly high. The end result is a nice, creamy texture for your final result. Clean up is super fast. I have not had any batches that have spilled into the cooling chamber. You would need to spend a bit of time cleaning that up since that chamber is not removable. Advice: don't do that.I generally do not care for things like chocolate icecream and chocolate cake. I find the flavor to be subdued and bland. Today I made some chocolate icecream that reminded me of a scoop I had in a historic area of Indianapolis when I was younger. All I need is some fudgey brownie chunks and it would have been perfection. It is super creamy and almost has the flavor of a dark chocolate pudding. I am sharing the recipe with you here. Note: I make all of my icecream using a vitamix. Super simple.Fudgey Chocolate Ice Cream 4 egg yolks4 Tablespoons dark chocolate cocoa1 pinch sea salt3/4 cup white sugar1 tablespoon vanilla extract (imitation)1/8 teaspoon butter flavor1 cup heavy cream1/4 cup whole milk3 tablespoons corn syrup1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin powderPut all in Vitamix. Let the blender run until the ice cream base is steaming and just beginning to look like custard.About 7 to 9 minutes.Mix in fudge brownie crumbles after done churningEither spin the ice cream right away or store/chill in the fridge.Makes about a pint of ice cream.update 8/2019 : Still loving this item. We use it less often, but I still get short notice requests for icecream because everyone knows how quick it is to do now. Have made frozen coke, slushes, sorbet, and lots of icecream with this. Still a big thumbs up!

Review: Por el momento llevo 3 tandas y solo la uso para elaborar sorbetes y helados, me encanta el resultado del producto, al principio tenÃa mis dudas, pero me animé a comprarla, no me arrepiento de pedirla, estoy contento, posteriormente haré mis pruebas con la incubación de yogurt, saludos.Para las personas que tiene fallas de el enfriamiento o se les rompe la pala, lean bien el instructivo, procuren secar bien el equipo para que el agua que quede residual en su equipo, esté haga que se congele y se quede pegado, es un equipo bueno pero sensible, procurar seguir las instrucciones del uso.

Review: This product is probably the best youâll get for a non-commercial machine. You can tell itâs high quality when you turn it on from the sound of the motor. It sounds like an industrial fridge. Not loud. You can just hear the power of the motor.

Review: Tengo 2 años con ella y funciona perfectamente. Tengo negocio de nieves en la colonia y he vendido más de 300 litros. Sà es ruidosa y no es muy cómodo sacar el producto terminado pero te acostumbras a eso. La recomiendo si tu producción es baja.
