Ice cream turned out soft or runny.
Homemade ice cream traditionally has the consistency of a milkshake. If a rmer consistency is preferred, follow these
steps:
Allow the ice cream mixture to freeze further by placing the freezing canister into the freezer. The freezing canister
can also be frozen further by leaving it in the wooden bucket and adding more ice and covering with a towel.
Once the electric motor stops churning, place the hand crank onto the ice cream maker and manually churn until
it reaches the desired consistency.
Recipes that include alcohol (including vanilla or peppermint extract) may inhibit the freezing process. It is best to
add alcoholic ingredients toward the end.
Pay close attention to the amount of rock salt used. Too little salt may inhibit the freezing of ice cream. See step 9 of
“To Make Ice Cream” on page 7 for tips on adding rock salt.
The salt water mixture leaked out
of the wooden bucket.
Before using the ice cream maker, it is necessary to soak the wooden bucket in water for at least one and a half hours.
This allows the wood to expand and prevents leaks. To do so, simply ll the wooden bucket about full with water
and allow it to sit in the sink or another water-safe area. Pour out the water and it is ready to use.
