HOW TO OPERATE

1. First, nd a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Make sure the cord

is away from any water source. It is acceptable to use an extension cord if needed.

2. Chill the Canister until cold to the touch.

3. Choose your favorite recipe and prepare ice cream mixture per the

recipe instructions. Refrigerate ice cream mixture until chilled.

4. Insert the Canister into the bottom of the Bucket. Be sure the Canister is centered

and placed over the star-shaped gear in the bottom of the Bucket.

5. Next, place the Dasher into the Canister. Make sure the round tip at the end

of the Dasher sits in the concave divot at the bottom of the Canister.

6. Center the Locking Lid over the Canister and Bucket, making sure the

notches on each end of the Locking Lid are placed into the openings on the

rim of the Bucket. Twist the Locking Lid counterclockwise to secure.

7. Pour chilled ice cream mixture into the chilled Canister. Make sure you do not ll the

Canister more than ²/3 full, as the ice cream mixture will expand during the freezing process.

8. Before adding ice, be sure that the ice you put into the bucket is broken into small,

rough pieces. You may use a mallet or hammer to break into smaller pieces if

needed. For each batch of ice cream, expect to use at least 1 (7 lb.) bag of ice.

9. Fill the Bucket with a small layer of

ice (about 6 cups) evenly distributed

around the base of the Canister.

10. Cover the rst layer of ice evenly with a thin layer of

rock salt (about ½ cup). Regular table salt or kosher

salt can also be used. It may take a total of 2 to 4

cups of salt to freeze the ice cream mixture properly

(1 lb. salt = 2 cups / 2 lbs. salt = 4 cups).

NOTE: Salt is an important and necessary

part of the freezing process. Generally,

the more salt used, the better.

11. Repeat steps 9 and 10, layering

the ice and salt until ½ the Bucket is lled with the ice/salt mixture. Always

be careful to not add any ice or salt into the ice cream mixture.

12. Now, place the Top Lid onto the Bucket, plug the power cord into the wall outlet,

and press the Power Button to turn the unit on and start the churning process.

13. While the ice cream mixture is churning, ll the Bucket with additional layers of ice and salt

through the Ice/Salt Chute. Continue adding layers of ice and salt until it reaches the bottom

of the drainage hole, located on the side of the Bucket. Adding more ice may cause the

mixture to leak out of the drainage hole.

NOTE: To more easily add ice or salt, it is okay to remove

the Top Lid during the churning process.

14. As the Canister turns, stir and mix the salt and ice together every 10-15

minutes, or as needed. When the ice melts down 2 to 3 inches, you may want to add more

ice and salt to the Bucket through the Ice/Salt Chute.
