Product description

The Snowberry & Choc ice cream machine from Klarstein is a cold refreshing hero on hot days. In less than an hour, the ice cream maker’s powerful compressor creates delicious refreshing ice cream in its 1.2-litre ice cream container, sure to make your children’s eyes light up. The preparation is simple: add ingredients according to your taste or mood - or chosen recipe - to the removable ice cream container, close the lid and let the Snowberry & Choc get to work. After 30 to 40 minutes, depending on the ingredients used, the ice cream is ready for you to enjoy. Thanks to the powerful compressor motor, no pre-cooling of the ingredients is required. You can start whenever you, your family and your guests crave a refreshing treat.

Prepare beloved classics like creamy vanilla, delicately melting chocolate or fruity strawberry ice cream with fresh ingredients, or allow your experimental mood to take over to create a completely new ice cream inspired by your imagination. A flap in the transparent lid allows you to actively add ingredients during the preparation time: crunchy pistachios, a shot of Caribbean rum, bittersweet chocolate chips or a splash of refreshing lemon? No problem, simply open the lid and put it in, the machine does not even need to be stopped. If you want to make even more recipe changes or additions, you can also pause the ice cream machine to stop the operation process. This not only keeps the stirring blades in place, but also pauses the preparation timer until you restart the Klarstein Snowberry & Choc again.

For optimal ice cream results, you can set the working time of the ice cream maker itself. A large control knob allows you adjust preparation time to the minute, so that you can determine the precise consistency of your ice cream exactly to your taste, whether you prefer it soft and creamy or rather stiff and icy. An LED display shows the selected or remaining operating time. So that the freshly prepared ice cream isn’t immediately melted by the summer heat, the Snowberry & Choc switches to a one-hour keep-cool mode after the preparation timer ends. After use, the stirring blades, cover and ice cream container can be easily removed and cleaned.

Visually, the Snowberry & Choc embodies its function in a housing made of cool, brushed stainless steel, making it the ice queen of your kitchen or party zone.

Available colours: brushed stainless steel look.

Geschmack ist wunderbar, lediglich die Arbeit mit dem Herumwuchten der Maschine ist Mühselig. Das Reinigen muss einem auch liegen, zwar nur die Kälterührschüssel, aber genau da ist es kniffelig. Wer das hin bekommt, hat mit dem Gerät viel Spaß. Mit Kindern auch doppelt Spaß, die lecken gerne den Rührwendel ab und kratzen die Schüssel aus ( bitte nicht mit Metall-Löffeln). Das Eis ist für mich toll und sollte sofort genossen werden. Einbunkern im Kühlfach ist nicht gut, dann wird das Eis Ziegelhart wie das Zeug aus dem Supermarkt.

Taste is wonderful, only the work of balancing the machine is tedious. You also have to be able to clean it, only the cold mixing bowl, but that's where it gets tricky. Anyone who can do that will have a lot of fun with the device. Double the fun with children, they like to lick the mixing paddle and scrape out the bowl (please do not use metal spoons). The ice cream is great for me and should be enjoyed immediately. Stashing it in the freezer isn't good, it makes the ice cream as hard as the stuff from the supermarket.

Facilità nell utilizzo, molto comoda la scelta della vaschetta estraibile. Un po di accumulo di ghiaccio nella parte alta, quasi alla fine del ciclo, dovuto alle pale che restano staccate dalla vaschetta non riuscendo a mescolare il composto. Solo nella la parte alta, il resto è perfettamente omogeneo. É rumoroso, ma alla fine viene compensato dalla delizia di avere in casa un buon gelato con la scelta personale degli ingredienti. Quelli alla frutta sono più semplici da preparare, gli altri gusti sono più complessi e richiedono ingredienti specifici. Non uso prodotti preparati.

Ease of use, very convenient choice of removable tray. A little ice accumulation in the upper part, almost at the end of the cycle, due to the blades remaining detached from the tray unable to mix the mixture. Only in the upper part, the rest is perfectly homogeneous. It is noisy, but in the end it is compensated by the delight of having a good ice cream at home with the personal choice of ingredients. The fruit ones are easier to prepare, the other flavors are more complex and require specific ingredients. I do not use prepared products.

Ho acquistato con un certo scetticismo questa macchina per fare il gelato su consiglio di mia moglie che insisteva da tempo. Mai scelta è stata più azzeccata. In mezz' ora riesce a fare un gelato buonissimo, meglio della gelateria. Sicuramente gran parte del merito è di mia moglie che ha delle mani d'oro ma anche la macchina fa sicuramente il suo lavoro.

I bought this ice cream maker with some skepticism on the advice of my wife who had been insisting for a long time. Never has a choice been more appropriate.

I had previously bought the smaller Klarstein that will only take 300mls at a time, but this one is far better. It takes about 700mls, has a removable pail so it is easy to get the ice cream out and easy to clean...you can choose how long you set the timer for, up to an hour but I find 45minutes for ice cream, less for sorbet. It is heavy though, but not so heavy that you can't move it!

Really solid machine which does exactly what it is meant to do, with no unnecessary frills. It is by no means silent, but the noise level is perfectly acceptable. The ice cream is smooth and well blended. One small thing to note. If you freeze the ice cream too much it will be difficult to get the blade out of the machine and the ice cream off the blade. Not a fault of the machine, just something to watch out for. I would definitely recommend.

Als das Gerät ankam, probierten wir es gleich aus. Es bildete jedoch zunächst kein Eis. Als Kältetechnik Meister untersuchte ich das Gerät und es stellte sich heraus, dass ein Kabel des Kondensatorlüfters nicht angeschlossen war. Ich behob den Fehler selbst. Jetzt habe ich zwar keine Gewährleistung mehr, aber das Gerät funktioniert einwandfrei. Ich hoffe, dass innerhalb der nächsten zwei Jahre kein weiterer Schaden entsteht. Ansonsten ein empfehlenswertes Gerät.

When the device arrived, we tried it out right away. However, no ice initially formed. As a refrigeration master craftsman, I examined the unit and found that a condenser fan wire was disconnected.

Overall, this is a wonderful machine! It makes really great ice cream and sorbet without taking up space in your freezer and with no pre-chilling or cooking required. It takes barely 30 minutes in operation to make a batch and adding extra ingredients during the mixing is very easy thanks to the hatch in the cover. Just following the recipes in the included instruction leaflet, you get great tasting ice cream with an excellent texture. The mixing bowl, paddle and lid come apart easily for cleaning but the design of the paddle does make getting all of the ice cream off a bit of a faff (no hardship for those that like to lick it clean!). It's quiet in operation and very simple to drive and doesn't take up a lot of counter space (though you can pay twice as much for big name brands that have half the footprint). The description of the "keep cool function" is confusing and I haven't quite figured out exactly what it does: it certainly doesn't actively keep the ice cream cold for an hour after the mixing time has finished - which the wording seems to imply. These are fairly minor niggles in a machine that does a brilliant job at a very reasonable price.

Sorbet braucht 1l mindestens eine Stunde, ich hatte Melonensorbet ausprobiert mit einer vorgekühlten Wassermelonenmasse. Man muss sich Zeit lassen, ansonsten funktioniert es.

Leckeres Eis in einer Stunde. Wir haben die Eismaschine schon häufig genutzt und für vier bis fünf Personen reicht die Füllmenge locker aus. Wir füllen sie allerdings nicht bis zur Markierung weil die Menge vom Volumen her größer wird. Der Rührstab verbindet sich mit dem fertigem Eis und es ist deswegen schwierig mit dem beigelegtem Eiskugelformer Kugeln zu formen. Wir ziehen ihn einfach raus und trennen Eis und Rührstab mit einem Kunststoff Löffel. Die Geräusche stören hinter der geschlossenen Kuchentür nicht.

Delicious ice cream in an hour. We have used the ice cream maker quite often and the capacity is easily enough for four to five people. However, we do not fill them up to the mark because the amount increases in volume. The stirring rod sticks to the finished ice cream and it is therefore difficult to form balls with the included ice ball maker. We just pull it out and separate the ice and stirrer with a plastic spoon. The noises are not disturbing behind the closed cake door.

It's a fantastic machine. Ice-cream is quick and easy to make and I love the cooling time of an hour after the program ends. Nice that you can add fruit pieces or other ingredients towards the end to enhance the flavour. I bought this in April 2020 to have icecream available for my children during the lockdown and it's been a real treat for the whole family. When someone pays a visit I don't have to think what to serve, I just start it before they come or as they come and I have a cooling refreshing dessert in no time. So far I used single cream, natural yogurt, coconut cream, milk or oatmilk, any fruits (fresh or frozen), cinnamon powder, and other flavours ( vanilla, strawberry, mint) or pure essential oils (wild orange, clementine, lime). It's easy to play around with ingredients to make a delicious ice cream.

Me a gustado por la facilidad de preparar helados saludables, yo soy diabetica y así me los preparo con el edulcorante que me interese. Es rapida en 30 minutos ya esta listo para comer y si sobra lo congelo y aunque se ponga mas duro lo puedes dejar que se temple o meter al microondas 10 segundos y listo. El unico pero que le pongo es que hace bastante ruido pero como es poco rato se pasa enseguida.

I liked it because it's easy to make healthy ice cream. I'm diabetic and I make it this way with the sweetener I like. It's quick, in 30 minutes it's ready to eat and if there's any left over I freeze it and even if it gets harder you can let it cool down or put it in the microwave for 10 seconds and it's ready. The only thing I have to say about it is that it makes a lot of noise but since it's only a short time it goes away quickly.

Ho provato la gelatiera più volte prima di scrivere una recensione. E' davvero un buon prodotto, ovvio non è una macchina professionale, ma il suo lavoro lo fa bene. Le istruzioni sono in italiano ed è facilissima da usare; inoltre ci sono alcune ricette in fondo al manuale. Ottima anche per fare sorbetti e yogurt soft. Un consiglio: quando impostate il tempo mettete sempre 10 minuti in più rispetto a quello consigliato e per un gelato perfetto mezz'oretta in freezer prima di servirlo. Super consigliata!!

I tried the ice cream maker several times before writing a review. It's a really good product, obviously it's not a professional machine, but it does its job well. The instructions are in Italian and it's very easy to use; there are also some recipes at the end of the manual. It's also excellent for making sorbets and soft yogurt. A tip: when you set the time always put 10 minutes more than recommended and for a perfect ice cream half an hour in the freezer before serving it. Highly recommended!!

Si te gusta el helado ya estas tardando en comprarlo. Le metimos "caña" de verdad y se ha comportado de maravilla. Que se puede hacer como siempre (sacando la crema del congelador varias veces y batirla) si, pero la textura que se consigue con este aparato no se consigue de esa forma. RECOMENDADO

If you like ice cream, you should buy it now. We really tried it and it has performed wonderfully. You can make it as usual (taking the cream out of the freezer several times and mixing it), but the texture that you get with this machine cannot be achieved that way. RECOMMENDED

Die Eismaschine funktioniert sehr gut. Eis ist nach Ablauf der Rührzeit noch etwas weich. Denke wenn man noch etwas nach kühlen lässt ist es sehr gut. Den Eisportionierer der dazu geliefert wird kann man sich schenken, billigstes Plastik. Die Maschine läuft sehr ruhig. Was ich schade finde dass es nicht ein einfaches Rezept gibt sowas wie ein Grundrezept dass man gleich mal loslegen kann. Hätte auch einfach mit in der Anleitung stehen können wie bei vielen anderen Küchengeräten. Ansonsten hält das Gerät auf den ersten Blick was es verspricht

The ice machine works very well. Ice cream is still a little soft after the mixing time has elapsed. Think if you let it cool down a bit, it's very good. You can give yourself the ice cream scoop that comes with it, the cheapest plastic. The machine runs very quietly. What I think is a pity is that there isn't a simple recipe, something like a basic recipe that you can get started with right away. Could have just been included in the instructions as with many other kitchen appliances. Otherwise, the device keeps what it promises at first glance

Super tolle Eismaschine. Sehr leise und relativ großer Eisbehälter (reicht für 4 Portionen). Was hilfreich gewesen wäre, sind einige Grundrezepte. Ja ich weiß, im Internet gibt es Rezepte ohne Ende. Allerdings steht dort immer bzgl. der Zubereitungszeit: Beachten Sie die Zeitangaben des Herstellers. In der Gebrauchsanweisung von Klarstein steht aber nur, dass die Zeit von 10 bis 60 Minuten eingestellt werden kann. Also muss man erst mal ausprobieren, welche Eissorte welche Zubereitungszeit benötigt. Etwas mühselig.... Aber hat man den Dreh erst mal raus, steht der Phantasie zur Eisherstellung nichts mehr im Weg. Ungünstig positioiniert finde ich die Öffnung zur Nachbefüllung während des Betriebs der Eismaschine. Es ist eher für Linkshänder geeignet. In einigen Bewertungen habe ich gelesen, dass keine Temperaturanzeige vorhanden sein soll. Vielleicht handelt es sich dabei um eine andere Maschine. Die Sweet Dreams Eismaschine zeigt definitiv im Wechsel die Restzeit und die derzeitige Temperatur im Display an. Alles in Allem bin ich begeistert von der Eismaschine und würde sie jedem weiterempfehlen!

Super great ice machine. Very quiet and relatively large ice cream container (enough for 4 servings). What would have been helpful are some basic recipes. Yes, I know there are endless recipes on the internet. However, there is always the following with regard to the preparation time: Observe the manufacturer's time specifications. The Klarstein instructions for use only state that the time can be set from 10 to 60 minutes. So you first have to try out which type of ice cream requires which preparation time. A bit tedious.... But once you get the hang of it, nothing stands in the way of your imagination for making ice cream. I find the opening for refilling during operation of the ice cream machine to be unfavorably positioned. It is more suitable for left-handers. I read in some reviews that there should be no temperature display. Maybe it's a different machine. The Sweet Dreams ice cream machine definitely alternately shows the remaining time and the current temperature on the display. All in all, I am delighted with the ice cream machine and would recommend it to anyone!

Habe schon verschiedene Eisvarianten ausprobiert. Früchte und Kakao mit Milch, Jogourth und Quark. Habe zuerst als Zuckeraustauschstoff Erythritol nur allein verwendet, Eis war zwar lecker aber steinhart. Erythritol und Traubenzucker je zur Hälfte war bisher die beste Variante. Die Eismaschine ist einfach in der Handhabung und man kann jederzeit noch was dazugeben. Zubereitung dauert etwa 1 Stunde, muss aber beobachtet werden, manchmal hat sich das Rührwerk zum Ende nicht mehr bewegt, weil festgefroren. Zur Haltbarkeit kann noch nichts sagen.

I've tried different types of ice cream. Fruit and cocoa with milk, yoghurt and quark. I first used erythritol alone as a sugar substitute, ice cream was tasty but rock hard. Half of erythritol and half of glucose was previously the best option. The ice cream machine is easy to use and you can always add something. Preparation takes about 1 hour, but you have to watch it, sometimes the agitator has stopped moving at the end because it was frozen. Can't say anything about durability yet.

La verdad es que había leído muy buenas opiniones sobre esta heladera, por eso me decidí a comprarla, pero nunca pensé que funcionara tan bien. La compré para intentar hacer helados bajos en calorías y lo cierto es que con los ingredientes más ligeros (leche desnatada, leche en polvo, yogur desnatado, fruta y poco más) salen unos helados riquísimos. Si los dejas días en el congelador pierden un poco de textura (normal, si no llevan nada de grasa) pero, aún así, son estupendos. Muy contenta con la compra.

The truth is that I had read very good reviews about this ice cream maker, which is why I decided to buy it, but I never thought it would work so well. I bought it to try to make low-calorie ice creams and the truth is that with the lightest ingredients (skimmed milk, powdered milk, skimmed yogurt, fruit and little else) the ice creams come out delicious. If you leave them in the freezer for days they lose a little texture (normal, if they don't have any fat) but, even so, they are great. Very happy with the purchase.

I follow the Slimming world plan, and although my fave yogurts (M'light) now have syns, this still (with a little raw egg white and sweetener, remembering that freezing slightly dulls flavours, so you might want to add extra flavouring) turns it into fab low syn ice cream. You can throw in fruit near the end too. Mmmm...A pot in front of the tv...A heavenly way to spend an evening!

Die Maschine sieht optisch gut aus und macht gutes Eis in ca. 45-55 min. je nachdem wie man sie einstellt. Man kann die Zeit die sie laufen soll in Minuten vorgeben, dann schaltet sie ab. Schaltet aber nach ein paar Minuten von selber auf kühlen, was praktisch ist für den Fall dass man nicht gleich Zeit hat um das Eis raus zu tun. Natürlich ist die Qualität des Eises stark abhängig vom Rezept. Aber die Maschine macht Problemlos ihren Dienst. Bei mir läuft die auch öfter mal 3-4 Mal 50 min. weil ich Eis auf Vorrat mache und dann in den Gefrierschrank gebe. Beim 3. oder 4. Mal kommt es vor, dass der Eisbehälter etwas angefroren ist, da bedarf es etwas Geschick den raus zu holen, aber das denke ich ist zwangsläufig normal wenn der Kompressor so lange läuft und kühlt. Das Eis ist, wenn es fertig ist, schön cremig, aber die Konsistenz ist natürlich abhängig davon, wie lange sie läuft u. vom Rezept. Wenn man das richtige Rezept hat, macht sie ein richtig gutes Eis. Die Lautstärke finde ich ok. Meine Microwelle ist wesentlich lauter. Man kann sich auf jeden Fall noch gut unterhalten

The machine looks good and makes good ice cream in about 45-55 minutes depending on how you set it up. You can specify the time it should run in minutes, then it switches off. But it switches to cool by itself after a few minutes, which is handy if you don't have time to take the ice out right away. Of course, the quality of the ice cream is heavily dependent on the recipe. But the machine does its job without any problems. For me, it often runs 3-4 times for 50 minutes because I make ice cream and then put it in the freezer. The 3rd or 4th time it happens that the ice container is a little frozen, so it takes some skill to get it out, but I think that's inevitably normal when the compressor runs and cools for so long. The ice cream is nice and creamy when it's ready, but of course the consistency depends on how long it is made and the recipe. If you have the right recipe, she makes really good ice cream. I find the volume ok. My microwave is much louder. You can definitely still have a good time

Diese Eismaschine ist gut und stabil verarbeitet und macht optisch ordentlich was her. Sie funktioniert tadellos - es gab tolles Frucht-/Milchspeiseeis. Die Reinigung ist easy und rasch erledigt. War für mich letztlich doch zu klein und ging deshalb zurück. Hinweis: Die beschriebenen 1,2 Liter Fassungsvermögen entsprechen einer Befüllung des Behälters ohne Rührhaken - der ja auch noch Masse verdrängt) bis zum Rand, also kurz vorm Überlaufen. Das ist nicht praxisnah bzw. realistisch! Laut Anleitung soll nur zu 60% befüllt werden, da sich die Masse beim Gefrieren logischerweise noch ausdehnt. Dennoch 4 gute Sterne!

This ice cream machine is well and stably processed and looks good. It works perfectly - they made great fruit/dairy ice cream. Cleaning is quick and easy. It ended up being too small for me so I went back. Note: The 1.2 liter capacity described corresponds to filling the container without a stirring hook - which also displaces mass) to the brim, i.e. just before it overflows. That is not practical or realistic! According to the instructions, it should only be filled up to 60%, since the mass will logically expand when it freezes. Still 4 good stars!

Trovo questa gelatiera ottima. L'ho testata con diverse ricette e ho avuto sempre buoni risultati. Molto interessante è la funzione "keep cool" che mantiene il gelato appena fatto alla temperatura giusta per un'ora, così da poter mangiare il prodotto subito, senza che passi in freezer. Molto utile anche lo sportellino sul coperchio per poter inserire ingredienti anche mentre la macchina è in uso. È vero che il ricettario è molto ridotto, ma non è un problema, visto che il web è pieno di ottime ricette. Ah...e fa anche il frozen yogurt, il mio preferito!

The little door on the lid is also very useful, so you can add ingredients even while the machine is in use.

Je viens de recevoir la machine et en moins de 30 minutes, j'ai obtenu une glace au chocolat, maison faite avec le meilleur chocolat Valrhona et la meilleure crème fraiche. Tout simple il suffit de faire fondre le chocolat avec du lait, de laisser refroidir, inclure la crème et 20 minutes plus tard, la crème glacée au chocolat était prête. Délicieux avec des ingrédients que je contrôle de A à Z. Il me reste maintenant à faire des sorbets et des glaces à base d’œufs. Le compresseur fait du bruit et je l'ai laissé travailler tranquillement dans la cuisine. L'appareil se met alors automatiquement pour rester en froid pendant une heure. Après la machine se met en sommeil.Le problème est que de la glace cristallise sur les parois de la cuve et empêche de retirer toute la glace. Au centre de la cuve la glace est parfaite. Il est préférable d'enlever la glace tout de suite après sa réalisation et de le mettre au freezer ou de la manger!

Very simple just melt the chocolate with milk, let it cool, include the cream and 20 minutes later the chocolate ice cream was ready. Delicious with ingredients that I control from A to Z. Now I have to make egg-based sorbets and ice creams. The compressor makes noise and I let it work quietly in the kitchen. The device then automatically switches to stay cold for one hour. After the machine goes to sleep. The problem is that ice crystallizes on the walls of the tank and prevents removing all the ice. In the center of the tank, the ice cream is perfect. It is best to remove the ice cream immediately after making it and put it in the freezer or eat it!

WOW! I never really have liked those brought ice creams, but I love sampling handmade ices. I saw this and having an ice machine made by Klarstein I knew the build quality would be exceptional. So my order went in straight away. The machine is so easy to use. I wanted to try it out at once when it arrived. In my fridge were a few tubs of yogurt so I just threw them in, switched on at the plug, pressed the "play" symbol and did something else for an hour. When I returned my first homemade frozen delight was ready. It tasted wonderful and so much better that just eating it from the yogurt pot at fridge temperature. Since then I have made a stunning lemon, lime and raspberry sorbet with all fresh organic ingredients. It is easy to clean with most parts just needing warm soapy handwashing and a quick rinse before it is ready to make the next batch. It makes enough to serve four people adequately and the fresh ices can be stored in tubs in the freezer if not required at once. Whilst the machine will keep the contents cold after the freezing process has finished I found they soften significantly when left for any real length of time, best to tub it and put in the proper freezer to avoid wasting the marvelous creations this machine can produce. It is large. You will need counter top space for this item. It is similar in size to a breadmaker or a small microwave oven. That said it is beautiful to look at, with blue illumination of the time left screen and sleek curved brushed stainless steel body. I find it inspirational, just seeing it triggers thoughts of what new tastes I can try out for my next chilled delicacy. I would recommend most highly.

J’aime beaucoup faire des glaces et des sorbets en toute saison pour la plus grande satisfaction de mes invités et de mes petits-enfants. Je n’irai pas jusqu’à dire que cette turbine à glace est la reine des neiges mais c’est la reine des textures. Ce qui est certains c’est que grâce à elle je suis libérée de la corvée de mettre la cuve de mon ancienne sorbetière au congélateur 48 Heures avant l’emploi. Je peux aussi faire plusieurs parfums le même jour car après un nettoyage très rapide, la machine est à nouveau prête à l’emploi. Je suis aussi délivrée de l’obligation de surveiller la machine puisque celle-ci dispose d’une minuterie et garde au froid pendant une heure. Ce que j’apprécie le plus c’est surtout le fait qu’avec un peu d’habitude, je vais connaître le temps nécessaire pour chacune de mes préparations et je pourrai donc lancer la machine juste avant de servir mon dessert avec une texture parfaite puisque la température de conservation est idéale. C’est particulièrement utile pour les sorbets qui ont tendance à durcir lorsqu’on les place au congélateur avant de les consommer. Autre avantage, la machine est beaucoup plus silencieuse que ma sorbetière. Elle est fournie avec une palette à glace en plastique muni d’un dispositif d’extraction de la boule qui ne fonctionne pas trop mal. On reçoit aussi un mode d’emploi en Anglais et Allemand qui contient quelques recettes de base. L’utilisation est simplissime, il suffit de placer les ingrédients avec de l’eau tiède dans la cuve, celle-ci est amovible pour faciliter le remplissage et le nettoyage. Personnellement, je prépare toujours une crème anglaise comme base de mes crèmes glacées dans laquelle j’ajoute, café, fruits et autre ingrédients mais maintenant je peux l’utiliser chaude (en veillant à ne pas cuire les fruits) alors qu’avant je devais la faire refroidir au réfrigérateur une nuit avant de la turbiner à la sorbetière. Une fois que tout est en place y compris l’hélice, il suffit de brancher la machine, l’allumer et régler la minuterie au moyen du bouton rotatif. On appuie sur START et c’est parti. Le couvercle est équipé d’une ouverture qui permet d’ajouter des ingrédients (pépites de chocolat, zestes de fruits etc…) en fin de cycle. En cas de blocage, lorsqu’on a surestimé le temps de préparation et que la crème devient trop dure, la machine s’arrête automatiquement. Pour mon premier essai, j’ai fait une crème au café que j’ai versée un peu chaude dans la cuve. La machine n’a pas bronché mais il lui a fallu 70 minutes pour refroidir le mélange et l’amener à la bonne texture. La prochaine fois, je laisserai refroidir un peu avant. La machine ne prend pas trop de place mais elle est particulièrement lourde (10 Kg). Il faut donc être prudente pour la déplacer mais, sous la machine, deux emplacements pour les mains facilitent l’opération. Il va de soi que j’adapterai éventuellement ce commentaire au fur et à mesure de mes prochaines préparations.

I really like to make ice cream and sorbets in any season for the greatest satisfaction of my guests and my grandchildren. I won't go so far as to say that this ice cream maker is the queen of snow, but it is the queen of textures. What is certain is that thanks to it I am freed from the chore of putting the bowl of my old ice cream maker in the freezer 48 hours before use. I can also make several flavors on the same day because after a very quick cleaning the machine is ready to use again. I am also freed from the obligation to monitor the machine since it has a timer and keeps it cold for an hour. What I appreciate the most is above all the fact that with a little practice, I will know the time needed for each of my preparations and I will therefore be able to start the machine just before serving my dessert with a perfect texture. since the storage temperature is ideal. This is particularly useful for sorbets which tend to harden when placed in the freezer before consumption. Another advantage, the machine is much quieter than my ice cream maker. It comes with a plastic ice cream paddle fitted with a ball extraction device that does not work too badly. We also receive a user manual in English and German which contains some basic recipes. The use is very simple, it is enough to place the ingredients with lukewarm water in the tank, this one is removable to facilitate the filling and the cleaning. Personally, I always prepare a custard as a base for my ice creams in which I add coffee, fruit and other ingredients but now I can use it hot (being careful not to cook the fruit) whereas before I had to Chill it in the refrigerator overnight before chucking it in the ice cream maker. Once everything is in place including the propeller, just plug the machine in, turn it on and set the timer using the rotary knob. We press START and off we go. The lid is equipped with an opening which allows you to add ingredients (chocolate chips, fruit zest, etc.) at the end of the cycle. In the event of a blockage, when the preparation time has been overestimated and the cream becomes too hard, the machine stops automatically. For my first try, I made a coffee cream that I poured a little hot into the tank. The machine didn't flinch but it took 70 minutes to cool the mixture and bring it to the right texture. Next time I'll let it cool down a bit. The machine does not take up too much space but it is particularly heavy (10 Kg). It is therefore necessary to be careful to move it but, under the machine, two places for the hands facilitate the operation. It goes without saying that I will eventually adapt this commentary as my next preparations progress.

optisch ganz schön,läßt sich gut reinigen,wie beschrieben ist so eine Eismaschine groß und schwer. Lautstärke OK,nicht leise aber ein Mixer macht lauterer Geräusche,finde ich nicht schlimm. Das Eis selbst, tja.. man muss schon ein tolles Rezept finden und sich an die Zubereitungszeit rantasten. Ein paar Rezepte sind dabei,ich fand diese nicht so toll. Das Schokoeis schmeckte wie gekühlte Nutella,lecker aber hat nichts mit Eis zu tun. Behälter 1,2L,das heißt aber nicht, daß man so viel Eis hat. Man darf es nur umgerechnet mit MAXIMAL 720ml Flüssigkeit befüllen,sonst läuft es über; eher weniger. Hört sich nach viel an. Etwa für 4Personen.Von der Konsistenz habe ich mir mehr versprochen,wie in der Eisdiele wird es nicht(das war klar), eher weicher. Es wird nicht einheitlich. Durch den durchsichtigen Deckel kann man die Konsistenz beobachten und auch probieren(durch die kleine Öffnung,vorher Pause drücken).Leider ist die Konsistenz oben immer viel weicher als unten.Mann kann sehen,daß an den Rändern schon einfriert und oben noch weich ist.Wenn man die Zeit verlängert,kann passieren,daß unten,an den Rändern und am Drehmesser alles so einfriert,daß man kaum das Drehmesser rausnehmen kann und alles rauskratzen muss,obwohl es oben noch weich ist. Durch die kleine Öffnung kann man später noch Zutaten einfügen,nur leider werden diese nicht mehr richtig vermischt,sie bleiben oben,weil das Eis unten und an den Seiten schon fest ist. Es bleibt viel Eis am Drehmesser.Bis jetzt habe ich kein Rezept gefunden,daß erlaubt daß man aus der Masse schöne Kugeln formen kann.Der mitgelieferte Eislöffel ist nicht zu gebrauchen,da er viel zu groß ist um aus dem Tank das Eis zu entnehmen.Das Drehmesser nimmt schon viel Platz ein.Passen würde eher so ein kleiner "Kaffeepulverlöffel" Das selbstgemachte Eis schmeckt schon lecker,und man weiß was drinn ist.Man kann das Eis einfrieren,am besten nicht zu lange,dann hat man schöne Konsistenz um Kugeln zu formen(das ist aber Rezeptabhängig). Ein Vanilleeis wird perfekt,bei Obsteis(wird beim einfieren sehr fest) muss man ca.15 Min auftauen,da die Emulgatoren fehlen. Das gute ist man kann mehrmals am Tag Eis zubereiten,aber immer eine Pause dazwischen einlegen,damit es nicht überhitzt. Kühlt noch eine Stunde nach der Zubereitung. Von mir ausprobierte Rezepte waren alle ohne Ei. Mit wird es evtl.anders. Die Maschine darf nicht über 45° geneigt werden,das sollte für die Lieferanten groß auf der Verpackung stehen.

optically quite nice, easy to clean, as described, such an ice machine is large and heavy. Volume OK, not quiet but a mixer makes louder noises, I don't think it's bad. The ice cream itself, well.. you have to find a great recipe and approach the preparation time. There are a few recipes that I didn't really like. The chocolate ice cream tasted like chilled Nutella, delicious but has nothing to do with ice cream. Container 1.2L, but that doesn't mean that you have that much ice. You can only fill it with the equivalent of MAXIMUM 720ml of liquid, otherwise it will overflow; rather less. Sounds like a lot. For about 4 people. I expected more from the consistency, it won't be like in the ice cream parlor (that was clear), rather softer. It won't be uniform. You can observe and taste the consistency through the transparent lid (through the small opening, press pause beforehand). Unfortunately, the consistency at the top is always much softer than at the bottom. You can see that the edges are already freezing and the top is still soft. If you extend the time, it can happen that the bottom, the edges and the rotary knife freeze so much that you can hardly take the rotary knife out and have to scrape everything out, even though it's still soft on top. You can add ingredients later through the small opening, but unfortunately these are no longer mixed properly, they stay on top because the ice cream is already firm at the bottom and on the sides. A lot of ice remains on the rotary knife. So far I haven't found a recipe that allows you to form nice balls from the mass. The ice cream spoon that comes with it is useless because it's much too big to take the ice out of the tank. The rotary knife takes up a lot of space. A small "coffee powder spoon" would be more suitable. The homemade ice cream tastes delicious, and you know what's inside. You can freeze the ice cream, preferably not too long, then you have a nice consistency around balls to form (but that depends on the recipe). A vanilla ice cream is perfect, with fruit ice cream (becomes very firm when freezing) you have to thaw for about 15 minutes because the emulsifiers are missing. The good thing is you can prepare ice cream several times a day, but always take a break in between so that it doesn't overheat. Refrigerate for an hour after preparation. Recipes I have tried have all been eggless. With it might be different. The machine must not be tilted more than 45°, this should be written in large letters on the packaging for the suppliers.

Questa gelatiera in acciaio inox spazzolato è un gioiello sia come oggetto di cucina sia a livello funzionale e qualitativo. Nella confezione, oltre all’apparecchio, c’è un manualetto in inglese e tedesco che contiene anche 4-5 ricette per fare il gelato o i sorbetti, e un pratico cucchiaio-dosatore in plastica con un meccanismo sbloccante per far staccare la pallina di gelato dal fondo. Oltre al corpo centrale dove c’è il motore, nell’alloggiamento dove vanno inseriti gli ingredienti è incastonato un cestello in acciaio inox, molto bello, ricorda quelli per lo champagne, e il mescolatore in plastica bianca. La protezione trasparente superiore ha anche una porticina sollevabile se uno volesse aggiungere altri ingredienti durante la preparazione. Facilissima da usare, si attacca la gelatiera alla corrente e si impostano i minuti con una manopola sulla parte superiore dell’apparecchio, accanto alla quale ci sono due soli tasti, l’On/Off e lo start/pause per far partire effettivamente il processo di preparazione del gelato, per il quale si è rivelato un tempo ottimale impostare 40-45 minuti (ho fatto due prove, gelato al fior di latte e alla vaniglia con succo di limone). Nel libretto di istruzioni si raccomanda di non riempire il cestello oltre il 60% della sua effettiva capienza, perché ovviamente il gelato monterà e se il liquido iniziale fosse troppo, il gelato rischierebbe di “sfondare” e andare a sporcare la protezione in plastica, oltre ovviamente ad affaticare inutilmente la macchina. Una volta finito, il cestello ha la capacità di mantenere il gelato freddo per tutta l’ora successiva, cosa che trovo molto utile, con questo caldo il gelato rischierebbe di sciogliersi nei primi minuti. Altra cosa buona di questo apparecchio è che le cose da lavare sono poche, il cestello, il mescolatore in plastica e la protezione trasparente. Basta. Il gelato prodotto non si può ovviamente pretendere che sia uguale a quello che compriamo nelle gelaterie, rimane leggermente più granuloso rispetto a esso, ma è buonissimo e la cosa fantastica è che si possono fare un sacco di esperimenti, per prepararlo bastano 40 minuti. Nel complesso consiglio questa gelatiera a occhi chiusi. Sarà una benedizione con l'estate torrida che sta per arrivare.

This brushed stainless steel ice cream maker is a jewel both as a kitchen object and in terms of function and quality. In the package, in addition to the appliance, there is a manual in English and German which also contains 4-5 recipes for making ice cream or sorbets, and a practical plastic measuring spoon with a release mechanism to release the scoop of ice cream from the bottom. In addition to the central body where the motor is, the housing where the ingredients are to be inserted is set with a very nice stainless steel basket, reminiscent of those for champagne, and a white plastic mixer. The upper transparent protection also has a liftable door if one wants to add other ingredients during preparation. Very easy to use, connect the ice cream maker to the current and set the minutes with a knob on the top of the appliance, next to which there are only two buttons, the On/Off and the start/pause to actually start the process of ice cream preparation, for which it turned out to be an optimal time to set 40-45 minutes (I did two tests, fior di latte and vanilla ice cream with lemon juice). In the instruction booklet it is recommended not to fill the basket more than 60% of its effective capacity, because obviously the ice cream will froth and if the initial liquid were too much, the ice cream would risk "breaking through" and dirtying the plastic protection, as well obviously to tire the car unnecessarily. Once finished, the basket has the ability to keep the ice cream cold for the next hour, which I find very useful, with this heat the ice cream would risk melting in the first few minutes. Another good thing about this appliance is that there are few things to wash, the basket, the plastic mixer and the transparent protection. Enough. Obviously, the ice cream produced cannot be expected to be the same as the one we buy in ice cream parlors, it remains slightly grainier than it, but it is very good and the fantastic thing is that you can do a lot of experiments, 40 minutes are enough to prepare it. Overall I recommend this ice cream maker with my eyes closed. It will be a blessing with the scorching summer to come.
