Best Ice Cream Maker

TL;DR The best ice cream maker depends on your needs, but popular choices include the Cuisinart ICE-100 for its compressor feature and ease of use, and the KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker attachment for those who already own a KitchenAid mixer.

Popular Models

When it comes to choosing an ice cream maker, several models stand out due to their features and user satisfaction. The Cuisinart ICE-100 is frequently recommended for its built-in compressor, which allows continuous batch making without pre-freezing [5:2]. Another option is the KitchenAid Ice Cream Maker attachment, ideal for those who already have a KitchenAid mixer, offering convenience and saving space [5:4].

Considerations for Choosing

Choosing the right ice cream maker involves considering factors such as capacity, ease of cleaning, and whether you prefer a manual or automatic model. Compressor models like the Cuisinart ICE-100 are more convenient for frequent use, while manual models might be suitable for occasional users who enjoy the hands-on process [5:3].

Unique Features

Some ice cream makers offer unique features that can enhance the ice cream-making experience. For example, certain models come with multiple paddles for different textures or settings for gelato versus ice cream [5:1]. These features can be particularly appealing for those looking to experiment with different types of frozen desserts.

Budget and Space Constraints

Budget and space are important considerations when selecting an ice cream maker. While compressor models tend to be more expensive, they offer greater convenience and efficiency. Manual models or attachments like the KitchenAid option are generally more affordable and compact, making them suitable for smaller kitchens or those on a budget [5:6].

In summary, the best ice cream maker will depend on your specific needs, including frequency of use, budget, and available kitchen space. Consider these factors along with the features offered by various models to make an informed decision.

I’ve also read that the killing of Japanese POWs was so widespread that they had to offer ice cream and three/four day passes as an incentive for not immediately murdering captured enemy soldiers

GeneralBid7234 · 1 day ago

Yeah, the American military definitely had a problem getting US Marines, sailors, and soldiers to not murder wounded and surrendered Japanese folks. That was definitely a well documented problem.

Relatedly getting those same people to treat the remains of Japanese service members with respect was at least as much as a problem. Teeth, ears, skulls, gold fillings, fingers, and other bits were removed from the dead (and sometimes the living) for souvenirs.

My ice maker only makes ice when I put store bought ice in bin

Posted by BeMadTV · in r/HomeMaintenance · 2 days ago

All of that is store bought ice. And now I actually hear my ice maker going. The last time it stopped making ice I bought ice and boom, it added ice to the top of the pile. I assumed it was because I turned off the water and turned it back on and it cleared a line or something.

Anyone have any recommendations? I had the arm down when there was no ice in there. I feel like I hear it pumping now.

I have this same ice maker. You can also just push the arm the side closest to the switch and let it hang. It will make ice forever so you have to watch it and remember to shut it off. Ask me how I know lol!

BeMadTV · OP · 2 days ago

Thanks! Just to clarify, I need it up for it to want to fill? I had always assumed ice in the bin held it up and it would then think it was full. But now I'm having a Mandela Effect moment lol

I've had this fridge for three years and only got these problems after renovations to the upstairs bathroom so I thought it was related.

But I'll dump the bag ice from the store out of the bin and then flip the hook up.

Edit: A piece of ice was pinning it down and it's slowly rising. But it didn't go to rise when the bin was totally empty.

Thanks.

The ice filled from the maker should eventually push that little bar up. When the bar is up it signals the ice maker to stop filling and making ice.

MoeSzyslakMonobrow · 2 days ago

When the arm is down, it should be making ice. When ice is ready to dump, arm comes up, ice dumps. If the arm can lower itself all the way back down, it makes more ice. It if stops midway, it doesn't make ice until arm can drop all the way again

Ah...I think it's malfunctioning then. It only dumps ice when I've put bagged ice in there. As if it's responding to a threat. I'll have it replaced. Doesn't seem like a water issue. Thanks.

awsomeX5triker · 2 days ago

May not need to replace it. You’ve found that there is a trigger to get it to make more ice. If you can find a way to recreate the arm position your store bought ice is creating then you should be able to get it to make ice.

Without looking at it in detail, I’m guessing a wad of tape under the arm preventing the arm from going too low will do the trick.

Or maybe the store ice is pushing it down further, in which case you might be able to fix it by attaching a weight to the bar so it goes all the way down when empty.

It's possible some ice/etc prevented it from fully going down or making sensor contact and when you dumped in new ice it jiggled the issue out

THIS HAPPENED TO ME! Nobody could explain it. It's like the maker gets distracted and it forgot what it's supposed to do, so you have to put some ice in front of it as a reminder.

Flashy-Ad1404 · 2 days ago

Mine did this ages ago. Trying to remember but think I lost patience with it, lifted the whole unit out of the freezer, and replaced the motor; I can't remember why it seemed to work when there was ice, something to do with the sensor malfunctioning as the motor was affecting it. Took about an hour to fix, really and has worked fine since.

Sorry about that - I saw in another comment that you aren’t near HEB/Blue Bell territory. This specific cheesecake was a limited release flavor, to my great dismay.

The root beer float is pretty tasty! You know how towards the end of a root beer float, it is more creamy & less carbonated? That is exactly what this flavor tastes like.

best ice cream maker

Key Considerations for Choosing an Ice Cream Maker:

  1. Type of Ice Cream Maker:

    • Manual vs. Electric: Electric models are more convenient and require less effort, while manual models can be fun for hands-on experiences.
    • Compressor vs. Bowl: Compressor models freeze the mixture on their own, while bowl models need pre-freezing of the bowl, which can take up space in your freezer.
  2. Capacity: Consider how much ice cream you want to make at once. Most home ice cream makers range from 1.5 to 2 quarts, which is suitable for small to medium batches.

  3. Ease of Use: Look for features like simple controls, easy assembly, and straightforward cleaning processes. Some models have automatic settings that simplify the process.

  4. Versatility: Some ice cream makers can also make sorbet, frozen yogurt, or gelato. If you want to experiment with different frozen treats, choose a versatile model.

  5. Price: Ice cream makers can range from budget-friendly options ($30-$50) to high-end models ($200+). Determine your budget and how often you plan to use it.

Recommendations:

  • Cuisinart ICE-30BC: This is a highly-rated, budget-friendly electric ice cream maker with a 2-quart capacity. It has a simple design, easy to use, and produces smooth ice cream in about 20-30 minutes.

  • Breville BCI600XL Smart Scoop: If you're looking for a premium option, this compressor model offers a range of textures and flavors, with a built-in cooling system that allows you to make ice cream continuously. It also has an intuitive LCD display.

  • Nostalgia ICMP400BLUE: For a fun, retro-style option, this manual ice cream maker is great for families and gatherings. It’s easy to use and can make up to 4 quarts of ice cream.

Choosing the right ice cream maker depends on your preferences for convenience, capacity, and budget. If you plan to make ice cream frequently, investing in a higher-quality model may be worthwhile.
