What is the Vanilla ICMS-C15?
The Vanilla ICMS-C15 is a fully automatic ice cream maker with a built-in compressor.
A built-in compressor means the ice cream maker cools the ice cream mixture itself during preparation. You therefore don't need to pre-freeze any cooling bowl or freezer bowl before use. The machine has a capacity of 1.5 liters, suitable for making ice cream, sorbet and other frozen desserts.
How long does it take to make ice cream?
Preparation time for ice cream varies depending on the recipe and ingredients.
In most cases, the ice cream is ready after approximately:
30/45 minutes
It's not unusual for the ice cream to be finished before the maximum program time shown on the display.
Factors affecting preparation time:
How cold the ice cream mixture is to begin with
Which recipe is used
Fat and sugar content in the ingredients
The amount of ice cream mixture used
Why does the stirrer stop after about 30 minutes?
The stirrer stopping after about 30 minutes is often a sign that the ice cream is starting to become ready. As the ice cream mixture gets colder and firmer, the resistance in the mixture increases. When the resistance becomes high enough, the stirrer stops and the machine instead switches to freezing to finish the ice cream.
When this happens, you can:
Remove the ice cream right away and serve it
Transfer the ice cream to a separate container and freeze it further
Let the ice cream sit for a while in the machine's freeze function for a firmer consistency
The result varies depending on the recipe and desired consistency.
How many revolutions per minute does the stirrer have?
The stirrer's speed is measured in RPM, which stands for revolutions per minute.
The Vanilla ICMS-C15 has a stirrer speed of:
54.5 RPM
This speed is designed to provide even freezing and a creamy consistency for the ice cream.
