Let's Make Ice Cream ..., July 4, 2009
This review is from: Cuisinart ICE-25BC Classic Frozen-Yogurt, Ice-Cream, and Sorbet Maker, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)
Length:: 1:34 Mins
I thought I'd document our first try in using the ice cream maker with this little video. I used the included recipe to make our first batch (and included instructions on the video). It was WONDERFUL.
The directions say to "freeze it for 2 hours" when you are done mixing it in the ice cream maker, if you want it firmer, but we found it perfect just out of the maker.
I have used regular "ice based" makers, and this one is about 50% of the noise of the one I was using. PLUS, it did not melt all over everything, or require the purchase of ice or salt.
Things to make sure it works:
Make sure the inside is solidly frozen
Chill your ingredients
Turn it on before you pour them in.
As I ended my video - "It's as easy as it says!"
* Some people have expressed a concern about it only being 1 1/2 quarts - but on lower fat recipes, I'm not always as happy with ice cream/milk that has sat in the freezer for awhile, so I find this the perfect size. We use 1 cup servings, and this makes 6 servings.

Good Product for the Price, September 30, 2007
This review is from: Cuisinart ICE-25BC Classic Frozen-Yogurt, Ice-Cream, and Sorbet Maker, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)
So far I'm satisfied with this product. It produces very good results in about 20 - 30 minutes. Easy clean up, easy to use. For people that think this product is loud, they must not have ever used a machine that uses ice. Overall, it's a very good purchase for the money. The only way I would give 5 stars is if something exceeded my expectations. So that's why I give it only 4.

This is great., October 26, 2008
This review is from: Cuisinart ICE-25BC Classic Frozen-Yogurt, Ice-Cream, and Sorbet Maker, Brushed Chrome (Kitchen)
This is my first ice cream maker, so was not sure what to expect. I'm on a special diet and cannot have sugar products and store bought sugar free ice cream isn't all that great, so I'd thought I'd do it at home myself. It works very nicely. You freeze the "bowl" for several hours first, then add ice cream recipe mixture, let churn/freeze, then eat. Took about 20 minutes to have it ready to eat. I'm very happy with the product.
