More tasty tips
Here are a few more nuggets on how to get the most out of your frozen treats:
- If your freezer is set to a very cold temperature, the ice cream may look crumbly. If this occurs, select RE-SPIN to process the mixture a little more until smooth prior to dispensing.
- If you would like your milkshake thinner, add 1–2 tablespoons of milk and select RE-SPIN. Process until desired texture is achieved.
- Make any recipe vegan by using vegan ice cream for ice cream and oat milk or vegan creamer for whole milk.
- Prep several pints at once for best efficiency and then use the CREAMIFY feature whenever a craving strikes.
