I bought one of those tabletop icecream makers (it says iceman on the side) and put milk, eggs, and sugar into it. After running for 30 minutes it still just has milk, eggs, and sugar in it (still liquid.) What did I do wrong?
Is the machine plugged in and running? Are the contents below freezing? Take a thermometer and measure how cold the ice cream slop is.
>>22155952It has a built in compressor (it even has one of those explosion warning stickers because it's a hydrocarbon refrigerant.) I assumed that meant I could just dump in room temperature stuff.
>>22155945Their recipe book suggests it should only take 30 to 40 minutes from starting until it’s soft serve consistency, might be a dud machine
>>22155966Maybe I should try doing a batch with just milk and nothing else to make sure the sugur/eggs aren't bringing the freezing point down too low.
>>22155954Did you consider reading the instructions you retarded faggot?
>>22155972Huh that didn't work either.>>22156031I did.
>>22156071>I considered reading the instructions>But decided not to be a faggot and to just wing it
>>22155952>Take a thermometer and measure how cold the ice cream slop is.This, it's probably just not cold enough yet and needs more time. Ice cream recipes often tell you to put the bowl for the ice cream maker in the freezer for a while and chill the ingredients too. Not doing those things means it's going to take longer.
>>22156108I don't own a thermometer.
>>22156128you should
>>22155945Idiot
>I bought one of those tabletop icecream makers How much did you pay for it.
>>22156128
bro thought he could make ice cream in 30 minutes...
Alright freezing the ingredients first didn't work either. The compressor definitely works because this last time I forgot to turn it off afterwards and it started running and got very cold. I think it's just bad software. I have a bag of mosfets and some spare MCUs. I might just rip out their control board and make my own.
>>22155945You gotta make them into a custard first, hoss.
>>22156659Kewl
>>22156659that seems like an overly complicated idea for right now. have you tried heating the milk with the eggs to thicken it first? most recipes tell you to do that because egg doesn't really thicken anything until it's heated, i'm not sure if i've ever seen a recipe that tells you to just put everything in without that first
How much cellulose gel or gum did you put in? Add more.
>>22155945So did everything work out friend?
