Cuisinart Soft Serve Ice Cream Makers
The cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker is a great ice cream machine. I’ve used this machine for over three years now and “supremely” satisfied with the results. Cuisinart soft serve ice cream makers are some of the best ice cream machines out there in terms of features and quality.
You don’t need to pre-freeze anything with this machine, add salt, churn, or anything troublesome. You simply create a good ice cream mixture and add it to the machine. In less than an hour you have wonderful homemade soft serve ice-cream. Keep in mind for the best results you are going to want to put the ice cream in the freezer for an hour or two to give it better consistency. Don’t leave the ice cream in the machine too long, however – it will over freeze and unwanted crystals will form in the ice
Just a warning, this machine is pretty heavy. If you are expecting something that weights as little as blender, you are going to be disappointed. The machine also makes a lot of noise. So if you hate noise and/or have problems lifting anything heavy, this soft serve ice cream maker might not be something you want to look at g getting.
If you want a fantastic set it and forget it ice cream machine that contains a compressor and requires no brainwork whatsoever, then this is the perfect ice cream maker for you.
I ordered online and it was busted when I got it. It made rattling sounds when I turned it on and didn’t get cold at all. However, I blame this on the shipping company, not the brand. I exchanged it for another and have had no problems whatsoever the past three years.
So overall, I am quite impressed with the quality of this ice cream maker. As ice cream makers go, it’s actually a pretty good deal, clocking in around 200 bucks. I’ve seen some models that go for around $500 bucks, but I’m not convinced they can deliver anything this model can’t. Don’t bother getting a cheapie ice cream machine, however. I paid 110 bucks for my very first one and the ice cream it produced was always subpar. Trust me on this – the quality of your ice cream maker will determine how good the ice cream tastes. So don’t waste your time on the entry level ice cream machines, it’s simply not worth it.
