DASH My Pint Ice Cream Maker Machine (Aqua): Multi-Purpose Soft Serve Ice Cream Machine for Homemade Gelato, Sorbet, Frozen Yogurt, Includes Mixing Spoon, Easy to Clean and Store

I bought two of these, one as a gift. One fused, the other didn’t turn and I can’t return them due to their refund policy. Don’t buy.

Item arrived and didn’t work. Seller can’t be contacted to return item and Amazon say need to contact seller. Overall waste of money. Broken Ice cream machine. Sad child who chose as a reward. Very disappointed.

Premium ice cream is so expensive. Now I can make my own, without any chemicals, for a decent price and it tastes like the best ice cream I can buy. Easy to use. Great results. Recommend.

Me encantó para hacer una porción de helado de yogurt. Lo que mas me gusta es que se puede comer del recipiente y no se derrite ya que lo mantiene frío.

I have the Cuisinart ice cream maker but for some reason I don't use it very much. When I saw these I thought oh I'll get two and if more people are here I can make more and if it's just me and I don't want to pig out I can make less. So far that theory is working out well. I follow the directions exactly, making sure to chill the cup well and to have my ingredients well chilled also. They say that it runs for 20 minutes but I think that you can take the ice cream out in half that time, that's just the time it takes before it warms up too much. One thing that I didn't pay attention to in the instructions, which made me think it was broken for a few minutes there, is that you switch it on and then put the dasher/motor on top of the ice cream cup part. If you try to put it on and then start it, it doesn't start. Also it says to let the ice cream chill before serving. But then I had a really hard time getting it out. This was several hours later. So what I do now is as soon as it's done, use the plastic spoon and scoop the ice cream quickly into an already chilled lidded container and stick it in the freezer. Best if you spoon it in lightly do it doesn't freeze into a solid block. I've so far made frozen lemon ice with fresh thyme and lemon zest and a bit of white wine, and a kind of frozen puree of ripe peach and nectarine. And I did leave chunks of fruit, and it turned out very well. I suggest you look up proportion of light corn syrup to sugar. The ratio matters. I went with about three parts syrup to one part sugar. I just zap sugar and water in the 'wave for a few seconds, add the corn syrup, use what I need and put the rest in the fridge.

yo vivo en lugar caliente y aquí no funciona

Instead of buying a very popular ice cream maker with a big footprint and an even bigger price, I opted to get this Dash freezer. I was hesitant to get this appliance because I eat a vegan diet and I have diabetes which means I have to watch everything I eat. Ever since being diagnosed with diabetes, I eat only healthy homemade food and wasn't sure if eating homemade ice cream would work for me. Also, I already have a larger ice cream maker I no longer use because of my health condition. I love ice cream but only eat a couple of spoonfuls once a year on my birthday. I was pleasantly surprised how much I love this little machine because I can make delicious non-dairy frozen treats without all the calories and fat. Since it arrived earlier this week, I have made 3 kinds of frozen yogurt from my homemade non-dairy yogurt in chocolate, coffee with chocolate chips and mixed berry flavors. Since using up all the yogurt, I make a new non-dairy flavor ice cream almost every day and so far have enjoyed maple walnut, pumpkin pecan and peanut butter which have turned out fantastic (see photo of maple walnut). I get 2 servings out of every batch...one-half to eat now and I freeze the other half in a small container for another day. The Dash Electric Ice Cream Maker is the perfect size for 1-2 people, is great if you are on a special diet or just want to limit special treats. The only negative is that the electric lid does not securely fasten to the freezer container and most of the time you have to hold it down with your hand while making the ice cream, especially when the mixture is very cold. A better design would be to have a screw-on secure lid so it wouldn't move around while processing. I am very happy with my purchase of this Dash ice cream maker and have many more flavors in mind to try before I run out of ideas. Now I can eat ice cream more often instead of only on my birthday!
