Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Cuisinart ICE-30BC Pure Indulgence 2-Quart Automatic Frozen Yogurt, Sorbet, and Ice Cream Maker

Customer Review: Spectacular Ice Cream
Summary: 5 Stars

[...]. I generally find Cuisinart quality to be low; Kitchen Aid makes much higher quality gear. But this is a winner and tremendously good value!

I have now made 2 batches cinnamon rum ice cream from a BonAppetit recipe, and it is spectacular [try it with apple pie or apple tart!]. I live in Scottsdale and made it on a day when it was 99*. After 35 minutes [recommended] of processing, it was very thick, and after 4 more hours in a 0* freezer it was hard as a rock.

Here are some tips with folks who have had trouble:

Don't follow the methodology in the Cuisinart book that comes with the machine. Follow the BonAppetit method. I've copied the recipe below for reference.

Make sure your freezer is at least 0* on the shelf where upon will freeze the bowl and place the ice cream to set.

Place the bowl in which you place the cream, and into which you then strain the custard, in the freezer for at least an hour; take it out just before you use it

After mixing the strained custard and cream, chill it for at least two hours in the fridge before making the ice cream

Process in the Cuisinart for the full 35 minutes; make sure the processing spot is cool - turn up the A/C if necessary!

After turning the processed ice cream in the container in which you will freeze it, put saran wrap on the surface of the ice cream; this will prevent any crystals. Seal it tightly with the Tupperware/container top and freeze at 0* until hard.

Lastly - this is ICE CREAM, after all, so calories be damned. In the second batch, I used half-and-half instead of whole milk. Wow! Really, really good.

* 6 large egg yolks
* 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream, divided
* 1 1/2 cups whole milk [or Half-and Half]
* 3/4 cup sugar
* Pinch of salt
* 2 tablespoons dark rum
* 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
* 1 Tablespoon vanilla extract

Preparation

Whisk egg yolks to blend in medium metal bowl. Pour 1 cup cream into another medium bowl; set fine strainer over bowl with cream. Whisk milk, sugar, pinch of salt, and 1/2 cup cream in heavy medium saucepan; bring to simmer, stirring until sugar dissolves. Gradually whisk hot milk mixture into egg yolks. Return mixture to same saucepan and stir constantly over medium-low heat until custard thickens slightly and instant-read thermometer inserted into custard registers 160?F to 170?F (do not boil), about 5 minutes. Pour custard through strainer set over bowl with cream. Whisk mixture to blend; then whisk in rum and cinnamon. Chill custard until cold, about 2 hours.

Process custard in ice cream maker according to manufacturer's instructions. Transfer ice cream to container. Cover; freeze until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight.
