Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker

   THis was a pretty good ice cream maker, it was nice in that the compressor was part of the machine, it was rather heavy and loud and the mixer does not scrape the sides very well. The other problem I encountered was the quality of the container. When the mixture is frozen the container is difficult to release from the well and the handle is so flimzy that it comes unattached making it very difficult to remove the container of ice cream until it has warmed slightly and released.

   We ordered the Cuisinart ICE-50BC ice-cream maker after buying all other types. We started with the hand crank years and years ago, graduated to the electric bucket type, then the small ones that required pre-cooling with limited amounts of ice. Later we bought the fancy Cuisinart dual ice cream maker that required a pre-frozen container and cold ingredients. They were all a hassle. Now we have this wonderfully easy machine. You are not suppose to use warm ingredients but having some prechilled milk or sugar water is good enough. We've tossed just about everything in, from chocolate almond milk with mashed bananas to serinam cherries with egg fruit. We are all frozen dessert lovers and having a different flavor every night is great fun. My only (minor) complaints are that it is noisy (don't use it next to the table if you want to talk during dinner) and that we could easily use two containers because one container of great ice-cream dissapears too quickly. One more note was that the service and delivery time was excellent! Very fast and without any problems. Cuisinart ICE-50BC Supreme Ice Cream Maker

   I have been using ice cream makers at home for over thirty years. Here is why I like this machine. It's fast. I can think of a probiotic, frozen yogurt or fruit recipe and try it out. No waiting just go. Serve it it up and see what is the response.
