Review: GET IT! ITS GREAT - This is a great little ice cream maker! Originally I was looking for something that I didnt have to freeze a bowl. Because I didnt want to have to take that extra step. But this came on sale so it was too tempting to pass up! Super simple to use and makes icecream so much faster then the old Nostalgia ones. No leaks, material is nice, easy to use! I gave my freezer bowl about 18 hours in a deep freezer and it worked wonderfully. It also comes with a very nice and detailed recipe book that is super helpful and it was easy to clean up too. Over all great product and made yummy ice cream!
Review: Excellent ice cream machine, know how to take care of it, you will be rewarded. - This is a very good ice cream machine for its class (home use, freezer bowl). I'd owned the 1 1/2 quart Cusinart model and liked it a lot. Then someone in my house put the drum in the dishwasher and I found out when I tried to make a batch of ice cream that wouldn't freeze. Using the 1 1/2 quart model I was always scaling down recipes or hovering over the ice cream as it churned with a spoon, stealing spoonfuls ice cream as it threatened to overflow the ice cream maker because I overfilled it (not that I really minded that). I like the 2 quart size for those reasons, If you've never owned one of these types of ice cream makers before, here's an overview. There are two main parts as far as what makes the ice cream. There is a paddle and a drum, aka the freezer bowl. The night before you intend to make ice cream (or earlier) park your clean freezer bowl in the coldest part of your freezer overnight. This is essential that the bowl be frozen through with no sloshing sound. This drum is what chills the ice cream. When you're ready to make the ice cream, put the frozen freezer bowl into the base of the ice cream machine, put the paddle in and put the top on, start the machine and then pour your cold (repeat COLD) ice cream mixture into the freezer bowl as it runs. The cold of the freezer bowl chills the ice cream mixture, the paddle scraps the sides of the freezer bowl as it turns which scrapes off the freezing ice cream incorporating it back into the ice cream mixture and churns air into the mixture. Let the machine run for 20ish minutes. Give it a peak every once in a while because watched ice cream never freezes ;). When it's done, you'll hear the motor struggle a bit more because of the thickness of the ice cream, the ice cream will be soft serve consistency and will be done as far as its adventure with the machine. From here you could eat it as soft serve, or scoop out the ice cream into a freezer safe container and freeze it for a few hours. let the freezer bowl warm up a little, then wash by hand with warm soapy water and a soft sponge or cloth. The negative comments that people have left seem mostly to be due to them not understanding how this machine works or that they expected something different, or both. Yes, you have to freeze the bowl overnight -- that's how this type of ice cream machine chills ice cream. It doesnt have its own refridgeration unit. If you want that, then pay 5x+ the price for a different type of machine. No, this machine doesn't produce solid hard ice cream -- it produces soft serve consistency because it churns and you can't churn rock solid ice cream. And You MUST WASH THE FREEZER BOWL BY HAND. This isn't a "to keep it looking it's best" issue like you sneak your pots and pans in the dishwasher even though you shouldn't -- the heat from the dishwasher will destroy the freezing liquid in the bowl and the bowl will never make ice cream again. You can tell that a well meaning relative put your bowl in the dishwasher because the bowl will still sound sloshy even though it's been freezing for days. The It Never Froze My Ice Cream comments -- the person either put their freezer bowl in the dishwasher or the bowl wasn't cold enough. Or the freezer bowl was defective. The It Won't Make Ice Cream Immediately, It Makes Soft Serve...comments -- that's true, but that's how this machine works. Some have commented that they have to let the finished ice cream (after being I the freezer) sit on the counter for 15 minutes until they can scoop it. My suggestions are: 1. Use more fat in your recipe, 2. Let it churn more air as the machine runs, 3. Know that most commercial ice creams have a ton of what they call "overhead" which is basically air in the ice cream. You may notice that the same volume of two different brands of ice cream weigh differently. Ultra premium brands like Haagen Daaz have little overhead compared to, say most grocery store brands. Lower quality ice creams also have thickeners and stabilizers that hold the ice cream together but keep it from really forming solid. Ever leave a bowl of ice cream on the counter overnight and the next day it's a little melted but mostly in the same shape? That's the stabilizers. All of this makes commercial ice cream soft and easy to scoop even though it's frozen. Take heart that better quality ice creams like the one you are making are naturally harder when frozen, and therefore may take a sturdy ice cream scoop and perhaps a little muscle to scoop. On properly made ice creams (enough fat, enough churning) I've never made a batch too hard to scoop straight from the freezer. In short, this machine works beautifully and its make quality ice cream. I'm very happy with it.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is Cuisinant ICE-30BC machine easier  than Cuisinart ICE-21 to use ?**
A: They both look exactly the same in function, its just the 21 is a bit smaller and has more plastic.  Check this guy's video on Youtube and it breaks down the ICE-21.  http://youtu.be/jPPdSCHBTR4And he did the same for the ICE-30BC:     http://youtu.be/Q40vHKdJmpY

**Q: my machine will not freeze the mixture after the tub in freezer for a week. its like cold milk with some ice. two different batches same results.Why?**
A: I always make sure my gel is good and frozen, I make the mixture and put mixture in stainless steel bowl and put in freezer for about 30 mins to an hour u can tell the mixture kinda starts to thicken up then I pull gel bowl out and churn. Also I make sure my whole milk and heavy cream are REALLY COLD like I don't make it the day I buy milk from store so all this can make or break ur Ice cream.... another thing I like to do to make creamier ice cream is use half and half instead of whole milk. Yummmmy...

**Q: Is the interior of the mixing bowl stainless steel?**
A: The interior of the mixing bowl scratched after first use.  So I don't think it is stainless steel

**Q: Why won't my lid stay on? 
It acts like either the paddle is too long or the freezer has swelled. My wife and I have both tried and it doesn't matte**
A: We have had this machine for 8 years, make ice cream at least once a month or more if holidays & birthdays. I have never had a problem with the freezer part swelling nor the paddle not setting in correctly and don't have a problem with the lid.
we wash and dry the freezer bowl and put it in a zip lock bag and stick it in the freezer for the next time. We have two freezer bowls so we can make 1 gallon at a time.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I love this ice cream maker!
*by E***1 on January 2, 2026*

This ice cream maker is so much fun. It's easy to use... just make sure you freeze the bowl as directed or your ice cream will not freeze. The ice cream is delicious and creamy. It does make some noise, but not enough to bother me. Highly recommended!
