Related: Culture Forums, Support ForumsI'm planning to get an ice cream making machine soon.
Any input as to a good one?
I know Cuisinart makes a good one.

What ingredients?

(7,637 posts)You make the ice cream base by warming up milk in a saucepan, adding sugar, heavy cream and whatever else you want like vanilla, chocolate.. Let it cool off a bit and then pour it into that machine. It has a builtin freezing system. It will churn and freeze as it goes . Takes 20 minutes or so if I remember right (we have not used it recently).
It comes with a recipe book with dozens of ice creams and gelatos.

Havent needed to boil anything. It is on Amazon for around $130.00
If you want you can download the manual and recipe book from the cuisinart website to get an idea about whats involved.

I made the mistake of doing that once. The resultant batch became known as "blueberry marble" because that's how hard they get.
