To assemble your Cuisinart CDM-100G, first ensure all parts are clean and dry. Attach the bowl to the base, ensuring it locks into place. Then, place the mixing paddle inside the bowl, followed by securing the lid. Plug in the machine and it's ready for use.
Ensure that the freezer bowl has been frozen for at least 24 hours prior to use. Also, check that the mixture is not too warm before pouring it into the bowl. If problems persist, consider adjusting the recipe or checking for any obstructions in the mixing paddle.
The freezer bowl and mixing paddle should be washed by hand with warm water and mild detergent. The lid and base should also be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid submerging the base in water or using abrasive cleaners.
Ensure the machine is placed on a flat, stable surface. Check that all components are properly assembled and that there are no foreign objects inside the bowl. If noise persists, contact Cuisinart customer service for further assistance.
Regularly clean all removable parts after each use to prevent buildup. Store the freezer bowl in the freezer so it's always ready. Periodically check the power cord for any signs of damage.
The ice cream is typically ready when it reaches the desired consistency, usually within 20-30 minutes of churning. The machine may slow down as the ice cream thickens.
Check the power supply and ensure the machine is plugged in securely. Inspect the motor for overheating, especially if used continuously for extended periods. Allow the motor to cool down before attempting to restart.
Yes, the Cuisinart CDM-100G is versatile and can be used to make sorbet. Simply substitute the ice cream mixture with a sorbet recipe, following the same freezing and churning process.
Ensure the mixture is well chilled before churning. Avoid overfilling the bowl, and consider adding a small amount of alcohol or corn syrup to the mixture to reduce ice crystal formation.
Transfer the ice cream to an airtight container and press a sheet of plastic wrap or wax paper directly onto the surface to prevent ice crystals from forming. Store it in the coldest part of your freezer.
