KitchenAid KSMICM Maker F.A.Q.

How do I assemble the KitchenAid KSMICM Ice Cream Maker?

To assemble the KitchenAid KSMICM Ice Cream Maker, first ensure the mixer is turned off and unplugged. Attach the drive assembly to the mixer, then place the freeze bowl onto the drive assembly, securing it in place. Ensure all parts are properly aligned before use.

What should I do if the ice cream maker is not freezing the mixture properly?

Ensure the freeze bowl was stored in the freezer for at least 15 hours before use. The freezer should be set to its coldest setting. Also, ensure the mixture is cold before churning.

How can I clean the KitchenAid KSMICM Ice Cream Maker?

After use, wash the freeze bowl, dasher, and drive assembly in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. The freeze bowl should never be washed in the dishwasher or submerged in water.

Why is my ice cream mixture leaking from the bowl?

Check if the freeze bowl has any cracks or damage. Ensure that the bowl was thoroughly dried after cleaning, as moisture can lead to ice formation and potential leaks.

Is it normal for the mixer to make noise during the churning process?

Yes, some noise is normal as the dasher churns the ice cream mixture. However, if you hear grinding or unusual sounds, stop the mixer and check for proper assembly or any obstructions.

How long should I churn the ice cream mixture?

Typically, you should churn the mixture for 20-30 minutes or until it reaches the desired consistency. If the mixture isn't thickening, ensure the freeze bowl is properly frozen.

What is the best way to store the freeze bowl?

Store the freeze bowl in the freezer at all times, so it is ready for use whenever needed. Place it in a plastic bag to avoid any odors or contamination.

Can I add mix-ins while the ice cream is churning?

Yes, you can add mix-ins such as nuts or chocolate chips during the last 5 minutes of churning to ensure they are evenly distributed.

How do I prevent ice crystals from forming in my ice cream?

Ensure the mixture is cold before churning and avoid over-churning. Store the ice cream in an airtight container in the coldest part of the freezer.

What should I do if the dasher is not spinning?

Confirm that the mixer is turned on and the components are properly assembled. If the dasher is still not spinning, check for obstructions or contact KitchenAid customer support.
