To assemble the Krups GVS142, start by placing the bowl in the freezer for at least 24 hours. Once frozen, insert the paddle into the bowl, attach the lid, and lock it into place with the motor unit. Ensure all parts are securely connected before plugging in the machine.

How can I ensure the ice cream mixture reaches the right consistency?

Ensure the bowl is thoroughly frozen and chill the mixture in the refrigerator before pouring it into the machine. Follow the recommended churn time in the manual and avoid overfilling the bowl to allow proper air incorporation.

What should I do if the paddle stops turning during operation?

If the paddle stops, it could be due to the mixture being too thick or the bowl not being cold enough. Turn off the machine, check the mixture consistency, and ensure the bowl is adequately frozen. Restart the machine and try again.

How do I clean the Krups GVS142 Ice Cream Maker after use?

Disassemble the unit by removing the motor, lid, paddle, and bowl. Wash the paddle, lid, and bowl in warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly. Wipe the motor unit with a damp cloth. All parts should be completely dry before reassembling or storing.

Why is my ice cream not freezing properly in the machine?

Ensure the bowl has been in the freezer for at least 24 hours at a temperature below -18°C (0°F). Also, check that the mixture is cold before churning, and avoid adding warm ingredients during the process.

Can I make sorbet with the Krups GVS142 Ice Cream Maker?

Yes, the Krups GVS142 can make sorbet. Prepare your sorbet mixture and follow the same freezing and churning instructions as for ice cream. Ensure the bowl is frozen and the mixture is chilled for best results.

What maintenance is required for the Krups GVS142 Ice Cream Maker?

Regularly clean the unit after each use, ensuring all parts are dry before storage. Check for any wear or damage, especially on the paddle and motor unit, and replace parts as necessary. Store the bowl in the freezer if you make ice cream frequently.

Is it possible to add mix-ins like chocolate chips during churning?
