I've just noticed that they are a lot cheaper than I thought and was thinking of buying one. Does anyone know if they're any good? I doubt I'd use one enough to justify the cost of an expensive one and they all look far bigger.

Well they're meant to, whether they do and whether it tastes nice is what I'm trying to figure out.

If your bread maker is stuck gathering dust in your cupboard then make a apace next to it for the ice cream machine. If you use the bread maker then you may get some use out of ig

The problem with bread makers is that loads of them produce a really poor approximation of bread. If the ice cream was like that I wouldn't use the machine.
Some bread makers make bread that is rather good and if the ice cream was good then I would use it as I love ice cream.

So no one knows, Jason Herbert wants pics and the rest of you want some ice cream if it's good?

I know that ice cream machines have controls on the side with a numbered scale. This numbered scale corresponds to the number of minutes the machine is on for.

We borrowed one from a family member last year and it was ok. The main disapointment was that the machines are quite big but the ice cream you get is pretty small. I had tubs of the stuff in mind when in reality, it's about enough for 3 small portions. Tastes good when it sets properly, can be dodgy if not, don't just put it in the freezer if it's not working, it's not even close to being the same.

Providing it churns and freezes at the same time that's all you want.
Get some recipes together and have fun experimenting..
The cheaper ones won't last as long, but you'll be bored with it by then

Are the ones where you freeze the bowl (or similar) and don't have their own refrigeration any good? Or does it need it's own freezer?
