What to look for in ice cream makers

1. Capacity

The capacity of your ice cream maker will determine how much ice cream you can make at once. If you have a large family or frequently entertain guests, opt for a larger model.

2. Freezing Method

Ice cream makers use different freezing methods. Some require pre-freezing the bowl, while others use a built-in freezer. The latter is more convenient but also more expensive.

3. Ease of Use and Cleaning

Look for models that are easy to assemble, operate, and clean. Some machines come with dishwasher-safe parts which can save you time.

4. Speed

How quickly do you want your ice cream? Some machines can churn out a batch in less than 20 minutes, while others may take up to an hour.
