Does the freezer compartment keep ice cream frozen?

If you have the fridge turned up high it will keep small amounts of ice cream frozen.

No, the canister does not need to be frozen. Ice cream freezes perfectly during the churning process. Just keep adding ice and salt as the ice melts.

You got a cold fridge! Not to me. But be careful not to fill your container to the brim, the ice cream can work its way into the lid. Don't try and take the lid apart: you will render it useless. Leaving you with a glorified bucket.

the freezer has a door, and a helf below it that keeps another thing frozen. can fit one or two large frozen dinners in the freezer

They can but what I do. Get an gallon plastic container (like the ones that are in the grocery that have the ice cream in it)sometimes it's 5 quartz, When you get ice cream,in the store sometimes buy one of those and keep it. Any plastic container that has a tight fitting top will work. But if you happen to use the canister from the ice cream freezer then take out the middle thing before you put the canister in the freezer.

I've frozen very liquidy ice cream before with no problem. The cartons seem to have a light wax coating on the outside that should protect the paper from saturation.

I do not know offhand, will check when I get home. The compartments are definitely separate freezer and refrigerator, it sounds like the one reviewer had a bad unit.

No, it doesnt. It just needs ice around the canister while youre making the ice cream. No pre - freezing the canister required.

Hi, it appears that the freezer compartment is the cooler for the entire fridge. The control knob is a part of the freezer but I can't be 100 % certain that there isn't a way to take it apart because it's completely frosted over right now and I can't inspect it properly! My guess is no. But you can use the freezer as regular fridge space for some things because it isn't all that cold. I put some ice cream in there and it got soft. It didn't melt and make a runny mess but it was not frozen.

This item has the compressor built in so you do not have to worry about freezing anything except the left over ice cream.

Depending on the recipe, you may need to do two cycles or at least a portion of the second cycle. The machine will let you know when the mixture is so frozen that the paddles will no longer move. Additionally, i always put it in containers and put it in the freezer. I have made so many different flavors of ice creams with my WHYNTER and have had no problems. i did my due diligence prior to buying it & it was ranked #1 by COOKS & CONSUMERS. Anytime i make a purchase, those are the two best sources to check.

No. There is a small freezer section on top that can be made much colder (freezing temp), and the larger refrigerator section.

Yes, that can be an issue, but it's easily solved. Make sure that the ice cream is not up to the lid and tighten the lid so that it is slightly snug. It still has a seal, but is not tight. The other option is to let it sit out for approx 5 min and then unscrew it.

I've not frozen mine but I would think it may warp the lids on the containers. I'd suggest buying a small box at your grocery store to try it first. If it works get thisbox because its so much more economical tho!

No do not put it in Freezer compartment. The batteries may Die .I use it in normal refrigerator compartment and it works excellent!

The freezer isn't huge. I've got 2 ice cube trays, a few frozen zip lock bags of food, 2 pints of ice cream and a small bottle of liquor. Couldn't fit anymore in there. It's frustrating but better than any other small fridge I could find.

Yes. It is not a holding freezer. You need to empty the basket into your ice chest when full. You can turn it off and the ice will melt into the water tank below the holding basket. Any other questions let me know. C.B.
