Can I store ice cream in the frezer without harming the ceramic coting?

The word is coating, not coting. I have never tried this but I suppose you could. If you are afraid something might happen to it just take it out of the freezer and temper it in two stages:1. transfer it to your fridge first2. leave it there for 1 half hour to one hour, preferably the latter.3. remove from fridge and let it reach room temperature before using in stove or oven.Regards,Rufus Velvet

That's probably ok. I ended up ruining mine be repeatedly heating it without anything in it (I kept getting the burner knobs mixed up). Eventually the enamel coating popped off the iron core. So there is some temperature sensitivity in the enamel coating. Granted, I was stupid. I should have been more careful. :(

No, i don't think its a silly question at all... but to answer your question... No, i don't believe it can. It has a tiny little freezer section in the top corner but that only freezes enough to make ice. If you were to put ice cream in either frig or freezer it might stay really cold and formed but it will become very very soft like it was slowly melting or something. but ice cream bars seem to stay frozen in the freezer part (bars like ice cream snickers or just regular candy bars,butter,ice) things of that nature.Well, i hope i was of some help to you with this reply. Feel free to ask anything else you need to know about my experince with this purchase. I'm happy to help. No, i don't think its a silly question at all... but to answer your question...

How about storing it in the freezer after you empty it? might get brittle though...

Not that I know of, but I just place a small piece of cling wrap or foil when freezing baby food. As soon as it was frozen I transferred it to a ziplock bag. This is the best baby tray I have found.

Answer: YES. From the package instructions: "Transfer ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze, or serve straight from the Canister. Lid and Lid Cap are included for the option of storing the Canister in the freezer."

Absolutely you can. And like Calvin said, the less ice cream you make the faster it freezes. I have had mine for over a year now and it continues to work flawlessly. Excellent product.

You can, but I would seal what's inside in a zip lock freezer bag. Make sure the box is upright otherwise it would collapse under pressure. I wouldn't burry it to deep.

I am not sure about the freezer or freezer to oven use as I have not used it this way. The lid is NOT air tight. It fits inside the glass dish too. It does not have a cove cover. It will smash into the top layer of your food item as it sits inside about 1/4 of an inch or so.

No. The manufacturer's instructions say not to leave ice cream in the bowl for longer than 30 minutes. You will need to store it in a separate container.

You could probably use dry ice to freeze it but I would keep a barrier like a towel between the dry ice and the plastic. Dry ice has a surface temp of minus 109 fare height, it might cause the container to become brittle. If you have dry ice you might forgo the blue ice.

The refrigeration unit can be on for as long as necessary. The longest I've run it for is about 3 hours. It would not be your best bet for firming up softened ice cream. I don't really know if that is what you were asking, but your regular freezer is the place to ripen your ice cream. You could probably hold your ice cream in the machine for a while before serving, keeping it at 'soft serve' consistency. I have not tried to do this, so I am just speculating.

the inside (where the ice cream is made) never touches the outside provided you are careful of putting the lid on correctly, etc.However, be gentle with the ball, for if it breaks or cracks, you could have potential safety dangers.

I believe all covers will have some condensation. Would suggest to place the food on a plate.

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 would say no. I use old ice cream buckets for that. I don't think they are made for the freezer.

yes. but you don't want to get the whole thing wet before you freeze it. just a corner. otherwise your baby will be soaked when it melts.

Likely possible, but not suggested. Ice cream, made well, is full of fat. Fat takes on the flavors of what surrounds it, making ice cream particularly susceptible to tasting "like the freezer". A covered plastic (or Pyrex) container is a better choice for firming up your ice creams. The advertized Tovolo tub is amazing! I promise I'm not making any money (or anything else) for saying so. It is insulated, so the ice cream doesn't get overly hard. The lid is secure, but I haven't broken nails trying to pry it open. The slim design is perfect both for scooping, and saving space in my freezer. Likely possible, but not suggested. Ice cream, made well, is full of fat.
