does this dewar have material in it that absorbs the LN2 or can it be used as a non shipping dewar and the LN2 poured out to be used for ice cream?

Not sure what u mean by material that absorbs the nl2. But I use mine for ice cream and it fine.

this unit is for storage purposes. There is no material on the interior of the tank that will absorb the Ln2. the Ln2 will be can be poured out of this unit.

I don't think so, it has a specific indent on the bottom that holds it in the machine that spins it. I suppose you could use a mixer to turn the ice cream, but it would take a very long time and wouldn't mix slowly enough. Worth it to get the whole thing, it's only like $75 and includes the freezer bowl. Put the stuff in, set it and forget it!

It is NOT strong enough to dig out ice cream that is frozen HARD. I use it to get ice cream from the carton but mine isn't frozen completely solid. Hope this helps.

It is made out of silicone and it can go in the freezer. I would not try opening it or locking it down when it is that cold because plastic become brittle when cold.

Yes, I am 100% certain that the inside of the bowl is indeed stainless steel. I bought two of these Cuisinart ice cream bowls so that if we wanted to make two different kinds of ice cream, we wouldn't have to wait for another 12-24 hours for the bowl to become frozen again. There is some kind of liquid or gel located inside the sides of the bowl (the sides are about 3/4" thick), so the bowl freezes very nicely in the freezer and ice cubes are therefore not needed to be put around the outside of the bowl when you make ice cream. In terms of product quality, the stainless steel material and the workmanship are both excellent. Yes, I am 100% certain that the inside of the bowl is indeed stainless steel.

I don't know - haven't used it on ice - but it's working great for all my usual tasks like soups.

I've been using it to drill through shovel heads and its worked great. Does not have a liquid/coolant attachment. If its just an occasional job it will probably just fine. If you going to do a lot of metal cutting better off getting a drill press thats has the coolant attachment.

Is the canister too cold? Only used our machine once and it wasn't cold enough to freeze the ice cream! But, seems like there were directions for how long to freeze the canister before making ice cream?

Hello Jessica: The instructions say to remove the ice cream from the mixer bowl within 30 minutes or damage may occur to freezing chamber. Not having a lid for the freezing chamber would not be a good idea to use as a vessel for freezing anyways. I use Ziplock containers for ease.

This is not like the old crank ice cream units which used "hand power" to rotate the ice cream within an ice cavity. This unit is chilled and the ingredients are inside and are rotated via a paddle (electricity) to create ice cream. It will not work without the blade being rotated within the frozen holder. I hope this answers your question.

Yes. It uses Lithium Ion 1.5aH rechargeable batteries. Dewalt number DCB201

Aluminum coated steel. I returned mine and bought the Whynter ICM-15LS Ice Cream Maker, Stainless Steel. I bought mine for about $200 new on line with free shipping. This is a by far superior machine. It has auto stop, temp readout, timer. It gets the ice cream really cold and will shut off when done or when overloaded. I use mine 2 to 3 times a week. Had it for about 9 months.

I do not use ice in the cooler. I use it primarily to bring home frozen goods from the market. The frozen goods remain in good shape even if they are in the container for one hour. Ice cream stays cold as well. If I were to add a coolant I would use blue ice blocks that do not have real ice.

Hi, sorry for slow response. It seems to be a rigid food grade plastic. If you have really strong hands you might be able to squeeze it. I store mine in the fridge, which means I need to let it come up to room temp to get it to pour out. Othewise you could use a table knife and scoop it out. For me it is no big deal, as the quality and concentration is very good.

Lmao! To answer your question direct: it works best without the ice plug! I just unscrew it and leave it in the freezer for use in my lunch box! Lol! Sorry for the rant!!!

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.

I had to find plastic buckets and round containers to make my ice. The small buckets work best but are hard to find and expensive if you buy new. I tried plastic food containers from WalMart but they cracked apart quickly. One trick is to lay a straw or small popsicle stick on the top of the water and the water freezes to a more solid clear ice. Don't ask me to explain but it works. Not for commercial use.
