How to Make Ice Cream in a Commercial Soft Serve Machine?

Make sure the commercial soft serve machine is clean and properly sanitized before use.

Ensure that your ice cream mix is properly chilled according to the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Place the commercial soft serve machine on a stable and level surface.

Attach any necessary parts according to the machine’s instructions, such as the dispensing nozzles and the mixing reservoir.

Open the lid of the mix reservoir.

Gently pour the pre-chilled ice cream mix into the reservoir, being careful not to spill or overfill it. Follow the machine’s capacity guidelines.

If you’re adding any additional flavorings or mix-ins (like chocolate chips, fruit, or nuts), mix them into the ice cream mix before pouring it into the commercial soft serve machine.

Close the lid of the mix reservoir securely.

Turn on the soft serve machine according to its instructions.

Set the machine to the desired consistency and temperature settings. This will vary depending on the machine model and the specific ice cream mix you’re using.

Once the machine is ready (usually indicated by a visual or audible signal), pull down the dispensing handle to start dispensing the ice cream.

Hold the cone or cup at an angle under the dispensing nozzle to catch the ice cream.

Allow the ice cream to flow into the cone or cup, swirling it around to create that classic soft serve shape.

Lift the dispensing handle to stop the flow of ice cream.

You can serve multiple cones or cups in succession. Make sure to clean the dispensing nozzle between each serving to prevent cross-contamination and maintain the quality of your ice cream.

Follow the manufacturer’s instructions for cleaning the machine thoroughly after use. Proper cleaning is essential to prevent bacteria growth and ensure the longevity of the equipment.

Turn off the commercial soft serve machine and unplug it when you’re done for the day.
