Why ice cream made by continuous freezer is too hard or too soft
Tuesday, March 05, 2024Why ice cream made by continuous freezer is too hard or too soft?
If ice cream made by ice cream continuous freezer is too hard,We can find reasons from two aspects: formula and equipment.
Formula:
1.The sugar content in the ice cream recipe is too low. Sugar can affect the texture and taste of ice cream, and less sugar can make ice cream harder.
2.The fat content in the ice cream recipe is too low. Fat can help ice cream become softer and smoother, and less fat can make ice cream harder.
Equipment:
1.The temperature of ice cream continuous freezer is too low. If the temperature of the machine is too low, it will cause the ice cream to solidify quickly, making ice cream harder.
2.Ice cream was not thoroughly stirred and mixed in continuous freezer machine. Adequate stirring and mixing can ensure a uniform texture of the ice cream. Or it can cause the ice crystals in the ice cream to become too large, making ice cream harder.
3.Ice cream has been frozen for too long. If the ice cream is frozen in continuous freezer machine for too long, it will also become harder.
If ice cream made by ice cream continuous freezer is too soft, We can find reasons from two aspects:Formula and equipment also.
Formula:
1.The sugar content in the ice cream recipe is too much. Too much sugar makes ice cream too soft.
2.The fat content in the ice cream recipe is too much. It also can make ice cream too soft.
Equipment:
1.The temperature of ice cream continuous freezer is too high. If the temperature of the machine is too high, it will cause the ice cream to solidify slowly, making ice cream softer.
2.Depending on the ingredients, ice cream may not be fully stirred and mixed in the freezer, which may cause the ice crystals in the ice cream to be too small, making ice cream softer.
3.Ice cream has been frozen for too short. If the ice cream is frozen in continuous freezer machine for too short, it will also become softer.
To avoid ice cream being too hard or too soft, the sugar and fat content in the ice cream recipe can be adjusted to ensure an appropriate temperature in ice cream continuous freezer, fully stir and mix the ice cream mixture, and control the freezing time of ice cream in the machine.
