We use two kinds of freezers to make our ice cream. The first is a continuous freezer that blends the milk, cream, and sugar together. Then it\u2019s pasteurized and rests for 6-12 hours to let the flavors and ingredients come together. Afterwards, the ice cream is cooled and mixed in the refrigerated churn where we also add in flavors and toppings.<\/p>\n
The second way we make ice cream is using a batch freezer which is similar to the old hand crank style of making ice cream. This process allows us to be more hands-on and creative with the flavors we create.<\/p>\n
Once the ice cream is made, and packaged, either a pint, 1.75 qt or 3 gallon pail, the batch is moved to our blast freezer, which hardens the ice cream incredibly fast -20 degrees Fahrenheit, giving it the smooth texture you know and love!<\/p>\n
