Does this machine make gelatto? I am more interesting to make it than ice cream. If so, what is a good recipe book or website? Thanks

The machine does all sorts of ices and gelatos etc. We googled ice cream recipes and found tons to choose from so would recommend you try that.

Sent mine back...Tried ice cream, gelato, & frozen custard...chilled ingredients first, ice crystals formed in all 3 recipes but didn't solidify...i like soft ice cream but all 3 efforts had the consistency of frozen slushies. Maybe it was the unit, but wasn't willing to retry. My sense is that the compressor was fine, but the small paddle was plastic and not powerful enough to actual churn the mixture adequately.

Although I've never tried it before, it should. Just don't use over 2 cups of fluid ( Due to the increase in volume when freezing) :-)

The Marcato 150 comes with a dual sided attachment for making Fettuccini or Spaghetti. There are other attachments available for Linguini, Vermicelli, (Thin Spaghetti), Cappelinni (Angel Hair). You can also make Lasagna or Ravioli. How long your noodles are is up to you. When you "roll out" the dough through the rollers, you start at 0 (rollers wide apart), then dial up the numbers until you get the thiness you need. The dough will get longer as you roll it out, so just cut the dough to the length you'd like. For Spaghetti or Fettuccini, I usually go to "7", skipping every other number. I have no problem keeping the rollers clean. The key to making great pasta is a dry dough; elastic, but not wet or sticky. You just lightly brush off the rollers, because the dough will not stick. If it does, let the dough dry, then it will brush off easily. Easy recipe for pasta dough: 2 cups Semolina flour 2 cups All Purpose flour 6 eggs 2 Tablespoons Olive Oil pinch of salt I let my bread machine do the work, but you can knead it.....the important thing is to wrap the dough in plastic, and let it rest for 30 minutes. Depending upon humidity, you may need to add 1 or 2 tablespoons of water. Fresh pasta is WAY better than boxed, IMHO. I'm never quite sure what people mean by "macaroni", but if you mean a short, hollow noodle, this machine will not do that.

I don't now about recipes other than Google it but I made a bunch of Mac and cheese with it because we had so much pasta in our cupboard to use up. I just used it as you would on the directions to making Kraft Mac and cheese. (Boil your pasta and set aside after draining then make your sauce which consists of butter or margarine, milk and the Cheddar Cheese Powder) It came out great!!!

I am a novice at it so I bought the Dash Yogurt maker & I have to say I LOVE IT!!! (about $35 on sale @ Kohl's, they sell it here as well) I know you can do it on your own, but I feel secure knowing it knows exactly the right temperature & time to get the perfect results for me. The first time out I made a wonderful mistake by staining it (comes with it's own strainer) for way too long, about 12 hours I think & it turned into the most delicious cream cheese. I now am looking for a strainer only so I can have my Greek Yogurt & a cream cheese version on hand at all times. Now to find out more recipes!

Yes it does, in addition to ice cream, frozen yougart, sherbet and Gelato. Very easy To use and very easy to clean up. One recommendation is to make multiple batches at a time. Most base ingredients are the same it is the "flavors" that are different. Example I made today Honey & Tyme ice cream, Chocalate Bourbon Gelato and Avocado ice cream this morning. Each make about 1 1/2 quarts of ice cream and we are having company for Mother's Day tomorrow, this will be dessert.

Yes it can, but you can't use a high hardness level as the dashers will freeze to the side of the can. You would have to make a gelato style, put the ice cream in a different container and freeze in your freezer. The manual says it will make 1.5 qts of ice cream, but when I remove it into freezer containers the finished product will fill a 2 qt container due to overrun

Yes, and I have made a lot of great ice cream. However, I have had to do it manually; with the crank. The motor broke after about five uses.

I don't think this machine can help you make "mochi ice creams". I haven't done it myself, but using "mochi-ko-(rice flour)"�i���*��jis the way to do it. Make dough from this, and cover ice cream with it.

Tiramisu used to be my favorite dessert when I lived in Europe :-) Never made it though. The gelatin is flavorless, so I do not see why not. Also there is a product called "Clear Gel" with detailed customer reviews, and you might put your query there too.

I have made pizza dough and bread with great results. I suppose it all depends on the receipe you use. My suggestion would be to visit their website or better yet call and ask them specifically. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

We need manual for our Lello Gelato machine. Could we get HELP finding how to acquire one?

The only thing I make is cheese straws and the motor is not strong enough to push dough thru. Therefore I have never been able to use it. Sorry&#128530;...

I only have a humble Donvier, and am looking for something like this machine, but I have made Ice cream with Splenda (excellent) and Stevia (not so good, but I think it was bad stevia) and used substantially less of each than the sugar called for in the recipes. Consistency was fine, though I sometimes add a little gelatin if making a reduced fat batch. I would think you could make a no sugar added recipe that's fine as long as you use the Splenda. Not sure about other substitutes.

Hi, I made my first batch of ice cream today and it was fabulous. My recipe called for 1 cup milk, and I used 3/4 cup of lactaid fat free milk and 1/4 cup of light cream. I also used some heavy cream, fresh strawberries and sweet n low (I'm not lactose intolerant, just avoid sugar). It was great, very creamy and easy to scoop, not at all runny.

Can I use my bricks or does it only grind? Also, this is my first Espresso machine, I know almost nothing about them. Does it come with a good manual? Based on some reviews I read I feel I need to hold a doctorate to operate one. Tell me it aint so.

I bought this ice cream make r used but it doesn"t have the recipe book or instruction. Is anyone able to copy me the recipes thru an e-mail. I hear they are great. I really don't have to have the instructions as it is pretty simple and most can be figured out by reading the reviews. Thanks Vicky
