I have the 570 what setting would I use for ice cream?
I just bought a Blendtec and am wondering whether I should keep my ice cream maker. If I wanted to make a traditional vanilla ice cream in the Blendtec, could I get it hard like ice cream gets when it comes from the store or is it more the texture of soft serve?
Blend on Lo for 15 seconds, then blend on Med for 30 seconds. Here’s a link to all Blendtec Cycle Conversions that might be helpful in the future: http://www.blendtec.com/blo… Happy Blending!
Can you substitute the coconut milk with almond milk?
It is softer when first blended but you can put it in the freezer and have it harden up.
Yes, you can! The taste will vary a little depending on the type of milk but you can substitute any milk of your choice.
what a blendtec I have an use reg. blender have ice cream maker
I have almond milk and do not like it any one think the recipe will work with any kind of fruit
Yes, you can. The taste will differ depending on the milk you use.
Can you substitute with a no fat milk or cream?
Can this be made easily in the wildside jar? would doubling it be best in order to succeed?
I have the wildside jar and can’t get it to blend this consistency. It won’t blend anything thicker than a standard smoothie. Is this normal? Disappointed I can’t get it to make the "ice cream" like in the demonstrations.
I just made this in my Wildside Jar. Tried the mini twister first but that was going to spill out everywhere.
So, Wildside it is. Used almond milk with a bit of agave, lemon and frozen strawberries. YUMMMM! Going to get some popsicle molds and put this with other fruit into those to make delicious pops!
A bit disappointed—I got a Designer 725 just last week with more wattage and hp than the other Blendtec at-home models. This was only the second time I used it and it kept cavitating during the blend and telling me to add more liquid. After watching a "Will It Blend" video where the blender demolished a Apple iWatch, I expected my 725 would have no problems. Great soft serve once I finally got it blended.
"Ice cream" is definitely more of a soft serve consistency in the Blendtec. The more frozen ingredients you use, the thicker it is. This particular recipe calls for the Twister jar which is made specifically for thicker recipes. In the WildSide+ jar, you can add more frozen ingredients to get it thicker but you may have to stop during blending and scrape the blend back down to the blade.
I have the wide square jar blendtec. What adjustments should I make?
Sorry to hear that. Please give our customer service team a call at 1-800-748-5400. They’ll be able to give you some tips and also make sure there is nothing wrong with your blender or jar. We want you to have a great experience with your Blendtec!
You’ll want to double the recipe and you’ll likely have to stop blending and scrape the sides back down to the blade several times.
can you use mocha milk instead of coconut milk?
I have the same problem with the 725. I’ve seen several demonstrations come out fine but the ice cream function does not work. I can add a gallon & it will still say add more liquid. Now I have to spend another $100 on a twister jar?
I don’t have the twister jar so, I cannot make a fair comment on the texture. I have the wild side jar and it was delicious but, much softer. My kids loved it! I used it on the ice cream setting and I used lite coconut milk. Enjoy! It was so refreshing!
