Does anyone make their own ice cream from cream? what is your favorite ice cram machine?

I bought a Cuisinart ICE-20 from the resale shop last summer. Best $3.00 I've spent in a long time!

I haven't made ice cream with it yet, only fruit sorbets. I think the pineapple was my favorite, hubby enjoyed the mango. It's a great way to use up fruit besides smoothies.

It's just big enough for my family of 4. It is a little on the loud side. But I just remind myself that yumminess - is on it's way! I keep the bowl in the freezer in the event of a sorbet/ice cream emergency!

We also have an ice cream ball that we use in the summer time for kid parties and take it camping.

I have an Aroma Oldfashioned Ice Cream maker. The type that is a wooden bucket that you put the cylinder of ice cream ingredients inside of and fill with ice and sprinkle with salt. It has an electric crank and a hand crank. It works well.

Totally LOVE the Cuisinart one--the cannister is always in the freezer, ready to make ice cream at a moment's notice :) I got mine secondhand also--$5 at a yard sale.

I love the one that attaches to my Kitchen-Aid! It is so easy to use!

I have an older electric model,not sure what it is exactly but it works well,it's from the '70s,my Mom gave it to me and then I have a large White Mountain ice cream maker,this is one of the newer models and is electric,I love it,it's great for making ice cream in the Summer when the goats are producing well.

Yeah, I'm looking for something easy to use to quickly and efficiently dispose of excess cream! I can't make butter and cheese every day :D
