How is MIDAS different from traditional ice cream
makers?
Traditional ice cream makers work by slowly cooling
all the mixture until spontaneous freezing occurs throughout the volume.
The chilled liquid mixture begins to freeze on
contact with the cold canister wall forming a layer of ice cream.
The paddle scrapes the ice cream from the canister wall and blends it with
the mixture where it melts, cooling the mixture.
After 20-30 minutes the whole of the mixture has cooled enough for
freezing to occur spontaneously throughout its volume.
MIDAS, however, works simply by rapidly freezing the mixture which is near
to a cold surface.
After only 10-15 minutes all the mixture has frozen onto the cold
surfaces.
How does it work?
The special lid design ensures all the liquid mixture is close to a cold
surface.
Freezing occurs rapidly at the Canister and Lid walls which are cooled
with a technologically advanced FDA approved rapid freezing solution.

This patented concept prevents unwanted large ice crystals from forming
during freezing, eliminating the need for churning.
After 15-20 minutes, freezing will be complete and your ice cream is ready
to serve.
How is air
incorporated?
Very little air gets incorporated by the slow
stirring action of the paddle in a traditional ice cream maker.
Air is incorporated by beating the cream used in your
ice cream recipe.
For a lighter consistency use an electric hand mixer
and beat the semi-frozen mixture for 1-2 minutes to incorporate a greater
amount of air. The volume of your ice cream will be increased by up to
50%.
What are the advantages of using MIDAS?
