This means it’s feasible to have it out on the worktop all season long, so the moment the urge for ice cream strikes, it can be mixed and popped into the removable bowl. It’s not too tall, so can fit underneath wall units easily, and is relatively compact overall for an ice cream maker with its own freezer. What it really has in its favour is the size. Its results were also incredibly good – taking only an hour to turn out perfectly churned, ready-to-serve ice cream that tasted far better than shop-bought. Ice cream makers with built-in freezers aren’t as affordable as those with pre-freeze bowls but this model costs far less than the Cuisinart (below) and Sage (above) makers we’ve reviewed here. All in all, one of the easiest, mess-free ice cream-makers tested. Its consistency was just hard enough to scoop into balls but needed more time in the freezer to become properly firm. The ice cream was ready in 26 minutes and was easily removed using the included spatula. It cooled the mixture quickly, reducing it from 18C to -5C in the first seven minutes.īy 15 minutes, it had started to clump around the paddle and by 17 minutes, had reached -22C. It was left to count up as it churned (it’s not a countdown as it monitors the hardness as it goes). The hardest ice cream setting was chosen. In tests, it was used to make strawberry ice cream, a custard-based recipe that required pre-prep before pouring in the bowl. Considering that it’s a model with its own freezer, The Smart Scoop’s worktop footprint isn’t as big as some equivalent machines. The parts are simple to wash by hand, with an included brush. While the bowl isn’t dishwasher safe, the paddle and lid are.

Then there's a manual option with a timer from five minutes to three hours. There’s even a three-hour 'keep cool' setting – perfect for not having to dash away from guests. It includes a one-litre bowl, and a pre-cool that helps to create the dense texture of gelato. It comes with 12 presets, which translate to three hardness settings for sorbet, gelato, ice cream and frozen yogurt. As if making your own ice cream wasn’t fun enough, the Smart Scoop comes packed with features to make it more joyful.
