5.5 Adjusting Hardness and Puffing

Use the 'Hard/Soft' setting on the LCD panel to adjust the firmness of the ice cream to your preference. The machine also features patented puffing technology, which can be adjusted using the included plastic puffing rods to achieve a 35%-45% puffing rate, enhancing texture and potentially saving raw materials.
