Why is my Creami powdery?

Quick answer

The pint was too cold or too lean to spin smooth. Add 1–2 tbsp of milk and hit Re-spin.

Fix it now

  1. Add 1–2 tbsp of the recipe's liquid (milk, cream or plant milk).
  2. Run Re-spin.
  3. Still crumbly? Add another splash and Re-spin once more.

Why it happens

It's most common with low-fat, low-sugar and high-protein bases, and when the freezer runs very cold. Letting the pint sit out for a few minutes before spinning can also help.

Next time

  • Mix the base thoroughly before freezing
  • Freeze the pint on a level shelf
  • Don't fill past the max fill line
