- This is a 3d printed ice cream machine. While it may look simple there were actually many engineering challenges that needed to be conquered in order to make it work.

You'll have an easier time finding ice cream recipes if you search for 'frozen custard' instead - the proper food-snob term for the type of 'ice cream' with which home cooks are most familiar. Alton Brown's Food Network content is usually a safe, sane starting point for recipes. I can speak to the efficacy of external agitation with no internal stirrer from personal experience, at least for small batches. If you ever want an idea for a version 3.0 I'd recommend a way to add a salt and ice jacket for onboard cooling to avoid using up freezer space and to let it run in the open where people can watch the gizmo go.
Good info, thanks!
Having grown up alongside a classmate for most of K-12 who was from a family that owned a frozen custard shop, no. No they are not the same thing and saying they are is very insulting to the passionate people who build their lives around making and selling each. They are similar dishes to a respectable extent, but there are several fundamental differences between them - which I couldn't do justice in explaining even if I did remember them after more than a decade and a half away from that Worthy.
Thank you for the brilliant idea! I tried it! Turning the container inside a freezer does make good ice cream. The design in the video will not fit my freezer so I designed and made one that fits. I also don't have a mason jar so I reused a plastic ice cream container instead.
Fascinating approach. I wonder how much air you were able to incorporate into the ice cream? My understanding about the paddle approach is that it both minimizes water crystal size, refining the texture, and also incorporates air, lightening the texture.
Airy ice cream is gross
@@taylordavis1543 only because it looks like forbidden barber cream
I have a double paddle hand churn... it makes ice cream on par with commercial ice cream not too airy either... if you churn it about untill you are ready to give up and let it sit for about another hour chilling... you get nice firm creamy icecream with no crystals and perfect for floats etc... the key to good results from my commercial churn at least is using heavy whipping cream + small amount of milk + premixing the sugar in a separate container then pouring it in if you mix the sugar in while in the churn it doesn't mix well in the tall churn leading to bad results.
Amazing design, I‘m definitely gonna build that one and experiment with some weird flavours.
Just a side note: if you want to make designs that are easily usable for people around the world, using ikea products is usually a good choice.
Their sizes are standardised and they are available nearly everywhere on the planet, so there’s little worry about wether people can find the parts to build the model.
In comparison, mason jars are super rare in most countries and so they can be quite expensive (the first one I found on Amazon that didn’t have a grip on the side, a hole for a straw or any other design element specific for making it a „quirky“ drinking glass and didn’t require me to buy in bulk was 11€ plus 6€ shipping)
Ikea might be big in Europe but not in most of Latin America I'm afraid
I don't know about Mason jars. But maionaise pots seems to be that exactly size here.
@@DelisonJunio that’s a good point.
Maybe there is some other type of glassware that’s internationally available and somewhat standardised?
@@monad_tcp We don’t even have mayonnaise pots where I live. Only tubes or very tiny glasses that vary in size and shape depending on manufacturer.
Kinda weird that we live in a globalised world and still don’t have a type of glassware that’s standardised in size and internationally available.
I really like this upload, man. Hyped for more print-in-place projects!
This is a wonderful idea! And I really like the way you shared your design process, along with the reasoning behind the parts.
Thank you for explaining your design thought process! very well done
Nice job! Keep up the great work. Love to see maker innovation.👍🏻
The ad tangent you went on at the 35 second mark was something!
loved the design and the explanation video great job :)
You could also use this to make butter at home btw.
My suggestion would make it able to hook up with a standard cordless drill that most house holds would have
Now this is why I'm subscribed! Perfect everything
Oh Wow man this Machine is very good 😃 you are soo good at Thinking about other people's problems and making the product Flawless. Thank you amazing video btw
Literally the coolest video I watched all day. Knowing how much I love ice cream, I am tempted to learning this and printing my own somewhere.
You got some great stuff right on , love to see great designs .
just finished a similar design with parts I had lying around
Thanks for the great idea, I hope it works out
Amazing design dude!
My wiring and motor showed up yesterday and got it working. Did fill it up with water to test it like the other person tried, and so far everything seems to work fine.
So now just need to run to the store and get some of that heavy whipping cream, and try out your recipe.
I wonder if it could work rotating on the other axis? Because that would then be more compact and easier to store in a freezer, freezers where I am are much much smaller than the US ones, and a device like that wouldn't even fit in an empty draw of most freezers, they don't have the height.
AKA a rock tumbler. I think the splashing of the cream is key.
I think it could work, but you'd need to put some sort of paddle inside the jar to actually stir the liquid around, otherwise it'd just stay at the relative "bottom" of the jar for the most part
I had this same thought, I wondered why he didn't even mention it
@@ianr2002 this is some good reasoning right here
Its should work as long as you add some padle good idea !
Aw man, now I’m hungry… 🍦
Fantastic designs!
Fusion 360 .... never again.
However, your designs are pretty damn good; nice work!
Blender could probably do all this without crashing or even requiring you to map out ever mm in advance. :-)
@@darrennew8211 Blender isn't CAD software and is not designed for creating real world parts at a precise scale
@@brianmoody2949 It's not CAD in that it won't do any sort of analysis, but it's perfectly capable of doing precise modeling. Check out Maker Tales on youtube for a whole playlist instructing how. It's really not that difficult, especially after you install a plug in or two designed for that, like CAD Transforms or CAD Sketcher.
@@brianmoody2949 Alternatively, if you prefer something with native unitary precision and without the risks of internet unavailability or licensor corruptibility, you can always use OpenSCAD or FreeCAD depending upon your stylistic methodology preference.
This is winning at 3d printing. 👍👍
Love this sorta stuff.
How long did it take in the freezer?
Thanks! About six hours
Cool project! I guess I want to make some ice cream now too 😁
6:25 is sooo cool
It would be interesting to see if you could accomplish the mixing action by vibrating the jar.
you should make a version that spins along the axis of the jar so its more space friendly in a freezer
That's exactly what I though. Why spin the bottle that way? Just makes it way more complicated and takes more space!
The fact that you can hear 3d printers in the background of the vo is great lol
The only downside being that you need a lot of space in your freezer.
We have a slider/cupboard stile freezer so it will never fit. But it inspired me anyway - I will find a way to make it work
Wow! Nice project. Fun video. Now make an unnecessarily complicated version that rotates the jar and spins it at the same time.
it gives me the idea to adapt a food processor for this
This would be fun to fill with different colored liquids that repel eachother. Then take it up a notch by buying uv color additives and get that in slow motion under a black light
I am new to electronics and stuff, how did you power the usb while it was in the freezer?
I love desing, Can you make a bubble tea machine?
Nice design. I am wondering if it would work if the jar was on it side while spinning it.. I am thinking if it was on its side it would also conserve more space in freezer.
Ah yes ice cream and 3d printing ❤️
You probably could also use it to make butter with a slightly faster motor.
This is a 3d printed rock tumbler.
You can use the same gadget at room temperature to make real butter, too.
It would be great to be able to use this outside somehow.
I would need a battery for this so I’m thinking of a li-ion cell and a protection circuit. there are many protection boards available just type li-ion protection board or stg, Li-ion can’t be charged at freezing temperatures but they will still have some voltage below 0C anyway it’s better to wrap it in a protective material
LiIon does not do so well under 8°C. I would strongly recommend against putting one in the fridge
Bad idea. Batteries and sub zero temperatures don't mix so well
How about to protect the battery pack inside polystyrene box or similar?maybe even adding small heater inside that box?
How did you power it in the freezer?
Just a cable to the inside or with batteries?
also maybe add some ball bearings to reduce friction and wear
Does it need to be glassware? Could you do the same thing with a plastic mayonnaise jar? Would love to see how a plastic jar would hold up for this use.
unlimited icecream!
It really mixes? By the time the ice cream froze it won't mix anything by just spinning instead of something mixing manually the ice cream like your first version.
Err, but then its frozen, so you dont need to mix it once again ts frozen..
Lomg before the entire thing has froze it will haveformed tiny crystalds inside the fluid as it moves around rather than large crystals. The entire thing will become too frozen to move in nce its full of tiny crystals . Which is exactly what you want.
That should be able to churn butter too.
Several Points: First do have a GoPro or some camera that you could do an actual video of the process in the freezer?
Next, I really think the food-safe plastic hysteria is a bit much. I have never used PLA but do use PET and PETG which is what the food industry uses. I think the biggest concern is not what you'd get off of the plastics (what is going to survive the +200C extruder temperature?) but sealing the layers to make sure that you don't harbor bacteria--but I think with heat-sealing you could mitigate that issue.
Lastly, I'm thrilled to see the 'tumbling-jar' method actually make ice-cream because trying to get a proper auger with enough power to work is a real challenge.
Great video and love all your commentors..
Love the presentation and thought process!
Curious as to how long it took for the recipe to freeze one you started it spinning and di you use a battery to drive the motor in the freezer or did you let a cord hang out of the freezer while it ran?
about 6 hours. cord hanging out
@@3DPrinterAcademy The nice thing about running a motor inside a freezer, is that the motor will be much more efficient at freezing temps and condensation won't really be an issue. Also, the reason why you would never get any rings as the mixture cools, is because the mixture will be fully mixed before freezing even starts.
What about a butter machine next? lol
What kind of power supply did you use?
Couldn't you make it with a roller system? You would lay the jar onto two rollers, one would be powered by a motor and the other would be passively driven by the jar. If you did this, you could make a few differently positioned holes for the rollers to fit any jar size. Just a thought.
Very cool machine. Do you know how much energy it needed for one jar?
I think its a 0.5W motor and needs to run for about 6 hours to freeze the cream. So, maybe 0.003 kWh. (Seems very small)
Now we just need to make it gravity powered!
🤯
I was thinking about making it spring powered like in a wind up clock mechanism.
@@seasong7655 I wonder how the spring would react in the freezer
@@NaClGod unless there’s condensation on the spring, it should work just fine, tough it might be smart to freeze it before winding so thermal contraction won’t be a issue.
With springs heat is more of an issue than cold.
I kinda want to make something like this to mix other fluids like paint or for me car polish that’s started to separate
this is probably a good mixing device in general!
I can see this to make butter
cool. and ill probably try it. BUT what is that noise?!
What are the dimensions of it? Just want to make sure it fits on my 3D printer
I think that you forgot the vanilla.
You could have shown how you placed the device in in the freezer and progress vids, 8:30 that cut straight look to product looked like a Tik Tok craft scam . Don't don't get me wrong, LOVE your work (liked and subbed) just friendly pointers.
Thanks! 5:25 shows the first version in the freezer
It can mix other foods too.
Size? I found the STL on your webpage, but it would be nice to leave it in the description. And I honestly thought it was a free model.
1:15 the marble Machine is a realy cute Idea,but i personally have a grudge against large Prints wich incorperate 3d printed springs...dont ask
What infill did you use?
whats the song at the end?
Stirring device: Chopsticks. They're all pretty much the same size.
dude...just add grooves for bb balls to roll in your joints,make it a bearing so it wont wear down all that fast,add probably second axle of rotation to make it really mix it all up.. there's so much cheap upgrades and yet ...
You dont need another axis of rotation. You're not making a slush casting machine. You just need to keep the fluid moving while ice crystals form.
No. That is a butter churn. Ice cream requires ... ice... that is made colder than ice.
Could you also put the V1 up for sale?
Who do I have to talk to to get a functional typewriter 3D printed
can you design a slushy machine
How did you get so good at Designing 3d models?
by designing lots of things, practice practice practice
Thank you for taking time to respond to my Question.
Other way around at 5:10. They contract.
Bro I love your videos
Cool machine! 😎 be cool to be able to check out your profiles.
is it really work ??????? only seeing the ice cream pop up out of nowhere
Сделать восковку по резьбе и отлить из бронзы, точнее и проще
How did the motor last in the freezer, did the freezing temp cause any issues to the motor?
Im assuming the device and motor was inside, and the motor wires were directed out of the freezer, to a plug socket or power source
the motor shouldn’t have any problems except a little bit of corrosion but it should still last a lot
Apart from friction, the motor is the only part of this machine that will heat by itself, so probably will never be below zero.
great design. How would look like a mechanism that will put that on the next level by extra shake while rotation like two steps forward and one step back? Some planetary gears?
Epicyclic gears would only change the gearing ratio, in your context. What you want needs either specially shaped gears or a reversing mechanism that uses timing gears. @King Mechanical frequently posts videos rendering examples of these and other mechanisms and their operational motions.
Of course, if you *really* want to mix something up externally, three rotational axes and at least two vibrational axes is absolutely the way to go! XD but then you're getting something the size of a paint or cement shaker, probably.
@@claws61821 That would be awesome to find out if ice cream of cement is still soft enough to use a spoon on it :D
@@2EOGIY lol the sad thing is that this isn't the first time I've heard or seen that joke
Cool
Can this make slushies?
probably!
I don't care about learning how to design it, give me the recipe! Haha XD
How did you power the motor whilst in the freezer and what method did you use to avoid shorts from the wet cold air?
A cable goes out through the rubber seal (the cable is thin so it doesn't compromise the seal too much). Wires have heat shrink, but it's not perfect insulated. I didn't have any issues with shorting. But maybe sealing the wires with hot glue could work.
Maybe a polystyrene container to cover all the electronics would be a cheap and easy way to protect them for the 6 hours it takes to freeze the ice cream.
I just put the finishing touches on this and installed the 60rpm N20 motor. It turns when empty, but when I tested it with a mason jar half full of water, the motor was still turning but the gears in the motor started slipping (NOT the 3D printed gears). Is this normal?
I haven't had any issues with the N20 motor gears slipping. It should be able to handle a good amount of torque. Make sure the axle isn't slipping in the 3d printed gear.
@@3DPrinterAcademy Yep. I checked again and that's exactly what's happening. The axle is slipping in the drive gear. I'll tweak it and print it again. Thanks.
@@3DPrinterAcademy Got it! I reprinted the drive gear with a 5% smaller shaft hole and it works like a champ!
Idea: The clip could be wedge shaped to accommodate more different sizes. Also it's easier to put on.
Wouldn't it work by just spinning the bottle laying down? Thus making a super simple design?
This video was really good
1 good idea
2 good filming
3 good music
make dumplings
It didn't fit in the freezer I BET
you could ubgrade this so it use ice and salt instead a freezer so you could make ice cream on the go
What battery did you use
This is using a 5v power adapter and is connected to wall outlet. The power cable goes through the freezers seal.
4:09 Can I get detailed instructions, please?
Here is what I did:
4 parts heavy whipping cream : 1 part sugar syrup (adjust depending on how sweet you want)
Add any flavorings (chocolate chips, vanilla, mint etc.)
Combine and Tumble for 4-6 hours in freezer
Take out of freezer and manually stir (scrape sides)
Place back in freezer for an additional 4 hours
Enjoy!
I want to discuss about this ice cream machine .
I wanted it with more complex mechanism .
Like it should be spinning like globe .
I think, i unable to explain my statement here .
Sorry !
What about a rock tumbler machine like device - 2 rollers. Any round'ish shape should work then 🤓
Had the same idea, already drawing up a sketch to then turn into a Solidworks project.
@@OddJobEntertainment perhaps tilt rollers to keep cream in bottom end of jar and to keep jar on rollers. Then rollers need only a flange in one end. Maybe - or not..🤓🤔
@@TheStuartstardust I think it would save more space if the jar is totally flat. I'm thinking just add a stopper on either end of the jar to keep it from moving up and down (relative to the jar).
You actually want at least a rocking motion between the top and bottom of the jar to prevent settling. Even with the jar flat along the cylindrical facing, your mixture will get an undesirable gradient of concentrations. That's part of why you generally always see a tilt mechanism on any sort of rotary mixer in several different industries. It helps with dispensing, but the primary purpose is to provide more even mixing. That's also why really expensive mixers and rotocasters implement three or sometimes more rotary axes despite diminishing returns as well as two or more vibratory axes.
@@claws61821 uneven rollers with offset centers - boom - solved! 🎤⬇️
There's nothing wrong with volumetric measurements in baking. Liquids are incompressible so there's no possibility of a difference there, and for the most part granulated solids are as well. The two exceptions are brown sugar which is usually specified in recipes as "packed" which accounts for a possible issue and flour which, admittedly, compaction isn't usually accounted for. You're *supposed* to sift flour before using it to keep it airy (and properly work in additives like leveners) but I'm honestly too lazy for that so I usually don't, but I am aware of the differences compaction can make so I know what not to do. For the newbie baker, though, I could see the argument of weighing *just* flour. Everything else is much faster and easier volumetically.
There's actually a lot of debate at every level of both hobby and profession about whether flour should be sifted or scooped whole or scooped incrementally and about the effects of each. Probably as much argument there as over volumetric measurement vs weight and percentage for ingredients.
The design itself isn't particular exciting. And along the jar axis would have been much simpler. The actual interesting part is how to get power inside the freezer. Too bad that part was not covered in the video.
🥶
Pro tip, instead of the Jan use an insulated container which already has been in the freezer and therefore will freeze the liquid in it. Now you can rotate this new container and the content will freeze without the need to put this whole contraption into the freezer.
However as a mechanical design engineer I must say, your machine is very well done and pleasing to look at, great job.
and the motor is too slow
Well, it is not an ice machine but a turn a jar in the fridge machine. But that is very well done. I have more stuff in the freezer and would be a litte concerned about all the plastic sitting next to the other food stuff's. Keep it comming good job.
The plastic isn't dangerous. It's the food getting stuck in the layer lines and then rotting and then getting stirred back into the ice cream that's a problem. Remember it's exactly the same plastic that soda and bottled water is packaged in.
