Sorry but 110$ for a ice cream cookbook. Mate you need to look at other price points.
it's not just ice cream though is it?@@camaro02dk
@@camaro02dk how long to leave pint out before blending i heard it can damage the machine if u use it rock solid from the freezer i tryed letting it sit out for 15 mins before blending sometimes it gets to watery if i let it sit out to long not sure thare is a sweet spot like 7 mins out before blend
i run it under hot water for 30 sec to 1 min... my machine has done over a 100 deluxe pints. no issue@@simplylucky8829

A warning that groceries generally aren't free and that you need ingredients to cook is hilarious.
Ice cream MAKER can't just MAKE ice cream? Scam!
This is the best review of a Creami that I've ever seen. The importance of giving it a thorough cleaning after each use is something that shopping channels should discuss in depth during the product presentation. And, your sense of humor is excellent! 😂
You know you’re an addict when you have 15 pints for your Ninja Creami!! 😅. Good video!
I eat the same thing in the creami that I was eating before. Instead of eating my yogurt the normal way, I freeze it with stevia that I already use in my nonfat yogurt and I use frozen fruit from my freezer. My husband and I split a pint of tropical fruit frozen yogurt or I will take the chocolate protein powder that we would normally use in a glass of milk and I freeze it with our almond milk to make chocolate ice cream. So it actually costs us the same as it did before we started freezing it and turning it into ice cream with the creami.
Thanks for providing the thrifty version.
For diabetics or others on restricted diets, the Creami expands the possibilities available to us. I have used a churn to make ice cream for several years but must admit the Creami is easier. The quality is not quite up to churned ice cream but it’s darn close and it is much better than most of the (limited) options available at the grocery store.
My current hot tip for people doing protein ice cream in the creami- add oat fiber to creami recipes. It helps thicken it, tastes just slightly like oats (which works well with a ton of other flavors), helps keep you full longer, and adds fiber to your diet which most people arent getting enough of
Good tip
No one wants shitty oat flavored ice cream
@@evictioncarpentry2628 Who puked into your oat meal?
@@kd10230 Your mom after I found her gag reflex
What ratio or how much would you recommend adding per pint? I'd be interested to try because the idea sounds pretty plausible to me 👌
I just bought your cookbook… you sold me to it! You’re way to dedicated so the cookbook is a MUST.
Censoring vin*gar is peak comedy. Well done sir
Your production quality impoved a lot since the last time i watched your channel. Great work and great info!
I got mine because of your videos and the protein ice cream varieties are ridiculous. Also shout out to Iron Musket, if they give out awards for editing he should have a shelf full of them. The pacing and entertainment is top notch. 😂
Yeah he needs a Streamy Award next year.
Yoo thanks so much Ron, that made my day!
Musket got so good at editing so fast its kinda scary how his video went from amuetur to professional while in the same year
My go to is canned pears, vanilla protein powder, a little vanilla pudding mix, xantham gum, a little bit of milk of choice/canned fruit liquid, and vanilla extract or beans if i have it. Making protein cookie dough from will tennyson to mix in puts it over the top.
This is perfect timing!!!! I was just about to purchase one today 😁
You have such a great personality and production value. You will certainly hit 1million subs soon! Much love brother.
I've watched your content forever now it seems and I used to consistently make yours and muskets blender ice creams. Decided to just go out and finally get a creami and some good protein powder so I'm excited to try out all the new recipes I've missed. Hopefully I can go through all your videos again for the little "tips" to make sure I use it correctly. Thanks again for all the content. I'm sure I'll eventually try out the cookbook as well since I was decently let down from a couple other books from people on the platform. I actually like that your recipes are a bit more effort and it seems the foods come out closer to the real thing.
I’ve asked for a NC for Father’s Day to join in on the fun, too. Been Keto for 2 years, and I miss ice cream, which I used to eat a lot of!
Pumping out the low cal ice cream vids just in time for the winter bulks ;)
After your first creami videos i was able to find my creami from Target for under $90. I literally eat a pint of ice cream every night for the last few months and still been maintaining my weight while burning fat and packing up muscle
You got in at the PERFECT time. I thought I got a deal at $140 for my creami. Wow.
And here I am, willing to pay a premium on top of the mrp if it is shipped to my country
Good Lord, that’s amazing. I got my XL from Costco for $179.99, which I thought was pretty good.
$$$365 for me in Mexico 😂
Thank you SO much for this video! It's extremely helpful 💜
We need more creami recipes like the cookies & cream and that cherry vanilla and the apple pie one UGH so good
I sure hope a Creami recipe book is somewhere in the plans. It would be an immediate buy from me!
it comes with a book of over 20 recipes and tons of variations on each recipe.
One of the best things about this dude is that he never takes credit for himself when he uploads something. He always respects us, the audience, and he is always full of energy in his videos. Keep up the hard work!!
So glad I found this channel. Humble guy that provides value, he will blow up soon

@@certified_boogeyman bro shut your mouth if you don't know what you're talking about
Huel Black works AMAZINGLY in the creami. no additional ingredients required if you're using a flavored version.
For months (I lie.. A year) I have been debating on buying one of these machines. I have to admit.. “Hi my name is ….and I am an ice cream addict”. I can put down two pints per day and have been cutting it down gradually to 2 pints per week. I think I will now get one due to your video. I am looking forward to utilizing your recipes. Thank you! Oh, do I have to use those sugars and products you showed in the video to thicken the ice cream?
6:27 I lol’d so hard haha. Musket is silly for that one
You have great content brother! Glad to see a real one steadily growing.
Thank you!
Amazing video. Thank you for the awesome cleaning routine. ❤
Would LOVE to see more creami recipes! Your recipes are just the best 😭😍
Thank you!
For my taste I find that simpler recipes turn out better. 3 ingredients: milk, protein powder, and whatever flavor of sugar free pudding mix I'm in the mood for.
So does it work without gum thickeners, with just Jello? Gum thickeners are terrible for your digestive system, and jello is mostly modified starch based
What if you don't have sugarfree pudding mixtures in your country? Would xanthangum in itself work, if so, how?
@@ditz3nfitness look up the ingredients on these sugar free pudding mixes. Besides flavoring and sugar free sweeteners they are cornstarch and xanthan gum.
@@ditz3nfitness it's not needed at all, all you really need is a high protein milk (like Fairlife) and a protein powder. 1 on ice cream and another 1-2 respins (based on personal texture preference) and that's it. Personally if i go basic i'd do about 400ml of milk and 2 scoops of protein powder.
Aww hell yeah. The sugar free pudding mix is a game changer. I made a strawberry flavor protein ice cream and added sugar free vanilla pudding mix. I can’t believe how good it tasted.
Just bought one today! I can’t wait to use it!
Creami Deluxe for $179 at Costco right now. 3 pint containers included. I saw a different model at Sam's in the $150-160 range
ALSO
i absolutely LOVE My creami and recomend anyone that has the money to buy one. I went from 2 pints, to 4 now got 6 LOL. i can't stop! its so good, instead of going to dairy queen i whip up a pint, get protein and am satisfied, you can't beat it.
I have the Deluxe with 7 pints coming today. Cant wait
This creami was one of the best things I’ve bought for the kitchen. Ever. I make protein ice cream with killer macros that tastes like the real thing. Halo top and all those macros ice creams completely suck next to this thing. I have 8 pints now.
The one thing I would add to this is that the deluxe is NOT compatible with the standard 16oz pints of the base Creami.
I bought the deluxe because the difference at the time was only about $30 and why not get the version with more features? But I didn't realize that the problem with doing this is that you're locked into a 24oz "deluxe pint" container instead of the standard 16oz "actual pint" pint container. This has a number of issues:
- It takes up extra freezer space (something that is already quite limited for me).
- All the recipes you find online are for 16oz pints, and have to be adjusted by increasing the amounts by 1.5 times. This also means the macros and calories go up by 50% too. Obviously you can just eat less, but if I had the level of self control that would allow me to stop after consuming just half the container I wouldn't be overweight and looking to cut calories in the first place.
- You can just fill it with a normal pint amount (just like you can under-fill the standard creami containers if you want) but then you have a container that's 2/3 full, which feels inefficient and also unfulfilling (it's the same psychological trick where same amount of food on a bigger plate feels like less food)
- The 24oz size is just annoying in addition to recipe issues - it's more than one person should really be eating in a sitting, but also not enough for two people if you both want a pint (plus got to both want same flavor, where having two pints ready to go lets two people pick their poison)
I've actually been seriously considering selling it and replacing with the standard Creami just because of the size difference, which would be a huge upgrade for me in terms of use and value.
Die gleiche Überlegung😅diePints im Gefrierschrank nehmen viel platz ein u mit den kleineren könnte man mehrere verschiedene zubereiten,wenn ich nur einen halben fräse, steht der pink halb im Gefrierschrank u nimmt platz ein, ausserdem wurde immer gesagt 24std, da sind meine manchmal noch nicht fest, bezieht sich wohl auch auf die kleineren, brauchen 1,5 bis 2 Tage u er steht bei -12grad laut Thermometer, mich hatte auch nur das Plastik im Eis abgeschreckt bei den kleineren, bei dem grossen gibt es keine Ersatzteile wie Deckel Messer, komme aus deutschland u hab ihn bei qvc bestellt bin aber auch am überlegen ihn wieder zurück zu schicken
JUST ORDERED THE DELUXE AS IT FINALLY MADE IT TO EUROPE! GETTING IT ON WEDNESDAY!!! Haven't had a CREAMi yet, but if it's as amazing as Ninja's Air-Fryer and 3-1 Blender, that I've both been using almost daily for over a year, this is gonna be one hell of a great investment too!
Even if it dosnt pay for itself theres still a lot of fun playing with it and the fact its like an ultra protine shake
Thank you for the tips! I just got mine and am excited to dive into making recipes. One thing I noticed and I am not sure if someone else already pointed this out but the macros on the Nick's and Halo Top are incorrect. They only track net fiber making it equivalent to a regular ice cream pint.
Even though I was just here trying to gather info, I'm glad it also made me laugh along the way. Very entertaining and enjoyable 👍 Awesome stuff Thank you
I bought the upgraded one and came with 4 pints. Got it on sale at QVC.
I just bought mine this week from QVC...yup got the 4 pints with it. First thing I made was a peach sorbet because I had it in the pantry...AND IT CAME OUT PERFECT!!!
First off: IRON MUSKET & NICK!!!🥳 2nd: I lmao @ you eating ice cream on the treadmill😂 3rd: I’m so happy to hear you eat ice cream year round…. Please never stop making creami recipes….ok, ✌🏼
Thanks for your tips on cleaning it. I found the gunk in the lid impossible to remove. Eventually I became desperate and let it soak in a bowl of draino…. Which worked amazingly. But that’s a last resort 😅
Draino?
@@dannymuffintop yeah I know, Draino to clean the ninja lid, sounds bizarre.
I soaked it in soapy water and shook it. Tried spraying water into the openings. Tried a slender water bottle bristle brush.
Nothing worked. I either bought a new lid or became creative and I got creative! draino dissolved the ice cream remnants that had got stuck and I’ve ALWAYS cleaned it immediately after using since then.
Unfortunately even the version 2 has the same design flaw. Oh well.
Feel like id try vinegar
What if the toxic chemicals are absorbed into the plastic?
Try Soaking it in vinegar @@kellyjohnson4578
I would recommend getting off-brand pints. They are MUCH cheaper and I can't tell a difference after >30 uses. Only thing is that they are slightly more variable regarding weight, so you will have to tara each one when weighing ingredients.
Also experimenting with a bunch of thickeners: If your unfrozen liquid is similar to cream in cosistency, you are more likely to get a nice ice cream consistency on the back end of the process.
Take advantage of other peoples work and research. These days 90% of the pints I make are just my base (low-fat milk, guar gum, xanthan gum, whipping cream stiffener (modified starch), psyllium husks) and two scoops of flavor powder from my favorite brand here in Germany. Whipping up 7 pints for the week takes about 15 minutes this way.
Regarding cleaning the top: I like to use a syringe (same one I use for infusing my meat) to clean the inside. Pure water pressure avoids micro-scratches which would promote residue sticking the next time.
Try out oat fiber! Its less gritty than psillium husks, a good thickener, and tastes great while still adding healthy fiber
@@hjewkes I'll check it out, though I really don't have any complaint about the psyllium husks adding grit. I think my immersion blender and the Creamis process take care of that.
@@AlexusMaximusDE Good to know! I used to get the kind that you mix into water and found didn't love the texture there so just assumed it would be the same in ice cream. I can imagine there is no reason they can't be milled as finely as the oat fiber though
I´ve read online that the knife scraps plastic from the inside of the containers and those tiny scraps ends up in the icecream. Did you experienced that too?
@@jrfraukar Once but only because it didn't freeze flat. When used properly it doesn't scrape the walls at all.
best appliance ive ever purchased. im addicted to it
Kudos friend that was very enlightening.
just saying, you don't have to spend a small fortune for those vanilla extracts, you could and should make your own. It's very feasible with fresh vanilla beans, vodka, raki or tsipouro. I make 3 litres of vanilla extract each year that way.
There's a plethora of youtube videos for additional information, good luck!
I have 6 deluxe cups in the freezer for my workout shakes! I just tried Jako's pumpkin spice! Dope! ❤
Wow! This was a huge endorsement of the machine. I have a compressor model. However, my aunt has health issues and making low calorie high protein treats may be just the thing. Gift giving season is almost here so it may end up in her mailbox.
A fine, no, an excellent video for anyone considering buying one. Superb.
My experience was very different from yours. Clearly if you want to make anything, you have to have ingredients for it. My kitchen already has milk, sweetener, vanilla, and chocolate. That's all I really need for high quality (lite) ice cream although other additions are wonderful when they become feasible for my budget. Also, cleaning is easy for me. We are a family of two and do not require a full pint every day. I bought the deluxe for the extra programs (which I have not yet used), so my recipes are less than capacity, maybe 2/3. Because the machine is not close to overload, ingredients stay where they belong and don't get into other parts of the machine. Easy peasy. I find it to be a wonderful investment. I do agree, though, extra pint containers are a real boon.
great video nick..
i’m glad you did not get the creamy a year earlier like you said, because if you did, we wouldn’t have learned about so many flavors that we can do with the blender and various ways of making an anabolic ice cream
15 pints!!! Boy, you created your own ice cream shop - well done❤
Super helpful, appreciate you!
with the amount that I spend on protein ice-cream and other snacks I think it's time to buy a ninja. thanks for the information about what additional considerations I need to weigh up before buying one. it's half price atm so it seems right.
Does your recipe book have all your ice cream recipes in it? Bc I would buy it for that but if not then I would wait till you made one
15 pints, bro this is hilarious how hooked you got. I look forward to this welcomed problem. Thanks for the video
I would recommend investing in a semi professional ice cream maker machine if you consume that much ice cream. I stopped this year consuming it but for 8 years I made 4lt of ice cream everyday. I still have my ice cream maker machine I bought with 2,5lt of capacity. If you really want something practical I would recommend that but of course ninja creami it's what's now trending. I absolutely love your videos and keep up the good work, you are always entertaining, informative and accurate in everything you do 👍
I have a nice wynter ice cream maker, but for protein ice cream the creami works a lot better since the base gets too solid in the freezer
I believe you. I used to make protein ice cream as well but my ice cream maker machine would churn it and freeze it during the process, I could have ice cream ready or freeze the batch for later. Of course it will depend on quantities you need to make. I made a LOT so I needed a big capacity for my machine. It's the most delicious and refreshing treat for sure 😊
I BOUGHT the Deluxe version also with cup set ..takes a hour filled all of them up and put it in freezer get me going for a month or so ..
yes u have to pay extra for ingredients, just like u saying ya i buy a BRAND NEW oven & now i have to pay for pots & pans to cook with , dont make any sense like DUH ...anyway is GREAT machine & at least u know what is in it & can make it healthiest way u want or not , good to have specially in summer time
Creami pints taste better. Aren't as gummy. Have way better protein for less calories. Infinite flavor options. And taste fresher.
bro you literally had me dying at least 5 times this video xD good shit my dude
Sadly in Brazil one creami is like 10 times the price, outside the currency convertion, so I bought a traditional compressor ice cream machine, hope the recipes works as well
Great job ! Awesome video .
Best investment! I use it every single night since purchased. Gets me my protein goals and my night time dessert still fitting in my macros!
I want to use your recipe but I have the deluxe instead of the regular one. Will you update for the 24oz pints.
i need more info about rpms for the programs andthe texture of de same flavor but diference program or some like that. very good you videos
fumunda... lmao. I just got the 7in1 today mostly for protein based recipes. As another said, the more simple the recipe is how I plan on using it too. Excellent tips for the new user!
Good call on getting 5+ pints!
Keep up the great content!
Your timing is scary perfect, scored one for 120 bucks. Zero regrets.
I used to make my ice cream using a Vitamix blender. It did a terrific job until I added fruit or other ingredients which turned them into puree. The Creami does the job just right for any added ingredients without ruining their texture.
I love your channel you’re going to blow up soon
I´ve read online that the knife scraps plastic from the inside of the containers and those tiny scraps ends up in the icecream. Did you experienced that too?
Omg Halo Top in your country is so crazy CHEAP!! It's $12 a pint in Australia.
Why do you not recommend the models that come with extra containers? Mine came with four.
Whoa, Nicks, a Scandinavian company actually sells their ice cream in the US. Love those, more than most regular ice cream, especially Sea Salt Caramel and Nougat Swirl.
Funny how they sell frozen stuff overseas and I can't buy freaking Monterey Jack anywhere outside of American Week in Lidl that happens like once in 6 months, and last time Jack wasn't even there...
The amount of cheese I can get makes my heart happy. Nicks is great too.
Well sure I can get absolutely insane amounts of cheese too, since there's stuff from around the Europe in every market, and every European country has its own cheese culture but I really damn like Jack , even if its not extraordinary like let's say Gruyere:)
Looking at Nicks US website, and their bars are exactly the same but ice cream flavours are completely different, maybe they are making them in the US after all.
And funny enough, they rounded up calories of ther peanut butter protein bar, it's 190kcal while in reality it's 183kcal ;)
Just saying can’t you take it out of the pint once it’s done and store any extra in something else and then use that pint to make more? Why would you need to store it in the same container? 🤔
Great review, you saved me money actually
what is the proper ratio to substitute milk with none dairy like almond or coconut for example?
Are you familiar with using creami to make acai bowls by any chance??
Bro you are such a rookie.
I have 3 Ninja Creami machines so I don’t have to wait to spin for multiple friends and family at same time.
55 pints
& a medium sized deep freezer specifically purchased for my ninja Creami pints.
Only three, you rock!!!😎
Now THAT'S dedication!
😆😆😆 naw next level.
Im glad i have all those dry items in my cabinet.
Seeing you use one makes me want to buy one so bad I always wanted to make icecream
Could you explain which are the deferences between de standard and the deluxe?
Thanks for the reminder

i love iron muskets edits bro lmaoooo
Is @TheIronMusket doing your editing as well!? Great video!!
I am on my second Creami already. The first one broke due to excess of use, I guess? I was having up to three pints every day, depending on my mood. I wish there was a solution for the noise, though, so we can make icecream after midnight (I live in a small apartment).
Three pints a night is a new record that I have heard!! Absolute beast. Mine is still running perfectly, so I am surprised to hear yours broke. Was it covered under warranty? And how many pints would you say you spun before it broke?
Well, I had more than that, but not frequently, 3 was my "reasonable" limit. But I didn't use protein powder, just yoghurt, maybe some fruit, sucralose. I need to start having them with eggs, need some of the components from the yolk.@@Exercise4CheatMeals
It was under warranty, Amazon refunded me then I bought another of the same. I have no idea how many I whipped, to be honest. I had 12 or 13 pints, I think, now I have about 20 something, I usually make as many as my drawer takes, 11 per time, or less. Sometimes it's all gone after three days. 😬@@Exercise4CheatMeals
They clean well in the dishwasher. Sometimes I use another freezer to make a few extras, if it's hot and I know I'll be having tons of frozen yoghurt.
Even with all that it still pays for itself and it's healthier if you leave out the junk found in almost all store bought stuff which is crazy expensive and mass produced.
All the Chicago t shirts jerseys.. Cole park and the 9 is wit you
I'm seeing the Deluxe for just $180 on Costco right now and it includes 3 pints and lids.
Amazon is selling a 4-pack for like $26
College kid here with no disposable income; can i make ice cream at home without blending in ice into it if i add cold water and whisk it like adam ragusea does? Would that work?
(I dont have a blender that can handle ice blending)
I wish I could help, but I honestly have no idea since I have never tried. I am sure there are other versions which are good, but I highly doubt it can do what the creami is able to do in terms of texture and mouthfeel.
Thank you for sharing this information...
One thing I wish the device did, was to be able to repair a pint of ice cream (in one of those cardboard containers) that got thawed and refrozen. I suppose the only thing I could try is to fully melt one and pour it into the Creamii container? Has anyone salvaged ice cream like this before?
I laughed out loud when i saw your freezer with 15 pints
Always here for a Creami video ❤
The lid is dishwasher safe. You dont need that time consuming cleaning routine, just pop it in the top rack.
Just make the ice cream and transfer it to another container , wash the pint container and reuse!! Simple.
5:32 incredible narration from iron musket
The detail he brings to the video is impeccable.
I got the creami because I am watching my calories for weight loss. My favorite ice cream is Ben n Jerry’s but that shit has too many calories. I always got a pint when I go grocery shopping. Ever since I got the ninja creami, not a single thought of buying Ben n Jerry’s ice cream comes to mind at the store. I’ve been using it daily,making 3 different flavors with the protein powders I have at home. I wanted the creami last year but it was sold out,I’m glad I got it now and can enjoy ice cream and other frozen treats as I’m in a calorie deficit. To me, it’s worth the investment. I’d say buy it,if you plan on actually using it to make your own ice cream or frozen treats.
