How long do you soak in cold water and squeeze before putting in the freezer? What are the instructions to activate before freezing?

We followed manufacturer's instructions. Softened & dried and the next day ice packs were placed in subzero freezer for approx 3 days because we transported frozen soft serve sherbet from Dayton OH to Boston in a used Omaha Steak Styrofoam cooler. 16 hr. drive & Techni Ice was still frozen!

I did soak them in WARM water. About 15 min. Then dry them with the towel and put them in the freezer.

Submerge in warm water;knead with fingers to help push air from cells as they expand. Warm water if cells don't completely expand and continue to massage. Dry before freezing to prevent sticking to other objecls or ice.

I was told that after you melt it down, using a double boiler method, you must let it cool in the freezer for 10 or 12 minutes. Take out and using a hand blender whip it. From what I was made to understand, it takes a little while of blending. Thinking of whipping mine.

Hi Kathryn! There is an online eguide with instructions, but be sure that the purée is cooled before pouring it or putting the lid on (the steam can create the ice crystals), make sure it's not filled too full by smoothing over the top with a silicone spatula (overfilling won't allow the lid to close fully, and store in tray for no more than two weeks. Here's the link to the instructions guide from the manufacturer. http://www.mumiandbubi.co.nz/recipeguide.htmI've had great luck with my trays (& using these tricks!). Hope that helps!

What works best for me is to cover the packages (cut to the size you want) with cold water. I let the packs soak for aboot 15 mins. and then knead the packs while in the water. This will remove all of the trapped air. Then let them soak for another 10 mins. Place the packs in the freezer until completely frozen.

The time to cook depends on which type you want (hard or soft) - that determines how much water you put in before starting. Then wait to hear alarm go off when done. Put in cold water with a few ice cubes right away for a short time which makes peeling much easier. Perfect!

You have to use a lithium battery. In refer about a year. In freezer about 4 to 6 months.

Just ice from your freezer works great. Helps to have all your ingredients in the fridge so they dont melt the ice. If not thick enough add a bit more ice.

I haven't done it, but my best guess is you shouldn't freeze it. The plastic is very hard and inflexible, and freezing water expands. Having said that, I should add that I've dropped mine (full and empty) several times onto hard surfaces without damage.

I kept mine in the freezer until I was ready to use them. That worked well.

I put mine in the freezer right after I clean it and it stays in there until I use it next time. I haven't had any problems.

Check the temperature of the freezer. It needs to be well below freezing before the ice maker will work. Around 0 to 10 degrees F.

Pour your juice into a jar and set it in the freezer while you do the clean up! :) Gives it a nice extra chill in those few minutes!

Put it in the freezer at least 30 minutes to a few hours. I put it in a Ziploc bag.

I stored mine in the freezer for about a week before I used it, but only because I wasn't ready to use it right away. Before that it lived on my counter for a few days, but still worked awesome. Sorry this isn't a more straight forward answer!

You're fine. I must have missed that in my instructions. I put mine directly into the freezer and have had no issues. As a matter of fact, as I go thru the summer, the thing lives in the freezer so I can make Italian ice or sorbet any time I want.

Heat you stick it in the microwave. I like mine pretty hot so I do a minute thirty then kinda squish it up and flip it over (I fold it so the tray can rotate properly) and repeat for another minute thirty. To make it cold just put it in the freezer for really cold or the vridge for a nice less cold cold. That way it doesn't get wet. Although in the microwave, while it's very new it will release some humidity and likewise the scent will come out more with the heat.
