Can I store ice cream in the frezer without harming the ceramic coting?

The word is coating, not coting. I have never tried this but I suppose you could. If you are afraid something might happen to it just take it out of the freezer and temper it in two stages:1. transfer it to your fridge first2. leave it there for 1 half hour to one hour, preferably the latter.3. remove from fridge and let it reach room temperature before using in stove or oven.Regards,Rufus Velvet

That's probably ok. I ended up ruining mine be repeatedly heating it without anything in it (I kept getting the burner knobs mixed up). Eventually the enamel coating popped off the iron core. So there is some temperature sensitivity in the enamel coating. Granted, I was stupid. I should have been more careful. :(

Yes to freezer safe. It's not a great nest. It's more like a hybrid between nest and stack.

Yes you can. Just keep it cold or refrigerated before u use it in ur play because it melts. And I recommend you use Pam baking spray on the mold to take it out easier.

I will agree with that no. If you add ice, you will not have room for anything else. You might try a small bit of dry ice. But that is a little overdoing it. To keep things really cold with dry ice try a cardboard box.

I don't see why you couldn't, but they are huge (you can put large chunks of animal in them). You would probably still want to heat seal for long term storage to avoid possible freezer burn.

I don't add my mix-ins till its done. Because I don't want to damage the Patel or motor. Makes very good ice cream.

I have never thought about that! I imagine you could... you would have to let it melt somewhat first. The insert is basically an ice cream "maker". It could work that way, but definitely let it get pretty soft.

yes. If you hear swishing around in there, it's not cold enough. Leave it in the freezer for at least 24 hrs. It takes a while.

My lid has sunken and takes the frosting off. Unless it can be stored flat, without anything on top, this will happen.

I believe the idea is to create a scoby hotel for storage, can't guarantee the procedure as I haven't done it but you keep enough of the liquid from the last batch to cover the scoby and I believe store in and air tight jar, no metal or plastic of course. Never freeze you will kill your scoby but try looking up scoby hotel and should find more info.

No, i don't think its a silly question at all... but to answer your question... No, i don't believe it can. It has a tiny little freezer section in the top corner but that only freezes enough to make ice. If you were to put ice cream in either frig or freezer it might stay really cold and formed but it will become very very soft like it was slowly melting or something. but ice cream bars seem to stay frozen in the freezer part (bars like ice cream snickers or just regular candy bars,butter,ice) things of that nature.Well, i hope i was of some help to you with this reply. Feel free to ask anything else you need to know about my experince with this purchase. I'm happy to help. No, i don't think its a silly question at all... but to answer your question...

Answer: YES. From the package instructions: "Transfer ice cream to a freezer-safe container and freeze, or serve straight from the Canister. Lid and Lid Cap are included for the option of storing the Canister in the freezer."

No I never have. I basically use them for toting groceries. So I can keep ice cream or frozen veg etc from starting to thaw. There is silver insulation on the inside and it holds quite a bit. I love mine!

If I'm packing can soda's I'd use loose ice. If it's sandwiches andfried chicken I'd use packs. I usually put an ice cream bucket withice from my refrig.

I'd say yes. We only freeze ours laying on their sides - but remember not to fill it too full. They always expand a bit when they freeze, and that could probably pop open the lid of you overfill it.

I am not sure about the freezer or freezer to oven use as I have not used it this way. The lid is NOT air tight. It fits inside the glass dish too. It does not have a cove cover. It will smash into the top layer of your food item as it sits inside about 1/4 of an inch or so.

You could probably use dry ice to freeze it but I would keep a barrier like a towel between the dry ice and the plastic. Dry ice has a surface temp of minus 109 fare height, it might cause the container to become brittle. If you have dry ice you might forgo the blue ice.
