Does the Crofton Ice Cream maker from Aldi work for anybody else?

I just bought the Crofton Ice Cream maker yesterday and I froze it for 9 hours and churned my ingredients for 40 minutes. I was looking forward to the nicest most creamiest yummiest homemade ice cream ever, only to find a container of the same liquid (plus some froth) sitting in the bowl. What did I do wrong?
Yes, I froze the inner bowl for 9 hours. I churned it for 40 min. because it wasn’t frozen at 20 or 30 min and the directions said to do it for a max of 40. No luck. I had the bowl freezing on the bottom shelf of my freezer, so in the event that it didn’t get cold enough, I put it at the top and will tray again later.

homemade ice cream question?

I’m making homemade ice cream, it was a spur of the moment plan. The mixture is in the refridgerator cooling off so it will be cold when I put it into the ice cream maker. It’s taking a very long time to cool off and I wondered what would happen if I put the mix into the ice cream maker while it was still warm?
This is the recipe I’m using.

I’m curious what would happen if I left out the 4-8 hour cooling period.

Homemade ice cream in a bag doesn't freeze?

This afternoon, i came across some recipes to make some homemade ice cream and as i did not have an ice cream maker i used the bag method. Also i did not have any ziplock bags so i used small bags. Actually i used a small plastic container at first but then it didnt work so i changed it to another plastic bag.

I put 1/2 a cup of whole milk, a tablespoon of condensed milk, 1/4 cup of sugar, a little vanilla. then i put like enough ice to cover the bottom of the bag twice over and put quite a bit of salt but i started like tossing the bag around but the ice cream didnt form after like half an hour?

Is this because it was too little ice or maybe i didnt shake it hard enough?

thanks.
the ice didnt cover the whole plastic bag, only about 1/4 of it.

homemade ice cream help?

i just got my first ice cream maker. i remember as a child my mother always made homemade ice cream and it was so good. so since my husband loves ice cream so much (he eat 1.5 gal per week) i decided to get him one for fathers day. it is a 2 quart cuisinart fully automatic.
it came with a booklet with recipes but doesnt tell you at all on how to make fat free or low fat ice cream. i dont want frozen yogurt. the recipe that it has for simple vanilla ice cream use milk, heavy cream, and sugar.
i already figure i can use less sugar than what it calls for.
but here are my questions.

can i use fat free milk for the milk portion of it?

also, when it calls for heavy cream can i use light cream instead or is there something better??
