It should only take about half an hour for your ice cream or sorbet to be done, but it could take up to 45 minutes.

If you’re using skin, soak it in cold water for 30 minutes first, then open it up with a jet of water. Put your chosen nozzle under a running tap and pull the skin onto the nozzle.
-
Switch off and unclog the bowl.
