Making Cola Slush and Ice Cream with an Automatic Ice Cream Maker: A Practical Function Test
2026-01-14 11:42:28
An ice cream maker is often introduced through specifications and feature lists. However, in real applications, what matters more is how the machine actually performs when it is used.
In this article, the Sunsir team shares a practical test using an automatic semi-conductor ice cream maker. Instead of focusing on technical parameters, we tested the machine through two simple and familiar applications: making cola slush and making ice cream. These tests were designed to verify real functionality, especially cooling performance, stirring stability, and usability—without pre-freezing and without manual intervention.
Why We Chose Cola Slush and Ice Cream for This Test
When testing an ice cream maker machine, choosing the right applications is important. The goal was not to develop recipes, but to observe how the machine performs under realistic and repeatable conditions.
Cola was selected because it is easy to obtain and widely recognized. It also provides a clear visual indicator of cooling efficiency. If a common beverage can be turned into a stable slush texture, the cooling response and mixing performance of the ice cream maker become immediately apparent.
Ice cream represents the core function of any ice cream maker. Producing ice cream requires continuous cooling, stable temperature control, and consistent stirring over time. By testing both cola slush and ice cream, we were able to evaluate flexibility and core performance using the same home ice cream maker.
Understanding the Control Panel Before Use
This automatic ice cream maker is operated through a touch control panel. All options are displayed directly on the panel, allowing users to select a function and start the process with minimal steps and almost no learning time.
Main Touch Buttons
Start / Cancel Used to start the selected function or cancel the current operation.
Function / Select Used to switch between different working modes shown on the panel.
Function Options on the Panel
Each option corresponds to a preset program. No additional parameter adjustment is required.
Ice Cream For making ice cream. The machine cools and stirs automatically to produce soft ice cream.
Yogurt For yogurt fermentation. Maintains a stable temperature suitable for fermentation.
Milkshake For milkshake-style drinks and blended beverages.
Jelly For making jelly-based desserts.
Herbal Jelly Suitable for traditional herbal jelly preparation.
Red Bean Ice For icy desserts such as red bean ice or similar textures.
Rice Wine For fermenting rice wine.
Natto For natto fermentation, maintaining a warm and stable environment.
Cooling Used to keep the contents cold after a process is completed.
Once a function is selected, the machine operates automatically, reducing the need for manual control and making the operation straightforward and intuitive.
Test 1: Making Cola Slush Without Pre-Freezing
One common question from customers is whether this ice cream maker can make slush drinks. To answer this, we conducted a simple test using cola.
The process was straightforward. Regular cola was poured directly into the container. No pre-freezing was required, and no special preparation was needed. We selected the ice cream function, as it provides both cooling and automatic stirring.
During operation, the machine handled the entire process independently. No manual stirring or adjustment was necessary. After approximately one hour, the liquid gradually transformed into a slush texture. The final result was a fine, snow-like consistency rather than large ice chunks.
This test demonstrated that the machine’s semi-conductor cooling system responds quickly and works continuously. Although cola was used for testing, the same method can be applied to many other beverages, showing the flexibility of this ice cream maker.
Test 2: Making Ice Cream with Ready-Made Mix
For the ice cream test, a ready-made ice cream mix was used. This choice was made because multiple machines were being tested simultaneously, and a standardized mixture helped ensure consistent results.
The mix was prepared according to the recommended ratio and poured into the machine. The container of this ice cream maker machine is not detachable, which is part of its structural design. However, a bottom handle is included, allowing the unit to be lifted and cleaned more conveniently after use.
Once the ice cream function was started, the process required no further intervention. After a little over one hour, the mixture began to expand and develop a light, airy texture. By the end of the cycle, the ice cream reached a soft-serve consistency and was ready for direct consumption.
If additional cooling or holding is required, users can switch to cooling or insulation modes after the main cycle, offering flexibility for different usage scenarios.
What These Tests Tell Us About This Automatic Semi-Conductor Ice Cream Maker
Based on repeated testing, several conclusions can be drawn.
First, the absence of pre-freezing significantly improves usability. The machine can be started immediately, reducing preparation time and simplifying the workflow.
Second, the semi-conductor cooling system provides stable and consistent performance. This is especially evident in applications that require continuous stirring and steady temperature control.
Third, the multi-function design is practical. Functions such as ice cream, slush, and fermentation are not independent features, but share the same core system effectively.
Finally, operation remains simple and intuitive. The machine does not rely on complex settings, making it suitable for repeated use in testing and daily applications.
Practical Feedback and Ongoing Use
So far, this automatic ice cream maker has received positive feedback during internal testing and early market use. The machine has been used repeatedly for different applications rather than serving as a one-time demonstration unit.
From a development perspective, stability and consistency are particularly important. These qualities are essential for products intended for long-term use or OEM/ODM customization. At Sunsir, many products, including this ice cream maker, are designed and developed in-house, ensuring that functional reliability remains the foundation of every project.
Conclusion
This article presents a practical look at how an automatic semi-conductor ice cream maker performs in real use. By testing simple applications such as cola slush and ice cream, we aimed to demonstrate actual functionality rather than theoretical descriptions.
For those exploring ice cream maker solutions or evaluating functional possibilities, this real-world perspective may offer useful insight. Additional tests and applications are continuously being explored by the Sunsir team.
