my parents had a similar ice cream maker back in the 1970s. In the summertime my sister and I would sit on the back step and take turns cranking the handle and topping up the ice and salt. It was a tiring job and the only thing that motivated us to keep going (30-40 minutes of hard out churning) was the promise of yummy pineapple ice cream at the end of it all. The ice cream was delicious so it was well worth the effort!
When this RCW Frost King ice cream maker came up for sale recently on Trademe (our local equivalent to ebay) I couldn't resist buying this for my family to try out. Of course I'll be trying my best to replicate our family recipe. I recall that it included a can of Highlander condensced milk, cream, a can of drained crushed pineapple although I don't have any exact measurements. It'll be a process of trial and error. I'll let you know how it goes.
