  • Ice Cream Stabilizers: Xanthan Gum is the first video about a single stabiliser.
    First off, excuse the naff setting for the video as we are in an AirBnB and not here for very long. Also, all my stuff is currently on a big ship sailing across the Atlantic.
    Xanthan gum is a great stand alone start to using stabilizers in your ice cream, it's really easy to use, hydrates in cold liquids and produces a decent result. As time goes on, your realise there are much better combos though so stay tuned and don't forget to like and subscribe.

      Welcome to the channel of ice cream! If you want to add Xanthan gum to any recipe, you’ll need to mix it with the recipes sugars. As that recipe is using condensed milk as the sugar source, you will need to mix the Xanthan gum with 1tsp of sugar, add that to the other ingredients and stir/mix very well.

    Great information!
    Any point to use Xanthan gum in combination with ice cream custard base? (egg yolks as emulsifier/stabilizer)

    • @PolarIceCreamery
      @PolarIceCreamery  Рік тому +1

      Egg yolks are a better emulsifier than they are stabilizer but they do the job to a degree. If you’re making custard based ice creams I’d use a different stabilizer such as a Guar/LBG mix. I’ll be talking about those n detail in the next few weeks 👍

    • @PolarIceCreamery
      @PolarIceCreamery  3 місяці тому

      The custard finish is different to a Xanthan finish. Custard would be smoother and richer but eggs do not stabilize as well as a dedicated stabilizer. They are more emulsifiers than stabilizers. Eggs are also expensive, there’s a lot of waste (white) and generally they are not required anymore.

    @babakk.8166 Рік тому

    Interesting, what you said about not adding it to a hot mix. What do you consider too hot?
    I use a combo of CMC and Xanthan for sorbets and I always heat up the water to around 65 to ensure proper hydration of all the powders. But maybe that's not necessary? Also the churned result right out of the machine feels a bit foamy when melting on the tongue, which turns out ok after a few hours in the freezer.

    • @PolarIceCreamery
      @PolarIceCreamery  Рік тому

      Both CMC and Xanthan are cold hydrating powders. You can add them to 10g of sugar and mix in to a cold liquid. No need to heat at all.
      I’d say your numbers are off if you’re getting a foam texture in the churn.

    • @babakk.8166
      @babakk.8166 Рік тому

      Thanks for the response. One of the reasons for the heat is that I'm hoping to skip the aging process, which I'm sure is not recommended. As for the numbers, for 1175g of liquid I use 1.5g CMC and 0.75 Xanthan. I also use inulin. I guess I gotta play around with it.

    • @PolarIceCreamery
      @PolarIceCreamery  Рік тому

      @@babakk.8166 yeah the aging process is about the infusion of flavour and settling of fat and protein. The composition of milk and cream will dictate the stabilizer but are you using inulin as the only “sugar” source?

    • @babakk.8166
      @babakk.8166 Рік тому

      This is basically for a lime sorbet I'm trying to perfect. I've worked on it for quite a while to get a decent "creamy" texture and as close to the Italian standards as possible. I'm using sugar, dextrose, and dry glucose DE42, and the stabilizers mentioned above. It wasn't great until I added Inulin which I guess is helping to add body, being a fiber. I just haven't figured out that foam feeling on the tongue when it comes out of the machine (at about -6). I wonder if using cool water will help. Or maybe less Inulin cause I've heard it can make it stretchy or stringy.
      Looking forward or more stabilizer videos :)

    • @PolarIceCreamery
      @PolarIceCreamery  Рік тому

      @@babakk.8166 honestly....I think you are over complicating the recipe for a sorbet. I've made dozens since my raspberry sorbet and all of them have been super simple and the results are amazing. Only yesterday did I have a sorbet from a local shop which is highly recommended, their sorbet was the same as mine. You're using 3 sugars + inulin and I would just use pectin. I don't know your full recipe so am only guessing but id say the inulin + stabilizers etc are whipping your base.

    Hey mate, love your videos. Could use your help abit. I have a 10kg acai mix which is gluten free and vegan free that i am about to serve in a soft serve machine. The instructions are is to defrost acai mix completely that i purchase frozen, then pour into a soft serve hopper and just in a few minutes the soft serve acai is ready to be served. My problem is that the product comes out too icy and texture is not smooth. I want to use the xantham gum to improve texture and completely get rid of the ice crystals but not sure how to go about it. Do i follow your % ratio to my mix, how do i mix it without avoid lumps (do i need to mix it in water first?) When mixed Will the acai start thickening as it sits in the hopper/cylinder? Would really appreciate your feedback

    • @johnnykhatari9706
