    I love making Ice Cream with my Ninja Creami. Everything is all fine and dandy until you have used it a few times and it starts to build up grime. If you don't know how to clean it, you can get rottings ice cream in the lid, on the paddle blade, on the shaft, and all sorts of other places. That can not only cause bacteria problems, but your Ninja Creami can really start to stink as well. Check out these tips on how to keep your Ninja Creami nice and clean, the easy way! These tips work on the oringinal Ninja Creami, The Ninja Creami Deluxe, and also the Ninja Creami Breeze.

    Have you ever experienced the stinky dairy thing with your Creami? One quick note: I forgot to mention that if you put your lids in vinegar for cleaning, be sure to remove the rubber gasket in the bottom of the lid first. The vinegar can corrode that.

    The vinegar isn't good idea with the gasket still in place, acid and rubbery stuff don't play well. I get a lot in the lid even though I'm careful to never to go over the max fill line. I make sure hot streaming water goes into the aperture you noted while I somewhat cover the two side weep holes to get more water in the lid compartment before allowing it to drain when rinsing. You can run a full pint of hot water with only 1 drop of soap so that more of the length of the shaft will get rinsed at least. I don't have faith in the casing of the shaft since I occasionally have to use a toothpick to scrape gunk around its circular seam. Love the Creami, hate that I cannot clean the debris I can see in the lid - and I use it about 5 out of the 7 days of the week!

    White vinegar is fine. But if you want professional results you might as well use one of the dairy specific cleaners used in the food industry. They are cheap and do an incredible job. My favorite is five star pbw. You can also use it on sprouting equipment, brewing or fermenting equipment, just about anything. It's a natural alkaline cleaner. There's also Puro dairy cleaner, which is a popular product for coffee shops.

    Thank you so much for this valuable information. I've had my Creami now for about two weeks and make ice cream most every day. So far, cleaning has been easy (but that's only two weeks). One thing I think helps in my kitchen is that I often don't fill it to capacity. Less load makes it easier for the machine to proceed in an orderly fashion without forcing materials into spaces where they don't belong. I can say it is harder to clean when I fill it to the max line. Some days I am grateful that the gasket is removable for cleaning purposes and some days not even that is necessary. Time will tell if my "method" is useful long term or not. I'm also quite interested in running the machine with dish soap in it as you did. I read somewhere that using the milkshake setting for that process is helpful because it is the only setting designed to process liquids. Perhaps you have found that your preferred setting works better. Anyway, whatever problems I encounter with the machine pale in comparison to the beauty and versatility of the delicious daily outcomes. If all else fails, new lid assemblies are available from the Ninja website (provided they are in stock).

      I never have any smells from my Creami. I wipe the metal down piece immediately after every use. I separate the lid components and wash in warm soapy water. QED. I think it's potentially a huge problem to run the machine with water in the pint pot, especially when it's soapy. I can envisage water getting up into the machine.

  • @dystopia-usa
    @dystopia-usa 3 місяці тому +4

    It's super easy to clean. Run a remix cycle of light water/vinegar mix in clean canister contaner after quickly rinsing off lid & blade properly after ice cream creation, & running hot water through main lid hole to clean out the inside really quickly (all those holes in the lid make it easy to flush out). After remix cleaning of main unit blade arm/bit, final-clean clean blade & lid again with some soapy water submersion & flush lid again thoroughly through the main hole near switch with hot running water (with water coming out through all the other holes). Shake lid around wildly after drying to get excess water out through all the holes. Works like a charm, takes about 5 minutes or so, & my unit stays perfectly clean. The outer canister with the handle should never even get dirty if you are halfway careful & just takes a light wipe-down (no need to ever submerge clean it)

    I got some frozen yogurt up in the hole where the drill goes on the deluxe upon it retracting. How do I get that out? And is it dangerous? Will it get out on my next run when the drill goes down you think? It naturally got up there when it was done with my second re-spin that had made the frozen yogurt really creamy, this making some of it go up with the drill. I did try and get a cloth up there, but the gap is just way too small! I've only had my deluxe for a week as it JUST came to Europe. I see crews, but I tdon't wanna take it apart.
