I just wanted to take this opportunity to mention, on yet another thread, how much I LOVE my Lello machine!

It is by far the best ice cream machine I have ever used. I have found that I can even take a warm custard and get great results. I run it for 40 minutes and it gets nice and cold and then I let the machine rest for 5-10 minutes and then I run it again for another 40 minutes and it comes out perfectly!
