    There’s something called blast freezer, which is basically a freezer with fans inside, like what convection ovens have. It cools down food much faster than a standard freezer.

        The pacojet is way expensive, also, the pacojet patents runned off and now there exists way cheaper alternatives that work in the same way. Check out the NinjaCream.

            Why? Not challenging, just wondering what the pacojet does that other machines can’t

              Just reading a quick review of the Ninja Creamy, the Pacojet can run without putting chunks of plastic in your ice cream.

              “In early 2023, a moderator in the Ninja Creami Community Facebook group introduced a new rule: No more posts about the plastic issue, lest they clog up the group.”

        I just looked at the website for the pacojet since I’d never heard of it: legit the most patronising website I’ve ever seen in my life

        Check out the Ninja Creamie for something almost exactly like the Pacojet but much more affordable.
