ISI Gourmet Whip-Quart, Brushed Stainless Steel



Best item in my kitchen! Even the kids love to use it!
I love this iSi creamer! I won it at a silent auction and use it two or three times a week. This stainless product whips and keeps organic heavy cream under refrigeration for up to 6 WEEKS ~ though mine is empty every two weeks. This product comes with "cake decorating tips" that easily attach to the nozzle. I can make a salmon mousse and pipe it onto crackers, add a sprig of dill and serve a beautiful appetizer in under 15 minutes! You will need to buy a box of O2 chargers. You will need two chargers per one quart of mass. I most always have organic cream in my charger ~ pumpkin pie is always on tap at our house! I can fill my iSi, take it along in the car and create upon my arrival. No more sliding food on my car floor! I use this item almost as often as my coffee maker! It breaks down into four separate pieces; three of which are top rack dishwasher safe and the stainless container fits nicely on the lower rack, though all are easily hand washable. Enjoy!

Whip it good
ISI Gourmet Whip-Quart, Brushed Stainless Steel
I first read about this whip on [...] where they used the whip to infuse booze with fruits, herbs and spices. Of course it makes great whipped cream, which you can enhance by adding a liqueur. The other use is to put, for example, orange zest and vodka into the whip, screw in an N20 charger, iSi N2O Cream Chargers, 24-Packshake it for a minute, then unscrew and put in another charger. Let it sit for a couple of minutes and then vent the gas. Pour off the liquid through a tea strainer and voila! - your friends will be amazed with your now-infused alcohol for custom cocktails. Love this product!

Well constructed
Everything is heavy duty and works as designed. I would recommend it to anybody that wants longevity in a product.

iSi Cream Whipper 1 Pint Easy Whip White 6670



A holiday delight
I use this gadget all through the year, but at holiday time, it gets a workout with all that pumpkin pie and hot cocoa to name but a couple of things that beg for whipped cream. It's so easy to use--just pour in the cream, add a spoonful of powdered sugar to sweeten and replace the top. Shake a few times to distribute the sugar, then screw in an N2O cartridge in the included holder until the contents are released into the container. Shake a few more times, remove the charger and replace with the 'squirter' nozzle and there you are. You can take the whipped cream right along with the pie to someone else's house, ready to use. It transports well. It stores in the fridge for longer than you'd think--a couple of weeks, although who can go that long without using it up ;) and if you don't have time to wash out the container right away, just leave it in the fridge till you do. For some reason the dregs don't seem to sour in there.

Clean up is easy--in fact I find it easier...

Fantastic
I have been using this for some time now. You can really customize your whipped cream. I even made chocolate whipped cream. I find it works better if you only fill it up about 3/4 of the way with cream. It just seems to be more whipped and lighter that way.

HANDY INSTANT WHIPPED CREAM
This is handy to have when you have unexpected guests, also great for a single person or a family. The cream keeps fresh for a long time, possibly at least two weeks, if you haven't scoffed it all by then! It's great piped on the top of your coffee, cocoa or desserts and in scones with jam.

I bought the cream color iSi Whipper and I like it. There's always quite a lot of cream still left inside when the gas is gone, which is OK. I scoop it out with a silicone spatula with a small enough head to fit inside. It always tastes good right to the very end. After hand washing it, I soak it in water with a couple of teaspoons of baking soda, to get rid of the cream smell, it works very quilckly.

You don't get any chargers with this, I bought these at the same time as the whipper.

I'm really glad I purchased this. Before I had to use up the cream...

iSi Coffee Cream Whipper-1 Pint, White



Wouldn't be without this handy item
I bought one of these iSi cream dispensers about 20 years ago. Have never had a problem with it and have not worried about cream spoilage (and waste) since. The charged canister of cream lasts and lasts in the refrigerator. Very easy to use. After a quick shake, just invert, point the affixed nozzle, and pull the lever (test in the sink first to be sure its not liquid because it will splatter). The more its shaken, the thicker the cream will be. The only caution is to not shake it too much before use or you'll make butter instead of whip cream. Cleaning is a breeze; but, does require a toothpick to clean out the small holes. And, of course, release all the pressure before opening to clean. My difficulty now is obtaining the chargers due to shipping restrictions. Can't believe no one else has reviewed this item.

ISI WHIP CREAM MAKER
We have had one of the ISI Whip Cream Makers also for 20 years and there is nothing else like it. We have given them away as house warming gifts repeatedly and they are well appreciated. Some friends have purchased poor imitations that last only a couple of years and cost them just as much. It is one of those things you think you "Why would I want one?" and after you own one you think "Why did I not have one of these before". Not only does it make great whipped cream, it impresses the hell out of your guests.

iSi Coffee Cream Whipper - 1 pint
This is the second iSi whip cream maker that I purchased, and I couldn't be happier. If you love home-made whip cream, then this item is for you. Just add heavy cream and powdered sugar, and charge the unit. The whipping cream will last for a few weeks in the refrigerator, but I guarantee you will use it all before then.

iSi One Pint Dessert Whip, White



Excellent Product!!
I love this product! I use it all the time.

Best parts:
A- I know it's fresh, and hasn't been sitting on the shelf for who knows how long already.
B- I know what's in it (i.e. no sugar).
C- I can flavor it any way I like.
D- It's way cheaper than buying it pre-whipped.
E- I don't have to get the electric mixer dirty.

The only part that I'm not crazy about is cleaning it... but a good bottle brush and some hot soapy water take care of it nicely.

Excellent Product!
This product is just the thing for special occasions. It allows you to make the whip cream way ahead of time (even days if you want) and not have to worry about at dinnertime or after. Because it is under pressure, your cream stays fresher longer. Also, it is especially great for those who would like to have whip cream today and later in the week. It does not loose its volume and turn to soup like if you were to whip it in a mixer and use it a day later. The only problem I have is not having enough for a large group. Thankfully it is so easy to make, sometimes I will make it again when the first batch is gone. This takes all of about a min. or so to do. Warning: Be on the look-out for the CO2 cartridges at your local stores because they can really range in price. Usually specialty cooking stores carry it but it is not the best buy there as a general rule. Always keep enough on hand because it's usually a holiday when I realize I am out (stores aren't open!)

Good Luck and...

Great Whipper!
I had worked in restaurant years ago that used this type of appliance for putting whipped cream on their desserts, and was always impressed with how easy it was to get a great tasting, elegant looking mound of "real" whipped cream, as opposed to making it in a hit and miss attempts with a chilled bowl, and a hand mixer at home.

I wasn't disappointed in the iSi's ability to duplicate that memory. It worked perfectly, and was able to produce real whipped cream for considerably less than a comparable amount of "fake" whipped cream from a frozen tub.

While once you have put your cream mixture into the unit, and pressurized it with the cartridge you need to use it all before it spoils ( at least 10 days with fresh ingredients ), and before you can re-open the pressurized unit, with as good as it tasted, that shouldn't be hard.

It's now been a couple months since I purchased the iSi whipped cream maker, and while I am still happy with the unit, I can't say...
