There are banana sorbet and chocolate ice cream in the two ice cream machines. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>In beautiful Munich you have a lot of choice between very many good ice cream parlors and ice cream artists. A very well known <strong>Master of ice cream making is <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballabeni.de\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Giorgio Ballabeni<\/a><\/strong>. He and his team offer in winter <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballabeni.de\/eiskurs.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>ice courses<\/strong><\/a> where you can learn how to make them at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Recently I remembered that we visited one of these ice courses there a few years ago. Four years to be exact and therefore I can unfortunately show you only a few photos. Had I known at the time that I will have times this blog, I would have made of course more photos.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, you can imagine that this is a<strong> very special occasion<\/strong> was. But let's start at the beginning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do I get a seat?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first hurdle was to get a place on an ice course. Because the courses are <strong>much sought-after<\/strong> and you have to <strong>register in good time<\/strong>, to be able to participate in it. We have joined forces with our <strong>Mail address registered<\/strong> and were then informed which <strong>Dates <\/strong>there will be. These were quite far in the future, but of course we immediately<strong> registered<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key data on the Ballabeni ice course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Group size: <strong>8 persons<\/strong> (Status 08\/2022)<\/li><li>costs: <strong>215 Euro per person<\/strong> (Status 08\/2022) <\/li><li>Duration: approx. <strong>3,5 hours<\/strong> (Status 08\/2022)<\/li><li>included are the <strong>Ingredients, drinks<\/strong>, a <strong>Apron<\/strong>, a <strong>Folder with recipes<\/strong> and a signed by Giorgio Ballabeni <strong>Certificate<\/strong><\/li><li>...and the best thing is, you get to do lots of <strong>Ice<\/strong> try<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The course takes place at Seidlstrasse 28 in Munich in the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ballabeni.de\/werkstatt.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>Ice workshop<\/strong><\/a> held. This is a beautiful bright room that has a lot of atmosphere. This is also the location where the new <strong>Ice cream creations for Ballabeni Icecream<\/strong> concocted and tested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The group size is manageable. At the moment there are 8 people. With us, if I remember correctly, there were 12 people. But also our <strong>Group size<\/strong> was in any case still <strong>quite pleasant<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>Price<\/strong> can unfortunately already be called crunchy. But don't let that put you off! I haven't regretted a single cent and you get <strong>really plenty on offer<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each participant also receives a high-quality apron embroidered with their first name. This is really a nice idea and makes it easier to address the various participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The little <strong>Folder <\/strong>Contains information on the <strong>Ice composition <\/strong>and the <strong>Recipes<\/strong> with appropriate calculations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides, you can even use your <strong>bring your own ice cream machine<\/strong>to practice handling with it and get tips. This is a really great offer. For ourselves it was too much schlepperei our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/en\/ice-machines\/nemox-gelatissimo-my-first-ice-maker-with-compressor\/\">Nemox Gelatissimo<\/a> to take with us. We were also very keen to try out a different ice cream machine. Another participant actually brought her own Unold machine and that was also very interesting for the rest of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance of the great master<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Giorgio Ballabeni <\/strong>came into the room and greeted us warmly at first. He told us about his path to ice cream production. What can I say, you just have to like him. A real Italian, proud of his ice cream empire (and rightly so) and you can tell at every moment his <strong>Love of ice cream<\/strong> on. He was also incredibly eager to teach all participants.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First he gave us the <strong>Basics<\/strong> explained what the ideal composition of an ice cream is and how he tests new ice cream creations. It was all very interesting and also not too long, but just right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The ice cream varieties in the course<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Ballabeni-Eiskurs_3.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Ballabeni-Eiskurs_3-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"Mein Mann in der Eiswerkstatt.

Giorgio Ballabeni is explaining something about the current ice cream variety in the background.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Then it got exciting, because we learned <strong>What ice cream varieties<\/strong> we would do today in the course:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li><strong>Chocolate ice cream<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Espresso latte ice cream<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Hazelnut ice cream<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Yoghurt ice cream<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Banana sorbet<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>If you want, I'll take <strong>Ice cream recipes<\/strong> to this gradually include in my ice cream blog. Many of them are with egg yolk and that was me for a long time a little too elaborate and too tricky. Meanwhile, I have the knack, but I still often rather make ice cream without egg. In the ice cream course we have <strong>pasteurised egg yolk<\/strong> used from the Tetra Pak. This, of course, makes the preparation much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At<strong> every type of ice cream <\/strong>was allowed <strong>one of the participants to the master at hand<\/strong> go. We learned an incredible amount of interesting facts about the processes, details about the varieties and there were also tips about the ingredients or possible variations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For the <strong>Espresso Ice Cream<\/strong> very many cups of espresso had to be made. Again, one of the participants was allowed to try his hand at this. He was first introduced to the art of making espresso. Finally, after a few practice cups, the manufactured espresso was also quite passable for the taste of Giorgio Ballabeni \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the <strong>Banana sorbet<\/strong> we got the tip to scrape off the outermost layer of the bananas after peeling, so that the ice cream is finer. And I must say, I have never eaten such a delicious banana sorbet. I now also do this for my <a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/en\/recipes\/creamy-banana-ice-cream-self-made\/\" data-type=\"post\" data-id=\"684\">Milk ice cream with banana<\/a>because then it tastes finer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All types of ice cream were exceptionally good and very easy to make. Unfortunately, after a short time we were already incredibly full of all the ice cream. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Comparison of two different ice cream machines<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-medium\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Ballabeni-Eiskurs_2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"512\" height=\"384\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.eis-macher.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Ballabeni-Eiskurs_2-512x384.jpg\" alt=\"Jede Menge fertiges Eis in den verschiedenen Eismaschinen.

Unfortunately, I can no longer remember the exact model. But those who know the company, know that it is a very good machine, which is in the middle price segment. The really interesting thing was, <strong>the same ice cream mass from two different ice cream machines<\/strong> to be able to compare them directly with each other. And believe it or not, there is a tangible difference. It's not that one machine outperformed the other. But the ice cream from the Ballabeni ice cream machines was still a tad creamier, because much more air was whipped in.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The conclusion<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the end each participant gets a <strong>Certificate<\/strong> with a golden emblem. In addition, we were also allowed to <strong>other ice cream varieties<\/strong> from the Ballabeni assortment or the ice cream workshop <strong>try<\/strong>.
