Soft-serve ice cream in the afternoon, an iced coffee on a weekend morning, or a fruit slushie for a get-together with friends— the DSP KJ3087 lets you make more than one of your favorite desserts at home. This frozen beverage and soft-serve ice cream maker chills and mixes the poured mixture on its own, so you don’t need ice cubes. Choose one of seven programs, adjust the consistency to your taste, and serve straight from the machine.
Soft-serve ice cream for your at-home dessert menu
A serving of soft-serve ice cream in a waffle cone or cup can become both a family weekend tradition and a birthday treat. The dedicated “Soft Ice Cream” program is designed for making ice cream from a suitable liquid mixture, and the silicone dispensing nozzle makes serving it a breeze.
Vary the flavors of your mixes, and top your ice cream with your favorite sauce, berries, or sprinkles. The same machine will let you choose a completely different dessert next time—from a milkshake to a refreshing frozen juice drink.
Seven programs for different tastes
Coffee, juice, and milk-based drinks require different preparation settings. Seven preset programs make it easy to choose: simply select what you want to prepare on the control panel.
- “Soft Ice Cream” – for soft-serve ice cream;
- “Slush” – for refreshing drinks made with ice crystals;
- “Spiked Slush” – for frozen alcoholic cocktails;
- “Milkshake” – for milkshakes;
- “Frappé” – for iced coffee drinks;
- “Frozen Juice” – for frozen juice drinks;
- “Cold Drinks” – for cooling beverages.
This machine comes in handy whether you’re making a dessert for the kids, serving coffee drinks after lunch, or preparing cocktails for an adults-only evening.
It cools on its own—no extra ice is needed
The integrated compressor-based cooling system cools the mixture, while a rotating screw continuously stirs it. There’s no need to stockpile ice cubes in the freezer or crush them before preparing a drink. The mixture is chilled directly, so it isn’t diluted by added ice.
It usually takes about 15–60 minutes to prepare a drink, depending on the ingredients, the amount, and the initial temperature. Chilling the mixture beforehand helps speed up the process.
Consistency to suit your taste
Some people prefer a lighter, chilled drink, while others prefer a thicker consistency that can be eaten with a spoon. The adjustable temperature allows you to modify the settings of your chosen program and tailor the result to the mixture you’re preparing and your personal taste.
In the transparent container, you can see how the texture changes. Once the set temperature is reached, the appliance alerts you with an audible signal and a message on the screen, so you don’t have to keep checking to see if it’s ready to serve.
Several servings in one cooking session
You can pour up to 1.8 liters of the mixture into the machine, so you can prepare drinks for your family or guests all at once. This is convenient for a birthday party, a dinner with friends, or a warm afternoon on the patio, when you want to serve drinks to everyone without having to prepare each serving individually.
To pour the drink, simply pull the handle on the front—there’s no need to lift the container or pour over the edge. A tray located beneath the dispensing opening catches any drips, and the transparent sides make it easy to see how much mixture is left.
Serve the prepared drink in individual portions
Once the appliance reaches the set temperature, it maintains it, so you don’t have to pour the entire drink at once. You can fill a few glasses and serve the rest later—which is convenient when entertaining family or guests.
Removable parts for easier cleaning
After you’re done enjoying your drink, the “Rinse” program helps remove any remaining mixture: it circulates water without turning on the cooling system. You can then remove the bowl, the mixing auger, and the drip tray and wash them separately. This makes it easier to reach the areas that come into contact with the beverage and prepare the machine for its next use.
Important Considerations When Choosing Ingredients
The machine is designed for liquid mixtures. The mixture being chilled must contain at least 4% sugar —sweeteners alone are not sufficient. The alcohol content of the final mixture used for the “Spiked Slush” program must be between 2.8% and 16%. Do not pour in hot ingredients or add ice cubes, fruit pieces, frozen fruit, or pre-made ice cream.
