During this lab we made Ice Cream! Our essential question was, What are the phase changes when making Ice Cream? and How can I make Ice Cream?
Overall, this experiment was a success. We followed instructions and made some very good natural ice cream. We used an ice cream maker to make it. The reason that the ice cream maker was so helpful is because it turns the cream, milk, and sugar, freezing it, while infusing it with very small air bubbles. That is what gives the ice cream such a unique texture. When we finished making the ice cream we got some great feedback on how good it tasted.
I think that I performed fairly good during this experiment. The only thing that we as a group struggled with is bringing in our supplies. Since none of us could go to to the store to get the ingredients, we had to walk to Von's during school hours so that took some of our work time. In the end we still had time to finish the experiment. Next time, we will make sure that doesn't happen.
I worked with Lydia and Savreen for this lab. Since I haven't worked with either of them on any projects yet it was a new experiment. They were great to work with and I think we all collaborated well, taking turns on things and staying on task.
If I could redo this experiment, I would make sure I had all the ingredients before school, also I would try to contribute a little more when bringing in supplies. If I went further into the experiment, I would try new flavors that are a little more complicated. I would also try making it in a bag, and see how different in turns out in taste and texture compared to the ice cream maker.
Some skills that I learned is obviously, how to make ice cream. Also, how making something and different way can change the way it tastes as well as the texture.
