(There is so many things you can do with such a machine. Think about it!) Well, I have run into a problem in that the nitrous oxide bulbs sometimes don't seem to pressurize the cream properly. The whipped cream sort of drools out of the spout. Going against the instructions, I have discharged more than one nitrous oxide capsule into the machine and this solved the problem. All of the capsules that I have seen are imported from Austria or Hungary. I am wondering if the age of the capsules is at fault in that they have leaked some of their gas since they were filled. Other than this problem, this machine makes whipped cream that is much better than the store bought cans, is much cheaper to make(besides the initial investment of the machine), and you can flavor the cream with any number of extracts and liqueurs. I realize that cream can be whipped in a mixer, but I am a nut for gadgits. Jim Griggers NCR Columbia, SC.
