My wife uses Land-o-Lakes heavy whipping cream. Which has 3.5 grams sat fat per tablespoon, 17% DV.

Hi Shirley Kay, sorry I did not got a chance to answer your question right away. Actual I bought it for a friend gift.

I use the regular heavy whipping cream from Safeway or Trader Joes, and the iSi works fine.

I Googled "thickened cream" and apparently it is cream thickened with Buttermilk. However, every definition I found said that heavy whipping cream could be substituted for the thickened cream. I've only ever used regular heavy whipping cream and have never had a problem with it.

The cream is more like heavy whipping cream so it would depend on the recipe but I do use it a lot. Just keep in mind it has more fat and almost no water.

I didn't try with this. But u can use clear unflavored gelatin to stabilize whip cream. I'm sure you can find instructions online.

I have had my Whip-it for 5 years-I wash it by hand-my sister-the professional baker bought it for me-I LOVE IT-I have not had a single problem with it-ever-and am now buying the same one for my daughter in law. I am a hit on Holidays. :) I mix my powered sugar and vanilla in the heavy cream carton and pour it right in the canister. It

I agree with all the other answers - put cold heavy cream in the container (I have put in as much as 2 cups) - insert handle and turn it until you get the desired stiffness. DO NOT over mix or you will have butter. You can add sugar and any flavoring if you wish. It is easy!!!! In hot weather I set the container in a bowl of crushed ice while mixing.

Yes if you are making whipped cream, add one charge and shake it up. Whipping siphins can be used for much more. Bread to hollandaise mousse and that's just using nitrous.

Buy 1 pint (16 oz) of heavy whipping cream and pour it in. Only use Whip-It brand cartridges- insert the cartridge. Screw down the cap until you hear all the pressure relieved. Don't unscrew the cartridge cap, just leave it screwed in until all the whip cream is used. After pressurizing the cream, give it 5-8 good shakes, slowly pull the trigger over the sink to get it going. It sputters a bit at first, then it works perfectly. You can use it for up to a week. Keep in fridge. Shake a few times before each use after being on the fridge. I mix in a ounce of vanilla when I pour in the heavy cream for flavor. If you want it sweetened, use only confectioners sugar.

I do 1/2 and 1/2 all the time. Never did cream. As long as the product is fresh. If it isn't, you won't get a good froth.

Depends what you're using it for. I have the pint size and it didn't produce as much volume as the mixer but it is a completely different texture-yum! But I only used one NO2 cartridge ( didn't know I was supposed to use 2 for a pint based upon the other comments) and it failed to cover a 9 x 11 desert last Thanksgiving when I took it out of town with me so the cream wouldn't melt. It covered about 3/4 of the dish as I recall. Had to spread the cream...so much for trying to be decorative. Of course it's possible it would have gone further with 2 cartridges and more gas. I've also used the unit to make whipped cream at home over a two week period. Kept it on it's side as instructed. Just shake it up before serving and it worked fine. I did add a second cartridge half way through and it was even better. ISI makes a great quality product and everyone who's seen it thinks it's cool, serve's the best whipped cream and they're so envious that they say they've got to get one. Personally I'd get the pint size unit for the option to make more cream when needed. But take a moment and think about what size whipped cream do you normally buy at the store...1/2 pint or pint? This should pretty much tell you what would work best...unless you're a Redi-whip user. Hope this helps.

Our container holds 1pint of heavy/whipped cream. I don't know how long it lasts, it depends how often it is used. Shake before every use.

Anything that requires a heavy cream you can use Dream Whip. You don't have Dream Whip I will contact you in a few days. I'm out at the remote lodge in Alaska. Diana

With care and cleaning it should last +/_ ten years. Makes whip cream a breeze.Get a box of 25 co2 cartridges as they are expendable and work for one application.

Mine gets very thick. Key is to keep turning bowl and finding all the "pockets" of cream that is not yet thick. Keep whipping and moving til as you like it.

I use this to stabilize whip cream. Use 2 1/2t to 1c. whipping cream before beating. It does help the whipped cream last much longer. Add vanilla last.

Yes, I have the half pint isi whipper and these work fine. Be sure to shake well AFTER you have put the gas in and hold the whipper so that the tip is pointed vertically downwards when you use it. After the first big shake, only shake 1 - 2 times if you are using the whipper several hours or several days later (unless you like really fluffed whipped cream - I like mine creamier).
