How to stop excessive mix leakage from the rear of my Taylor Ice Cream Maker?
- D
  Diana FaulknerAug 22, 2025
  If you're experiencing excessive mix leakage from the rear of your Taylor Ice Cream Maker into the short drip pans, check the o-rings on the pump drive shaft for wear or if they're missing; install or replace them as needed. Ensure adequate lubrication of the drive shaft. Also, verify the refrigerant charge and check for a shorted freezing cylinder if the drive shaft and beater assembly work forward. Replace a worn rear shell bearing, and re-align the gear box if it's out of alignment.

  If product isn't feeding into the freezing cylinder, the mix inlet hole might be frozen; adjust the hopper temperature. Also, ensure correct usage of the mix feed tube, especially the air orifice for gravity-style freezers.

  If there's excessive mix leakage into the long drip pan, the seal on the drive shaft might be improperly lubricated or worn; lubricate it properly or replace the seal. Also, ensure the seal isn't installed inside-out on the drive shaft; install it correctly if it is.

Why my Taylor Ice Cream Maker will not run in AUTO mode?
- C
  Charles MartinAug 29, 2025
  If your Taylor Ice Cream Maker doesn't run in AUTO mode, check these potential causes: ensure the unit is plugged into a working wall receptacle. If the beater motor is out on reset, allow it to cool, switch the power off, press the reset button, switch the power on, and press the WASH keypad, ensuring the drive shaft turns clockwise; then, press AUTO. Check the circuit breaker or fuse and replace if necessary. If the MIX OUT light is on, add mix to the hopper and press the AUTO keypad. For water-cooled units, verify the water supply is on.

How to fix too soft ice cream from Taylor Ice Cream Maker?
- P
  Pamela BrownAug 31, 2025
  If the ice cream from your Taylor Ice Cream Maker is too soft, consider these factors. Adjust the draw rate to 5 - 7-1/2 oz (142 g. - 213 g) every 10 seconds. Be mindful that the continuous draw rate is about 15 cones. Ensure at least 3" (7.6 cm) of clearance around the unit (6" (15.2 cm) for models 338 and 750). Regularly clean the condenser or air filters on air-cooled units. For water-cooled units, check the water supply and lines for leaks or kinks. Replace bad scraper blades and adjust the viscosity control. Also, ensure correct usage of the mix feed tube, especially the air orifice for gravity-style freezers.

What to do if the ice cream from my Taylor Ice Cream Maker is too thick?
- N
  Nicole LucasSep 2, 2025
  If the product from your Taylor Ice Cream Maker is too thick, it could be due to insufficient mix in the freezing cylinder; check the air/mix pump assembly and ensure the mix inlet tube is fully submerged in mix. Improper priming can also cause this, so drain the freezing cylinder and re-prime the unit. Make sure the air/mix pump is correctly assembled by carefully following assembly procedures. Finally, the viscosity control might be set too cold, so adjust it accordingly.

Why is the ice cream "popping" when dispensed from my Taylor Ice Cream Maker?
- P
  Phillip MarquezSep 4, 2025
  If your Taylor Ice Cream Maker is dispensing ice cream that "pops", it may be because the draw rate is too fast; it should be set at 5 - 7-1/2 oz of product per 10 seconds. Also, the pump might be assembled incorrectly; assemble and lubricate according to the instructions in the Operator's manual.
