A few tips on properly freezing Ninja Creami creations

Storing the pints in the door of the freezer will provide unreliable results as the temperature fluctuates in the door more than it does in the main freezer area.
It’s recommended to freeze the mixture for 24 hours on a level surface. If you don’t freeze it for 24 hours, the ice cream can end up being soft and icy.
Through trial and error, you will likely be able to freeze for a shorter amount of time (assuming your freezer is the correct temperature). You’ll have to experiment and see how the ice cream processes after less time. So, instead of freezing for 24 hours, try 22 hours, and then 20 hours, and then even less time until you come up with a good estimate of how long your freezer, and your mixtures take to get frozen solid.
The type of freezer matters. If you are using a fridge/freezer combo, it likely won’t freeze at the exact same rate as if you were using a deep freezer or chest freezer.
The amount of space in the freezer matters. If the freezer is empty, the ice cream can freeze slower than if the freezer is jam-packed with other things.

Not sure what the temperature is in your freezer? Get a freezer thermometer.

You don’t need to buy the most expensive freezer thermometer on the market. Get yourself a wireless thermometer so that you can see what the actual temperature is. Oftentimes, the build in freezer thermometers are not as accurate as you would like.

I have this freezer thermometer. It’s great because it comes with one to use in the refrigerator and one to use in the freezer. It’s inexpensive, wireless, and works great.
