Ice cream freezer replacement tubs | Replace wooden tub with fiberglass

Insulating fiberglass 6 quart tubs from Immergood are better than the OEM tubs used on White Mountain and Country Freezers.

This insulating tub is leak proof and holds ice cream much longer.  Optional matching fiberglass insulating lid  even allows you to make ice cream and then hold for outdoor events hours later.

Newer fiberglass blends make these tubs even more durable than the fiberglass used on earlier freezer tubs.

Replace an old wooden White Mountain or Country Freezer tub with a new Amish made heavy duty insulating fiberglass tub.







Replacement Immergood tub includes new heavy duty positive locking stainless tub ear and latch.

Developed and manufactured by an innovative Amish company, the new Immergood fiberglass tubs are the refined next generation of old fashion style ice cream maker.



While Immergood is sold in the local Amish community stores, to find one online you will need to go to Cottage Craft Works .com   They are currently only available in the 6 quart model.


http://www.cottagecraftworks.com has unique relations with the Amish communities providing them a market place for their durable products.  While most think of the Amish making quilts and great homemade cooking, you might be surprised at just how many functional old time products  that are available at the touch of a key board for the home, farm, ranch, and garden.

The Best-Economical-USA- Ice cream freezer | Ice Cream | Churn | Maker

The problem with purchasing an ice cream freezer today is the quality of the parts and overall durability.

Manufactures’ have become so focused on the discount and big box store frenzy  that they have totally lost sight of the ice cream loving family or other social groups that will be making homemade ice cream more than a once a year event.

Immergood Ice Cream Freezers are the next generation to the old fashion ice cream freezer. 

For homemade ice cream lovers the Immergood Freezer provides old fashioned quality and durability with a modern day twist. 

New innovative durable fiberglass tub is equipped with heavy stainless positive latching tub ear and latch.  Unlike older fiberglass tubs made over the years these new Immergood tubs also have the advantage of new stronger blends of fiberglass that make them even more durable to last for generations.



Previously to jump back into time to find a freezer with commercial durability for frequent ice cream making events people would need to purchase an Amish made Country Ice Cream Freezer.

Country Freezers are made by the Amish who really don’t care about the discount store competition; they just build things the old fashion way to last a few generations.

Immergood is also an innovative Amish company that has taken the old style ice cream freezer and improved on it. 

The fiberglass tub allows the Immergood price point to be much less than a comparable sized Country Freezer, yet the improvements are much more notable.

The fiberglass tub also has a matching tub cover that will hold ice cream for hours after it is made.  Some even report holding it over for days in the freezer tub.

Beyond the problems inherit with wooden tub freezers; Immergood has also focused on other key elements to add to the improvement listings.

Stainless steel gears with nylon bushings on the hand crank models are much more durable than on the Country Freezers.  See this Video done by a owner of both comparing Immergood to Country.



An all stainless steel positive cam lock tub latch is the first thing that new Immergood owners notice, and for good reason.  When ice cream begins to reach its ready state the freezer head becomes harder to crank or run with an electric motor. 



A loose fitting tub latch allows the head to move around creating more wear on the components and more effort for the freezer to finish the ice cream.

Made in Lancaster County Pennsylvania Immergood Freezers even come with their own serial numbers.

You don’t need to go to the Amish country to find them as they are sold on line at Cottage Craft Works .com

Electric- ice-cream- churn- freezer-20-qt-restaurant-commercial

This 20 qt old fashion ice cream maker is becoming popular with restaurants and small ice cream shops. 


While soft serve ice cream freezers dominate the fast food restaurants, those wanting to add the taste of old fashion hand crank churned ice cream are turning back in time.  

This  Amish Country Freezer is equipped with a modern day direct drive electric motor set up.

The unit also has a built in amp meter to help determine when each batch is ready.
Dual voltage ¾ HP motor operates on 110/220 volts 60/50Hz Single Phase. Motor is wired for 110 volts with standard US grounded plug for International customers. 

This custom churn from Cottage Craft Works.com uses an Amish made 20 qt Country Ice Cream freezer with a direct drive motor.  It has no external belts or pulleys making this freezer set up perfect for the commercial kitchen.

Other Amish companies use belts and pulleys that take up much more space and can become an employee hazard.  This type of set up is also difficult to keep clean and use in a commercial kitchen.

These issues are one of the reasons most commercial operators have steered clear of using this type of ice cream freezer.

Made of commercial grade 304 stainless steel can and dasher.  The unit can be ordered  with NSF certification stamp if required by local health authority.

Country Freezers feature;
  • Amish hand crafted (old time quality, company does not try to compete with imports)
  • Tall design for optimum freezing
  • Extra heavy seamless stainless steel can
  • Rustproof manganese-bronze housing
  • Rustproof zinc gears (stainless steel available up grade on 20-qt)
  • White Oak wooden tub (the same used to make whisky and other barrels)
  • Adjustable stainless steel tub straps (three of them to keep the tub staves tight)
  • Stainless steel shaft & handle
  • Stainless steel dasher 
  • ¼-turn slide latch (positive locking)
  • All stainless steel fittings (nothing to rust)
  • Should last a lifetime
  • 5-year warranty on all stainless steel parts

Everything is mounted on a rolling oak platform equipped with 3” polyurethane wheels.
See more by visiting Cottage Craft Works .com

The standard 20 qt freezer with pulley is also available.  It comes standard with a 14" V belt pulley but can be ordered with a 19" pulley with hand crank.



Cottage Craft Works offers all types of Amish made products for the home, ranch, farm and garden.  It is much like an old fashion Sears Roebuck catalog with functional products that are still being made like they were in the early to mid 1900s.

International companies will want to use an US forwarding agent like Bonvu.com for the most economical shipping rates.


Old Fashioned USA Ice Cream-Churns-Freezers-Makers

Quality USA made ice cream freezers are still being made just like the ones you probably grew up with. 

Deep in the heart of the Ohio and Pennsylvania Amish communities Amish factories are still making ice cream freezers just like they were made in the early 1900s.

During the late 1800s and early 1900s several companies were manufacturing heavy duty hand crank ice cream freezers.  White Mountain emerged as the main survivor and was once considered the Cadillac of back yard ice cream makers. White Mountain also made the transition over to electric powered freezers and still make both hand crank and electric freezers today.

As with many American companies White Mountain  struggled with increasing pressures from investors, imports and the discount store push for lower prices.  The company moved manufacturing out of the US and sold several times  to different large corporations. 

In order for the company to survive the focus had to become centered more on profits and competing with much cheaper models and whole new line of table top electric ice cream makers flooding the US market. 

For the average consumer, these ice cream makers work very good and are priced right.  For the Amish who make homemade ice cream more frequently year round for large families and social events they needed an ice cream freezer built more towards commercial use. 

White Mountain freezers are still a very solid economical choice for a family who enjoys making homemade ice cream on special occasions.

Building an ice cream freezer with  the old fashion durability that the Amish required  just was no longer feasible for main stream corporate America.  So the Amish began to manufacture their own ice cream freezers.

Not being pressured for profits and sales the Amish make products mainly for their own use within the large communities across the US and up into Canada.  Their focus is on long term durability and use.

Over the years Amish made Country Ice Cream Freezers became the most popular ice cream freezer used by the Amish.  Like many great products non Amish quickly realized the quality of the Country Freezers and began to go into the Amish stores to purchase them for their own use.



While the Country Freezer is still one of the best made they still have wooden stave tubs that will begin to leak it they are allowed to dry out.  Storing a wooden tub freezer in a hot garage or attic is just not a good idea.

 To solve this problem other Amish companies have been designing less costly fiberglass tubs that are leak proof.  In doing so one Amish company discovered how to construct a tub to provide an insulating air void between the outer and inner layers.  They also make a rust proof tub center for the triple motion dasher can to smoothly turn on.

This insulating factor keeps the ice cream colder for longer periods of time.

Beyond the improved tubs, these newer Amish made freezers incorporate many improvements over the Country Freezers. 

The hand crank models made by Immergood incorporate long lasting stainless steel gears with nylon wear bushings.  The tub ear and latch are made from heavy stainless steel.  The latch has a positive cam lock.  Immergood is also developing their own USA electric motor to be made as an available option in 2015.

This innovative Amish company that goes by the name Immergood is also adding more options including a fiberglass insulated tub cover to hold the ice cream longer after churning and even a clear can cover to be able to watch the ice cream as it is being made. 

Just to give an example of how the Immergood compares to the County Freezer, watch this Video produced by a customer who purchased the hand crank frame and compared it to the one made by Country Freezer.



Country Freezers have the most sizes available starting with a cute 1 qt going all the way up to the commercial 5 gallon 20 quart size.

Most families find the 6 or 8 quart models adequate for them, while the 20 quart is used for large socials and church events.

You might also see the Country 20 quart hooked to an old time hit and miss motor at a county fair as many ice cream vendors use them to attract a crowd.  There’s nothing better than a hot apple dumpling topped with a scoop of homemade ice cream.

As restaurants and small ice cream shops try to entice customers with unique dishes many are purchasing the 20 quart Country Freezer equipped with a direct drive electric motor. 

While many of the Amish shops still use belts and pulleys, this newer direct drive Country freezer is much more acceptable in a commercial kitchen.  It can also be ordered NSF stamped certified if required by local health departments.



These Amish made ice cream freezers can be purchased at Cottage Craft Works .com  

Cottage Craft Works also has all the parts for the Country as well as White Mountain freezers.


Cottage Craft Works located at http://www.cottagecraftworks.com has one of the largest selections of Amish made products for the home, garden, farm and ranch.

Customer Review CCW-3 Equine-Oat-Crimper-Roller-Corn-Cracker

Please feel free to post my review because you have certainly done a great job and earned my respect for customer service.

The equine oat crimper is a good product for my operation, my boys raise hogs for 4H and they need a mill to grind their hog ration with. This roller mill / crimper came ready to grind, in a short amount of time we had a 55gl barrel full of mixed hog feed. I spent quite a bit of time looking for feed mills that would grind the volume of grain that we need and this crimper was the best fit for our operation. I am happy with what we got but mostly I am happy with the quality of customer service that came with purchasing this machine. Paul called me the day I placed the order and made sure that the truck shipping arrangements worked for me and he has promptly responded to several follow up e-mails asking about support items and possible attachments like a grain auger. I like the confidence that I purchased a quality product with solid customer service and support.

Thanks
Eric Davis

Oat crimpers are Amish made and available in 2 sizes.  The CCW-3 will crimp oats as well as crack corn.

Winter Wood Working Projects For The Avid Hunter Promotes Family Values

These can’t miss wood working projects will keep them busy on those long cold winter days and nights during the off season building long lasting family memories.

Turkey Call Kits

Turkey box call and friction slate call kits come already cut out and ready to assemble and finish.  Hunters can carve, wood burn or finish them to make a heirloom father son project.  Flash forward 30-50 years these calls will still bring back the father and son memories of making them together and then bagging the big Tom together on opening day of the upcoming season.





Rebuilding an old Shotgun or Rifle

Replace an old worn out or broken gun stock with and affordable replacement stock.  Hunting and guns run deep in family blood lines and so does the old family heirloom rifle or shot gun that dad or granddad first taught a youngster to shoot with.

You can still find unfinished gun stocks for some of the early models of shotguns and rifles.  Over the years these old relics may have been abused or broken during various moves made by a family. 

Just by age some of the wood especially around the forends have become brittle, cracked or broken off.





Now with Pop long gone people want to bring back the memories and restore these old guns as they remember using them for the first time.

An unfinished machine inletted stock takes the major work out of starting with a slab of wood.  The stocks are duplicated off an original with the hard inletting 90% to 95% completed.

The woodworker then can take and hand fit the stock and complete the outside final sanding and then finish it saving hundreds of dollars that shop techs charge to complete making it worth redoing a family heirloom.

The wood worker will need some knowledge of working on guns.

And where do you find these types of project components?  The old fashion product online General Store at Cottage Craft Works .com

Just going through the large selection of old fashion hunting gear and products will stir up childhood memories.

Cottage Craft Works http://www.cottagecraftworks.com is much more than just a hunting web site store.  You will find hundreds of old fashion American made products for the home, farm and garden.

It is like the old fashion Sears and Roebuck where you can order Amish sewing cabinets, a hand push garden plow, cookware, and even organic grains and flour.


Can’t Miss Christmas Gifts for The Avid Hunter

If you’re stumped for hunter gifts Cottage Craft Works .com just might be your answer for hard to find USA made of fashion gifts for that special hunter.

Outerwear and hunting gear is also available patterned after the Wicks old fashion outerwear.  Some of the toughest material made to stand up to thorns and thickets that normally shreds a regular hunting jacket or pants.



Heirloom quality leather hunting gear and belts will take you back in time when US Presidents and British Royalty  were pictured in hunting gear.




Amish custom made gun cases will display a favorite pistol or family heirloom.



Leather and nylon holsters are available for just about any carry needed.

The unique double wheel design is a reproduction of the famous Planet Junior garden cultivators used at a time before gasoline engines were ever used on a gardening implement.

The tool bar holds a variety of attachments that can be used in tandem to make single passes that normally might take twice to triple the effort over traditional garden cultivating.

The small plow blades can be set to cut the soil in or out.  Set them to cut a “V” furrow to plant a row of potatoes and then reverse and widen the plow blades to hill back over the top of the potatoes to cover both sides in one pass.




Use two 6” hoe blade attached to both sides and the double wheel passes over new growth vegetables as the blades slice down weeds on both sides of the rows all in one pass.



The optional attachments include sweeps that can also be used inward our outward to slice under the soil, and optional harrow disc and even a seed planter are available.

The Double Wheel Hoe is USA made and features Amish made steam bent handles.


It is available at Cottage Craft Works .com and is one of six different types of USA made hand push garden cultivators available at this unique old fashion product online store.

Those who are looking for the best selection of USA made garden cultivators go to Cottage Craft Works . www.cottagecraftworks.com/handpushcultivators

Cottage Craft Works carries six different types of just hand push cultivators.   The Wheel Hoe garden cultivators are reproductions of the famous Planet Junior cultivators that were the mainstay of home gardeners in the early to mid 1900s.



The Wheel Hoe cultivators have the most attachments available to till and slice through gardens.  The tool bar allows for groupings of attachments to till both sides of a row at the same time as well as furrow and hill rows without double passes.



Other cultivators include a flip and go a clever top and bottom sided cultivator with a plow on one side and traditional garden tines on the other side.  Simply pivot the cultivator to either side and use the cutting tools without ever having to change out attachments.



The Rotary Weed & Till is a reproduction that uses a rolling set of blades as the wheel to cut and chop weeds while the back tines turns up the roots.



There’s even cultivators for all sizes of people.  It is the Amish women and children who mostly tend to the gardening side of the household while the Amish men tend to the field corps and their different manufacturing businesses.

Stop Maple Syrup Sugar Sand | No Boil Water Jacket Canners | Filters


Don't risk your batch of maple syrup to sugar sand in the final bottling process this season.  

With all the work and time it takes  to  collect the sap and boil down maple syrup the quality of the final product all comes down to the finishing and bottling.  One boiling mistake can mess up the entire batch with sugar sand deposits.

Most will us finish pans or traditional canners over hot gas burners tediously trying to control the temperatures from boiling  which, is what creates sugar sand.

Keeping the safe bottling temps down to the last drop of syrup is also difficult.



These new water jacket finish canner/bottlers provide even temps without hot spots down to the last bottle of syrup.  This reduces the or chance of boiling  creating  the dreaded sugar sand deposits in bottled syrup.  Available in 10 and 16 Gallon Sizes with or without burner stand.

The 10 gallon two burner is just the right size for most hobby farm operations while the three burner 16 gallon canner will keep up with most wood fired maple syrup evaporators.



Featuring  stainless steel screen top to use both a pre-screen and main screen filter as the syrup is being poured in. Complete with thermometer and bottle filler valve these canners have it all in one package.

Roller Egg | Rollaway Egg | Chicken Nesting Boxes

Increase production, reduce labor, have less damaged eggs and a more sanitary egg collection process.
Rollaway nesting boxes are designed so the eggs roll forward in to and under a protected compartment for latter collection.

These boxes take away the opportunity for the eggs to be stepped on or eaten.

Having the eggs all lined up for collection allows for less labor and search time in reaching into nest boxes.



The eggs also have less chance for the chickens to mess on them making the process more sanitary.

There’s been a couple rollaway nest box designs on the market, but most companies just provide a metal divided nest box without the rollaway feature.

Some on the market use plastic parts that will eventually will become brittle and break.  They also use thinner metals.   Cottage Craft Works .com offers Amish made all metal rollaway nest boxes that use thicker galvanized metals that are more of a commercial grade. You can also find a large selection of poultry house products available at this unique online general store.

When the Amish build things they do so with longevity and functionality in mind.  They use thicker metals no plastic or short lived parts.  They are not as concerned with corporate share holders or planned obsolesces.

The type of quality products made by the Amish compare to the American made products that were made to last in the 50s and 60s before plastic was even an available option.

Cottage Craft Works also offers two different proven styles.  The traditional divided nest box in 2, 4 and 8 compartments as well as an open concept community nest box in 24” and 48” patterned after the community nest used in large commercial egg processing facilities.



It would be impossible to provide enough nesting boxes for large row houses, thus community nesting boxes handle larger flocks.

The smaller commercial producers or even the back yard hobby farmer can still obtain the same concept in a commercial quality nest box sized for smaller flocks from Cottage Craft Works.

The open community boxes can also be purchased as a front collection or rear collection system.

The rear collection system allows the nest box to be mounted on an outside wall of fence for egg collection outside the coop. 


 
Rear collection boxes are perfect for smaller coops and free range chicken tractors where it is difficult on nearly impossible to obtain inside access.

Nesting boxes are shipped flat unassembled for shipping.  They easy assemble using nuts and bolts.  No rivets are required.

Cottage Craft Works .com is a unique back-to-basics general store where the owners have personally traveled the back roads to find the most functional back-to-basic products for the general public.
Now with over 5000 products self sufficient motivated shoppers and search for simple old fashioned products that are still being made and used in the Amish off grid lifestyle.

Hand Push Reel Mowers | New Mowers USA Old Fashion Quality

High quality USA made reel mowers are still available today.  Ideal for small to medium size yards where storage for gas and gas powered equipment is just not available.

Reel mowers are very environmental friendly to reduce your carbon foot print.  They are also very neighbor friendly with no noisy engine.

Reel Mowers were the only way to mow yards before the invention of the gas powered lawn mower.
The mower uses a rotating bank of blades to clip off the grass.  

As the mower is pushed the wheels engage the blades which are geared to turn much faster than the mower is being pushed.

Like most old fashioned products over the years reel mowers have been transferred to the import manufacturer.  And like most imported items the use of cheaper components to keep the price point lower provides a product that  just doesn't seem to perform  or last as long as the original models.

Imported reel mowers seem to push harder and loose the sharpness of the blades quicker.

A trip through Amish communities is a good test of those products that work and those that don’t.  You won’t likely find many imported reel mowers in use since the Amish purchase items that will last a very long time.

When the Amish are unable to find quality reproduction products of the originals they begin to manufacture them to use themselves and to sell within the Amish communities.

Clipper USA is an Amish manufactured reel push mower.  It is available in a 17”, 19” and 21” model. And comes with an unheard of 10 year warranty.



You might call the Clipper the old fashioned Cadillac of reel mowers.   The parts are all USA made using heat harden steel cutting blades and thicker metals than used on the cheaper imports.

They are easy to push, easy to adjust with just one knob and easier to maintain.  Best of all they take up very little space and can even be hung on a wall. 



 You can even purchase them with larger wheels for different turf grasses.  An  optional grass catcher is also available. 

Quality does come at a price expect to pay a little over $600 for something that will be the last mower you will ever need to buy.

You can purchase the Clipper USA at Cottage Craft Works .com

 Cottage Craft Works www.cottagecraftworks.com is a unique back-to-basics sustainable living general store with all types of simple gadgets and products to live more self-sufficient.

With over 5000 products people can find some old fashioned hard to find products that are just not available anywhere else.

Ice Cream Makers | Ice Cream Freezers | Making Homemade Ice Cream

When it comes to making homemade ice cream you have several options for an ice cream maker.  Depending on how often you and your family like to make up a batch of fresh ice cream you can spend under a hundred to several hundred dollars.

If you make a small batch of homemade ice cream once or twice a year you can probably get by just fine with one of those imported freezers being sold in discount stores for under a hundred dollars.

However, if you’re a routine homemade ice cream family or you make a lot of ice cream for social functions purchasing  too cheap may end up with a wasted batch and disappointment.

In order to sell those imports so cheaply manufactures use plastic parts and low end components to maintain their profit margins.

To step up a several notches White Mountain Freezers are a long time popular mainstay.   They come in 4 and 6 qt hand crank or electric models.



If you really want to step up into a USA made freezer with larger sizes the Amish made Country Freezers are made with all USA parts.  They range in size from 1 pint all the way up to a 20 qt 5 gallon size.



A new emerging Amish made freezer called the Immergood uses a fiberglass tub and heavy duty stainless parts.  It currently is only available in a 6 qt in hand crank or equipped with a White Mountain or Country electric motor.   A 8 qt Immergood with a USA made motor is in development for 2015.



You can purchase both White Mountain and the Amish made freezers as well as all the replacement parts for older freezers at CottageCraft Works.com

Cottage Craft Works www.cottagecraftworks.com is a unique back-to-basics sustainable living general store with all types of simple gadgets and products to live more self-sufficient.
