Understanding The USA Made Immergood Ice Cream Freezers

Many are asking where did this company come from and why is Immergood Ice Cream Freezers becoming so popular?

The answer is simply all about an old-fashioned USA made high-quality product that works exceptionally well in making homemade ice cream.

Somewhere down the line discount stores have browbeaten manufacturers into such cut-rate pricing concessions for ice cream makers-freezers that the consumer has really been getting the short end of the stick.

Those ice cream freezers might be OK for an occasional family get-together but for serious homemade ice cream families, they are finding that the Immergood Ice Cream Freezers are made to last as things use to be made in the early 1900s.

You won’t find the Immergood Company listed on the Internet, because of their popularity you will find several companies now selling Immergood Ice Cream Freezers including Amazon and eBay.

Immergood which is German (Immer Gut), for "Always Good" is manufactured in the USA by an Amish company.

Refreshingly the Amish have a different concept in manufacturing products. Instead of making things at the lowest price point possible to become obsolescent in a few years, they build things to last a lifetime.

Frustrated with the now imported ice cream freezers that once dominating the US ice cream freezer market, the Amish Immergood founder spent years trying to improve those freezers for the Amish communities.

When they cheapened down the tub ear and latches he went the other way and developed a cam lock stainless latch and opposite tub ear that would securely hold the frame in place.

He also developed his own gears for the hand crank models and later began making them out of stainless steel.

Dealing with the thinly made wooden tubs that leaked he developed his own fiberglass and poly insulated leak-free tubs.

He increased the quality and thickness of the stainless steel used in the freezing can to be 40% thicker than the leading imported freezer can.

The rust proof and salt resistant stainless steel have even been carried forward into all stainless Immergood models.

Finally, since he was already making all the parts he decided to launch his own company and Immergood has since then become the most sought-after ice cream freezer in the Amish communities.

Immergood currently uses an imported electric motor to power the 6-qt Immergood freezer or you can upgrade to a USA made motor made by another Amish company for the Country Freezers.

As of 2017 Immergood has developed their own triple action electric motor similar to the air powered motor sold by Cottage Craft Works.com The electric motor will not be available until 2018 as it is undergoing final testing and certifications.

You can expect to pay about 1/3 to 1/2 more for the quality made Immergood versus the discount store brands but in the ice cream maker world, you truly get what you pay for.

You can purchase Immergood Ice Cream Freezers online now from various sources.

Cottage Craft Works.com is the original supplier of Immergood Ice Cream Freezers. Like many of their products, they were the first ones to discover them deep in the Amish communities realizing the exceptional quality and brought them to the public via e-commerce.

How to keep chickens from cracking and eating eggs

Once a chicken gets a taste of egg yolk it’s hard to stop them.

There are just three options, catch the culprit(s), try and break the habit or invest in a nesting system that removes and protects the eggs from the chickens as soon as they are laid.

Next, to collecting the eggs as frequent as possible, the easiest solution is probably to just identify the perpetrator(s) and make a big pot of chicken stew.

This is not always easy and does take some detective work.

Depending on the size of your flock, there may be more than just one.

You might just luck out by checking the beaks for possible egg yolk residue.

If you just have a few, try the process of elimination by isolating them as best as possible to identify the culprit.

Rotate them through a temporary holding pen and nesting box. As you remove one hen from the flock for a couple days at a time and the issue stops you will know you have the culprit.

If you find one nest(s) that seems to be hit the most and you have a wall or post directly in front of the nest, consider going high tech with a surveillance video cam and see if you can capture the perpetrator in action.

Surprisingly it may not actually be a chicken but another egg seeking predator, such as a rat or snake that you may only capture on video.

In using a video, you might need some type of ID system to mark the back of the head of the hens if there’s not already distinguishing features.

Some water based face paints dabbed on the comb or feathers, or a number when they are on the roost will help to provide the positive ID.

If you have a large flock and want to try breaking the habit, some decoy eggs might work. These can be either wooden or plastic eggs. Some have even used golf balls.

The concept is to collect the fresh eggs soon as possible and replace them with a decoy egg. As the chickens peck the decoy eggs hopefully they will discover they are wasting their time and will give up.

Others indicated they have had success by taking a regular egg and poking just a large enough hole to remove the yolk and egg white and then replacing it with mustard.

If you're just tired of messing with broken and cracked eggs and want to upgrade your nesting boxes consider roller egg nesting boxes.

The name basically says it all. The egg rolls forward into a covered compartment as soon as they are laid to prevent them from being seen by the chickens.

You can find roller egg nesting box plans online if you want to try and build them yourself. You can also find galvanized metal roll-a-way egg nesting boxes online, such as the ones from www.CottageCraftWorks.com.

The galvanized nesting boxes are an initial investment but they are built for many years of use. The key is to find them made without any plastic parts that will eventually break off.

If you need to purchase new lumber to build the nesting boxes from plans, really sharpen the pencil and figure out the material cost.

With the price of new lumber, these readymade galvanized ones may not be that much difference.

You will have a labor factor on either type, as you will either be building wooden ones or assembling the metal ones. But there’s no measuring or cutting so assembly won't be as much labor time.

Metal nesting boxes are also easier to clean and disinfect than wooden nest in case you ever have an infestation problem.

The nesting boxes can be lifted and taken outside to pressure wash and disinfect.

Roller nesting boxes do take some changes in the way you work with them. They are designed to use little nesting material or none at all so that the eggs can roll forward into a covered compartment.

As odd and foreign as this might sound, doing completely away with nesting material also means less chance of infestations.

The nesting boxes from Cottage also come with a wooden training egg to encourage the chickens to begin nesting.

If your chickens are accustomed to nesting boxes with bedding, you can start out with full nesting material, to begin with, and then gradually pull out the material until you have completely eliminated it.

The quicker that you can capture the eggs into the roll away compartment the faster you will be able to have your eggs protected.
