00:01Ice cream, ice cream, ice cream.
00:03We can never get enough.
00:05Whatever the flavor or the toppings, this fad will never fade.
00:08So come along with us to learn how ice cream is made.
00:12Heavy cream, condensed skim milk, and liquid cane sugar are mixed together with egg yolks and other natural ingredients, depending
00:19on the flavor.
00:26The pasteurizer heats the ingredients to kill the harmful bacteria, and then it's off to the homogenizer, where it's pressurized
00:33and smoothed into an even mixture.
00:36It's held in the tank room for four to eight hours to allow the ingredients to intermingle, and from there
00:42it heads to the flavor vats.
00:43Here, a range of flavors are pumped into the mixture. Things like vanilla, banana puree, pure peppermint, and more.
00:51Next, it goes to the freezer. At Ben & Jerry's Waterberry Plant, the freezers are 40 degrees below zero.
00:58To make chunky flavors, the ice cream takes a turn through the chunk feeder.
01:08Swirls of fudge, caramel, peanut butter, and other flavors flow through a variegator and get injected into the ice cream.
01:19The flavors are dispensed into pint containers using an automatic filler, a machine that fills 120 pints per minute.
01:36The pints head over to the spiral hardener, an environment that's 60 degrees below zero with the windchill, and become
01:43fully frozen.
01:45This delicious ice cream is distributed nationwide and enjoyed by all.
