This Electronic Ice Cream Maker is Smartphone-Connected

This electronic ice cream maker is bringing the quaint art of dairy churning into the digital age.

Anyone who's made homemade ice cream knows that it's a joy to make and a delight to eat -- and that in between being a joy and a delight, there's a painful part in the middle, where the ice cream has to be churned every few minutes for hours. Electronic ice cream maker models do exist to take the physical labor out of the process, but they don't solve the problem of having to sit around the kitchen on a hot summer day, tending to the ice cream while it hardens.

Enter the electronic ice cream maker of the future: iScream. iScream is connected to its own smartphone app that will pause, play or auto-churn the machine, so that after the fun part is done, the whole family can play outside while the iScream churns itself. The app also offers recipes and tips. As an added bonus, the iScream can make two flavors at once!
