How to Use a Whipped Cream Dispenser?

What is a whipped cream dispenser?

It is a highly multifunctional tool for the kitchen, making fluffy and light espumas, warm and cold sauces, whipped creamy soups, whipped cream, and desserts. It is a versatile kitchen tool that will help you achieve amazing creativity in the kitchen.

Now, let’s learn how to use a whipped cream dispenser.

What You Will Need?

To use a cream whipper, you will need the following items.

  • Whipped cream dispenser
  • Nitrous oxide chargers
  • A kitchen scale
  • A jug or a beaker
  • A shaker
  • A measuring cup
  • A stirring spoon
  • Whipping cream powder
  • Flavor like white chocolate or vanilla (optional)

Step By Step Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Liquid Whipping Cream

Prep the Ingredients. 

Add 60 ml of white chocolate into the measuring cup followed by 475 ml of cold water. Use a stirring spoon to mix the chocolate with cold water.

Pour 125 grams of whipping cream powder into the jug. Then add the mixture of cold water and white chocolate into the jug. Use a stirring spoon to thoroughly mix the whipping cream powder with the white chocolate enriched cold water. Stir until you create a homogenous solution.

Step 2: Add the Liquid Whipping Cream into the Dispenser

Add the Liquid Whipping Cream to the Dispenser. 

Detach the head from the dispenser and pour the liquid whipping cream into the cream whipper. Be careful not to pour the liquid outside the bottle to avoid messing up your kitchen counter.

Step 3: Pressurize the Canister

Pressurize the Dispenser. 

You need whipped cream chargers for this step. Unscrew the charger holder from the head of the cream whipper.

Insert one 8g N2O charger into the charger holder. The slender side of the cartridge should be facing outwards.

Reinstall the charger holder with the cartridge inside. Lock in until nitrous oxide gas is released into the dispenser. Listen closely until you hear a whooshing or hissing sound.

Then check the dispenser for any leakages before use.   

Step 4: Attach the Appropriate Decorative Tip

Attach a decorative tip. 

You can use different decorative tips to create attractive designs, top fruits, beverages, and cakes. You can choose to use plastic or stainless steel tips.

You can use a lotus tip, plum blossom tip, cross tip, or injector tips, depending on your innovativeness. We will be using a lotus tip to create our unique whipped cream patterns.  

Step 5: Shake the Dispenser

Shake the dispenser. 

Give the cream whipper 10 to 20 shakes. This will help mix the gas with the liquid whipping cream for the best-whipped cream results.

Step 6: Create Whipped Cream

Create whipped cream. 

Now you are ready to create whipped cream. We strongly discourage you from using the cream whipper with the head facing up.

The liquid whipping cream is obviously denser and heavier than the nitrous oxide gas. So, if you press the lever while the head is facing up, all the gas will escape from the dispenser.  

Always use the dispenser with the head facing down. This way the liquid whipping cream will mix with the gas and come out together. The gas will form bubbles that help create the whipped cream.

Step 7: Clean the Cream Whipper

Clean your cream whipper. 

If you happen to use all the contents of the dispenser, you can clean all the parts, dry them, and store the dispenser for future use.

Start by pressing the lever several times to remove any remaining cream and nitrous oxide gas. You should do this on the kitchen sink.

Then remove the empty cream charger from the charger holder. Detach the head from the dispenser bottle. Use mild soap and water to clean the bottle.

Remove the dust protection cup or charger holder and the decorator tip or nozzle. You must remove the head gasket and wash it separately. Use warm water and mild soap to clean the head. Use a cleaning brush to remove any cream residues from the decorator tip and the dispensing valve.

Allow all the parts to air dry before you reassemble the cream whipper for storage.
