Ice cream maker paddle getting stuck while most of the mix is still quite soft

I have a Buffalo compressor Ice cream maker (looks a lot like a Cuisinart Ice 30) When I run it, it works but close to the end it freezes, the sides are frozen and the paddle stops turning but the mix in the centre is a bit too soft IMO. It's a rush to get it into the container to freeze and I'm not sure if it's really done or has been stopped too soon. I've tried scraping the sides and running it again but the same thing happens almost immediately.

My ice cream recipe is with 6 egg yolks, 180g sugar, 400ml cream, 200ml milk. And vanilla.

The only two things I can think is 1, I am impatient and never chill the base overnight first just a couple of hours and 2, the ice cream machine is in a very hot room (laundry room as we have no space, but the room is tiny and gets incredibly hot)

Any thoughts?

Thank you
