USING YOUR WAFFLE MAKER
FOR BEST RESULTS, FOLLOW THESE SIMPLE INSTRUCTIONS
When your waffle maker is heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke
or odor. This is normal with many heating appliances. This does not affect the
safety of your appliance. However, it may affect the flavor of the first set
of waffles prepared in your waffle maker, and it is recommended that you
discard these should they taste unpleasant.
PREPARING YOUR FLIP BELGIAN WAFFLE MAKER
-
Pre-heat the waffle maker by setting the temperature control to the maximum setting.
Close the waffle maker and plug it into the wall outlet, you will notice that the red power light will go on, indicating that the waffle maker has begun preheating. It will take approximately 5 to 8 minutes to reach baking temperature. The green light will remain on until you unplug your waffle maker. When the green light goes off, the waffle maker is ready for use. -
Set the Waffle Temperature Control to your desired setting. At first, try a setting in the middle. You may later adjust it lower or higher according to your preference. A lower setting produces a lighter colored waffle, while waffles made at a higher setting are darker and crisper. Different waffle batters will also cook up differently. Over time, you will find your perfect setting for the batter you use.
-
Before baking the first waffles of the day, use a pastry brush to lightly coat the top and bottom waffle grids with vegetable oil. A light coating of non-stick cooking spray also works well.
BAKING
- When the proper baking temperature is reached, the green light will go off. Once heated’up, cycle times will be faster.
- Pour batter onto the bottom plate of the waffle maker. Ladle just enough batter to fill the lower plate so that the peak area of the plate is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the batter into the corners of the plate. At this point the green light will go on as the baking cycle begins.
- Close the waffle maker and rotate unit 180° to the right (clockwise). Do not open for at least 1 ½ minutes. Opening the lid too soon will cause under-baked waffles to split, making them difficult to remove.
- When the green light goes off again, rotate the waffle maker 180° to the left (counterclockwise). Your waffles should be done according to the Waffle Temperature Control setting that you’ve chosen. If you want them darker, close the lid and continue baking until the desired color is achieved.
- Remove waffles from the plate using non-metallic utensils.
- If additional baking is to be done, close the waffle maker to retain heat. Always be sure the green light has gone off again before making more waffles.
- If you need to take a short break, close the waffle maker to maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice that the first waffles will bake faster because extra heat has been allowed to build up.
- When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord from the wall outlet. Leave the waffle maker open to cool. Do not begin to clean until the unit has completely cooled.
WAFFLE BAKING TIPS
- When preparing the waffle batter, do not over mix or the waffles will be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry ingredients disappear.
- The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped waffle, without overflowing, will vary with different waffle batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill the bottom plate of the waffle maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of the grid about ¾ to l cup.
- For more evenly shaped waffles, spread thick batters to outer edges of the plate, using a heat proof rubber spatula or other non-metallic utensil before closing lid.
- Cake-based waffles, such as Chocolate Waffles are more tender than regular waffles and may require more care when removing from the waffle maker. You may want to break these waffles into halves or quarters before removing. Use a spatula to support waffles when removing from the appliance.
- To retain crispness, move baked waffles to a wire cooling rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.
- When serving several waffles at one time, keep waffles hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F/93°C oven until ready to serve.
- Already cooled waffles can be re-warmed and re-crisped, individually, by returning to the hot waffle maker. Set the Waffle Temperature Control to low. Place the waffle onto the grid so the grooves match up; close the lid and heat for l to 2 minutes, watching carefully to prevent burning.
- Baked waffles also freeze well. Cool completely on a wire rack. Store in a plastic freezer bag or in a covered container, separating waffles with wax paper. Reheat frozen waffles in a toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.
CLEANING AND CARE
Here are a few easy steps to keep your waffle maker looking and working like new:
-
Always unplug the waffle maker and allow it to cool before cleaning.
There is no need to disassemble the waffle maker for cleaning. Never immerse the waffle maker in water or place in the dishwasher. -
Brush away any loose crumbs from the grooves. Wipe grids clean with a paper towel, absorbing any oil or butter that might be down in the grooves of the grid. You can also wipe grids with a damp cloth. Do not use anything abrasive that can scratch or damage the non-stick coating.
-
Wipe the outside of the waffle maker with a damp cloth only. Do not clean the outside with any abrasive scouring pad or steel wool, as this will damage the finish. A little metal polish suitable for stainless steel may be used occasionally on the top housing. Do not immerse in water or any other liquid.
-
Do not place in the dishwasher.
-
Should any batter become baked onto the grids, pour a little cooking oil onto the hardened batter. Let sit 5 minutes to soften batter, then wipe off with a paper towel or soft cloth.
-
Do not use metal utensils to remove your waffles, they can damage the non-stick surface.
