Low, poor, or slow heating.
• Breakfast sandwich maker wasn’t preheated until PREHEAT light
was illuminated. Green PREHEAT light will come on in about 2 to
4 minutes indicating unit is heated to the correct temperature.
Light will cycle on and off during cooking and does not indicate
sandwiches are ready.
• Allow 2 minutes between making sandwiches for breakfast
sandwich maker to heat to the correct temperature.
• Overfilled. Reduce amount of ingredients in your sandwiches.
• Unit needs to be preheated with the cover closed with rings and
cooking plates in place.
• Make sure cooking plates are rotated securely to back of rings as far
as they will go, to prevent leaking of eggs, and cover is closed when
preheating.
Eggs undercooked, bread not done.
• Extra large eggs, frozen, or very cold ingredients may lengthen
cooking time. Add additional cooking time.
Eggs overcooked.
• Cooking time is about 5 minutes. Cooking time may vary if you are
using small eggs, scrambled eggs, or egg whites. Reduce cooking
time for future recipes.
Ingredients stick to rings or nonstick cooking plates.
• Use a plastic or wooden utensil to loosen any baked-on ingredients.
Lightly spray with nonstick cooking spray before preheating for next
use.
Eggs leak out of rings.
• Unit is overfilled. Only use large eggs and reduce amount or size of
ingredients. Do not press down on the cover.
• Cooking plates may not have been in the correct position. Make
sure cooking plates are rotated securely to back of rings as far as
they will go to prevent leaking of egg.
• Used very thin purchased egg whites. Use fresh egg whites or try a
different brand of egg whites.
• Make sure unit is properly preheated.
Cover rises when cooking my sandwiches.
• The air whisked into large scrambled eggs may cause the cover to
rise while the eggs are cooking. Do not press down on the cover.
Bread too brown.
• Higher fat contents and sugars may cause breads to darken. Cook
eggs for several minutes without top bread and cover down. Also
have ingredients ready to assemble so bottom bread does not cook
a lot longer than top indgredients. Then add bread to finish cooking
your sandwiches.
