Making Waffles
1. Place the Drip Tray on the Stand.
2. Lightly coat the Waffle Plates with cooking oil and close.
3. Align the small triangle on the Temperature Control with the desired setting, between MIN and MAX.
4. Plug the Power Cord into a standard 120V AC electrical outlet. The red Power Indicator will illuminate,
indicating the unit is heating. When the Waffle Maker has preheated, the green Ready Indicator will
illuminate.
5. Open the Plates and pour ¾ to 1 cup of batter (enough to fill the Bottom Plate) into the center of the
Bottom Plate. Use a utensil to spread the batter evenly over the four sections. Batter should lightly coat
the top of the grid. Close the Plates. Wait five seconds, and then use the Handle to rotate the Plates
fully to the right. NOTE: Waiting for five seconds allows the batter to settle onto the Bottom Plate and
rotating ensures that the batter distributes through both Plates and cooks evenly.
6. When the green Ready Indicator on the Bottom Plate illuminates, the waffle is ready. Rotate the Plates
completely left and open them. If the waffle is cooked to your liking, use a utensil to remove it and close
the Plates. If not, close the Plates and rotate them right again to cook the waffle longer.
7. When finished using, unplug from the electrical outlet. Clean as directed in the “Care and Cleaning”
section.
Useful Hints for Use
•
For a hearty, healthier waffle, use whole grain flour in place of white flour.
•
Stir or sift flour before measuring it, as it settles when it sits. Use the back of a knife to level off the
flour in a measuring cup; don’t pack it down.
•
When serving several waffles at a time, keep cooked waffles crisp by placing them on a baking pan
in a 200˚F (93˚C) heated oven. Another way to maintain crispiness (without the use of an oven) is to
place the waffles on a wire rack instead of on a flat surface.
•
For light and fluffy waffles, don’t over-mix the batter. Some small lumps in the batter are fine. Waffles
made from smooth batters may be tough.
•
Refrigerated batter kept in a tightly-sealed container will remain fresh for one or two days. It will also
thicken, so you may have to add some milk or water and remix the batter before cooking. Cold batter
may also require additional cooking time to reach the desired brownness.
•
Waffle recipes that include butter, oil, or eggs will produce crispier waffles that brown more easily than
those made from batters without these ingredients.
•
When recipes call for fresh buttermilk, buttermilk powder is a good substitute. Use the powder as
instructed on the package.
•
Close the Plates immediately after removing a cooked waffle to maintain the proper baking
temperature for additional waffles.
