Locking And Unlocking Your Waffle Maker

Your Waffle Maker is unlocked only when the Control Knob is facing up. You can only open the Waffle Maker
in the unlocked position.

Tips For Perfectly Baked Waffles

1. Stir your waffle batter only until large chunks of dry ingredients are dissolved. Over mixing the waffle
batter can cause the waffles to be hard.
2. Set the Control Knob to your desired setting. The higher your setting, the darker your waffles will be.
The color and crispness of the waffles also depends on the batter used. Experiment with the setting and
different waffle batters to determine your ideal Waffle Maker settings
3. The exact amount of batter needed to make perfect full-sized waffles depends on the type and
consistency of the batter. Use the same ladle or measuring cup each time to determine how much
batter you need to fill the lower plate fully so as to cover the peaks in the plate.
4. When making softer variety of waffles, once they are baked, make sure to cut the waffles into halves or
in 4 quarters and support them with a spatula at the bottom so it is easier to take them out from
the plates, since softer waffles can break easily.
5. When making large batches to serve at once, you can keep the waffles fresh & crisp by placing them in
a preheated oven at 200°F. Take them out using oven mitts when you are ready to serve.
6. To avoid waffles with a moist base, kept the waffles on a wire cooling rack. This will retain the crispness
of the waffles.
7. You can reheat your waffles in the waffle maker. Pre-heat the waffle maker on low setting. Once
preheated, place the waffles on the lower plate so they fit the grooves correctly, then close the waffle
maker and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, checking every 30 seconds to avoid burning.
8. You can also freeze your waffles to eat later. After the freshly baked waffles have cooled completely,
pack them in a covered container or plastic freezer bag. Make sure to separate the waffles with a sheet
of wax paper between each waffle. To reheat the frozen waffles, place in a pre-heated oven, toaster
oven or toaster until they are hot.

5. Use a soft cloth on the heating plates and occasionally a metal polish intended for stainless steel on the
outer housing. Never use abrasive scouring pads or steel wool.
6. If there is hardened batter on the plates, pour a little oil and let it sit for about 5-7 minutes.
You can then wipe clean with a paper towel.
