2 Pour batter onto bottom grid of wae maker. Ladle just
enough batter to ll lower grid so that the peak area of the
grid is covered. If necessary, use a spatula to spread the
batter in to the corners of the grid. At this point the green
light will go o as the baking cycle begins.
3 Close wae maker and rotate unit 180º to the right
(clockwise). Do not open for at least 1
1
⁄2 minutes. Opening
the lid too soon will cause under-baked waes to split,
making them dicult to remove.
4 When the green light goes on again, rotate wae maker 180º
to the left (counterclockwise). Your waes should be done
according to the Wae Temperature Control setting that
you’ve chosen. If you want them darker, close the lid and
continue baking until the desired color is achieved.
5 Remove waes from the cooking plate.
6 If additional baking is to be done, close wae maker to
retain heat. Always be sure the green light goes on again
before making more waes.
7 If you need to take a short break, close wae maker to
maintain heat. When you return to baking, you will notice
that the rst waes will bake faster because extra heat has
been allowed to build up.
8 Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is being
used by or near children.
9 When baking is complete, simply unplug the power cord
from wall outlet. Leave wae maker open to cool. Do not
clean until unit has cooled.
Waffle Baking Tips
1 Set the Wae Temperature Control to your desired setting.
At rst, 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 wae, while waes made at a
higher setting are darker and crisper. Dierent wae batters
will also cook up dierently. Over time, you will nd your
perfect setting for the batter you use.
2 When preparing wae batter, do not over mix or waes will
be tough. Stir batter only until large lumps of dry ingredients
disappear.
3 The optimal amount of batter to produce a full-shaped
wae, without overowing, will vary with dierent wae
batters. Pouring batter from a measuring cup will help you
gauge how much batter to use each time. Fill bottom grid
of wae maker with enough batter to cover peak areas of
the grid.
4 For more evenly shaped waes, spread thick batters to
outer edge of grid, using a heat proof spatula or other
utensil before closing lid.
5 Cake-based waes, such as the Chocolate Waes are more
tender than regular waes, and may require more care
when removing from wae maker. You may want to break
these waes into halves or quarters before removing. Use
a spatula to support waes when removing from the
wae maker.
6 To retain crispness, move baked waes to a wire cooling
rack to prevent steam from accumulating underneath.
7 When serving several waes at one time, keep waes
hot and crisp by placing on a rack in a preheated 200°F
oven until ready to serve.
8 Already cooled waes can be re-warmed and re-crisped,
individually, by returning to hot wae maker. Set Wae
Temperature Control to low. Place wae on grid so grooves
match up; close lid and heat for 1 to 2 minutes, watching
carefully to prevent burning.
9 Baked waes freeze well. Cool completely on wire rack.
Store in plastic freezer bag or in covered container,
separating waes with wax paper. Reheat frozen waes
in toaster oven, oven or toaster until hot and crisp.
