TIPS AND RECOMMENDATIONS ON USAGE

​​

• When receiving a new machine, make sure to peel off all the plastic protective film on the stainless steel panels.  

​​

• The easiest cleaning method to clear built up residual sugar is simply to use the scraper to loosen up the sugar, lay a piece of paper towel on one plate, close the other plate on top and let the sugar drip off onto the paper towel.  If the sugar is not flowing/dripping, you can just use the scraper to scoop out the thicker sugar.  You can also spray a little water on the iron to to dissolve/loosen up the sugar and then use the paper towel.   Just be careful when you spray water as it can splatter.  Repeat a few times.  This is good for day to day maintenance. 

​

• Between cooking waffles, occasionally push the dark caramelized sugar into the center before cooking the next piece of dough.  This allow better turnover of new sugar mixing in with the darker caramelized sugar.  

​

• If you are careful not to burn the sugar and just have dark brown sugar on the iron at the end of the day, you can also just turn off the machine and let it cool to harden.  The next day you can preheat for 2 minutes (or just a low temp setting) just to soften up the sugar that hardened sugar and you should be able to peel off the sugar fairly easily.  You should be able to pull off most of the sugar or you can leave some on because that dark caramelized sugar gives you the best waffle.  

​

• The irons come with a silicone coating so they can be used right out of the box.  Eventually, this silicone coating will come off and you may want to do a full seasoning.   We recently discovered a product called Carbon Off (available on Amazon) that works very well for cleaning off burn sugar.   In a well ventilated area, you apply the spray or gel and it'll loosen up all the carbonized sugar.   You'll likely have to scrub a bit with a wire brush and make sure to rinse thoroughly before seasoning.   To season, you brush on light coating of safflower oil or preferably flaxseed oil, put it on max temp and let it burn off leaving a hard black shiny surface.  Repeat again 8-10 times.  Sheryl Canter describes it in more detail on her blog site that has gotten a lot of coverage from places like Cook's Illustrated.  Once finished, allow it to get back down to the normal cooking temperature and then lightly coat with a light high temp oil like Canola.
