YOU MADE A GOOD CHOICE ChefsChoice®, maker of the world’s finest waffle makers, has created the professional Belgian Waffle Maker, Model 850/850-SE, for the waffle connoisseur. The result of more than five years of intensive research, the Model 850/850SE creates an entirely new taste sensation for a full depth Belgian Waffle.
GETTING TO KNOW THE WAFFLEPRO® MODEL 850/850-SE Take a minute to familiarize yourself with this product and its user-friendly controls to ensure years of waffle enjoyment. Open the waffle maker by placing your finger under the locking latch as you lift the plastic handle. The lid, hinged at the rear of the waffle maker, can be fully opened where it will rest securely in the upright position. Figures 1 and 2 (below) show the location of key features and controls.
selecting the “Crisp Exterior- Moist Interior” (fast bake) position, which applies full power to both waffle plates. Baking will take longer if you select “Uniform Texture”, which uses less power for a deeper bake that allows time to develop a crunchy interior. BAKING TIME DISPLAY Displays the selected baking time in minutes and seconds or the time-remaining once the baking cycle is initiated. It counts down from the set time to 0:00 and beeps 3 times when the waffle is ready.
Do not place your hand or any other part of the body near the perimeter of a WafflePro® when baking. Steam can burn. To control baking temperatures rotate the color adjustment dial. The numbers are precisely calibrated 1 thru 6 against the actual plate temperatures which covers the optimum temperature range for waffles. For most waffle batters a setting of 31⁄2 is a good place to start.
Procedure: Heat the waffle plates fully and wait for the “Ready for Baking” green light to come on. Open the lid and carefully add 1 to 2 tablespoons of water to the center of the lower waffle plate. Caution: This will create steam! Immediately close the lid so that both the upper and lower plates are treated simultaneously and wait for the water to steam off completely. Note: Adding water will likely automatically trigger the countdown mechanism.
11.Always unplug the Belgian WafflePro® immediately when you are finished baking. Never leave it unattended when plugged in. Children should not be allowed to use a waffle maker except in the presence of an attentive adult. Store the waffle maker only when fully cooled. It cools faster when the lid is left fully open.
the most satisfactory when baking waffles with added fruit. If the fruit sticks to the baking surface, simply add a little water, close the lid and steam the excess fruit off after you are finished baking. Because the Belgian WafflePro® heats and bakes so rapidly on the “Crisp Exterior/Moist Interior” setting, you will be able to prepare waffles about as fast as they can be eaten. Waffles taste best “hot off the griddle” but you might let them cool on a wire rack for 20 to 30 seconds before serving.
