001_010914
When installing this gas unit in the United States, you must conform with local codes, or in the
absence of local codes, with National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1 (latest edition).
NOTE: Some local codes may require ventilation hoods or automatic fire systems. During
any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at pressure equal to or less
than 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping
system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.
After installation, all gas connections must be checked for leaks with a soap
solution (see Checking for Gas Leaks section of this manual).
CAUTION
Be sure to observe all clearances for this unit. Refer to the Setup Section of
this manual to ensure proper air supply and adequate clearance for servicing

or explosion! When gas connections are complete, have a qualified
professional wire the unit to a power source which will carry the current
specified on the unit’s data plate.
034_042814
1. Apply SOAP BUBBLES to all connections and pressurize the gas line to check for leaks.
Perform this test outdoors away from any flames or sparks.

a qualified professional to inspect and correct any issue.
3. Securely route all gas lines away from flames and high temperature areas.
4. Contact Gold Medal Technical Support, or a qualified Gas Service Technician with any
questions.
Gas Pressure
We have determined that optimum cooking occurs when the gas pressure is adequate. The
pressure is measured at the appliance when the main burner is ignited. For propane gas, we
recommend a manifold pressure setting of: Model 4110BG: 10 inches of water column
Model 4110HD: 11 inches of water column

Making Candy Apples
Candy Apple Coating
Candy apple coating is a mix of various sugars: sucrose, glucose, and dextrose. Hard candies have
traditionally given chefs trouble. However, using fully prepared mixes such as our APPL-EZ
eliminates most chances of a bad batch.
Follow the instructions on the APPL-EZ bag for the proper amount of sugar and water.
In APPL-EZ, or any other dextrose-based mix, the stated quantity of water is very important.
•Too much water results in a longer cooking time and thicker batch.
•Not enough water results in crystallization and “raw” candy.
•Make sure there is ample gas for the unit.
Apple Sticks
The large 5½" long, round Northern wood stick is preferred. The length makes small apples
seem larger. Gold Medal also sells the smaller 4½" lengths for economy. The round geometry
makes spinning the apple in the pot easier than flat or square sticks.
Amount of Water
Sufficient water must be used to allow for the correct cooking time. Cooking time is the most
important aspect of candy making.
•Too short of cook time leads to crystallization and no set-up.
•Too much time causes a brownish color, a burnt taste, and too thick a batch.
•Optimum cooking time is between 15 and 20 minutes.
Types of Apples
Pick a hard apple, (in either color). Dipping an apple in hot candy actually cooks the “meat” of the
apple just under the skin. The juices in this “meat” make the skin become sticky.
Never use cold refrigerated apples. Allow refrigerated apples to warm up to room temperature,
otherwise, the candy may not stick to the apple skin.
Temperature
Optimum cooking temperature is 275°F.
Remember: The cooking process actually means melting the sugar crystals. Sugar burns
at 330°F; to be on the safe side, never allow temperature to exceed 300°F.

Page 16

Dipping the Apples
Make sure apples are cleaned and sticks are inserted. When temperature is 275°F, turn heat OFF.
1. Pick up apple by stick, with thumb and index finger, insert into candy apple coating
(immersing entire apple).
2. Remove from candy and carefully scrap off excess candy.
3. Place on greased cooling rack.
Ground Peanut Coatings
Rolling candy apples in ground peanuts makes them very attractive. You must roll apples
immediately after dipping, otherwise nuts may not stick. Shredded coconut may also be used.
Cellophane Wrapping
Cellophane wrappers keep apples good for several days. They are a must in high humidity areas.
Wrap apples as soon as they cool.

Care and Cleaning
WARNING
To avoid burns, DO NOT touch heated surfaces.
DO NOT place or leave objects in contact with heated surfaces.
009_092414

use non-toxic, food grade cleaners).
For surfaces needing further cleaning or degreasing, Watchdog Stainless Cleaner (Item No. 2088)
is available for use accordingly. For any cleaning products used, follow the manufacturer’s
instructions on the product. DO NOT use oven cleaners or abrasive materials as they will
damage parts of machine.
Follow the directions below to clean the unit each day after use.
1. Follow burner shutdown instructions to turn the unit OFF, then allow it to cool before
attempting to clean.
2. Do not leave water in pans overnight. Clean all pans/accessories after each use—
