Why Wae Maker?

WHY WAFFLE MAKER
The Gourmia Double Wae Maker has the space to bake two waes
simultaneously, allowing you to prepare more waes in a short
amount of time.
It also features a 180 degree rotation for even distribution of the
batter - resulting in thick, golden waes. The rotating action helps to
create waes with a crispy exterior and tender interior. The wae maker
begins preheating when it is turned on which ensures a faster and more
ecient baking process for the waes.
The griddle has a nonstick coating to prevent food from sticking
and allows for easy removal of food and cleanup. The deep grid of the
wae plates guarantee thick and uy waes every time. Additionally,
the handle of the wae maker oers a safe and secure grip that helps ro-
tate the wae maker easily. The wae maker includes a removable drip
tray which ensures that any overow or drips can be easily cleaned.

WAFFLE MAKING TIPS
TIPS
• In order to make a perfect wae, do not over-ll the grid, but make sure
to have enough batter to cover the grid.
• To get identical waes - pour the same amount of batter evenly through-
out the grid.
• In order to keep the waes crispy, put the nished waes on a metal
rack and wait for them to cool down a bit. This will prevent the bottoms
from becoming soggy.
• When making a large quantity of waes at a time, preheat your oven
to 200° F, and put the baked waes in the oven to keep them warm.
• A cold wae can be placed back into the grid for a minute or two to
warm it up and make it crispy.
• Do not use metal utensils to take out the waes, as it may damage the
grid.
• Once the waes have been cooled on a metal rack, they can be frozen.
Place them in a freezer bag or in an airtight container with wax paper in
between each wae.

• This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to t into a
polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not t securely into the
outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t, contact a qualied electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
• A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) is provided
to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer detachable power-supply cords or extension cords are available
and may be used if care is taken when using them.
If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:
• The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should be at
least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.
• If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord should be
a grounding 3-wire cord.
• The longer cord should be arranged so that it does not drape over the
countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over unintentionally.
