To make delicious and crispy waffles

December 02, 2020

There is a very simple way to make thin, crispy waffles - waffle machines , which are often used both in pastry shops and at home.

Waffle machines go by several different names, but these names depend on the type of waffle. For example, in the United States, it is popular to make very thick, large, and soft waffles , which are even thicker than Belgian waffles.

Today we would like to introduce you to three different waffle makers from different manufacturers, all of which are quite affordable and can be purchased on our online store website.

Bomann HA 5017 CB

Bomann is a German company that produces waffle machines, although the German name is only a brand name, as the products are manufactured in China. The device, measuring 25x20x11.5 cm and weighing 1.8 kg, is relatively powerful in terms of energy consumption - 1.2 kW. This power implies a high cooking speed.

The heating temperature is controlled by a mechanical switch. The diameter of the surface is 18 cm, which allows you to cook one round pancake. The body material is plastic, and in terms of functionality, the device is very laconic.

The manufacturer's attempt to reduce the cost of the device led to such an unpleasant side effect as the use of low-quality materials.

Advantages:

Beautiful design;
Protection against overheating.

Negative:

Low quality materials;
It has no support;
The waffle batter sometimes sticks to the pan because it doesn't have a non-stick coating.

Maxwell MW-1571

The Maxwell waffle maker is made in China, just like the Bomann. But in terms of power consumption, this model has a much lower figure - 800 watts. Moreover, this circumstance does not affect the cooking speed in any way.

The model is also equipped with mechanical heating control and a certain indicator that indicates that the device is ready for operation.

Advantages:

Attractive design;
Affordable price;
Rubber feet.

Negative:

Uneven baking.

Clatronic HA 3494

The Belgian waffle maker consumes 1.2 kW of energy. The size of the device is 20.5x25x11.5 cm, and the weight is 1.44 kg. The diameter of the baking pan is 18 cm.

Many users have complained about poor workmanship. For example, the top panel doesn't fold back far enough to stand upright without a stand. There's also a lot of dissatisfaction with the short cable, though it's worth noting that it can be folded into waffle cones.
