5/ CLEANING OF A WAFFLE MAKER
Baking waffles causes a lot of residues (dough and caramel). This is why it is important to keep the waffle maker in a good state of
cleanliness so that the appliance is always efficient. We therefore recommend the cleaning methods listed below.
Important : Never immerse an Ampi® waffle maker in water or any other liquid.
Only removable stainless steel drip trays can be immersed, cleaned in water or in the dishwasher.
• For the daily cleaning of the waffle maker
These operations should be performed as often as possible. The more you realize them, the appliance is keeping cleaned.
• Ampi® scrapper
The scraper is an accessory made specifically for commercial waffle makers AMPI®. The tool is designed to facilitate
the cleaning of the waffle machine. It helps to collect residues (pearl sugar, dough and caramel) accumulated in the
cooking plate. We recommend it to perform these 3 functions:
- Re-centre pearl sugar and caramel between two bakings : Between two bakings we recommend to centre all the
sugar in the middle of the baking plate (the most possible). Then after putting a ball of dough on your baking plate
realize a a complete 180° rotary 180° of the machine in order to extract the sugar with the next waffles. The additional
benefit is that it will give a crispy, crunchy and a golden coating to your waffles.
- Remove sugar and caramel : you can also extract directly the sugar from the waffle maker mold by using a wet towel.
- Clean the waffle iron mold : when you finish to work and the waffle maker is off but still lukewarm, wrap the scraper
with a wet towel and realize a cleaning between the teeth to remove residues (pearl sugar, dough and caramel)
NB : Using scraper does not damage the massive cast iron. Our baking plates are designed to last despite the use of
the scraper.
• Potato starch
Use a dough made of potato starch + water. It easily removes residues of sugar, caramel and dough in the plates. Here's
the procedure to be followed (estimated time: 10-15 minutes) :
1.
Set the temperature of the waffle maker to 220°C-240°C (428°F-464°F) and let it reach.
2.
Meanwhile mix ingredients : 120g of potato starch for 200ml of water. The mixture is liquid.
3.
Open the waffle maker, pour the mix on baking plates A and B. Let the dough swell and thicken until no liquid is
visible, then close the waffle maker during 5 minutes.
4.
Open the waffle maker. Remove and throw away the potato starch dough which will have absorbed the residues
from the baking plates.
5.
Do not forget to grease the waffle maker when starting the next baking.
Note : We recommend that you do procedure when production is finished, before switching off the appliance. In this way,
the machine will be in good condition to cook the next waffles.
Note : : If there's a quiet time during the day and the waffle maker is clogged, we advice to execute this last procedure
and do not wait until the end of service to carry out this very useful operation.
• For the deep cleaning of the waffle maker
Perform these procedures when the cast iron plates remain dirty despite the maintenance and the two regular procedures
described above.
• Pyrolysis system
Important : This operation will create smoke, so be sure to carry out this operation in a well ventilated room. Watch
out for the smoke detector in the room.
1.
When the waffle iron is still hot, turn the thermostat to maximum (position 10 - 300°C/572°F). When the
temperature is reached, let the residues burn as long as smoke is released (more than 2 hours if necessary). This
operation will burn and reduce to ashes all organic matters still present on the cooking plates.
2.
Switch off the appliance and remove the plug from the socket.
3.
While still slightly warm, brush the waffle iron with a brush, dry dish brush (or a rotary nylon brush if necessary) to
completely clean the cast iron. Including between the teeth / pyramids.
Wait until the cast iron plates are cool. Then go to the "Coating application" step below.
4.
• Coating application
If the baking plates are "sticky" and it is more difficult to remove waffles. We recommend performing a "coating
application" of the cast iron.
Important : Ensure that you perform this task in a well ventilated area. The appliance may produce smoke, which is
normal. Watch out for the smoke detector in the room.
1.
The waffle maker must be perfectly clean (without dough residues, caramel, etc.).
2.
Using a silicone brush, grease all the studs and inner edges of the cast iron with cooking oil.
3.
Close the waffle iron using handles and plug the appliance.
4.
Switch on the appliance and set the thermostat to maximum (position 10 - 300°C/572°F). When the temperature is
reached, let heat for about 60 minutes. Grease several times in thin layers.
5.
Leave the waffle iron open to let it cool. During this cooling, some surfaces may still be hot. Be careful to not burn
yourself. This will cover the cast iron with a thin film of grease.
6.
Use a potato starch liquid mixture (as explained above) in order to clean the cast iron plates. These « waffles »
made of potato starch will be black caused by dirt.
7.
After this cleaning, grease again the waffle maker before to use a normal waffle dough.
