To anyone who has used the waffle plates, did you find the bottom of the waffle browner than the tops? I used the grill/panini side and my gf recipe was thinner than I thought it should be. Anyone else had this problem? null

Hi There...I recently bought the waffle grates and notice the same... It is because how much contact the top grates have with the waffles ...I tried different recipes, the best ones are the ones that have yeast because it makes your waffle to raise more so more contact with the top grates, it that way both sides will be crispy, you will also need to press a little bit .... It is different than those waffle makers that you can flip , those will have a more even cooking I think.

I have the same problem even when I close the griddler for flat sandwich. The top of the sandwich doesn’t get hotter than the from the bottom plate.

I don't have the waffle plates ( that will be my next order) but I've definitely noticed that the main heat element cooks a little hotter than the other. Make sure the trays are pushed in all the way.

Once it was perfect
Another time was a little lighter on the top plates
I assumed it was from possibly a little less batter or I was moving too slow and the bottom plates had the batter a little extra longer
