Waffle plate Neumarker L31-40430

A turnable baking plate designed for the classic Brussels waffle, delivering the thick, fluffy texture characteristic of the Benelux region. The plate's construction allows the operator to rotate it during baking, ensuring even heat distribution and consistent results without the need to open the appliance. This method preserves the trapped steam that gives the waffles their light, airy interior while forming a crisp exterior.

The process begins by preheating the plate to the required temperature. Once ready, the batter is poured into the two deep, rectangular moulds, each shaped to produce a waffle measuring 105 x 165 x 34 mm. The turnable mechanism is then engaged, allowing the plate to rotate smoothly within the appliance. This rotation ensures that both sides of the waffle receive equal exposure to the heat source, eliminating uneven baking and reducing the risk of hot spots. The non-stick coating prevents the batter from adhering, so the waffles release cleanly once fully cooked.

Constructed from aluminium, the plate conducts heat efficiently, reducing the time needed to reach and maintain the optimal baking temperature. The non-stick surface is applied directly to the aluminium, eliminating the need for additional oils or sprays during use. The plate's compact dimensions—180 mm in length, 230 mm in width and 50 mm in height—allow it to fit into standard professional waffle makers designed for interchangeable plates. Weighing 3.1 kg, the plate is light enough for frequent handling but sturdy enough to withstand daily use in a busy kitchen.

The non-stick coating simplifies cleaning; after use, the plate can be wiped down with a damp cloth or sponge to remove any residual batter. For deeper cleaning, mild detergent may be used, but abrasive pads or harsh chemicals should be avoided to preserve the coating. The aluminium base requires no special maintenance beyond ensuring it remains dry to prevent oxidation.

This baking plate is specifically designed for producing two Brussels waffles per batch, making it suitable for cafés, brunch services and catering operations where consistent portion sizes are required. The turnable design and non-stick properties reduce labour time and waste, while the durable construction ensures reliable performance over repeated use.

The product is categorised under interchangeable baking plates for professional waffle makers, fitting models compatible with the SWING system by Neumarker.
