Different waffle batters will also cook up differently. Over time, you will find your perfect setting for the batter you use. How do you keep your waffle crispy after it is done baking?

The ceramic coating is all-natural because ceramic is made from naturally occurring raw materials that come from the ground such as clay, quartz sand, and feldspar. Since it is all-natural, it is PFOA- and PTFE-free so there is no Teflon and it is safe even if it is operating at a really high temperature because it will not release any toxic fumes that can harm you or your birds. Why are Teflon waffle makers dangerous? At temperatures below 260 degrees Celsius (500 degrees Fahrenheit), Teflon is safe and non-toxic. However, if you use a Teflon-coated waffle maker at temperatures above 260 degrees Celsius (500 degrees Farhenheit), the Teflon coating will start breaking down and release toxic polymer fumes. If you are exposed to these fumes on a regular basis, you may develop flu-like symptoms such as headaches, fevers, chills, and body aches.
