How long until the waffles are done on the recommended "4" setting?

The manual does not answer this question, only saying it takes approximately 4 minutes to preheat. So, I timed the different phases this morning:Preheat: took 3 minutes 25 seconds (so, not far from what the book said)1st Waffle: 1 minute 25 seconds (the batter was put in and the lid closed before timer was started; lid closed and unit rotated was in the timing)2nd Waffle: 1 minutes 20 seconds (no additional preheating because the 2nd waffle followed the first)Hope this is what you wanted. I love the Waring Pro waffle maker. Works great, no sticking (as long as you follow the instructions). Any mix will work, but I did discover that to avoid sticking, you should have a little oil in the batter.

I haven't timed it but it's pretty quick, maybe a 2-3 minutes. It heats up pretty quick, too, maybe 4-5 minutes.

I never timed it. But I would estimate 2 minutes. It isn't very long. It is very easy to make great waffles with this. And I can't cook! But I can make great waffles.

You can cook the waffle as long as you like. Takes some getting used to. Don't give up on the first few tries.

I usually do 7 eggs at a time and it takes about 5 min. or less. they are done perfectly.

Hi,430 F is the recommended temperature for waffles in this mold. Waffles cook quickly and need high heat to be crisp. All waffle mixes are not the same, check the directions on the mix first. Thanks,Joe

Just a few minutes. There is a light on the exterior that lights up when the waffle is finished cooking. So far, perfect every time.

I use about 1 and 1/4 cup and as I pour the batter in the center I observe and fill more toward the edges. The waffle actually came out fluffy and nice. Baking soda is they key ingredient.

It only takes 2-3mins per waffle. It also depends on how brown you want it to be.

I make waffles in mine every weekend. I plug in the maker, insert clean dry waffle plates, and set the heat dial to high. You have to wait for the lights to indicate it is heated up all the way, so I make the batter while it heats. I have a pump spray bottle (pampered chef) that I put olive oil (evoo) in and pump up the pressure. I spray this on the top and bottom plate, especially in the middle of both plates. I pour the batter in, and set the timer for 3 minutes. I don't open the maker after closing it for the entire 3 minutes. Once the timer goes off, I open and the waffle comes right out. I spray again before the next set, and always leave the heat dial on high. if the light comes back on to indicate the grill has cooled a bit, I wait to start the next one until the lights indicate it is again fully heated. This is the instructions as I rememebr them form the book that came with the grill. I have been using the same one every weekend for about 3 yrs now. I do hand wach my plates. The olive oil does create som ebuild up, adn the grill itself has gotten so hot, that the foreman name on the top has been wipped away. A hot well oiled waffle grill is the key!. Oh and the batter I use is the packets of martha white muffin mix, look to the back for a pancake recipe, and mix it that way. I use any of the flavors from berry, to banana walnut, to lemon poppy seed, and they all make good waffles, even if some are different colors of "brown" when the 3 minute timer goes off.

There should be two beeps - one for when the iron is pre-heated and ready for the batter, and another after the waffles are ready. If you are using a light setting, it might beep very soon (within seconds) after you pour the batter in. This is when you should remove the waffles. I mistakenly thought it was the indicator that the iron was back to temperature after I opened it quickly to pour the batter in, but in fact, they were done that quickly. Are you failing to get a beep even using different settings (light/medium/dark)? If you aren't getting the pre-heat beep followed by a second beep, I would return the iron and/or call the manufacturer. Good luck!

Sorry no. The red "baking" light will turn on immediately indicating the waffle plates are heating. Set thecolor control dial at 3 or 4.In about 4 minutes the red light will turn off, indicating the Classic WafflePro® is ready forbaking

The plates click in and out easily. I find a medium waffle takes about 8 minutes for the first one and 6 after that.

Yes, if you have them on a darker setting or if you make them lighter just leave them in longer. We are really happy with the waffle maker. We even save leftovers and pop them in the toaster oven the next day.

I do not know the exact amount of time, but it seems like the heating period is about the same as any other waffle maker. Waffle cooking time is also similar to other waffle makers. It has a heat setting dial. The waffle iron plates were a lot thinner than my Uno waffle maker that had [thick] removable plates. My kids think these waffles are soggy! Hope this answers your questions.

Each works independently. Basically... 1) both sides signal "ready to cook" when you warm the unit. 2) waffle one begins when you open the topmost cover, fill it, close it and spin it 180 degrees. Indicator Light on waffle one goes off. 3) waffle 2 can be started any time after step 2, but before the signal light comes back on for waffle 1, about 2-3 mins. 4) waffle 2, when you are ready, engages the same way as step 2. When you turn it 180 degrees, both waffle lights will be off. 5) based on steps above, waffle 1 light will be in top position when it indicates that waffle 1 is ready. Remove, refill, and spin 180 degrees. Repeat until all waffles are done! Hope this helps.

I don't know because setting 4 is all I use for toast and have not done anything except bread in it.

It all depends on the number of simultaneous waffles you néed to make. It makes a set of waffles every 3 mins or so and that is the only reason I would get the four is to increase production rate the two has always been enough for us. The 2 is also much smaller to store as well :-). If I had to buy again I would get the 2 again.

Around 6 minutes at the most! Do yourself a favor and get this!! I had one that cost $40-plus and the waffles stuck to it, even after straying the inside with cooking spray, so after around 8 months of this, I tossed it out! The family has been very satisfied with this one!
