What is the depth of the pockets when cooked? I had waffles add a B&B I really liked.They had very deep pockets with a nicely crisp texture.

These pockets are deep and come out nice and crisp. I make extra waffles and put them in the freezer. When I want to use them, I put them in the microwave for a short time and then into the toaster. They come out as nice as if I had just made them. I would definitely recommend the Krups waffle iron.

Is an inch "deep"? Enough for fruit, whippy, butter, syrup, etc. Crispy. We like ours.

The pockets are quite deep, the texture is perfectly crisp on the outside, soft on the inside. We use the waffle recipe from The Joy of Cooking cookbook (uses TONS of butter, fyi) and love every single bite. We are very happy with our waffle maker.

With some gentle prying, I am almost always able to remove the waffles without them splitting apart. Occasionally, I do not put enough oil in and end up with a torn waffle. Is the pan too hot when you pour the batter in? Is the oil burning? Also, I have found that, for some reason, the whole wheat recipe included on the package sticks a bit more than the other recipes. And make sure the pan is completely clean of any dried or burnt batter before cooking another waffle.

Read this little tidbit: http://verygoodfood.ca/2009/05/19/whats-the-difference-between-belgian-and-regular-waffle/After reading that, I'd say this is definitely an "American" waffle maker, but by making the proper recipe it should make great "Belgian" waffles. I found that when I was in Belgium I couldn't tell much difference in the size and shape but the texture was a bit different.

My does too, I am going to try another recipe. I did notice when I put them in a warm oven when I'm cooking the others, the waffles that are put in the oven first are better (drier in the middle). But they are supposed to be moist on the inside but not sure how much

I bought mine last December and love to cook with them. They heat fast, clean easily--every drop of oil after frying just rolled out of the pan before I washed it, and look and feel very nice. Only problem is the interior will scratch, so I have plastic to place inside if I'm going to layer another pan on top. Also, made the mistake of using a fork to quickly stir something just once, and when washing up I noticed the surface had a tiny chip--so don't use metal to cook/stir; stay with wood or silicone, etc.

No, it's not the thickness of belgium, which I prefer. It makes normal sized waffles. It's a wondeful waffle maker!! I love mine!!

by my tape measure they are 6 1/2" by 1 1/4 inch thick. i am also adding a couple of photos to my original post. i have found the omelet and pancake side to be good, though the waffle side better.

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

Define plain waffles. It's a Belgian waffle maker and it makes Belgian style waffles, with deep pockets.

I would say like a normal waffle. Not super thick like at a restaurant, but just as thick as any other waffle maker I have used in the past. Note that the waffles do not cook evenly in this, they are quite light along the front edge.

i would think it turns out a more perfect waffle. I am very satisfied with it. May be it depends on the batter you use.

Not that I am aware of. I don't think it is deep enough to make waffles. It is great for grilling meats. Sausages come out very well and vegetables such as green and red peppers, onions, tomatoes and even leftover baked potato cut in cubes.

I believe they are about 3/4 inch thick! About 2 times thicker than Eggo frozen waffles! Very nice machine. Rachael Ray uses this one on her show. Does a great job!

Hi :-) I put a bit of olive oil - but when I forgot to, it still didn't burn the waffles (they lift right out of there without sticking).

This waffle machine makes thin waffles. If you're looking for "deep pocket" waffles this is not for you.

That would depend on the setting you choose. I have used the medium setting so the waffle is golden and firm throughout. I assume a higher setting wld yield crispier results.

There is a knob on top of the waffle maker that you adjust for light to darker waffles. I have found turning the knob half way makes a golden brown waffle that is crisp on the outside and soft on the inside. I use a heart healthy biscuit mix and they are delicious. We are very happy with our purchase.
