How do you cook both sides of the pancake, doesn't seemthat you could flip them?

It's very easy to use. Trick to flip the pancake: get one of those cute tiny mini spatula that is about the size of each pancake or even smaller so that it won't touch the adjacent one while flipping. Use it to lift the pancake slightly, then with help of a butter knife or spreader or little fork, flip it over...easy without problem. But the pattern shows well only one side of the pancakes, unless you use a batter that doesn't bubble too easily, then you sometimes could have a slight pattern on the other side after flipped.

Yes we can. Let the first side cook for a while until golden brown and, with adequate oil used initially (not much needed actually), it won't stick. We can flip it over quite easily. I use a wooden chopstick to lift up the edge and then with the other hand, a spatula to flip it over. Practice makes it easier.

I use a plastic pallet to flip them and I use the tip to get under the pancake, also I take the pan and I lift it a bit on one side to make it easier. I got the hang of it and I love the pan, I use it almost everyday. So far so good, not a problem with it.

To have the pattern on the other side I cook them firts at medium-high so that the bubbles show quickly, when I flip them they are heavy and I cook them on low, the pattern will show. I use pancake mix from Sam's Club.

I decided to experiment by timing everything I cook. Timing will vary from product to product, but I now know how to prepare my favorite foods. It didn't take very long to figure it all out. In addition, I flip my food once or twice while cooking. My George seems to cook a tiny bit hotter on the bottom. The instructions say it isn't necessary to flip your food. Perhaps it is just a comfort zone for me as I prefer to flip. I am very happy to cook with my George now that I know how to cook my favorites.

I personally have not had this problem. We make our pancake at least once a week on ours and no problem with them cooking uneven. We have also put it griddle in different locations.

is there a tutorial on this machine? I got mine at an estate sale with no extra parts or directions, the little bit I am reading sounds like they will make nice pan cakes though. I love silver dollar or swedish pancakes ( small) will they make those? not really clear on when you flip them, are they fully or just dry?

Heat the pan, then spray or brush with oil, then add the batter and fruit and then a little more batter to cover. Flip with spoon, fork or whatever works best for you and cook other side as well.

Yes you can cook pancakes on it. Add a little olive oil and they won't stick.

I have a small pan like this, so I have a solution. I put the egg in the pan, cook until it needs to be flipped, and I turn it over into another frying pan that has been heated and the shape is still round, and I don't have to struggle with the flipping, and trying to keep the yolk from running. It takes 2 pans, but it is worth it.

Super easySimply remove hex screw at handle and flip over. Both remove and can be placed on either side

Either side can face your knees, RPM, your choice. Personally, I put the waffle side in; either choice woks, though.

It is easy to flip the crepes, and of course you can if you want to. It is not necessary, though. Just use your spatula that came with the crepe maker, and be careful not to overcook them.

I've not needed to only use one side. If the 2nd one isn't needed, refrigerate it & microwave it layer.

No, one side is for waffles and the other side is smooth for pancakes or omlettes.

Oh yes! You can easily flip them-just like you would if you were making an omlette on a griddle. I use a rubber spatula that works great. I would not use a metal one. I'm kind of picky when it comes to my crepes so I like both sides to be browned and like to flip the crepes. But you don't have to flip them if you don't want to because it will cook both sides without flipping. I have only tried this with crepes though, not pancakes.

I've found that if you put the lid on the pan during cooking, at low/medium heat, it's not necessary to flip them. The egg might be very slightly less done on the top, but they still come out firm with liquid to soft yolks.

Maybe you have the temp too high. I don't this unit, but thats usually the case with pancakes on a griddle.

I use the smooth side, You could use either side, your baked good will come off very easily.

It's probably bad for the pan to do just the one side...I recommend you do the two loaves, then tuck one into plastic bag and freeze for later use. (I use the Bo Friberg baguette recipe, which makes 3 in the small size batch, and I freeze a raw loaf to rise and bake later, plus often freeze a baked loaf for use a few days later...HTH
