I'm looking for one that makes the pizzelles THIN and crisp, not the floppy thick ones my new one makes. Which one does that, the NS or polished?

I have the polished, but wonder if the texture has more to do with the recipe than the finish. Case in point - this past Christmas I followed a pizzelle recipe but forgot to add the baking powder. They turned out thin, crisp and delicious. Next time I added the baking powder, and the pizzelles were thicker and soft. I, too, prefer thin and crisp and will intentionally omit the baking powder next time. Just my experience, hope it's helpful.

I love the non-stick! The thinness of the pizzelle will be determined by the recipe you use and the amount of pressure you put on the iron when you place the batter in. Squeeze it tight for a few seconds before letting up to cook.

Hi the pizzels I make on this machine are thin light and airy the trick is to lock Handel's together they come out thin as paper so to speak. If you want them thicker don't lock Handel .love the finish on here its easy to clean and one shot of kitchen spray does the whole batch of cookies.D hope this helps

I believe its in the recipe you use. My husband likes them thick so I use the recipe which uses 6 eggs & 3 1/2 cup flour. The basic pizzelle recipe uses 3 eggs & 1 3/4 cup flour, they were thinner. And I have a polished pizzelle maker. Love it!

I bought this for my best friend and she loves it. The little pizzelles are super super thin. Perfect thickness, as far as I can tell.

Polished, no treatment. I used some steel wool on them and they were good. Better than most skewers.

The locking system works easily but I find that to get really thin pizzelles it is best to sqeeze the handle tightly for the first few seconds after closing the lid. This is not necessary if you don't have to have really thin ones. This is my first time making them and maybe I want them too thin.

Ours are very crisp. There is a control for cook time / browness. In the picture its on the base on the left. Not sure when the default is, but I think those that prefer the softer product as well as the crisper crowd are both able to be satisfied with what this machine can do.

The interior or baking part of pizzelle maker is a black, non-stick coated metal surface. If you follow directions you will not have any sticking problems.

Not sure, but pizzelles have so much butter in them, I've never had one stick to this press, and I prefer the thin crispy cookies vs the thicker chewier ones.

Make sure the model you buy says non stick. Not all are. The Model you are looking at, CucinaPro 220-05P ends with a "P" for polished, I do not believe it is. The last letters in the model name must be "NS" for non stick.

All my Lodge Iron pans including this one are not polished smooth. For a smooth surface recommend the pans made by DeBuyer (Mineral B Element) or similar. Those are not cast so they do not have the roughness inherent to a non polished casted pan. I own the DeBuyer-Mineral-Element-Crepe-11-8-Inch for cooking my breakfast items (eggs, pancakes, etc.) and like it a lot.

Don't know about the other model. But my wife is thrilled with the way this works. Lifts the dough off the doughboard and puts it down on the pizza stone with ease.

The United Kingdom ( UK) makes this outstanding pastry blender. I made several crumb toppings w/this quailiy unit.Have tried others,and OXO is my choice.Hands down to any other at present. Some importers around the world might export this UK unit.

The top side of the marble slab is polished and is 100% smooth. The other side is rough a rough finish but has "feet" to keep it off of any counter-top surface. What I like about it,is that is hefty in weight but not so heavy that you can not move it from one place to another. Also, because it is marble, it it always cold so that it makes for an excellent surface for rolling out dough.

There is a recipe for cannoli a included. I have not made them yet. There is only the pizzelle pattern, no plates to change or remove. Does this help?

My wife and I aren't sure what the coating is, but it works VERY well and is a great Pizzelle maker. I would check with the manufacturer if I were you.

yes, the instructions come with several recipes - mosy call for oil instead of butter - look on the net and find a basic recipe with butter - much better pizzelles when made with butter!
