The W17 produces six stick waffles per cycle at 1400W on 230V single-phase supply. Teflon-coated cast plates form consistent elongated waffles for grab-and-go service. Operated by café staff, dessert shop teams, and breakfast buffet personnel.
Commercial Application
Stick waffles are held vertically and consumed without plates or cutlery. This format suits counter service operations where customers order, pay, and collect within two minutes. The W17 runs continuously during peak breakfast or dessert hours without rest periods.
Each cycle completes in under four minutes depending on batter viscosity and desired browning. Six waffles per batch support steady throughput for queues of 15–20 customers per hour. Timer indicates completion without requiring operator attention during cooking.
Key Operational Advantages
- Produces six elongated stick waffles per cycle with fixed pattern depth
- Teflon-coated cast plates release batter cleanly without manual greasing between batches
- Automatic thermostat maintains consistent plate temperature across production shift
- Timer alerts operator when cycle completes without continuous monitoring
- Stainless steel housing and heating element withstand commercial kitchen humidity and cleaning protocols
- 1400W heating element brings plates to operating temperature in under eight minutes from cold start

Construction & Build Quality
Housing is formed from stainless steel with welded seams. Heating plates are cast aluminium with industrial-grade Teflon coating applied at 0.05mm thickness. Thermostat is calibrated to ±5°C tolerance and mounted directly onto heating element assembly.
- Stainless steel exterior resists corrosion from steam and cleaning chemicals
- Cast aluminium plates distribute heat uniformly across waffle pattern
- Teflon coating rated for 2,000+ cycles before surface degradation
- Heating element sealed against moisture ingress during daily cleaning

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What are the dimensions and weight of each stick waffle produced?
A: Each stick measures approximately 20cm length and 3cm width when fully cooked. Weight varies with batter recipe but averages 60–70g per stick. Pattern depth is 8mm.
Q: How many waffle cycles can the W17 complete per hour during continuous operation?
A: Operators typically complete 12–15 cycles per hour depending on batter type and desired browning level. This yields 72–90 individual stick waffles per hour. Recovery time between cycles is under 30 seconds.
Q: Does the W17 require dedicated electrical supply or can it share a circuit?
A: The 1400W load at 230V draws 6.1A continuous current. A dedicated 13A circuit is recommended to avoid nuisance tripping when other equipment operates simultaneously. Standard UK 13A plug fitted.
Q: What material are the cooking plates and how is cleaning performed?
A: Plates are cast aluminium with industrial Teflon non-stick coating. Cleaning is performed with damp cloth while plates are warm but not hot. No abrasive pads or solvents required.
Q: How does commercial construction differ from domestic waffle makers?
A: Commercial units use heavier-gauge stainless steel, calibrated thermostats, and heating elements rated for eight-hour shifts. Plate coating thickness is triple that of consumer models. Duty cycle supports 100+ batches per day without component failure.
