Are you kidding me?! I can't believe it's this simple and yet it really works! I wanted to throw away my waffle maker because it's such a hard task to clean it up! You're so smart, thanks for sharing! You saved the earth and saved me money!!! (It's been 6 years since you posted this. I hope you and your family are doing well.)

I've used an All-Clad Belgian Waffle maker for like 15 years? It's a great appliance BUT, it's so not easy to clean. I tried this technique, and it really helped. Here's how I did it: Preheat the waffle maker on high, and slowly pour water into the grates. (It'll bubble and sputter, be careful), slowly close the lid so it can perform its magic. Let the heat cook off the steam. After a few minutes, turn if off/unplug the chord from the outlet, and open the lid. All of the baked-on stuff should be loose enough to remove, I used a very small wooden spoon to work between the grates. Take a microfiber cloth, lay it on the grates, and moisten it with water, close the lid. Eventually, open the lid, and I used both the cloth and the spoon to get out the little bits I missed. Now, the lids open as it air dries. Yes, it was fussy, if you have the same style of the maker, there's no getting around it, this is what you are going to have to do. The new waffle irons have removable grates, that'll be what I purchase if I ever upgrade.

After using paper towels and trying other methods, I started doing this as well. It works! Just using paper towels I wasn't able to get all of the oil/grease off from around the rim and sometimes the waffles would stick the next time I used it. If you have burnt on oil it may take several times to get it all off using this method, but it will come off.

Hubby was trying to clean and eventually got it just as I found your fab video, so it will be a great help next time. Thank you so much

This worked great! I don't have the double fancy waffle Iron where it has a holder to flip it. So I have to be really careful. I poured it on the bottom griddle first and let it steam and turned it upside down using a towel and holding only the plastic areas. Then I did the same thing to the top. Worked great. But BE VERY CAREFUL not to touch the metal because it is SUPER HOT of course! Thank you!!

Hands down, the best waffle maker I've ever seen/used. Don't know why they quit making them. I tried to find a new one online, but no success. Other than making great waffles, the best feature was the removeable grid. You could wash it in the sink or dishwasher. Loved that!

Hey Kathy, I use my a bit of my left overs waffle batter and mix it with water to achieve a runny batter. Then I pour the batter into a heated iron without any oil sprayed. The batter will pick up all the grease and small spots you can't get from a sponge. I tend to scrub the iron first before adding the batter. I find using water and detergent does't clean the iron perfectly as I have a iron waffle that doesn't turn like the on in the video. Hope this helps : ))

This doesn't work at all for me. My Belgian waffle maker, though non-stick, requires spray oil or butter or it's glued to the maker. Boiling water inside it later doesn't get rid of the extra grease.

I’ve never used butter in mine, I use cooking spray. There shouldn’t be anything left in your waffle maker other than waffle crumbs or batter that might have overflowed. If there’s anything oily you might wanna use a different spray. This video is several years old and I’m still using the same waffle iron and same cleaning technique. Never had any issues.

@@ChristysCookingLifestyle I use the spray and it instantly burns/browns a tad the instant you put it on a preheated iron. Not knowing offhand what spray she's using, it's entirely possibly it doesn't have a high enough smoke point. Thanks for that suggestion.

I think I would unplug it before pouring that water on it. Emergency room visits can be expensive.

If you plan on submerging it, yes. Waffle batter is wet too, no need to unplug it before pouring the batter. You can definitely unplug if you wish. Over 15 years of using this method, same waffle iron and zero issues.

juan abelardo, never had any oil stick to mine. Once you heat it up, it should be easy to wipe away any oil or residue. I use my waffle iron every couple of weeks. This is the only way I've ever cleaned it up.

or buy a waffle maker with removable plates.

Just curious, if you have removable plates, why watch a video showing how to clean your waffle maker? The majority of the waffle makers don’t have them, especially ones on the higher end like Waring.

OK. Been using a ChefMate for five days. FRUSTRATED because my waffles always stick and I have to flip them like a pancake in a skillet because the bottom does not cook. I know---it's the bottom that sticks--the uncooked or only slightly cooked side. So that is the problem. Only the top gets done. So now I am looking for professional ways to clean it and this method does not work. Been waiting over five minutes. It does not steam. I think I need a real waffle maker. I am using what my Mom had left here. She never had internet to get anything good quality. I will have to go online to buy what seems to be every you-tubers choice of a waffle iron.

Thank you, Christy. This Chefmate is going to the trash, not to the thrift store!. Evidently Mom wasn't happy with it and had another one here. It is still in the box. I will try that once or twice and if both sides do not cook at the same time, out that one goes, too.

The plates are designed to get wet, like waffle batter, it’s wet. You can unplug it once it’s hot and it will still steam it. It’s how I clean mine, same way over 6 years now, zero issues.
