What are the benefits of using a crepe maker?
There are numerous benefits to using a professional crepe maker such as:
Consistency: These machines are designed to produce uniform crepes every time. This eliminates misshaped and inconsistent variations that can occur when making them by hand.

Ease of use: Crepe makers are incredibly user-friendly. With precise temperature control and easy-to-follow instructions, any member of the kitchen staff can make perfect crepes.
Efficiency: Professional crepe makers are designed for efficiency, using less energy than traditional stovetop methods. This saves you time and money and makes them a more environmentally friendly option.
How do you use a professional crepe maker?
To achieve optimal results with your appliance, follow these steps:
Begin by allowing the appliance to heat up to the desired temperature. You can easily adjust this using the convenient rotary button. The indicator light will signal when the temperature has reached the set level.
Once the desired temperature is reached, evenly distribute a few drops of oil across the entire griddle. A special sponge can be used to do this.
Quickly spread the batter across the entire baking griddle using the provided wooden batter spreader. It's important to complete this step as quickly as possible.
After approximately one minute, use a flat spatula to carefully flip the crepe to cook the other side.
Once the crepe is fully cooked, place it in the storage drawer located under the crepe plate to keep it warm until you are ready to serve.
What type of crepe makers does Maxima offer?
Maxima offers two crepe maker models: a single crepe maker and a double crepe maker.
Both models feature a crepe plate size of 40cm and include a batter spreader.
You can also purchase handy accessories to make the process of preparing crepes even easier. For example, a 1,3 or 1,6L stainless steel batter dispenser is useful for easily distributing batter on the crepe plate.
How to clean a crepe maker
When using Maxima's crepe makers, it's important to keep the crepe griddle clean during baking.
To ensure optimal performance, follow these steps:
- Switch off the crepe maker and unplug it from the wall socket after use. Wait for the plate to cool down until it's no longer hot but still warm to the touch.
- Use a little warm water, a sponge or a damp cloth to gently remove any leftover residue.
- Avoid using aggressive cleaning products and scraping the plate with sharp objects to preserve the black non-stick coating.
- Dry the plate with a soft cloth to prevent moisture accumulation.
- You can also wipe the stainless steel exterior with a cloth to maintain its cleanliness.
By following these guidelines, you can ensure that your Maxima crepe maker remains in excellent condition, providing you with a clean and hygienic appliance for all your baking needs.
