Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

"The Crumbly Corner," a cosy café in York, needed a reliable way to introduce sweet and  savoury crepes to their lunchtime menu without a huge investment or kitchen refit. They chose the Modena NCM2 for its simplicity and  professional specifications.

"We were swamped with orders from the moment we put crepes on the specials board. The Modena machine is brilliant – it just keeps going. It’s simple to use, so new staff get the hang of it in minutes, and  it cooks them perfectly every time. Our customers absolutely love them."

David Chen – Owner, The Crumbly Corner

The addition of the Modena NCM2 led to a 25% increase in their average lunchtime spend within the first month.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Before first use, season the cooking plate. Heat it up, apply a thin layer of cooking oil, and  let it smoke off.
  • Ensure the machine is on a flat, stable, and  heat-resistant surface with good ventilation around it.
  • Plug directly into a suitable 13 amp socket; avoid using extension cords for safety and  consistent power.
  • Perform a test crepe or two to find your ideal temperature setting before your first service begins.

Keeping It Going

  • After each session, wipe the plate with a damp cloth and  a little oil while it's still warm (not hot!).
  • Never pour cold water onto a hot plate, as this can cause it to crack or warp over time.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel body daily with a soft cloth and  a food-safe cleaner to keep it pristine.
  • Regularly check the power cord and  plug for any signs of wear and  tear.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Crepe Maker

Not sure which crepe maker is the right fit for your business? Here are a few things to consider before you buy.

Gas vs. Electric

Electric models like this one offer plug-and-play convenience, ideal for indoor use or where gas isn't available. Gas is great for outdoor events but requires a bottle and  more setup.

Plate Size

A 40cm plate is the industry standard, creating large, impressive crepes. For smaller blinis or pancakes, you can simply use less batter on the large surface.

Single vs. Double Plate

A single plate crepe machine is perfect for most cafes and  restaurants. Only consider a double if you anticipate extremely high, non-stop demand, like at a major festival.

Build Material

Look for a stainless steel body for durability and  easy cleaning. The cooking plate should be cast iron for the best heat retention and  professional performance.

Temperature Control

Adjustable controls are non-negotiable. They allow you to perfect your technique and  cook consistently, whether you're making thin crepes or thicker American-style pancakes.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Do I need to 'season' the cooking plate before I use it?

A: Yes, it's highly recommended. Seasoning the plate with oil before the first use creates a natural non-stick surface and  protects the iron.

Q: What's the best temperature for making crepes?

A: It depends on your batter, but a great starting point is between 190°C and  200°C. You can adjust from there to get your perfect colour and  texture.

Q: Can I use this for American-style pancakes too?

A: Absolutely! This electric crepe griddle works brilliantly for thicker pancakes, blinis, or even Welsh cakes. Just adjust the temperature accordingly.

Q: What tools should I use with this crepe maker?

A: For best results, you'll want a wooden crepe spreader (the 'T' shaped tool) and  a long, thin metal or wooden spatula for easy turning and  folding.

Q: How do I clean the cooking surface properly?

A: The best way is to wipe it with a damp cloth and  a touch of oil while the plate is still warm. Avoid using soaps or harsh scouring pads as this can damage the seasoned surface.

Q: How long does the machine take to heat up?

A: From a cold start, it typically reaches its target cooking temperature in about 10-15 minutes, ready for your first crepe of the day.

Q: Is the Modena NCM2 crepe maker portable for events?

A: While it's designed as a sturdy countertop unit, its 23kg weight and  simple plug-in design make it entirely possible to transport for mobile catering events.

Q: Does it come with a plug attached?

A: Yes, it arrives fitted with a standard UK 13 amp plug, so it's ready to use straight out of the box.

Why Consistent Heat is Key to the Perfect Crepe

Ever wonder why it's so tricky to get crepes right at home? It's all about consistent heat. The Modena NCM2's heavy cooking plate acts like a thermal battery. Once it's hot, it stays hot, even when you pour on cold batter. This means no frustrating hot spots or pale, soggy patches. Think of it like a seasoned cast iron skillet versus a thin, cheap frying pan – one gives you an even, golden-brown finish every single time, while the other is a bit of a gamble. This professional crepe maker delivers that reliable result, crepe after crepe.

Who Should Buy This?
