OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE Panini Press

Toasting Open Sandwich 'Melts'

Your panini press has an Adjustable Height Control feature which allows you to fix the top plate to a range of positions above the bottom plate. This allows your panini press to be used as an open toaster ideal for toasting open sandwich style ‘melts’.

It can also be used for toasting sandwiches and snacks where you don’t need to apply the weight of the top plate.

Open sandwich melts

1.Allow the panini press to pre-heat until the green ‘READY’ light illuminates.

2.Place sandwich to be melted on bottom plate.

3.Move the Adjustable Height Control clip on the right hand side of the panini press to the desired height (see Fig. 2).

4.Slowly lower the top plate until it rests on the Adjustable Height Control clip.

5.The top plate will radiate the desired heat to melt ingredients such as cheese.

6.Toasting ‘melts’ should take approximately 3-4 minutes. However exact toasting time will be a matter of taste. It will also depend on the height of the top plate.

NOTE:

The panini press should be used to heat sandwich fillings and deli meats or reheat pre-cooked fillings. Always ensure uncooked meats are cooked before using them

as sandwich fillings in toasted sandwiches.

Adjustable Height Control

Toasts or melts any bread thickness in minutes.

NOTE:

The Adjustable Height Control can be moved to accommodate thick or thin melts by sliding the clip forwards or backwards along the arm.

Hints for best results

Bread

Most types of bread can be used; white, wholemeal, kibbled wheat, wholegrain, raisin loaf and so on. The panini press is ideal for toasting focaccia, Turkish bread, baguette as well as bread rolls. Raisin bread, brioche or other sweet breads which contain a high sugar content will tend to brown quicker.

Filings

Try to use canned or pre-cooked fruit as fresh fruit may give off excessive juices when heated. Be careful when biting into paninis containing fillings such as cheese and tomato or jam as they retain heat and can burn if eaten too quickly.

Versatility

The flat bottom plate design makes the panini press ideal for toasting plain bread and Turkish bread without any fillings or spreads. The flat bottom plate is also perfect for cooking breakfast items such as eggs and pancakes.

Fat free snacks

Due to the non-stick flat plate design, it is not necessary to use any butter or margarine on the outside of your toasted snacks.

NOTE:

When using the flat bottom plate to cook breakfast items, move the Adjustable Height Control clip so that the top plate floats above the food. The top plate will radiate heat onto the food, shortening the cooking time.
