For a modern, quality crepe maker a good brand to consider is Krampouz. Based in Brittany, France (home of the crepe, no less!), Krampouz manufactures crepe makers for both domestic and commercial kitchens and have done so since 1949. They also have a wide range of machines for making waffles, pancakes, blinis, tacos and ice cream wafers. Krampouz places great emphasis on heat distribution, temperature stability, a high quality of cooking surface and comfortable working conditions to ensure that their products continue to keep customers happy, whether they make crepes at work or home.
There are many choices for the home kitchen – the “Family Range” of appliances. The Krampouz Tibos Electric Crepe Maker (retailing at $185.00 from Amazon) incorporates the Krampouz-patented batter spreader function and is a crepe maker with a stylish look and the ability to make big, fine crepes really quickly. Its elements include a 13 inch griddle with non-stick surface, indicator light, flexible thermostat and it comes with a plastic batter spreader, plastic ladle, wooden spatula, wooden scraper, cleaning brush, water jug, detailed instructions and booklet containing useful crepe recipes from all over the world.
The electric Diabolo model is similar in size and price to the Tibos, but is available in three different colors: fuchsia, green and black, allowing you to go for a more funky look and match your crepe machine to your kitchen decor.
The Mini Krampouz Crepe Passion Four Maker (which is available at www.dvorsons.com for $144.00) has four separate 5.5 inch depressions, suitable for making small crepes, pancakes, tacos and blinis. Like the Tibos model, it is electric with a non-stick surface, indicator light and adjustable thermostat. It has a stainless steel surround, weighs lbs. and comes with accessories including two ladles, six spatulas and an instruction manual which includes recipes.
There is also a gas-powered crepe machine (model number CGBIM4) which requires a butane propane gas supply – this is suitable for outdoor use only as the control setting tap has no safety control.
For the professional kitchen, a Krampouz Crepe Maker is a widely recommended brand. Its advantages include a uniformity of heat over the entire surface, which is essential to successful crepe making. The innovative 6000 range removes the requirement to season the griddle; it has an advanced enameled cast iron griddle.
www.dvorsons.com offers a selection of Krampouz commercial electric crepe machines. The Krampouz CEBIF4 ($844.00) has a round base, a 15.5 inch plate of durable cast iron, plastic protective covers on its three feet and a one year warranty. The Krampouz CECIF4 ($995.00) is a similar model with the same size of plate, but has a square-shaped base and is lbs. heavier.
The Krampouz CECIJ4 has two cast iron griddles measuring 15.5 inches each and retails at $1,585.00.
www.krampouz.com is the official website (translated from the original French website). It features all Krampouz products with full specifications, and you can download a catalog from the site. Krampouz also make a range of crepe making accessories, including both wooden and stainless steel crepe spatulas in many different sizes, flat and round batter spreaders, domestic and professional ladles, cleaning pads and abrasive stones to clean the griddles and different crepe sets which include a selection of the tools you need to make the perfect crepe. The Krampouz recipe booklet is also a good investment, and allows you to experiment with different types of crepe.
Some Ebay stores sell new Krampouz crepe machines for both domestic and commercial use. Check that they include the manufacturer’s warranty and that you know what the returns policy is before you commit to a purchase.
By doing some research online, or looking at what’s available in your local mall or department store, you should be able to find the Krampouz crepe machine that is perfect for you.
