Waffle Maker

Good Morning! So I got a European waffle maker, it has 5 hearts connected to each other a couple months before I found out I had Celiac. I only used it a few times with gluten filled waffle batter. Since then, I have only used gluten free waffle batter for my children. I was wondering, could it be safe for me to eat from that waffle maker? If not now, maybe eventually? Does Gluten just permanently stay there even after wiping down and not using gluten batter anymore? I ask because I have always wanted a waffle maker like this and I hope I can use it for myself some day. Just wondering if anyone knows info related to this. Thanks for reading.

Should be safe I would think, especially if cleaned well. Can you scrub the surface? Is it submersible? If not can you scrub and clean the surface without submerging it?

Thanks. It is not submersible, but I can wipe it off. I only used it a few times with gluten and now only gluten free for 4 months now. I am still figuring this new lifestyle out.

I would use some kind of brush and soapy water to get down into the valleys just to make sure.

@Ahawk,

Welcome to the forum! 

I agree with @trents. 

Clean the waffle maker as best you can and enjoy your waffles and waffle maker!

Clean well as others have said, use a toothbrush or brush of some kind to clean out all corners, edges, valleys, etc.  After all that cleaning, I would also make a batch of gluten free waffle mix and make a bunch of waffles and throw them out, don't eat those.  Perhaps that will help pick up any remaining stuck on or hard to get stuff.  I did this with one pan I didn't want to toss and I didn't have any issues that I know of.

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By larc · Posted

      I don't take any medicine for Afib since it only happens after exposure to gluten. My cardiologist doesn't agree with me. My feeling is that since I get Afib and higher blood pressure after accidentally ingesting gluten if I took medicine for it it would only mask my symptoms of gluten exposure.

      Many people with celiac disease, especially those who are in the 0-2 year range of their recovery, have additional food intolerance issues which could be temporary. To figure this out you may need to keep a food diary and do an elimination diet over a few months. Some common food intolerance issues are dairy/casein, eggs, corn, oats, and soy. The good news is that after your gut heals (for most people who are 100% gluten-free this will take several months to two years) you may be able to slowly add some these items back into your diet after the damaged villi heal.

      Do you need to take medication for you Afib issues?

      How many people here are aware that there are 9 types of gluten that Celiacs should be aware of?

      By Liquid lunch · Posted

      You might find cordyceps and reishi tincture helps, even if you identify which lectins you react to with an igg test there is still cross contamination and secondary contamination via cows and chickens that have eaten soy, I found mushroom tinctures to be the last piece of the puzzle, they stop you producing the antibodies.
