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.

NOTE:
The Adjustable Height Control
can be moved to accommodate

clip forwards or backwards along
the arm.
OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE PANINI PRESS
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.
