I've never used a crisper. So oil doesn't drip to the bottom burner, do you put a bake pan on the bottom? Just realize, I just have one rack. Just bought the breville mini toaster oven.

Cover holes with foil , or better use a small elevated rack what fits in a pan without holes .

I have this and love it for reheating pizza, rolls, and things like that...any food that is extremely messy or greasy or could drip thru holes would probably not be a good idea. I usually use the baking pan with a mini rack for things that have the potential to drip on the heating element.

I just use it to reheat food, biscuits, pizza, etc. Occasionally it does drip through but then I just wipe the spill off the bottom of the toaster. You could put a piece of foil on the bottom of the toaster if you are reheating something extra juicy.

In a normal oven the lower you place the pan on the rack the hotter the bottom will get and it will brown. It worked for me!

This is a non-stick pan and consequently the oil does not stick. What I normally do in your case scenario is wash it before steaming. It is a very easy job or alternately you can drain the oil then use paper towel to dry off any left over oil.

It comes with a spray bottle that you can spray the food with to get it crisper. I put olive oil or peanut oil in mine and just spray the food that you would normally fry. I don't soak the food.

I make a paste with water and baking soda and scrub with paper towel. Only needs done once a month if you cook a lot. Love the pans! I haven't used metal in them. Kind of heavy, but cooks amazing and NOTHING sticks. No need for oil to fry things (unless desire different texture). Hope it helps!

I have this toaster oven and have used it to toast numerous times and both sides get toasted. I just put it right on the rack and not on a pan - not sure if that makes a difference.

I use a small toaster oven, enough for 2 shells. Use the recommend time and heat, and they were good.

You do not want to cook directly on the liner. If you are unable to put this on the bottom of you oven i would put 1 rack on the lowest setting possible then put the liner on that then on the next rack put your food you are cooking. Another option out be to use a cookie sheet or a silpat

We put the slice on the rack (not a pan) in our toaster over and turn it up as high as it will go. I think it has something to do with how dark the bread is (darker type bread seems to take longer to toast) as well as how dense it is. I don't think it will ever get as "toasty" as regular bread due to the density, but you can achieve a satisfactorily toasted piece usually. I have also put it into a non-stick fry pan - with no oil or butter- and toasted it there. That has worked for me.Good luck.

Ours are very crisp. There is a control for cook time / browness. In the picture its on the base on the left. Not sure when the default is, but I think those that prefer the softer product as well as the crisper crowd are both able to be satisfied with what this machine can do.

i not using the double burner for cooking...im actually using for my art works...melting wax for encaustics paintings. sorry that i can't be of help.

You have to use a cookie sheet. The sil pat is floppy... It isn't sturdy enough to lay on the oven racks. However, the cookies (or anything else you bake on it) will not stick and it creates a perfect browning on the bottom. Easiest clean up ever.

I think this depends on how much oil you use and what you are cooking and if the oil splatters outside the pan onto the hot burner because this pan has very low sides. There can be some smoke and it can get a little messy.

Collette, wash it out and dry it well................fill it almost to the top and bake it in the oven at 325 for a hour or so. let it cool and throw the oil away. Wipe it dry and it should be good to go.

I would try using extra virgin olive oil. I use my machine mostly for making dough so I can make a 2 pound batch and use it for various food, like pizza, rolls, garlic bread, etc. Perhaps you could try the olive oil to just make the dough then bake it in your oven for better control?

There may be some sticking, but I also (as other reviewers mentioned) only use a small amount of oil in the bottom of the pan, thus keeping it to a minimum. Additionally, I don't have to use very high heat for braising, compared to other brands of cookware that I own. Very efficient and even heat distribution. GJM

What were you cooking? I have never had anything stick to mine, I can literally burn a piece of cheese to my frying pan and it will slide rite off.... I do use olive oil in a Misto oil sprayer http://www.amazon.com/Misto-Brushed-Aluminum-Olive-Sprayer/dp/B00004SPZV/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1388543986&sr=8-2&keywords=misto with olive oil in it... These pans do not need high heat, I have noticed low is like medium in other pans and a little under medium is like high, they are very conductive, try lowering your heat and don't put food on a cold pan.
