The Chef Pro FBM178 can be used to make several sorts of flatbread like tortillas, roti, quadrilles, chapattis, and wraps. Just add your favorite herbs and spices and make them as sweet or spicy as you like. You can make flatbread as big as 8” with it, and the best is that your flatbread is evenly cooked. The plates are multiple times Teflon treated for non-stick purposes. So much less chance on badly burned flatbread and the non-stick makes cleaning the heating plates easy to clean too.

When turning on the power, the red power light will glow. After just minutes, the baking temperature is reached, and the yellow indicator light will turn yellow. The Chef Pro FBM178 always provides the perfect temperature for making fresh homemade tortillas. Reheating tortillas or your flatbread needs some monitoring from time to time.

The power of this tortilla maker is 850 Watts and provides quick baking capacity. In general, it can handle any dough, but you will have to see for yourself which dough recipe will make the perfect tortilla or wrap for you. The press of the upper and lower plate functions great and assures a perfect, even tick (or thin) tortilla.

It is essential, though, to align your dough ball at the center of the lower plate. Just adjust the time of pressing to the desired size of a tortilla. The longer you hold it, the thinner your flatbread will be. In between, let steam escape from the grids to prevent the lacing of your dough. For safe and comfortable use, the Chef Pro FBM has a cool-touch handle. Besides delicious regular flatbread, you can, of course, also make specials like gluten-free tortillas or wraps if your guest is gluten intolerant.

The exterior housing of the Chef Pro FBM178 is made of a durable artificial material that is combined with chromed steel to handle the heat easily. Still cleaning the chromed steel housing is a bit hard to do. So try not to mess any dough on the chromed housing because it will immediately cause stains. On the other hand, the plates are non-stick treated and easy to clean. When you apply a bit of vegetable oil on the plates before baking, they are even more comfortable to clean.

Always let plates cool down first. After washing with just a damp cloth you can store the power cord in the storage space, and the total unit can easily be saved because it can stand on its end. The Chef Pro FBM178 comes with a manual booklet that provides excellent recipes. The advantage of using these is that your dough for flatbread will be guaranteed perfect. The Chef Pro FBM178 comes with a one-year warranty, of course. If you want an ideal tortilla maker, then this one is for you.
