This waffle iron will last for ages and can be passed down through the generations! I have one that’s roughly 145 years old and it’s been used at least once a week since it’s been in the family.
It's not a waffle iron, it's like a Norwegian Krumkake iron. I imagine the Swedes have a different name for it. My mother made these for us every Christmas with a special cast iron mold. Rolled up on a small conical wood rolling pin while they are hot. Fill them with whipped cream (flavored with Baileys or Grand Marnier), cherry on top. Oh god they are good. My sister still makes them every year. Thanks for the outstanding video, Torbjorn.
@@silicon.alchemist Italians have something that looks the same called pizzelle, an anise flavored wafer cookie. I wonder if they all had one origin and were traded. The design match between the different irons is perfect.
That's what I thought. That's a *_LOT_* of meticulous work! If I was doing that, I would get three quarters of the way, and there would be a major "Oops!" moment.
this video is the equivalent of watching a fireplace crackle and pop. or an aquarium full of fish, or a lava-lamp. there's this serene sense of satisfaction and calm.
Between your high level of skill set and your small bits of comedy... truly inspiring and enjoyable to watch. Thank you for the videos, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Florida, USA.
Torbjorn- a story for you.. My father taught me amazing skills! One of them a statement as follows "what are you talking about boy, if you haven't got the right thing make one" As a new dad I created my first bench from scrap pallets, which helped me make my work bench that i had to leave in the place I left.. My next work bench was made from old doors that made it possible to make my cross ply 50yr old floor board bench on which I made sooo many things. I am old now, my father would be in awe of your modern tools! You have obviously been trained by a master; and then gone on to develop those skills. Absolute respect.
Absolutely stunning. You create so many wonderful items, but this is truly a legacy item. Your children and grandchildren will treasure it for many many generations. You are such a pleasure to watch. Thank you Torbjorn for taking the time to share with all of us. The burr work was nerve-wracking to watch. Your patience is second only to Neil Pask. Keep on and Keep warm.
Thanks John! Yes it was scary in the beginning, but after a while you develop a method of bracing and limit movement to more or less one direction and rotate the work which makes it much easier. I hope you get a fantastic Christmas along with your family!
He's scribing a line, he's checking it twice... :) What a beautiful (and probably delicious) piece of work. And I love that the blacksmith strolls by the guys installing solar panels as he's picking out stock for such an artisanal and traditional object. Your vibes are immaculate.
I love this iron, so full of soul. Here is a traditional recipe from my Grandmother. They were serving Jønnbrød (Iron bread) instead of thin bread at special events, like Christmas 3 dl Thick cream 1,5 dl cold water 30 g of sugar 0,5 teaspoon of Cardemum 1,5 dl Wheat flour Steak wafers until fully brown, and lay flat to cool. Merry Christmas Torbjörn!
Oh, me oh my... After choosing the two pieces, then firing them, then shaping the hinge, and then, THEN to patiently inscribe the design. Truly, there aren't enough adjectives, there aren't enough words of praise for this fine work of art. Thank you for allowing us to watch.
This is splendid! I'm American, and part of my heritage is Norwegian. I have a traditional Norwegian utensil of this type, made by Jotul. My grandmother called the product krumkakke, and was rolled on a tapered roller instead of a straight one, so they would slip off the form easier. My recipe is similar to yours, but included eggs in the batter. As you say, the traditional utensil is made from cast iron. Mine has a separate ring, made to fit over a burner on a wood stove, but it works very well on my glass stove top. (I have an aluminum foil layer on the stove ring, to protect the glass stove top and it works very well) My iron is seasoned nicely and there is enough butter in the recipe that I do not have to oil the surfaces for each krumkakke I make. I can make and roll one every minute, when the temperature is right. Your skills are wonderful, and you have made a beautiful tool! Thank you for this video!
We call them "Isernkoken" in northern Germany and my Grandma stil makes them she just turned 88, well she has an electric iron. I liked this video imidiatly. Old craftmanship is very facinating to me combined with modern, thank you for sharing.
I'm fascinated watching you create this beautiful utensil. I have inherited one of these from my Norwegian grandmother who made krumkake for holidays. Now I'll be trying your recipe. Thanks.
My dad and I make something similar occasionally for special events. We call them Pazelles (Italian) but they look very similar to what you're making. Incredibly good with some ice cream, chocolate, fruit or whipped cream inside! Lovely work on the iron there! Love your videos as always. Merry Christmas!
This whole process shows perfectly why those Irons have this specific look and Form. It just wouldn't work propperly in any other way! Well done ,Sir. That was fun to watch.Thanks for the upload, much aprechiated. Greetings from Germany sends CarpenterBea
It's ever a great surprise to see new videos by you, Torbjörn! The waffle iron is done gracefully with elegance, precision and with love that shines through the video. I admire you so much, I don't have such patience to do my blacksmithing)). The time spent to make the video is endles! Always appreciate the quality of it. P.S. Happy New Year to you and all you family. I wish new aims to you and, of course, to attain them fully! Be healthy and happy ever. Great hello from Russia!
Lovely made, now in the winter months they taste so much better , btw we call them kniepertjes and go fantastic while spinning flax on a spinning where
Njaaaäää, nu kan man ju klippa lite...hmm. De två första blev faktiskt skrot, jag hade för hög temp, så de hann bränna innan jag fick ut dem. Man får pröva sig fram lite i början.
I have my Grandmother's Krumkake iron. She bought it from a small factory near here. (Nordicware) I make Krumkakes every Christmas and we fill them with whipped cream. Torbjörn Åhman has amazing skills to make such a beautiful wafer iron.
What a talented person. I always enjoy your projects no matter what they are. Thank You so much sir. Not only a talented blacksmith, camera man, editor ... Merry Christmas to you and your family. Have a Happy and Healthy new year my friend.
I enjoy all of your videos, my favourites however are the Christmas videos; I'm learning recipes and getting ideas for traditions to share with my family. I bet you could create an entire channel dedicated to your cooking and garden work and it would be a tremendous success.
This was amazing to watch! making these wafers is part of my family tradition! here in Denmark these wafers go by "Goderåd" me and my Grandma used to bake them everytime for christmas or any big family get together. they'd say it wasn't a real party without my grandma's "Goderåd", sadly now i'm left to hold to torch and bake them, watching how the irons we used to bake together on was so amazing, it filled me with that childhood glee i'd have when watching my grandma show me the ropes around baking the cookies and using the iron correctly! oh though another thing! my family uses another type of dough for making the "Goderåd", its a solid dough instead of the common runny one shown at 21:54 heres the recipe for any wafer makers out there! Flour: 500g Sugar: 250g Margerine: 300g 4 Eggs 1 tea spoon of vanilla sugar let the margerine heat to room temperature . mix everything together, place in a bowl with a cloth over and chill for 24 hours or more then get a plate and roll out small balls out of the bigger dough ball (use plenty of flour its quite sticky) place the small dough balls inside the iron and press down, tada! Thanks for the lovely video Torbjørn it was nice getting a view into how the irons i use are made! hope you have a great christmas and a happy new year!
Another great video! And now I’m hungry thanks for that! One small safety consideration, never use your hand to remove the long stringy award from the lathe, especially while the chuck is spinning, forge up a hook for pulling them away in case they get caught by the chuck, they could take your fingers or at the very least leave you with a nasty cut. Sorry about the rant, I hope you and your family have a safe and happy holiday!
Brother Torbjörn! It’s been a while since we visited last! My forging has taken a back seat the last several months. Totally rebuilt an antique tractor and built two race cars instead. What a great project! Beautiful work as always. Your filing time is commendable. I tend to spend less time with it. Great design despite cheating with a laser! Isn’t the Foredom an amazing tool?! Many skills involved with your waffle iron! Beautiful and useful. While I have been away, you remain one of my few remaining heros! God Bless you and family! Happy New Years! The wife and I are in Gruene Texas. Three nights at Gruene Hall - oldest dance hall in Texas. Google it. The Mavericks are playing all three nights making this the 24th time we have seen them! Raise hell brother! Texas Style! Love to all!
🔥🔥🔥 Greetings from Wisconsin! This brings back memories of my childhood and the Norwegian Krumkake we would make each year for celebrations and the holidays. Thank you for showing how the iron is made.
There is not another video on youtube that has closed out the 2022 year with a better video than this one! Thank you and Merry Christmas to you Torbjörn Åhman and your family!
We watched this over dinner. My wife was so impressed at the beautiful utensil you created. I think you have a new fan. 😅 We're looking forward to trying our own version of rullrån soon. Finally, God jul! Merry Christmas to you and your family.
Hello from NYC! And thanks for sharing your amazing skills with all of us! This wafer iron is out of this world! I loved watching the whole video and can’t wait to watch more of your videos! And it was so cute when your kitty is sitting near you when you started making the wafers! Almost like “are you making some for me too?” 😂 Plus thanks for the recipe! God bless you and hope you have a wonderful year! 🙏🏼❤️
When you redo it, place the logo at the top so it is still visible once rolled! Lol This is a really nice and awesome waffle maker. Thumbs up for the engraving. Was expecting it to be cooked over open fire but induction makes it nice and controlled!
Truly superb! Merry Christmas to you and your family, Torbjörn! Thanks so much for all your videos this year, they have all been amazing, and are always something to very much look forward to! Cheers!
Merry Christmas to you and your family. I’ve enjoyed watching your craftsmanship and sharing it with other makers here in the USA. Continued success in the new year!
The entire time I was thinking to myself, those grooves aren't going to be deep enough for waffles! Then I re-read the title and it all made sense. Great work as always! I always enjoy your level of craftsmanship
Excellent! When I saw you laser the pattern on the face I thought you might be setting up to etch of engrave the pattern. Then watching you engrave it manually with only a Dremel tool I was amazed. That is a lot of work. Nice craftsmanship.
I was just wandering the other day what you might present us as special Swedish Christmas food this year, Torbjörn, but this even beats my highest dreams, making your own waver iron plus recipe, wow. What a tremendous piece of fine work, how many hours did you spend on only engraving? But you had me for one moment, I was almost in shock when you set the plates on the Laser Cutter... this can’t be true, he's not really doing it this way ... phew, only for transfer, ok, granted :) Wishing you and all your family, including your cat ;) , a merry Christmas. Sven.
I was thinking, you should have also put a touch mark on the side that has the engraved one. That way you'll know which way is right when you roll them so it's on the outside of the wafer. Very beautiful work. Makes me miss the holidays with my mother when she would make these for us.
Totally awesome vid - 10*. Krumkake with gluwine. Add some sweet cream and lingonberry sauce with the krumkake - and spice up the hot gluwine with wassail and some booze - and one can get their party on !!! Happy Happy Merry Merry Happy Happy Torbjorn !!!
Mäster Åhman!✊👌😀 Tokfint arbete!😀🙏 Roligt att det faktiskt finns någon man kan kalla En på miljonen, för ingen gör det du gör😀 Tack för en alldeles lysande uppvisning, och God Jul till dig och dina😀🙏🎄🎁🎅
Absolutely fantastic as expected! Thank you for entertaining this old man for all this time. I wish the very best of health and happiness to Mr Åhman, his family, and everyone watching. Fantastic holidays!
Thank you. A very nicely done project. I have done a similar thing with Marquesitas, but not to your fabrication standards. I will have to try your recipe one of these days.
Forging and food in the same video….👍. Outstanding pattern, looks like something that would definitely make the wafers taste better, I was “drooling “ by the end of the video. Have a wonderful time with your family and friends, (and we can’t forget puss) this Christmas. Thanks for all the great videos you’ve given us this year, I look forward with enthusiasm for each new edition. Love to meet you one day. Regards from your friend Down Under.
Thanks Outback! Merry Christmas!! Have you managed to dress the palm tree yet? :) Seriously though... do you even have Christmas trees like we on the northern hemisphere?
@@torbjornahman Yep, plastic ones !😂🤣😜. Perhaps you could forge us a steel Christmas tree!! Seriously, as most Aussies are of British or European decent we follow all the traditional Christmas customs, Santa etc, but we have added a few new customs of our own. Barbecues, swimming, outside activities as there’s no snow. The old Southern Hemisphere, everything’s back the front down here you know 🤪.
Forgot to mention, everyone plays cricket in the backyard on Christmas Day, you know all about cricket don’t you? They play it in Sweden don’t they? When you come out and visit me I’ll teach you all about the wonderful game of cricket!!👌
@@outbackladas Cool, well, I can't say for sure but I think there are a few enthusiasts, there always are :) Probably not playing on Christmas day though....

Thanks 👍
Nothing beats Torbjorn making kitchen utensils and immediately using them and immediately eating what he cooked
Merry Christmas!
And it all works😀👌 Amazing in every way😀
:) Ha ha, Merry Christmas!
I said to myself, "surely he's not going to engrave that pattern by hand?" Needless to say...
Another triumph. God jul, Mr. A!
Was totally expecting that setup to be a precursor to some variety of acid etching the pattern in.
That's what I thought. That's a *_LOT_* of meticulous work! If I was doing that, I would get three quarters of the way, and there would be a major "Oops!" moment.
It's nice to see that cats are consistently curious in all households, at least when it comes to food preparation. =D
He he, yes food is on their mind all the time....
So sweet of you to bring kitty up to see and sniff!
this video is the equivalent of watching a fireplace crackle and pop. or an aquarium full of fish, or a lava-lamp.
there's this serene sense of satisfaction and calm.
Wafers with the TA logo on them are scientifically proven to taste better.
Backwards it says ÅT in Swedish, 'ate' in English 😉😋
Alone, in the dark, like a good Norseman.
Facts
100 percent true
And the double blind peer reviewers: I heard you, you are having seconds, PUT THAT BACK!
It’s always nice to see a blacksmith that didn’t die out in the pandemic
Pure craftsmanship, no chat, no rubbish background 'music'. Beautiful... Thank you Torbjörn!
Merry Christmas Torbjörn! Love the waffle iron and thoroughly enjoyed the video! :)
Neil, that warms my heart! Thank you and have a fantastic new year!!

The part where he showed his face eyeballing the curve forging before the lathe was what really made this for me
Руки у вас золотые...берегите их , не убирайте стружку с токарного станка РУКАМИ ❗
:)
Seeing the new tools used makes me appreciate the craft more
Our ancestor really were tough
Saw the thumbnail and went "oh god, he's going to engrave that pattern by hand, isn't he?" Well, wasn't too far off.
Outstanding work as always.
Very nice, they look fantastic...
Absolutely splendid. I love knowing traditional things are still being remembered. Well done.
13:47 thought I was watching Alec Steele for a moment, half expecting the gold inlay to come up next! Loved this. Merry Christmas
Ha ha, no gold here yet.... Merry Christmas!
I love this iron, so full of soul. Here is a traditional recipe from my Grandmother. They were serving Jønnbrød (Iron bread) instead of thin bread at special events, like Christmas
3 dl Thick cream

0,5 teaspoon of Cardemum
1,5 dl Wheat flour
Steak wafers until fully brown, and lay flat to cool.
Merry Christmas Torbjörn!
Cool, thanks!
Hi, I wanted to make this batter from your recipe. I apologize I don't know what the dl is, is it tablespoon? Thanks!!
@@saturnia1146 Deciliter = 0.1 Liter (about half a cup)
Hi! With american measurement it would be:
10 Oz Thick cream
5 Oz cold water
30 g / 2 tablespoons of sugar
0,5 teaspoon of Cardemum
5 Oz Wheat flour
Forge and cooking! A new tool is born for sharing the most beautiful gift, food! :)
Super enjoyable. The fastest 27 mins ever!
Every time I see Torbjorn make or use something, I think how can this man be any more legendary? And BOOM! He steps it up a level!
:) Thanks
Oh, me oh my... After choosing the two pieces, then firing them, then shaping the hinge, and then, THEN to patiently inscribe the design. Truly, there aren't enough adjectives, there aren't enough words of praise for this fine work of art.
Thank you for allowing us to watch.
Thank you Thomas!

This is splendid! I'm American, and part of my heritage is Norwegian. I have a traditional Norwegian utensil of this type, made by Jotul.

Mine has a separate ring, made to fit over a burner on a wood stove, but it works very well on my glass stove top.

I can make and roll one every minute, when the temperature is right. Your skills are wonderful, and you have made a beautiful tool! Thank you for this video!
Nice! Thank you!
Using the furnace to apply a seasoning coat with canola oil was pretty clever.
Watching your creations come to life is so very therapeutic. Thank you for taking the time to share your craftsmanship with us.

Merry Christmas! Loved the humour in this video!
This was amazing to watch! making these wafers is part of my family tradition!
here in Denmark these wafers go by "Goderåd" me and my Grandma used to bake them everytime for christmas or any big family get together.
they'd say it wasn't a real party without my grandma's "Goderåd", sadly now i'm left to hold to torch and bake them, watching how the irons we used to bake together on was so amazing, it filled me with that childhood glee i'd have when watching my grandma show me the ropes around baking the cookies and using the iron correctly!
oh though another thing! my family uses another type of dough for making the "Goderåd", its a solid dough instead of the common runny one shown at 21:54
heres the recipe for any wafer makers out there!
Flour: 500g
Sugar: 250g
Margerine: 300g
4 Eggs
1 tea spoon of vanilla sugar
let the margerine heat to room temperature .
mix everything together, place in a bowl with a cloth over and chill for 24 hours or more
then get a plate and roll out small balls out of the bigger dough ball (use plenty of flour its quite sticky)
place the small dough balls inside the iron and press down, tada!
Thanks for the lovely video Torbjørn it was nice getting a view into how the irons i use are made! hope you have a great christmas and a happy new year!
Thank you! That was nice to read! I just want to add that this is not how these usually are made. The majority is simply cast iron.
Очень уважаю этого мастера! Настоящий волшебник! Любое его изделие-это произведение искусства.
очень согласен! Удачных проектов ему в новом году....👍
You are a genius!
Another great video! And now I’m hungry thanks for that! One small safety consideration, never use your hand to remove the long stringy award from the lathe, especially while the chuck is spinning, forge up a hook for pulling them away in case they get caught by the chuck, they could take your fingers or at the very least leave you with a nasty cut.

Sven.
:) :) Lovely to hear! Thank you and Merry Christmas Sven!
I was thinking, you should have also put a touch mark on the side that has the engraved one. That way you'll know which way is right when you roll them so it's on the outside of the wafer.
Very beautiful work. Makes me miss the holidays with my mother when she would make these for us.
Totally awesome vid - 10*. Krumkake with gluwine. Add some sweet cream and lingonberry sauce with the krumkake - and spice up the hot gluwine with wassail and some booze - and one can get their party on !!! Happy Happy Merry Merry Happy Happy Torbjorn !!!
Sounds great! Merry Christmas!
Hi.
For these tubes, also whipped cream. The taste of my childhood.
Mäster Åhman!✊👌😀 Tokfint arbete!😀🙏 Roligt att det faktiskt finns någon man kan kalla En på miljonen, för ingen gör det du gör😀 Tack för en alldeles lysande uppvisning, och God Jul till dig och dina😀🙏🎄🎁🎅
Det är svårt att hitta bättre underhållning än att följa hur du tillverkar dina olika alster. Ha nu en riktigt God Jul 🤶
Tack, man rodnar lätt av alla fina ord! GOD JUL!
Beautiful wafle iron. A hug (from Argentina)
Браво, маэстро! Поздравляю Вас и Вашу семью с наступающим Новым годом! Здоровья, мира, процветания!
Thanks!! Merry Christmas!
That was awesome from start to finish. 🌸✨
Nice cup size choice 😂. By the way it also makes great ice cream cones🍦 too. Happy holidays and a shiny new year everybody 😊
I have to try some cones when the sun gets back in may or so..... ha ha..
You should also try making crepes/blintzes!
this is the first video of a Machinist/metal worker using a respirator or any sort of mask filter. thank you sir o7
Glædelig jul fra Danmark, jeg elsker at se dine videoer! :)
Tack!
Another awesome project. Thanks for having us along to watch!
Ett av de vackraste arbeten jag sett sedan jag började på den här kanalen. Torbjörn Jag önskar dig en god jul och ett gott nytt år.
Tack!!
Cool, it can make icecream cones too. I bet those wafer cookies would be really good filled with whipped cream.
Absolutely fantastic as expected! Thank you for entertaining this old man for all this time. I wish the very best of health and happiness to Mr Åhman, his family, and everyone watching. Fantastic holidays!
Thank you Wesley! Merry Christmas!
Thank you. A very nicely done project. I have done a similar thing with Marquesitas, but not to your fabrication standards. I will have to try your recipe one of these days.
Forging and food in the same video….👍. Outstanding pattern, looks like something that would definitely make the wafers taste better, I was “drooling “ by the end of the video. Have a wonderful time with your family and friends, (and we can’t forget puss) this Christmas. Thanks for all the great videos you’ve given us this year, I look forward with enthusiasm for each new edition. Love to meet you one day. Regards from your friend Down Under.
Thanks Outback! Merry Christmas!! Have you managed to dress the palm tree yet? :) Seriously though... do you even have Christmas trees like we on the northern hemisphere?
@@torbjornahman Yep, plastic ones !😂🤣😜. Perhaps you could forge us a steel Christmas tree!! Seriously, as most Aussies are of British or European decent we follow all the traditional Christmas customs, Santa etc, but we have added a few new customs of our own. Barbecues, swimming, outside activities as there’s no snow. The old Southern Hemisphere, everything’s back the front down here you know 🤪.
Forgot to mention, everyone plays cricket in the backyard on Christmas Day, you know all about cricket don’t you? They play it in Sweden don’t they? When you come out and visit me I’ll teach you all about the wonderful game of cricket!!👌
@@outbackladas Cool, well, I can't say for sure but I think there are a few enthusiasts, there always are :) Probably not playing on Christmas day though....
Beautifully done.
