What to do if Antunes Kitchen Appliance steams, but requires two or more cycles to melt cheese?

If your Antunes Kitchen Appliance steams but needs two or more cycles to melt cheese, several factors could be at play. First, check that the generator surface temperature is between 380-420°F. Also, verify the generator surface has a thin calcium coating. Ensure the wing nut is tight, and if steam noticeably escapes around the generator cover, replace it. Confirm the water pressure regulator is set to 20-25 psi and adjust if needed. Calibrate the unit for proper water volume. Make sure the steam ports are not blocked and clean them if necessary. Finally, check the quick disconnect at the unit's rear, ensuring the white plastic piece protrudes about 1/8” from the metal.
