11. Grease, butter and vegetable oil – Grease can make bread soften and delay storage life. Butter
should be melted or chopped to small particles before using.
12. Baking powder – Baking powder is used for rising the Ultra Fast bread and cake. As it does not
need rise time, and it can produce the air, the air will form bubble to soften the texture of bread
utilizing chemical principle.
13. Soda – It is similar with baking powder. It can also used in combination with baking powder.
14. Water and other liquid – Water is essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking, water
temperature between 200C and 250C is the best. The water may be replaced with fresh milk or
water mixed with 2% milk powder, which may enhance bread flavor and improve crust color. Some
recipes may call for juice for the purpose of enhancing bread flavor, e.g. apple juice, orange juice,
lemon juice and so on.
INGREDIENTS MEASUREMENT
One of important step for making good bread is proper amount of ingredients. It is strongly suggested
that use measuring cup or measuring spoon to obtain accurate amount, otherwise the bread will be
largely influenced.
Weighing liquid ingredients
Water, fresh milk or milk powder solution should be measured with measuring cups. Observe the
level of the measuring cup with your eyes horizontally. When you measure cooking oil or other
ingredients, clean the measuring cup thoroughly without any other ingredients.
Dry measurements
Dry measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once
filled, leveling off with a knife. Scooping or tapping a measuring cup with more than is required.
This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. When measuring small amounts of dry
ingredients, the measuring spoon must be used. Measurements must be level, not heaped as this
small difference could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.
Adding sequence
The sequence of adding ingredients should be abided, generally speaking, the sequence is: liquid
ingredient, eggs, salt and milk powder etc. When adding the ingredient, the flour can't be wetted
by liquid completely. The yeast can only be placed on the dry flour. And yeast can't press with salt.
After the flour has been kneaded for some time and a beep will prompt you to put fruit ingredients
into the mixture. If the fruit ingredients are added too early, the flavor will be diminished after long
time mixing. When you use the delay function for a long time, never add the perishable ingredients
such as eggs, fruit ingredient.
TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE
No. Problem
1
Smoke from ven-
tilation hole when
baking
2
Bread bottom crust
is too thick
3
It is very difficult to
take bread out
Course
Some ingredients adhere to the heat
element or nearby, for the first use, oil
remained on the surface of heat element
Keep bread warm and leave bread in the
bread pan for a long time so that water is
losing too much
Kneader adheres tightly to the shaft in
bread pan
Solution
Unplug the home bakery and clean the heat
element, but be careful not to burn you,
during the first use, dry operating and open
the lid.
Take bread out soon without keeping it warm
After taking bread out, put hot water into
bread pan and immerge kneader for 10 min-
