Slicing and Storing Bread

For best results place bread on a wire rack and allow to cool for 15-30 minutes before slicing.
Use an electric knife or a sharp knife with a serrated blade for even slices.
Store unused bread tightly covered in a plastic bag at room temperature for up to three days. If
weather is hot and humid, store in the refrigerator overnight.
For longer storage (up to one month), place bread in a tightly covered container in the freezer.
If you store the bread in the refrigerator, leave it out to bring it to room temperature before serving.
Since homemade bread has no preservatives it tends to dry out and become stale faster than
commercially made bread.

Care and Cleaning

1 Caution:To prevent electrical shock, unplug the unit before cleaning.
2 Wait until the breadmaker has cooled.
• IMPORTANT: Do not immerse or splash either the body or lid in any liquid as this may cause damage
and/or electric shock.
3 Exterior: Wipe the lid and outer body of the unit with a damp cloth or slightly dampened sponge.
4 Interior: Use a damp cloth or sponge to wipe the interior of the breadmaker.
5 Baking pan: Clean the baking pan with warm water, soap is not necessary. Avoid scratching the non-
stick surface. Dry it thoroughly before placing it back in the baking chamber.
6 Fruit and nut dispenser: The dispenser is removed by lifting the right side first. Once the right side
has been lifted, the whole dispenser may be removed. The dispenser should be cleaned using warm
soapy water and a damp cloth/sponge. It should then be rinsed thoroughly and left to dry naturally.
To replace the dispenser, ensure the left side is slotted in to place first. The right side can then be
pushed down, back in to position.
• Do not wash the baking pan, measuring cup, spoon or kneading blades in the dishwasher.
• Do not soak the baking pan for long periods as this could interfere with the working of the drive
shaft.
• If the paddle becomes stuck in the bread pan, pour hot water over it and allow to soak for 30
minutes. This will enable you to remove the paddle more easily.
• Be sure the appliance is completely cooled before storing away.
Do not use Steel wool pads when cleaning.
Special care for the non-stick finish. Avoid damaging the coating. Do not use metal utensils such
as spatulas, knives or forks. The coating may change colour after long use, this is only caused by
moisture and steam and will not affect the performance of the unit or quality of your bread.
Ensure that the whole kneading blade which the shaft fits in to is cleaned thoroughly after use. After
cleaning, add a drop of cooking oil to the hole before returning the blade to the shaft. This will help
prevent the blade from sticking.
• Keep all air vents and openings clear of dust.

Storing the Unit

Be sure to dry all parts before storing including wiping any moisture from the viewing window. Close
the lid and do not store anything on top of the lid.

Getting Successful Results

1 Place all recipe ingredients into the baking pan so that yeast is not touching any liquid.
2 If you are using the machine on the Dough setting (programme 6), after the cycle is complete,
remove the dough from the breadmaker, cover in a thin coating of sunflower oil and cover with
greaseproof paper and a dry tea towel. The dough should then be left in a warm area free from
draughts, for approximately 30 minutes or until it has roughly doubled in size.
3 Humidity can cause problems, therefore humidity and high altitudes require adjustments. For high
humidity, add an extra tablespoon of flour if consistency is not right. For high altitudes, decrease
yeast amount by approximately ¼ teaspoon, and decrease sugar and/or water or milk slightly.
4 The DOUGH setting is great for the mixing, kneading and proofing (allowing dough to rise) of richer
doughs like croissant dough. Use the breadmaker to prepare this dough so all you need to do is
shape and bake it according to your recipe.
5 When recipes call for a 'lightly floured surface,' use about 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour on the surface.
You may want to lightly flour your fingers or rolling pin for easy dough manipulation.
6 When you let dough 'rest' and 'rise' according to a recipe, place it in a warm, draught-free area. If
the dough does not double in size, it may not produce a tender product.
7 If the dough you are rolling shrinks back, let it rest covered for a few minutes before rolling again.
8 Dough may be wrapped in plastic and stored in a freezer for later use. Bring the dough to room
temperature before using.
9 After 5 minutes of kneading, open the lid and check the dough consistency. The dough should form a
soft, smooth ball. If too dry, add liquid. If too wet, add flour (½ to 1 tablespoon at a time).
Measuring ingredients
The key and most important step when using your breadmaker is measuring your ingredients
precisely and accurately. It is extremely important to measure each liquid and dry ingredient properly
or it could result in a poor or unacceptable baking result. Do not use normal kitchen teaspoons or
tablespoons. The ingredients must also be added into the baking pan in the order in which they are
given in each recipe. Liquid and dry ingredients should be measured as follows:
Measuring cup
The cup is marked in various 'volume measurement' scales. The recipes in this book use the 'cup'
volume which is based on the 'American' cup of 8 floz and is conveniently marked in ¹/16 divisions.
• If you prefer to use weight (gms) as a measurement, fill and weigh the required number of cups and
record this conversion.
ie: 2 cups = xx gms
3 cups = xxx gms
You must use a good quality set of accurate scales, we prefer to use the 'cup' measure for
consistency and accuracy.
Liquid measurements
Use the cups provided B. When reading amounts, the measuring cup must be placed on a
horizontal flat surface and viewed at eye level (not on an angle). The liquid level line must be aligned
to the mark of measurement.
A 'guesstimate' is not good enough as it could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.
Dry measurements
Dry measurements (especially flours) must be done using the measuring cups provided. The
measuring cups are based on the American standard 8 fluid oz cup - British cup is 10 fluid oz. Dry
measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once filled,
levelling off with a knife C. Scooping or tapping a measuring cup will pack the ingredients and you
will end up with more than is required. This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. Do
not sift the flour, unless stated.
When measuring small amounts of dry or liquid ingredients (ie yeast, sugar, salt, powdered milk,
honey, molasses) the small measuring spoon which is provided must be used. Measurements
must be level, not heaped as this small difference could throw out the critical balance of the recipe
D.
Your breadmaker produces delicious baked goods with ease. This machine requires only that you
carefully follow the recipe instructions. In basic cooking, normally 'a pinch of this and a dash of that' is
fine, but not for breadmakers. Using an automatic breadmaker requires you accurately measure each
ingredient for best results.
• Always add ingredients in the order they are listed in the recipe.
• Accurate measuring of ingredients is vital. Do not use larger amounts.

Bread Mixes

Use the Bread mix' setting. (programme 8)
Follow the information for bread mixes on the bread mix packet. There are two types of bread mixes
currently available.
1 Just add water.
These mixes are complete and they have all the necessary ingredients provided, even the yeast.You
only add water.
• IMPORTANT: Follow the packet instructions as some mixes contain more than the normal amount
of yeast, which could over rise in the pan. Use 3 cups of mix maximum.
• These mixes are more prone to over-rising and collapsing when the weather is hot and humid.
Since these mixes are complete, we cannot advise how to adjust, as with our own recipes. Bake in
the coolest part of the day, use water between 21-28°C.
2 Just add flour and water
These mixes have the necessary ingredients in separate sachets.
