Symptom
The bread rises too much.
The bread does not rise high and remains
white.
Some flour is left inside the bread.
Note:
Making bread is a very delicate task. Even if you follow the same procedure to bake, the rising and shape of the bread varies depending on
the room temperature, ingredients, preservatives, and the use of the timer. Temperature differences between the morning, noon, and night or
using an air conditioner greatly affects the bread.
Also, the kind of ingredients, their freshness, the amount of protein in the flour and the preservatives affect the height and rising of the bread.
· Use the bread maker at a room temperature of no more than 30°C.
· When the room temperature is 25°C or higher, use cool water and decrease the amount of water by 10ml. (It is better to cool the flour in
the refrigerator.)
· Place the yeast under the flour to prevent contact with the water.
· Measure the correct amount with a measuring cup and a scale. Add the yeast, flour, water, and other ingredients in this order.
· Use new ingredients (yeast, flour, sugar, etc.) and put the remaining yeast into a sealed package to be stored in a refrigerator.
* Be sure to set dry ingredients in the dispenser. (Sticky materials make the dispenser assembly dirty and can cause a malfunction of the
open/close operation.)
