Checking Dough Consistency; Using Your Bread Maker - Breadman TR875 Instruction Manual

BREAD PAN TIPS
Inserting bread pan
Note: Remember to insert kneading paddles first, then add all ingredients in the order
listed BEFORE inserting the bread pan into baking chamber.
• When inserting bread pan into bread maker, make sure to set firmly in place.
Removing bread pan
• To remove bread pan from baking chamber, hold handle with an oven mitt and lift
straight up firmly.
Important: When you remove bread pan after baking, be sure to wear oven mitts to
prevent burning.
• After removing loaf (by turning bread pan upside down and shaking gently), check to
see that kneading paddle is removed from loaf. If it is stuck in bread, allow bread to
cool; then use a non-metal utensil to remove it, taking care not to scratch the kneading
paddle. Allow bread to cool before removing the kneading paddle.

CHECKING DOUGH CONSISTENCY

Although your bread maker will mix, knead and bake bread automatically,
when baking bread from scratch, it is recommended that you learn to
recognize condition of your dough. The ratio of flour to liquid is the most
critical factor in any bread recipe, yet the most easily remedied. After 5 to
8 minutes in Knead 2, open bread maker to check consistency of dough.
Dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky like scotch tape). If it is
too dry, add 1 tsp. of liquid at a time. If it is too wet, add 1 tbsp. of flour at a
time.

USING YOUR BREAD MAKER

Note: Depending on the cycle or recipe used, some steps may not
apply or there may be additional steps. Refer to the respective recipes
instructions in the recipes portion of this booklet, as well as the specific
cycle instructions located at the end of these usage instructions.
1. Open lid and remove bread pan. Lift bread pan straight up and out
using the handle (B).
Caution: Do not turn or shake bread pan while taking it out. If the bread
pan is bent, temperature sensor may not work properly.
2. Position kneading paddle on the drive shaft. Match flat side of drive
shaft to flat part of hole in kneading paddle (C). Make sure paddle is
secure.
3. Place ingredients into the bread pan.
Important: Add ingredients to bread pan in the order listed in the
recipe.
Important: Always add yeast last.
4. Make small indentation on top of dry ingredients (not so deep it
reaches the wet layer) and add yeast (D).
Important: Indentation for yeast is important, especially when using the
delay bake timer. It keeps yeast away from the wet ingredients until the
kneading process begins. (Liquid ingredients will prematurely activate
the yeast.)
5. Insert the bread pan into the baking chamber (E). Press down on
rim of bread pan until it snaps securely into place.
6. Close the Lid. Plug into 120V AC outlet. The Breadman® will beep and the Display
Window will illuminate.
