• If you are out of the room or have not pressed START/STOP button at the end
of operation, the bread will be kept warm automatically for 1 hour, when keep
warm is finished, one beep will be heard.
• Don't leave the bread in the machine with the lid closed after the keep warm
step or the condensation will return to the bread and make it soggy!
• Now this part cannot be stressed enough. Once the loaf has cooled:
USE THE SUPPLIED HOOK TO CAREFULLY REMOVE THE
KNEADING PADDLE FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE LOAF.
Replacement paddles are expensive and we love to sell them. But we are quite sure
Note: It is advised to store any uneaten bread in a sealed plastic bag or vessel.
Bread can be stored for about three days at room temperature (in a nice Swan
bread bin). In the refrigerator (yep, Swan sells those too!), storage time could be
as much as ten days.
HINTS, TIPS AND SHOPPING LIST
• STRONG WHITE BREAD FLOUR has high gluten content. It has good elastic
properties and is better at holding the bubbles made by the yeast during the ris-
ing process. This leads to a larger loaf with a lighter texture. When shopping for
bread flour, always look for STRONG flour specifically for bread making.
• STRONG WHOLE-WHEAT FLOUR is ground from grain. It contains wheat skin
and gluten. Whole-wheat flour is heavier with more fibre than white flour. The
bread made with 100% whole-wheat flour usually has a texture like flat packed
furniture, so many recipes usually combine whole-wheat flour with white flour to
achieve the best results.
• DRIED MILK POWDER. Gives the bread a nice malty taste and reduces the
need for more oil, butter or fat. It's also good for bread made with the delay
timer as it will not spoil while sitting in the bread pan.
• YEAST. Use active dry yeast for bread making. All supermarkets sell it. It is
best bought in the individual sachets (not tubs). Each sachet typically contains 7
grammes.. This is more than you need for this machine. Once opened discard
any unused yeast. It won't even keep until the next day!
• WATER. Hard water gives unpredictable results. Bottled water that has been
stored at room temperature water is best
• SALT. Basic table salt will work just fine but keep it away from the yeast while it
is sitting in the bread maker. Salt is important for the taste of the loaf but it will
