Cleaning And Maintenance; Introduction Of Bread Ingredients - HOMCOM BM4406-GS Assembly Instruction Manual

Cleaning and Maintenance

Disconnect the machine from the power and let it cool down completely prior to cleaning.
1) Bread pan: Wipe the inside and outside with a damp cloth. Do not use any sharp or
abrasive agents to avoid damaging the non-stick coating. The pan must be dried
completely prior to installing.
2) Kneading blade: If the kneading bar is difficult to remove from the axle, in such an
event fill the Container with warm water and allow it to soak for approximately 30
minutes. The kneader can then be easily removed for cleaning. Also wipe the blade
carefully with a damp cotton cloth.
3) Lid and window: clean the lid inside and outside with a slightly damp cloth.
4) Housing: gently wipe the outer surface of housing with a wet cloth. Do not use any
abrasive cleaner to clean as this would degrade the high polish of the surface. Never
immerse the housing into water for cleaning.
5) Before the bread maker is packed away for storage, ensure that it has completely
cooled down, is clean and dry, and put the spoon and the kneading blade in the
drawer, and close the lid.

Introduction of bread ingredients

1) Bread flour - Bread flour has a high gluten content (it is also called high-gluten flour
which contains high protein), it has good elasticity and can keep the size of the bread
from collapsing after rise. As the gluten content is higher than the common flour, so
it can be used for making bread with large size and better inner fibre. Bread flour is
the most important ingredient of making bread.
2) Plain flour - Flour that contains no baking powder, it is suitable for making quick
bread.
3) Wholewheat flour - Wholewheat flour is ground from grain. It contains wheat skin
and gluten. Whole-wheat flour is heavier and more nutrient than common flour. The
bread made by whole-wheat flour is generally small in size. Many recipes usually
combine the wholewheat flour or bread flour to achieve the best result.
4) Black wheat flour - Black wheat flour, also called "rough flour", it is a kind of high
fibre flour, and it is similar with wholewheat flour. To obtain the large size after rising,
it must be used in combination with high proportion of bread flour.
5) Self-rising flour - A type of flour that contains baking powder, it is used for making
cakes specially and is not recommended for bread making.
