HOW TO MEASURE:

important when making bread. See measuring section for more information.
REMEMBER TO: Always measure liquid ingredients in see-through measuring cup with
graduated markings. Liquid should just reach marking on cup at "eye-level," not above or below.
For easier measuring, set cup on inside of top kitchen cabinet.
Always use liquid at the correct temperature. One-Hour Bread Express™ requires hotter liquids
than the other bread settings. Use thermometer included with machine or other thermometer to
measure liquid temperature. See backside of thermometer included with machine for proper use.
Always spoon dry ingredients, like bread flour, into solid, nesting type-measuring cups, then
level off with table knife.
Never scoop measuring cups into dry ingredients as this will pack down the ingredients,
causing the dough to be dry and the loaf to be short.
Always use set of measuring spoons to measure smaller quantities of dry and liquid
ingredients, measuring level, not rounded or heaping.
