 The Bread Maker has a keep warm
facility to reduce condensation of steam
within the loaf which operates if the
stop pad is not pressed on completion
of the program.
 However, this will accelerate the
browning of the crust, therefore, upon
completion of baking, switch off the
unit, remove the bread immediately
from the unit to cool it.
 If you leave the bread to cool down in
the bread pan, moisture will be retained
within the loaf which will affect the
finished quality of the loaf. Therefore,
cool on a wire rack to ensure optimum
quality of the loaf. 13
