 The breadmaker 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.
