1. Fo low the Directions: The liquid is always the first ingredient. Dry ingredients fellow
and the yeast is added last. Make a small well in the center 01 the f our and place t le
yeast there. This is especially important when using the delay-bake funcbon to avoid
activating the yeast too soon.
2, Measure carefully: Use the appropriate measuring tools and measure carefully, The
measuring cup incIuded can be used for liquids, measured at eye level. Spoon dry
ingredients into a standard measuring cup and level off with the straight edge of a knife
or metal spatula. Use measuring spoons for liquid and dry ingredients. Level off dry
ingredients.
3, Keep Ingredients Fresh: Use fresh ingredients at room temperature. Use Bread Flour
in the USA and use All-Purpose Flour or Bread Flour in Canada. Use yeast that has
an expiration date of at toast 6 months in the future. Avoid using perishable ingredients
(such as milk, eggs and cheese) when using the delay-bake function.
4. The Perfect Dough: In very humid weather, bread may require a little more flour. Check
bread toward the end of the first rise. ]f it seems sticky, add 1 or 2 tabIespoons of flour
to _he second kneading cycle until lhe dough forms a smooth ball, If the bread seems
very dr,/or knocks in the kneading cycle, sprinkle room ternperature water into the pan,
1 teas,_oon at a time, until dough forms a smooth ball,
5. Look But Don't Open: The glass in the cover is there to monitor the process. Do not
open the lid during the baking process. In the initial mixing you may open the cover to
use a rubber spatula to blend in any ingredients that have sluck to lhe sides of the
bread pan or to add ingredients at the 5 "add ingredient" beeps repeated 3 times,
6. Nave Patience: Wait at least 30 minutes before slicing freshly baked bread; it will sti!l
be deliciously warm bul easier to slice. If you like a crisp crust, rernove the bread as
soon as the baking cycle is complete. To make another loaf of bread let the unit cool
completely.
7, Adding ingredients: All functions except Rapid Bake allow for the addition of ingredients,
such as dried fruits and nuts. Three series of 5 beeps sound just before kneading is
complete. This happens about 30 minutes into the program. This is when to add your
additional ingredients,
8, To save it for another time: To freeze freshly baked bread, cool completely on a wire
rack. Wrap securely in plastic wrap and then in foil, To serve, remove from foil and
defrost in microwave. For a freshly baked flavor, reheat in the oven.
9, Avoid Delay when Possible: The delay-bake function of the Bread Maker cannot be
used for Fast Bake. It is not recommended for Whole Grain, Quick Bread, making Jam
and anything else with perishable ingredients.
10, Test the Water Temperature: For most breads, use water that is 80" to 9O_F
(26.6 ° to 32.2_C), For Rapid Bake breads, use water that is 1 t 0 ° to 120"F
(43.3 ° to 48.8_C).
