POWER OUTAGE
10-Minute Power Failure Back-Up

Your Professional Bread Maker has a 10-minute power failure
back-up feature. If the electricity goes out, the memory will
store your cycle selection for up to 10 minutes. If the power
comes back on within this time, bread making will resume
where it left off.

If the bread maker loses power for more than 10 minutes and
you are using any dairy products, perishables or meat in your
bread, you should discard the contents of the recipe and start
again with new fresh ingredients due to health and sanitary
considerations. For nonperishable recipes you may try starting
the bread maker at the beginning of the cycle again. However,
this may not always produce an acceptable loaf of bread.

If you are not sure when the outage occurred, remove the dough
and discard.

KNEADING AND BAKING CYCLES

Note: If at any time during bread making process you need to turn

bread maker off, press and hold the START/STOP button for several
seconds, then unplug the unit.

Note: If bread is not removed immediately after baking and START/
STOP button is not pressed, a controlled 60-minute Keep Warm mode

will begin (except during Quick Bread, Dough and Jam). For best
results, remove bread immediately after baking process is complete.

WHITE

Used for breads that primarily include white bread flour, although
some recipes may include small amounts of whole wheat flour.

WHOLE WHEAT

Used for recipes with significant amounts of whole wheat or rye flour,
oats or bran. Whole wheat cycle begins with rest period during which
flours or grains absorb liquid ingredients. Soaking causes flour or
grain to soften and helps ingredients to combine. Generally, whole
wheat and multi-grain breads are shorter and denser than white,
French or sweet.

FRENCH

Traditionally, French bread has a slightly crispier crust and lighter
texture than white bread. Recipes usually do not include butter,
margarine or milk.

SWEET

Used for recipes that contain eggs, fruit juice, additional sugar or
added sweet ingredients such as coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit or
chocolate. Baking temperature is reduced to prevent burning.

QUICK BREAD

Used for recipes that contain baking powder or baking soda, rather
than yeast, to make bread rise. Cake recipes made from scratch must
be specially designed for this cycle.

LOW CARB

Used for recipes that are lower in carbohydrates.

GLUTEN-FREE

Used for gluten-free recipes.

DOUGH

Use to prepare dough for making bread, rolls or pizza which are
shaped and allowed to rise before baking in a conventional oven. This
setting blends and kneads the dough and takes it through the first rise.

ARTISAN DOUGH

Artisan breads (or country breads) represent the best in bread
baking. They use the freshest ingredients, usually including fresh
herbs and interesting seed and nut additions. The longer rising
time (the entire cycle in the bread machine is 5:15 hours) at cooler
temperature settings (preset in the machine) allow the flavor of the
flour to dominate. Consider using ingredients such as, organic flours,
unrefined sea salt and spring water. Sugar and fat are often not used
in these breads. The final shaping, rising and baking of the bread allow
for your creativity and bring a very personal touch to the results.

JAM

Use to prepare preserves, marmalade, chutneys and ketchup. Add
fruit, sugar and lemon juice for homemade preserves – a great
topping for homemade bread, waffles and ice cream.

BAKE ONLY

Used if crust is too light or you wish to bake pre-made dough – also
especially useful if your bread is not quite done. Check every few
minutes. Bakes for up to 1 hour, 30 minutes.

RAPID

Used for White, Whole Wheat and French cycles to decrease time to
approximately 1 hour. Choose recipe, then simply add ½ tsp. to amount
of yeast listed for a 2-lb. loaf. Bread may be

shorter and denser than

bread made using the longer program.

WHOLE WHEAT FLOUR

All-purpose flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours ideally suited for making quick
breads and cakes.

Bran (unprocessed) is coarse outer portion of wheat or rye grains that is separated from flour
by sifting or bolting. It is often added to bread in small quantities for nutritional enrichment,
heartiness and flavor. It is also used to enhance bread texture.

Bread flour typically has higher gluten concentration than all-purpose flour. Using bread flour
will produce loaves with better volume and structure.

Cornmeal and oatmeal come from coarsely ground white or yellow corn and from rolled or
steel-cut oats. They are used primarily to enhance flavor and texture of bread.

Cracked wheat has very coarse texture. It comes from wheat kernels cut into angular
fragments. It gives whole grain breads a nutty flavor and crunchy texture.

Rye flour must always be mixed with high proportion of bread flour, as it does not contain
enough gluten to develop structure for high, even-grained loaf.

Self-Rising Flour is NOT RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker. Self-rising flour
contains leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and quick bread making.

7 grain cereal blend is a blend of cracked wheat, oats, bran, rye, cornmeal, flax seeds and
hulled millet. It is used primarily to enhance flavor and texture of bread.

Vital Wheat Gluten is manufactured from wheat flour that has been treated to remove nearly
all of the starch to leave a very high protein content. (Gluten is the protein in wheat that makes
dough elastic.) Vital Wheat Gluten is available at most health food stores. It can be used in small
portions to increase volume and lighten texture.

Whole wheat flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel, which contains the bran and germ.
This high fiber flour is richer in nutrients than all-purpose or bread flour. Breads made with this
flour are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves. Many recipes mix whole wheat flour
with bread flour or vital wheat gluten to produce higher, lighter-textured bread.

T

IPS ON FLOUR STORAGE

Keep flour in a secure, airtight container. Store rye and whole wheat
flours in a refrigerator, freezer or a cool area to prevent them from
becoming rancid. Allow flour to come to room temperature before
using.

Note: Flours, while visibly similar, can be very different in how they are
ground, milled, stored, etc. You may have to experiment with different
brands of flour to help you make the perfect loaf. See RECIPE TIPS to
assist with these experiments.

YEAST

Active yeast, through a fermentation process, produces carbon dioxide
gas necessary to make bread rise. Yeast feeds on carbohydrates in
sugar and flour to produce this gas. Three different types of yeast are
available: fresh (cake), active dry and quick-acting. Quick, rapid rise
and bread machine yeasts are quick-acting. Fresh (cake) yeast is NOT
RECOMMENDED for use with your bread maker.

TIPS ON YEAST

Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its expiration date. Ideally,
yeast should be used several months before the expiration date. Once
a package or jar of yeast is opened, it is important that the remaining
contents be immediately resealed and refrigerated or frozen for future
use. Often dough that fails to rise is due to stale yeast.

Note: Basic bread and dough recipes in this booklet were developed
using bread machine yeasy (active dry yeast). You may use chart to
substitute any quick-acting yeast (quick rise or fast rise) for bread
machine yeast.

CONVERSION CHART FOR BREAD MACHINE YEAST

¾ tsp. bread machine yeast = ½ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1 tsp. bread machine yeast = ¾ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1½ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1 tsp. quick-acting yeast
2¼ tsp. bread machine yeast = 1½ tsp. quick-acting yeast
1 tbsp. bread machine yeast = 2 tsp. quick-acting yeast

RAPID CYCLES

Rapid cycle settings for White, Whole Wheat and French decrease time
for making your favorite bread in approximately 1 hour. Choose recipe,
then add an additional ½ tsp. of bread machine yeast to the recipe.
The bread may be shorter and denser.

ADDITIONAL INGREDIENT NOTES
Important: Exact measurements for ingredients are the most important part of baking. It is the key to getting great texture
and consistency in your bread. Make sure to measure all ingredients exactly.

BAKING POWDER

Double-acting baking powder is a leavening agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of leavening
agent does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients
are added and again during baking process.

BAKING SODA

Baking soda is another leavening agent, not to be confused or substituted for baking powder.
It also does not require rising time before baking, as chemical reaction works during baking process.

EGGS

Eggs add richness and velvety texture to bread dough and cakes. When recipe calls for egg(s),
large egg(s) at room temperature should be used.

FATS

Butter, margarine and oil shorten or tenderize the texture of yeast breads. French bread gets unique
crust and texture from the lack of added fat. However, breads that call for fat stay fresh longer.
If butter is used directly from refrigerator, it should be cut into small pieces for easier blending
during kneading process.

LIQUIDS

All liquids should be warm 80ºF/27ºC to 90°F/32°C for all recipes. Liquids, such as milk, water or a
combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavor,
provide velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Vegetable
or fruit juices and potato water may be used for flavor variety.

SALT

Salt is necessary to balance flavor in breads and cakes; it also limits growth of yeast. Changing the
amount of salt in a given recipe may result in shorter, gummier bread. When first making a type of
bread, do not increase or decrease amount of salt shown in the recipe.

SUGAR

Sugar is important for color and flavor of breads. It also serves as food for yeast since it the supports
fermentation process. Recipes in this book that call for sugar require granulated sugar.

Important: Do not substitute powdered sugar. Artificial sweeteners cannot be used as substitute,
as yeast will not react properly with them.

CLIMATE CHANGES & BAKING

• In high-altitude areas (over 3,000 feet) dough tends to rise faster, as
there is less air pressure. Therefore, less yeast is necessary.

• In dry climates, flour is drier and requires slightly more liquid.

• In humid climates, flour is wetter and will absorb less liquid, so less
liquid is required.

How to Use

This product is for household use only.
Important: Your bread maker has an Intelligent Fuse™ system

designed to protect the motor from overheating. It will automatically
shut off the motor if there is an overheat risk. If this occurs, unplug
the appliance, wait a minimum of 20 minutes for it to cool down, and
plug in again following the instructions.

GETTING STARTED

CHECKING DOUGH CONSISTENCY

Although your bread maker will mix, knead and bake bread
automatically, when baking bread from scratch, it is recommended
that you learn to recognize condition of your dough. The ratio of flour to
liquid is the most critical factor in any bread recipe, yet the most easily
remedied. After 5 to 8 minutes in Knead 2, open bread maker to check
consistency of dough. Dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky
like scotch tape). If it is too dry, add 1 tbsp. of liquid at a time. If it is too
wet, add 1 tbsp. of flour at a time.

USING YOUR BREAD MAKER
Note: Depending on the cycle or recipe used, some steps may not

apply or there may be additional steps. Refer to the respective

20 minutes before slicing. Use electric knife or serrated knife for even
slices.

H

12 13

Store unused bread, tightly sealed (sealable plastic bags or plastic
containers work well) at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer
storage, (up to 1 month) place bread in sealed container in freezer.
Since homemade bread has no preservatives, it tends to dry out and
become stale faster. Leftover or slightly hardened bread may be cut
into ½-inch or 1-inch cubes and used in recipes to make croutons,
bread pudding or stuffing.

USING 15-HOUR DELAY BAKE TIMER
Important: Delay baking does not activate JAM cycle. Do not use

delay bake timer if your recipe includes perishables, such as eggs,
fresh milk, yogurt or other dairy products and meats, etc. To preset
your bread maker, follow these steps:

To preset your bread maker, follow these steps:

1. Add ingredients in the order listed as usual, taking care not to let

start over, press and hold START/STOP for several seconds. Timer
will clear and you can begin again.

BAKE ONLY

The BAKE ONLY cycle offers the flexibility to vary time. You can bake
pre-made dough or dough purchased at the store using this cycle. You
may also use this cycle if crust color is too light or if your sweet bread
is not quite done. Check every few minutes.

1. Press the BAKE ONLY button to activate cycle. Adjust the amount of
time you need up to 1½ hours using the ▲ and ▼ buttons.

2. Press START/STOP button to begin baking.

SPECIAL GLAZES FOR YEAST BREADS

Select 1 of the following special glazes to enhance your bread:

• Melted Butter Crust: Brush melted butter over just-baked bread
for a softer, more tender crust.

• Milk Glaze: For a softer, shiny crust, brush just-baked bread with
milk or cream.

• Sweet Icing Glaze: Mix 1 cup sifted confectioner’s sugar with 1 to 2
tablespoons of milk, water or fruit juice until smooth. Drizzle glaze
over raisin or sweet bread when they are almost cool.

Note: If desired, generously sprinkle with your choice of nuts or seeds
after glazing.

DOUGH CYCLE
Tips for Best Results

• If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of flour, away
from liquids.

Important: Never allow dough to remain in bread maker after cycle is
complete; it may over rise and damage machine.

• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan
will vary due to recipe, temperature and humidity level of your
kitchen. Optimum temperature for rising is 80°– 85°F. Rising is the
most essential feature in bread making.

• Bread maker allows dough to have first rise or fermentationbefore
dough is removed. Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming
pliable and elastic with a soft, smooth quality) develops flavor and
leavens product.

• Sometimes a double rising is beneficial especially for whole grain
or 100% whole wheat bread. Let dough rise once in bread maker.
Remove from bread maker, punch down, let rise again, punch down
and let rest 10 minutes. Resting allows gluten to relax and makes
handling easier. Shape as desired and allow to rise until doubled in
volume. If only 1 rise is desired, remove from bread maker, let rest,
shape and rise as above.

• Baker’s Tip: Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation
remains after tip of a finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough.
If indentation springs back, cover and let rise a few more minutes
and check again.

SPECIAL TIPS FOR MAKING DOUGH
Important: For use only with the Dough Cycle.

• Always allow optimum rising of shaped dough.

• Use pastry brush to apply glaze.

• Bake as directed in recipe.

Apply Just Before Baking:
Egg Yolk Glaze

For shiny golden crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg or egg yolk with
1 tbsp. water or milk.

Egg White Glaze

For shiny, chewy crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg white with
1 tbsp. water.

If desired, sprinkle chopped nuts or fruit and/or seeds after glazing.

Lightly Floured

Sprinkle enough flour onto work area so dough can be handled without
sticking.

Shaped Rolls
Important: Once rolls are shaped, cover and let rise until doubled
before baking.

Cloverleaf Rolls

Shape into ½-inch balls. Place 3 balls in each greased muffin tin.

Crisscross Rolls

Shape into balls, setting 2 aside. Combine balls and roll into a ¹⁄
thick square. Cut strips ¹⁄

8-inch wide and 2-inches long. Brush top

8-inch

of roll with beaten egg. Place 1 strip across top of each ball. Repeat
process, placing second strip in opposite direction across top of
each ball.

Traditional Rolls

Shape into balls. For “pull apart” rolls, place dough balls with sides
touching in 8 or 9 inch round or square greased baking pan. For
“individual” rolls place dough balls 2-inches apart.

Crescent Rolls

On lightly floured board, roll dough to 12-inch circle. Spread with
softened butter. Cut into 16 wedges beginning at wider end.
Place rolls 2-inches apart on greased baking sheet with points
underneath; curve rolls slightly. If desired, brush with melted butter
just before baking.

14 15

Rosettes

On lightly floured board, roll about 1½ oz piece of dough into 14 inch
rope. Tie in a loose knot, leaving 2 long ends. Tuck one end under knot
and second end into the top center of the loose knot. Place 2-inches
apart on lightly greased baking sheet.

ARTISAN DOUGH CYCLE
Tips for Best Results

• Consider using more refined ingredients such as, organic flours,

unrefined sea salt and spring water.

• Make sure you are using the freshest ingredients, including fresh
herbs, seeds or nuts.

• If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of flour, away
from liquids.

Important: Never allow artisan dough to remain in bread maker after
cycle is complete; it may over rise and damage machine.

• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan
will vary due to recipe, temperature and humidity level of your
kitchen. Optimum temperature for rising is 70°– 75°F. Rising is the
most essential feature in bread making.

• Bread maker allows dough to have first rise or fermentationbefore
dough is removed. Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming
pliable and elastic with a soft, smooth quality) develops flavor and
leavens product.

• Resting allows gluten to relax and makes handling easier. Shape as
desired and allow to rise until doubled in volume.

• Baker’s Tip: Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation
remains after tip of a finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough.
If indentation springs back, cover and let rise a few more minutes
and check again.

JAM CYCLE
Method

1. Following steps in USING YOUR BREAD MAKER; select JAM cycle.

2. Once JAM cycle is complete, remove bread pan from bread maker
and pour hot mixture into heat-safe jars, leaving ½” of space at
the top.

3. Allow to partially cool. Cover tightly to store. Mixture will thicken
upon cooling.

Tips for Best Results

• Do not reduce sugar or use sugar substitutes. Exact amounts of

sugar, fruit, and other ingredients are necessary for good set.

• Use only ripe fruit (not overripe or under-ripe) for best flavor.

• Do not puree fruit. Jam should have bits of fruit in it.

• Recipes should not exceed 3 cups fruit.

• Remove stems, seeds or pits from fruit.

• You may use strawberries, blackberries, raspberries or other thin

skinned berries. Fruit such as peaches, pears and apricots may be
used, but should be peeled and have seeds removed.

• Frozen berries or fruit (no sugar added) may be substituted for

fresh. Thaw and drain before measuring. For thinner jam, use juice
as part of 3 cups of berry or fruit amount.

• Lemon juice adds necessary acid to berries or fruit.

• You may decrease amount of sugar, but it will produce a thinner

result. More sugar will make it thicker. For best results, sugar
substitutes are not recommended.

• Average refrigerated life of jam is 2 weeks or up to several months

if frozen.

Important: Do not exceed amounts given in recipes!
