6. The cord to this appliance should only be plugged into a 120V AC electrical wall outlet.

7. Do not use this appliance in an unstable position.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Do not use an extension cord with this product.

ELECTRIC POWER

If electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your Bread Maker may not operate properly. The Bread Maker should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other operating appliances.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

POWER OUTAGE

60-Minute Power Failure Back-Up

Your Breadman® Ultimate Plus Automatic Bread Maker has a 60Minute Power Failure Back-Up feature. If the electricity goes off, the memory will store the Cycle in process for up to 60 minutes. If the power comes back on within this time, the Cycle will resume where it left off. If the Breadman® Ultimate Plus loses power for more than 60 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 non-perishable recipes you may try starting the Breadman® Ultimate Plus 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 ball from the Bread Pan and place in an oven-safe baking container. Allow to double in size and place in a preheated 350ºF/177ºC oven for 30 to 45 minutes or until done. The bread will sound hollow when tapped on top of the loaf if it is done. Again, this may not always produce an acceptable loaf of bread.

If the bread has already begun to bake when the outage occurs, you must begin with new ingredients.

NOTE: Power Failure Back-Up does not cover surges. If you

experience frequent surges, please use a surge protector.

BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME

1. Unpack and clean your Breadman® Ultimate Plus Automatic Bread Maker; see CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS. When the Breadman® Ultimate Plus is packaged for shipment, a clear plastic film is placed over the Control Panel; carefully peel it off.

2. Place the Breadman® Ultimate Plus on a dry, stable surface away from heat and away from areas where cooking grease or water may splatter onto it. Avoid placing the Bread Maker where it may tip over during use. Place away from edge of the counter top.

3. The Breadman® Ultimate Plus will bake up to a 2 pound loaf of bread. Do not put a larger quantity of ingredients into the Bread Pan than recommended. If you do so, the bread may not mix or bake correctly and the Breadman® Ultimate Plus may be damaged. The maximum amount of ingredients to be used is as follows.

• Bread Cycles 4 to 4-2/3 cups

• Batter Breads™ and prepackaged cake mixes 4 cups

• Dough Cycles 4-2/3 cups

• Jam 3 cups fruit

4. Before first use, operate the Breadman® Ultimate Plus empty on the Rapid White Cycle program to burn off the manufacturing oils. Follow the instructions outlined in the MAKING DOUGH AND BAKING BREAD section of this Instruction Manual.

NOTE: During first use, this product may smoke and/or emit an odor

from mineral oils used in manufacturing. This is normal for a newly manufactured appliance.

BREADMAN®ULTIMATE PLUS TIPS

1. Remember to insert the Kneading Paddle first, then add all your ingredients BEFORE inserting the Bread Pan into the Baking Chamber of your Breadman® Ultimate Plus.

Inserting and Removing the Bread Pan

PLEASE NOTE:

2. To insert the Bread Pan in the Breadman®, seat it firmly in place.

3. To remove the Bread Pan from the Baking Chamber, hold the Handle with an oven mitt and lift gently. When you remove the Bread Pan after baking, BE SURE TO WEAR OVEN MITTS to prevent burning. After you remove the loaf (by turning the Bread Pan upside down and shaking gently), check to see that the Kneading Paddle is removed from the loaf. If it is stuck in your bread, use a non-metal utensil to gently remove it, taking care not to scratch the Kneading Paddle.

If, at any time during the bread making process, you need to turn the Breadman® OFF, press the PAUSE Button. Then press STOP/RESET.

KNEADING AND BAKING CYCLES

WHITE BREAD

This Cycle is used for breads that primarily use white flour, although some recipes may include small amounts of whole wheat flour.

WHOLE WHEAT BREAD

This Cycle is used for recipes with significant amounts of whole wheat or rye flour, oats, or bran. It begins with a rest period during which the flours or grains absorb the liquid ingredients. Soaking causes the flour or grain to soften and helps ingredients to combine well. Generally, Whole Wheat and multi-grain breads are shorter and denser than White, French, or Fruit & Nut.

FRENCH BREAD

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

FRUIT & NUT BREAD

Use this Cycle for recipes that use fruit juice, additional sugar or added sweet ingredients such as coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate. Baking temperature is reduced to prevent burning.

LOW CARB BREAD

Use this Cycle for low carb bread recipes containing special flours designed for low carb diets. Try both the low carb bread recipes and low carb batter bread recipes included in this book and then experiment with your own additions and/or substitutions.

GLUTEN FREE BREAD

Use this Cycle to bake fresh and wonderful breads for people with special dietary needs. Try the gluten free recipes included in this book and then experiment with your own additions and/or substitutions.

BATTER BREADS

This Cycle is used for recipes that contain baking powder or baking soda rather than yeast to make bread or cake rise. Cake recipes made from scratch must be specially designed for this Cycle. Use this Cycle to prepare pre-packaged cake and quick bread mixes.

KNEADING AND BAKING CYCLES (CONTINUED)

JAM

Use this setting for making jams from fresh fruits. Do not double recipes or allow ingredients to boil over the Baking Pan into the Baking Chamber. Should this happen, stop the Bread Maker immediately. Allow to cool and clean thoroughly.

RAPID BREAD

The Rapid settings for White, Whole Wheat, French, and Fruit & Nut decrease the time for making your favorite bread by approximately an hour. Choose a recipe, then simply add the amount of yeast listed for the Rapid Cycle. The bread may be shorter and denser.

BAKE ONLY

This Cycle can be used if the crust is too light or if you wish to bake pre-made dough. It can be especially helpful if your bread, Batter Bread or cake is not quite done. Check every few minutes. This Cycle will bake for up to 1:30 (1 hour 30 minutes or 90 minutes) and from 300ºF to 375ºF.

PERSONAL RECIPE

The Breadman® Ultimate Plus Bread Maker has 5 personal recipe Memory Cycles. This means you have 5 personal memories to program and save for your best, favorite recipes. PERSONAL BAKER lets you factor the brand and type of flour, quality of yeast, and even your climate, into the Cycle times. This information is then stored in the PERSONAL BAKER file, and kept separate from the Regular Cycles for White, Whole Wheat, French, and Fruit & Nut breads.

CUSTOM PROGRAM

The Custom Program feature allows you to alter existing settings in the preset programs; manually change the length of the Cycles..

MOTE: If bread is not removed immediately after baking, a controlled Keep Warm phase

will begin for each selection (except Batter Breads,™ Doughs, Jam and Pasta Dough). While this will help reduce condensation between loaf and Bread Pan, it is best to remove bread as soon as possible after completion of the Baking phase.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS

It has been said that cooking is an art that relies on the creativity of the chef. Baking bread is much more of a science, since the process of combining flour, water and yeast results in a chemical reaction that produces bread. You must remember that when the ingredients combine with each other, they produce a specific result. Read the following information carefully to gain a better understanding of the importance each ingredient plays in the bread making process.

All-Purpose Flour

All-purpose flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours ideally suited for making quick breads and cakes. The most popular brands of flour have been tested for quick bread and cakes in the Breadman® Ultimate Plus with excellent results.

Bran

Bran (unprocessed) is the coarse outer portion of the 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

Bread flour is a high gluten/protein flour that typically has a higher gluten concentration than all-purpose flour. Using bread flour with the Breadman® Ultimate Plus will produce loaves with better volume and structure.

Cornmeal and Oatmeal

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

Cracked Wheat

Cracked wheat has a 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

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

Self-Rising Flour

Self-rising flour contains leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and cake making.

Ultimate Plus Bread Maker.

Self-Rising Flour is NOT RECOMMENDED for use with your Breadman®

7 Grain Cereal Blend

7 grain cereal blend is a blend of cracked wheat, oats, bran, rye, cornmeal, flax seeds and hulled millet.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS (CONTINUED)

Vital Wheat Gluten

Gluten is manufactured from wheat flour that has been treated to remove nearly all of the starch, which leaves a very high protein content. (Gluten is the protein in the wheat that makes the dough elastic.) Gluten is available at most health food stores and in the baking aisle in many markets. It is sometimes used in small portions with dense, lowgluten flours (such as whole wheat) to increase volume and lighten texture.

Whole Wheat Flour

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 a high, light-textured bread.

Flour Storage

Keep flour in a secure, airtight container. Keep rye and whole wheat flours stored 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 by virtue of how they were

ground, milled, stored, etc. You may have to experiment with different brands of flour to help you make the perfect loaf. See RECIPE TIPS Section of this

Instruction Manual 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 or rapid rise or bread machine yeasts are quick-acting.

RECOMMENDED for use with your

Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its 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.

The following test can be used to determine if your yeast is stale and inactive.

1. Place 1/2 cup of hot (110ºF-115ºF/43ºC-46ºC) water into a liquid measuring cup.

2. Stir 1 teaspoon of sugar into the water and then sprinkle 2 teaspoons of yeast over the surface.

3. Allow mixture to sit for 10 minutes undisturbed.

4. The mixture should foam and rise to the 1 cup mark. If this does not occur, discard this yeast and purchase fresh yeast.

Breadman® Ultimate Plus Bread Maker.

Fresh (cake) yeast is NOT

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS (CONTINUED)

NOTE: The basic bread and dough recipes in this booklet were developed using

active dry yeast. You may use the chart below to substitute any quick-acting yeast

(quick rise, fast rise or Bread Maker yeast) for the active dry yeast or vice versa.

Conversion Chart for Quick Rise Yeast

3/4 tsp active dry yeast = 1/2 tsp quick rise yeast

1 tsp active dry yeast = 3/4 tsp quick rise yeast 1-1/2 tsp active dry yeast = 1 tsp quick rise yeast 2-1/4 tsp active dry yeast = 1-1/2 tsp quick rise yeast

1 TBL active dry yeast = 2 tsp quick rise yeast

Sugar

Sugar is important for the color and flavor of breads. It also serves as food for the yeast since it supports the fermentation process. Recipes in this book that call for sugar require granulated sugar. Do not substitute powdered sugar. In addition, artificial sweeteners cannot be used as a substitute for sugar as the yeast will not react properly with them. Honey may be substituted for sugar in equal proportions; reduce the liquid by the same amount.

Salt

Salt is necessary to balance the flavor of breads and cakes. Salt limits the growth of yeast. Do not increase or decrease the amount of salt shown in the recipes. Dietetically sodium-free (less than 5 mg sodium per serving) or low salt (less than 1/2 the sodium of table salt) may be used in equal amounts. The bread will be more coarse.

Liquids

All liquids should be warm 80ºF/27ºC for all recipes. Liquids, such as milk (1%, 2%, whole and skim), water or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavor, provide a 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.

Eggs

Eggs add richness and a velvety texture to bread dough and cakes. When the recipe calls for egg(s) at room temperature, large egg(s) should be used. Liquid egg substitutes may be used as directed on the carton or 2 egg whites may be substituted for 1 whole egg. They must also be room temperature.

KNOW YOUR INGREDIENTS (CONTINUED)

Fats

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

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 the chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added and again during the 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 the chemical reaction works during the baking process.

MEASURING YOUR INGREDIENTS

The most important step when using your Breadman® Ultimate Plus for making bread is measuring your ingredients. It is very important to measure each liquid and dry ingredient accurately. For best results, add ingredients into the Bread Pan in the order given in each recipe.

Liquid Measurements

Use transparent plastic or glass liquid measuring cups to measure all liquid ingredients. Place the cup on a horizontal flat surface and view markings at eye level. The level of the liquid must be aligned to the appropriate mark of measurement. A “guesstimate” is not good enough, as it could throw off the critical balance of the recipe.

Dry Measurements

Dry ingredients must be measured using standard size dry measuring cups. These cups are available in various sizes. Gently spoon dry ingredients into the measuring cup and level off with a knife. Do not scoop or tap measuring cup, as this will pack the ingredients. This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. Do not sift flour in bread making.

When measuring small amounts of dry or liquid ingredients (i.e. yeast, sugar, salt, dry milk, honey or molasses), a standard measuring spoon must be used. Measurements must be level, not heaping.

The Breadman® Ultimate Plus Bread Maker produces delicious baked goods with ease. This marvelous appliance asks only that you carefully follow the recipe instructions. In most cooking, a pinch of this and a dash of that is fine, but this is not the case for automatic Bread Makers. Using this Breadman® Ultimate Plus requires that you accurately measure each ingredient.

RECIPE TIPS

Creating Your Own Yeast Breads

Even the most inexperienced baker can achieve the satisfying experience of baking a loaf of bread. All of the mystery and hard work is gone. Inside this talented Breadman® Ultimate Plus is a computer brain which instructs the Bread Maker to mix the dough, knead the dough, allow it to proof (rise) and bake without you being present. The Breadman® Ultimate Plus will also prepare dough for you to shape and bake in a conventional oven. The recipes included in this book were developed for this Bread Maker. Each recipe features ingredients that best compliment a particular loaf of bread and each was tested in our Breadman®. It is extremely important not to exceed the amount of flour specified in each recipe, up to approximately 4 to 4-2/3 cups for Bread Baking Cycles and 4-2/3 cups for Dough Cycles, or an unsatisfactory baking performance could result. When using your own yeast bread recipes to bake an old favorite, use recipes in this cookbook as a guide for converting portions from your recipe to your Breadman® Ultimate Plus.

Special Glazes for Yeast Breads

Give your just-baked bread a professional finish. After glazing, generously sprinkle with your choice of poppy, sesame or caraway seeds, if desired. Select 1 of the following special glazes to enhance your bread.

• Egg Glaze: Beat 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon of water together, brush generously over dough.

NOTE: Apply to breads just before baking.

• 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 icing sugar with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk until smooth to make a consistent glaze. Drizzle the glaze over raisin bread or sweet breads when they are almost cool.

Bread Mixes and Other Recipe Books

You can use prepackaged bread mixes or other Bread Maker recipes in your Breadman® Ultimate Plus. Follow package or recipe directions for making 1, 1.5 or 2 LB loaves. Do not exceed the Bread Pan capacity.

Checking Dough Consistency

Although the Breadman® Ultimate Plus will mix, knead, and bake bread automatically, when baking bread from scratch, it is necessary that you learn to recognize the condition of your dough.The ratio of flour to liquid is the most critical factor in any bread recipe, yet incorrect measurements are most easily remedied. After 5 to 10 minutes in the 2nd Knead process, open the Breadman® Ultimate Plus to check the consistency of the dough. The dough should be in a soft, tacky ball (feel sticky like scotch tape). If it is too dry, add liquid 1/2 to 1 teaspoon at a time. If it is too wet, add 1/2 to 1 tablespoon of flour at a time.

The Batter Breads™ batter will look like normal cake batter.

RECIPE TIPS (CONTINUED)

High-Altitude 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. For more information on High Altitude Baking guides contact:

Colorado Cooperative Extension Resource Center To ll free: (877) 692-9358 E-mail: CERC@vines.colostate.edu Website: www

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

In humid climates, flour is wetter and will absorb less liquid. Therefore less

liquid is required.

Slicing and Storing Bread

For best results, place the bread on a wire rack and allow to cool for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. Use an electric knife or a serrated knife for even slices. For rectangular slices, place the loaf on its side and slice across.

Store unused bread tightly covered, (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 a tightly covered container in the freezer. Since homemade bread has no preservatives, it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially-made bread.

Leftover or slightly hardened bread may be cut into 1/2-inch or 1-inch cubes and used in recipes to make croutons, bread pudding or stuffing.

MAKING DOUGH, BAKING BREAD AND BATTER BREADS™

The following are the general steps for using the Breadman® Ultimate Plus. Depending on the Cycles or recipe that you choose, some steps may not apply or there may be additional steps.

Add all ingredients to the Bread Pan in the order listed in the recipe. The illustrations in this instruction manual are for information purposes only. You may find your

Breadman® Ultimate Plus looks different, however, the steps for operation are the same. Always use the freshest ingredients available. By carefully following the simple recipes that come

with the Breadman® Ultimate Plus, you will be able to bake delicious bread every time.

STEP 1

Open the Lid and remove the Bread Pan.

Lift the Bread Pan straight up and out of the machine, using the Handle. Do not turn or shake the Bread Pan while taking it out. If the Bread Pan is bent, the temperature sensor may not work properly.

STEP 2

Position the Kneading Paddle on the Drive Shaft.

Match the flat side of the Drive Shaft to the flat part of the hole in the Kneading Paddle. Make sure the Paddle is secure.

STEP 3

Place the ingredients into the Bread Pan.

For best results, add all liquid ingredients first. Then, add all dry ingredients EXCEPT yeast, baking powder or baking soda.

ALWAYS ADD YEAST, BAKING POWDER OR BAKING SODA LAST.

YEAST/BAKING POWDER OR BAKING SODA

DRY INGREDIENTS

WATER OR LIQUIDS

STEP 4

Make a small indentation on top of the dry ingredients (not so deep it reaches the wet layer) and add the yeast/baking powder/ baking soda to the indentation.

This order of adding ingredients is important, especially when using the Delay Bake Timer for yeast bread baking, because it keeps the yeast away from the wet ingredients until the Kneading process begins. (Liquid ingredients will prematurely activate the yeast.)

STEP 5

STEP 8

Insert the Bread Pan into the Baking Chamber. Press down on the rim until it

snaps securely into place.

If the Bread Pan does not snap securely into place, remove Bread Pan. Wearing oven mitts, place fingers behind Bread Pan clips and gently pull away from oven wall. Insert Bread Pan again.

STEP 6

Close the Lid. Plug into 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet. The Breadman® will beep and the display indicator will light up with flashing zeros.

STEP 7

Press the SELECT Button to choose the Cycle you want.

Each time the SELECT Button is pressed, it will beep and the Indicator will move to the next Cycle in the Display Window.

Press the CRUST CONTROL Button to choose the Crust Color you want. The

Breadman® Ultimate Plus is preset for Medium Crust Color.

NOTE: CRUST CONTROL cannot be

activated for the following Cycles:

• Jam

• Dough

• Pizza Dough

• Bake Only

NOTE: Although the Breadman® Ultimate

Plus is capable of making 1 LB, 1.5 LB and 2 LB loaves, we recommend baking

1.5 and 2 LB recipes for more uniform loaves of bread. The smaller size recipes and mixes will not fill the Bread Pan when finished. This is especially true for breads that contain whole grains or other special ingredients such as Sunflower & Sesame Seed Whole Wheat Bread and Anadama Oatmeal Bread. Some 1 LB recipes have been omitted.

STEP 10

STEP 11

EXTRAS controls the Fruits & Nuts Dispenser.

Add ingredients, such as dried fruit or nuts, herbs, oats, etc. to the Fruits & Nuts Dispenser after placing ingredients in the Bread Pan.

For the White, Whole Wheat, French, Fruit & Nut, Batter Breads™ and Dough Cycles, add any fruits or nuts, herbs, garlic, etc. into the Dispenser NOW!

WARNING: Do not exceed 2/3 cup

capacity.

NOTE: Do not pour liquids or spices

into the Dispenser. Always make sure fresh fruit or vegetables are not wet. Pat dry before putting them in the Dispenser.

Press the START Button to begin the Kneading Cycle.

The Operation/Keep Warm Light will illuminate. The TIME remaining will begin to count down in the Display Window. CYCLE, LOAF SIZE, CRUST COLOR, and PROCESS will be shown in the Display Window.

The Breadman® Ultimate Plus will begin mixing the ingredients. Then, it will begin the kneading process.

•After 5 to 10 minutes into 2nd Kneading process, check the dough ball, or stir ingredients if needed.

• During the rest process of the Batter Breads™ Cycle, use a rubber spatula to fold in any flour from around the edges of the Bread Pan.

During this process, the yeast will activate and normally the Viewing Window may begin to fog. (This will clear eventually so you can view the loaf’s progress).

Opening the Lid will not stop the kneading process. Quickly close Lid to prevent heat loss. At this time, also check dough ball and use a rubber spatula to scrape any ingredients from the sides of the Bread Pan.
