Before You Begin Making

Bread Dough

Features of the Kneader for Bread

The blade was made for bread dough

This product makes good gluten efﬁciently with the “kneading blade (patent acquired)” attached to the pot and then thoroughly kneads the gluten at an optimal speed without having to detach it.

Temperature control is even easier

(1) It is possible to display the pot temperature (≒ dough

temperature).

*Temperature errors may arise depending on the location where this product is used.

(2) It is possible to adjust the dough temperature with a

special refrigerant. ( This cannot be heated up in a microwave, so please warm up in hot water and then use.) Please wrap the refrigerant around the pot when you want to adjust the dough tempe rature by cooling in a refrigerator beforehand.

Refrigerant

How to Attach the Refrigerant

Please ﬁrmly hold in place with

the hook and loop fastener

It is possible to make creative recipes simply

(1) Basic recipes: 01 (timer set ting only), 02 (straight method) and 03 (Oochi method) (2) Creative recipes: It is possible to record three recipes in C1 to C3 (3) Free recipes: It is possible to record three recipes in F1 to F3 (4) Japan kneader recipes: It is possible to select from the at tached recipe s (5) LP (low-speed mode): This is suitable for noodles etc. (dough with low water content)

Tips to Be Successful in Making Bread Dough

(1) Bread dough is sensitive to the temperatur e

The room temperature and water temperature has an impact on the fermentation and affects the ﬁnish to the bread.

[Guide to the ideal water temperature] Summer: 15-20°C / Winter: 30-35°C

(2) Restore ingredients to room temperature

In particular, if you use milk and eggs while they are still cold, the dough temperature will lower and this will have an impact later on the fermentation and maturation.

(3) Accurately weight ingredients

If you make a mistake with the weighing, this will have an effect on the ﬁnish – the dough will be too hard or too soft.

(4) Do not dr y the bread dough

Avoid drying the kneaded bread dough by matur ing it with the pot cover on.
