Things y ou should know about your breadmaker

• Your bread maker makes four sizes of loaf, 1lb, 1

2 and 2

lbs.

• There are 11 settings, including one for jam.

• A ‘Keep Warm’ function prevents the bread from getting soggy by keeping finished bread warm up to an hour after the baking is completed. This function stops when the unit is turned OFF / STOP or unplugged.

• An ‘added-ingredient’ function signals with an audible tone when it is time to add ingredients such as fruits or nuts to recipes used with the Basic Breads (2-3) and Sweet (8) settings. The signal tone comes on 32 minutes into the cycle (after initial kneading) so that your fruit or nuts will remain whole rather than be chopped up by the kneading blade. If you use the TIMER to delay baking, you may add all ingredients at once and bypass this function; however, your fruit or nuts

may get somewhat ‘chopped’.

• Do not cover the bread maker with towels or other material that may prevent steam from escaping. Some steaming from vents is normal.

• Do not place any objects on top of the bread maker.

• Unplug the unit and wait until it cools, then remove any food substances from inside the inner case of the Breadmaker by wiping with a damp sponge or cloth. See ‘Care and Cleaning’, page 12 for full cleaning details.

• IMPORTANT: Always add ingredients in the order they are specified in the recipe. For best results,

accurate measuring of ingredients is very important.

Do not put larger quantities than recommended into the baking pan as it may produce poor results and may damage the bread maker.

Electrical requirements

Check that the voltage on the rating plate of your appliance corresponds with your house electricity supply which must be A.C. (Alternating Current).

If the socket outlets in your home are not suitable for the plug supplied with this appliance, the plug should be removed and the appropriate one fitted.

Note: The plug removed from the mains lead, if severed, must be destroyed as a plug with bared flexible cord is hazardous if engaged into a live socket outlet.

Before first use

Enjoy using your Morphy Richards Breadmaker.

Before first use, please take a few minutes to read this instruction book and to find a place to keep it handy for reference.

Pay particular attention to the safety instructions we have provided for your protection.

Carefully unpack the Breadmaker and remove all packaging materials. To remove any dust that may have accumulated during packing, wipe the baking pan, kneading blade and outside surface of the Breadmaker with a clean, damp cloth. Do not use scouring pads or any abrasives on any part of the Breadmaker.

Sett i ng descr iptions

NOTE: The number in parentheses following each

setting description represents the total baking time.

Basic white

These settings are used for breads which primarily use white flour. These settings have the minimum number of rising cycles and the shortest overall times until baking is completed. Therefore, loaves will be slightly denser than French or Sweet breads.

Setting 1 – Small and Medium (3 hours)

Setting 1 is for smaller loaves and takes less time than Setting 2 and 3. Use this setting if you are adding ingredients such as cheese or nuts as they tend to brown easily.

Setting 2 – Large (3 hours 15 minutes)

Setting 3 - Extra Large (3 hours 25 minutes)

Setting 3 has a longer baking time and will produce a loaf with a darker crust.

Setting 4 - Basic Rapid (2 hours 40 minutes)

The rapid setting can be used for any size of loaf. It has a shorter cycle time than the standard settings.

Whole wheat/wholemeal

These settings are used for recipes with significant amounts of whole wheat or wholemeal flour. They begin with a delay period of 30 minutes during which the flours or grains soak in the liquid ingredients.

Soaking causes the flour or grain to soften and helps ingredients to combine well. These settings also have longer initial rise cycles to allow heavy wheat/ grains to expand. Breads made with wholewheat/ wholemeal flour are lower in volume and have a dense texture, compared to breads made with white flour.

Setting 5 - Small and Medium (4 hours 45 minutes)

Setting 6 - Large and Extra Large (4 hours 50 minutes)

Speciality

Setting 7 – French (3 hours 40 minutes)

Traditionally French bread has a crispier crust and

lighter inside texture than basic breads.

Setting 8 - Sweet (3 hours 50 minutes)

Use this setting for recipes that use fruit juice, additional sugar, or added sweet ingredients such as coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit, or chocolate.

Setting 9 – Dough (1 hours 40 minutes)

This setting makes dough only and will not bake the final bread. Dough can be shaped to make pizza, rolls and doughnuts. Follow dough recipes for specific directions.

Setting 10 – Cake/Quick Bread (1 hour 50 minutes)

Setting 11 – Jam (1 hour)

The 8 bread settings in this unit will combine ingredients, knead and make bread from start to finish automatically. The DOUGH setting makes dough which can then be used for a variety of recipes. To delay completion, the automatic TIMER may be programmed to make bread or dough while you are at work or asleep. (See ‘Using The Timer For Delayed Completion’ page 11).

For all settings - 1 to 11

Open the lid and remove the baking pan by pulling

straight up on the handle. It is important to remove

the baking pan from the unit rather than putting

ingredients into the Pan while it is in place to avoid

accidentally spilling ingredients into the inner case.

Warning

Place your Breadmaker on a surface which is level, stable and secure.

Attach the kneading blade onto the shaft inside the

baking pan by lining up the flat side of the blade

with the flat side on the shaft. Push the blade

firmly onto the shaft.

• Be sure to set the kneading blade firmly into place

otherwise the blade may come off during

operation, which may affect the kneading or

mixing.

• Be sure the shaft is clean of any residue (i.e.

dough). This will ensure the kneading blade will

fully seat into place.

3 Measure ingredients carefully and

accurately.

• To measure liquids, use the cup provided and check

the measurement at eye level.

• When measuring dry ingredients, use the cup

provided (ensure it is dried after measuring the

liquid) and level the ingredients with a straight

edge knife.

• Inaccurate measurement, even if only slightly out,

can make a difference in results. Use the measuring

spoon and level off with a straight edge knife. (See

‘Measuring Your Ingredients’ page 14).

• Always add ingredients into the baking pan in the

order they are listed.

• Yeast is always added last. Be sure that the yeast

does not touch the liquid ingredients.

•

Be careful not to mix the yeast with any

of the wet ingredients especially when

using the delayed timer feature, otherwise

the bread may not rise properly.

Yeast

Place the baking pan back into the unit. Push down on the Pan until you hear it click firmly into place. Fold the handle down.

Special Note

If the baking pan is not installed in the proper orientation or firmly clicked into place the kneading blade will fail to operate.

Close the lid and connect the plug to an electrical

socket (240 volt). You will hear a beep sound and

the display window will be blank.

Select the appropriate setting for your recipe (1 to

11) by pressing the SELECT button on the pad. Each

time SELECT is pressed, the number in the display

window will advance to the next setting.

Press START. The baking time in hours and minutes

will appear in the display. For example, if you chose

a recipe using setting 1, the display will show 3:00.

It will count down the remaining bake time in one-

minute decrements (2:44, 2:43, etc) until the bread

is done. When the baking time is completed, a

signal tone will sound three times and the display

window will flash ‘END’.

Warning

Do not place the baking pan or any other object on the top of the unit. To avoid damaging the bread makers surface, do not put any object or the hot baking pan on top of the unit.

This Bread maker is designed with a ‘Keep Warm’

function that automatically begins when the BAKE

time is completed. At the end of the BAKE cycle

‘END’ will appear (in the display window) up to 60

minutes after baking is complete and will keep the

bread warm during that time. You may remove the

baking pan at any time during the ‘Keep Warm’

cycle. To turn off the ‘Keep Warm’ feature before the 60 minutes are up, simply press the STOP button and hold it for 3 seconds until you hear a ‘beep’. END will disappear and the display window will now be blank.

•

UNPLUG THE UNIT WHEN FINISHED. Never leave the unit plugged in when not in use.

The ‘Keep Warm’ feature is not provided for the DOUGH setting. If you keep finished dough in the Breadmaker over a period of time, it may over-rise and produce poor results. For best results, remove dough at the end of the cycle and follow the recipe directions for shaping, resting and baking.

This Breadmaker has a convenient Viewing Window so that you may watch the progress of the bread as it is mixed, kneaded, and baked. Occasionally some moisture may be formed in the window during processing. If moisture forms, you may lift the lid to look inside during the mixing and kneading stages, however

do not open the lid during the

baking cycle

(approximately the last hour or so)

as this may cause the bread to collapse.

To remove the bread from the baking pan, use an oven glove or oven mitts and pull straight up on the baking pan handle. Turn the pan upside down and shake the bread out onto a wire cooling rack. The baking pan has a non-stick coated finish so that the bread should come out easily. Do not use metal utensils to remove bread as they may scratch the non-stick coating. If you have difficulty removing bread from the baking pan, slide a flat rubber or plastic spatula along the sides of the pan to loosen the loaf. Turn the pan over and shake the loaf out. Allow the bread to cool before slicing (See ‘Slicing and Storing Bread’ page 11).

• If the kneading blade remains in the bottom of the baking pan, it may be necessary to fill the baking pan with warm water in order to loosen the kneading blade from the shaft. If the kneading blade remains in the bottom of the loaf of bread, use the end of a plastic spoon or other non-metal utensil to remove. Always check to see where the

kneading blade is when removing a baked loaf of bread. If it remains stuck in the bread you may accidentally damage it by cutting into it while slicing.

Using the timer for delayed completion

Use the TIMER when you would like to delay the completion of your bread. This feature allows you to delay the bake time for up to 12 hours. For example, you can set the TIMER in the evening and wake to fresh bread the following morning.

NOTE: Be sure you have followed the ‘How to Use Your Breadmaker’ steps 1-6 in preparing the ingredients in the baking pan. It is not recommended that you use the ‘Delayed Completion’ function and TIMER with recipes that call for fresh ingredients which might be spoiled such as eggs, fresh milk, sour cream, or cheese.

Determine the time required from when you set

the Breadmaker until the time you want the bread

to be ready.

Press the ▲arrow on the control panel and the

cycle time for the Setting you have previously

selected will be displayed. Continue to Press ▲until

the display reads the total time you require.

• The timer moves in 10 minute increments.

• You do not need to calculate the difference

between the Setting time and the total hours you

want. The Breadmaker will automatically adjust to

include the Setting time.

• If you pass the desired time, simply press ▼to go

back.

• Example: If it is 8 pm when you place all the

ingredients in the baking pan and you would like

the bread at 8 am, you will need a total of 12

hours. Select Setting 1 for a Small loaf. Press ▲and

3:00 will display. Continue to press ▲until the

display reads 12:00.

Once you have set the time, press START. The colon

(:) in the display will flash to indicate that the

TIMER has been set and the countdown will begin.

The TIMER will count down in one-minute

decrements. When the display reaches END, your

bread is complete and the beeper will sound.

If you make a mistake while setting the TIMER,

press and hold the STOP button until it beeps. This

will clear the display and you can set the TIMER

again.

Slicing a nd storing bread

For best results place bread on a wire rack and allow to cool for 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. You may use an electric knife for even slices. Otherwise, use a sharp knife with a serrated blade.

Store unused bread tightly covered at room temperature for up to three days. If weather is hot and humid, store in the refrigerator overnight. For longer storage (up to one month), place bread in a tightly covered container in the freezer. If you store the bread in the refrigerator, leave it out to bring it to room temperature before serving. Since homemade bread has no preservatives it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially made bread.

Care and clean i ng

Caution

To prevent electrical shock, unplug the unit before cleaning. Wait until the Breadmaker has cooled prior to cleaning. Do not immerse or splash either the body or lid in any liquid as this may cause damage and/or electric shock.

For best performance and maintenance, it is recommended to clean the Breadmaker after each use as follows:

Outer body, lid and inner case

Wipe the lid and outer body of the unit with a damp cloth or slightly dampened sponge. Use a damp sponge or cloth to wipe out any flour, crumbs, or other materials from the inner case.

Baking pan and knead i ng blade

Both the baking pan and kneading blade have a non-stick coated surface. Do not use any harsh cleansers, abrasive materials or utensils which may scratch their surfaces. Over time, the non-stick surface may change in appearance due to moisture and steam. This is

normal and has no effect on its use or quality.

Remove the baking pan and kneading blade from the inner case before cleaning. To remove the blade from the baking pan, hold the drive underneath the base of the pan and turn the blade clockwise. If required, rotate the blade

back and forth a few times and remove in a clockwise direction.

If you still have difficulty removing the blade, fill the baking pan with hot, but not boiling, water and allow to soak for 30 minutes. This should loosen the blade enough for it to be removed.

Wipe the outside of the baking pan with a damp cloth. You may hand wash the inside of the baking pan with soapy water. The drive shaft on the inside base of the pan should also be cleaned. Alternatively, the baking pan can be washed in a dishwasher.

The hole in the centre of the kneading blade should be cleaned with a plastic or wooden tooth pick and a drop of cooking oil put in the hole to prevent sticking.

Do not use any of these when cleaning your breadmaker:

• Paint Thinner

• Benzine

• Steel Wool

Pads

• Polishing

Powder

• Chemical

Dustcloth

Storing the unit

Be sure to dry all parts before storing including wiping any moisture from the Viewing Window. Close the Lid and do not store anything on top of the Lid.

Troubleshooting

Knowing your ingredients

Introduction

Waking to the smell of homemade bread baking in the kitchen is one of the most comforting memories of childhood. Can you remember rushing downstairs to taste the bread, hot out of the oven, with butter melting on top? What a great way to start the morning! The Morphy Richards Breadmaker can create that same experience every morning.

There's very little effort on the part of the baker, because this Breadmaker is a sophisticated appliance with a computer memory that does all the work for you. Just follow the recipe instructions, and wake up to fresh baked bread in your Breadmaker. But don't stop at baking bread in this appliance. Besides being able to do all kinds of speciality breads, including wholemeal, you can also prepare doughs for croissants, bagels, doughnuts, pizzas and more. Everything is easy and tastes homemade, because it is.

Understandi ng baki ng

It is often said that cooking is an art relying on the creativity of the chef while baking bread is much more of a science. The process of combining flour, water and yeast results in a chemical reaction that produces bread. Read the following information carefully to gain a better understanding of the importance each ingredient plays in the breadmaking process.

Important special note on flours

Flours, while visibly similar, can be very different by virtue of how they were grown, milled, stored, etc. You may find that you will have to experiment with different brands of flour to help you make that perfect loaf. A Baking Tips Guide has been provided on pages 26-27 of this book to assist you with these experiments. Storage is also very important, as all flours should be kept in a secure, airtight container.

All purpose flour / plain flour

All-Purpose Flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours especially suitable for making cake breads. This type of flour should be used for recipes in the cake/quick bread section.

Strong plain flour / bread flour

Bread Flour is a high gluten/protein flour that has been treated with conditioners that give the dough a greater tolerance during kneading. Bread Flour typically has a higher gluten concentration than All Purpose Flour; however, depending on different milling practices this may vary. Strong plain flour or bread flour is recommended for use with this Breadmaker.

Whole wheat flour/wholemeal flour

Whole Wheat Flour/Wholemeal Flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel which contains the bran and

germ and makes it heavier and richer in nutrients than All Purpose Flour. Breads made with this flour are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves due to the sharp edges of the bran and the germ cutting the gluten strands. To overcome this Whole Wheat Flour/Wholemeal Flour is usually mixed with Bread Flour or Strong Plain Flour to produce a high light textured bread.

Self-raising flour

Self Raising Flour contains unnecessary leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and cake making. It is not recommended for use.

Bran

Bran (unprocessed) & Wheat Germ are the coarse outer portions of the wheat or rye grains separated from flour by sifting or bolting. They are often added in small quantities to bread for nutritional enrichment, heartiness and flavour. They are also used to enhance the texture of bread.

Oatmeal

Oatmeal comes from rolled or steel-cut oats. They are used primarily to enhance flavour and texture.

Yeasts (active dry yeast)

Yeast through a fermentation process produces gas (carbon dioxide) necessary to make the bread rise. Yeast must be able to feed on sugar and flour carbohydrates in order to produce this gas. Active dry granular yeast is used in all recipes that call for yeast. There are basically three different types of yeast available, fresh, dry and instant quick rising. It is recommended that traditional dry yeast be used, however, instant quick rising can also be used in lesser amounts. (Note: The recipes in this cookbook were developed using traditional dry yeast). Fresh or compressed cake yeast is not recommended as they will produce poor results. Store yeast according to manufacturers instructions. Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its expiration date. Once a package or can of yeast is opened it is important that the remaining contents be immediately resealed and refrigerated as soon as possible for future use. Often bread or dough, which fails to rise, is due to stale yeast being used. The following test can be used to determine whether your yeast is stale and inactive:

Place half cup of lukewarm water into a small bowl

or cup.

Stir 1 tsp of sugar into the water then sprinkle 2

tsp. of yeast over the surface.

Place bowl or cup in a warm area and allow to sit

for 10 minutes undisturbed.

The mixture should foam and produce a strong

yeast aroma. If this does not occur, discard mixture

and start again with another packet of dried yeast.

Sugar

Sugar is important for the colour and flavour of breads. It is also food for the yeast as it supports the fermentation process. Artificial sweeteners cannot be used as a substitute for sugar as the yeast will not react properly with them

Salt

Salt is necessary to balance the flavour of breads and cakes, as well as for the crust colour that develops during baking. Salt also limits the growth of yeast so the amounts shown in the recipes should not be increased. For dietary reasons it may even be eliminated entirely, however, your bread may overprove and rise higher than normal.

Liquids / milk

Liquids such as milk or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavour, provide a velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Some recipes call for juice (orange, apple, etc) to be added as a flavour enhancer. Note: For most recipes we suggest the use of Dry Skimmed Milk.

Eggs

Eggs add richness and a velvety texture to bread doughs and cakes.

Butter & margarine

Butter and Margarine ‘shortens’ or tenderises the texture of yeast breads. Breads that call for butter stay fresh longer. If butter or margarine is used direct from the refrigerator, it should be cut into small pieces for easier blending during the kneading cycle. Oil can be used as a substitute for butter or margarine.

Baking powder

Baking powder is a raising agent used in quick breads and cakes. This type of raising agent does not require rising time before baking as the chemical reaction occurs when liquid ingredients are added.

Bicarbonate of Soda

Bicarbonate of Soda is another raising agent not to be confused or substituted for baking powder. It also does not require rising time before baking as the chemical reaction occurs during baking process.

Measuring your ingredients

The key and most important step when using your Breadmaker is measuring your ingredients precisely and accurately. It is extremely important to measure each liquid and dry ingredient properly or it could result in a poor or unacceptable baking result. The ingredients must also be added into the baking pan in the order in which they are given in each recipe. Liquid and dry measurements are done somewhat differently and are as follows:

Liquid Measurements

Use the cup provided. When reading quantities, the measuring cup must be placed on a horizontal flat surface and viewed at eye level (not on an angle). The liquid level line must be aligned to the mark of

measurement. A ‘guesstimate’ is not good enough as it could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.

Dry Measurements

Dry measurements (especially flours) must be done using the measuring cup provided. Dry measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once filled, levelling off with a knife. Scooping or tapping the measuring cup will pack the ingredients and you will end up with more than is required. This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. Do not sieve the flour, unless stated.

When measuring small amounts of dry or liquid ingredients (ie Yeast, Sugar, Salt, Powdered Milk, Honey) the measuring spoon provided must be used. Measurements must be level, not heaped as this small difference could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.

Ingredient temperatures

All ingredients, especially liquids (water or milk), should be warmed to room temperature 21°C (70°F). If ingredients are too cold, below 10°C (50°F), they will not activate the yeast. Extremely hot liquids, above 40°C (104°F), may kill the yeast.

Creating your own yeast breads

With the Morphy Richards Breadmaker, 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 machine, the dough is mixed, kneaded, proved and baked without you being present. The Breadmaker can also just prepare the dough, and when it's ready, you shape and bake in a conventional oven. The recipes on the following pages are ‘tailored’ for this Breadmaker. Each recipe features ingredients that best compliment a particular loaf of bread. It is extremely important not to exceed the amounts of flour specified in each of the recipes or else it could result in unsatisfactory baking performance. When creating your own yeast bread recipes or baking an old favourite, use the recipes in this cookbook as a guide for converting portions from your recipe to your Breadmaker.

Dough - Setting 9

• Place all recipe ingredients into the baking pan so

that yeast is not touching any liquid.

• After completing the process of making dough in

your Breadmaker, remove it from the machine.

Please refer to individual recipes for further details

on rising and baking, as recipes may vary.

• The DOUGH setting is great for mixing, kneading

and proving (allowing dough to rise) richer dough

like croissant doughs. Use the Breadmaker to

prepare this dough so all you need to do is shape

and bake it according to your recipe.

• When recipes call for a ‘lightly floured surface,’ use

about 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour on the surface.

You may want to lightly flour your fingers or

rolling pin for easy dough manipulation.

• When you let dough ‘rest’ and ‘rise’ according to a

recipe, place it in a warm, draught-free area. If the

dough doesn't double in size, it may not produce a

satisfactory product. Dough is ready when an

indentation remains when it is touched.

• If the dough you are rolling shrinks back, let it rest

covered for a few minutes before rolling again.

• Dough may be wrapped in plastic and stored in a

freezer for later use. Bring the dough to room

temperature before using.

Making more than one loaf

If wishing to bake more than one loaf, ensure the Breadmaker cools sufficiently prior to starting the next cycle. Also ensure that the baking pan and kneading blade are clean and dry before starting the next loaf.

Special glazes for yeast breads

Give your just baked bread a professional finish. Select one of the following special glazes to enhance your bread.

Egg Glaze

Beat 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon of water together, brush generously (Note: apply only to doughs before baking).

Melted Butter Crust

Brush melted butter over just baked bread for a softer, 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 to make a consistent glaze, drizzle over Raisin Bread or Sweet Breads.

Poppy/Sesame/Caraway Seed/Oatmeal

Sprinkle your choice of these seeds generously over just glazed bread.

As part of the baking cycle for the whole wheat bread. There is a delay period of 30 minutes for programme 5 & 6, in which the flour or grains are allowed to soak in the liquid and expand. During this delay period there is no activity by the unit. However you will see the timer counting down.

Soaking causes the flour/grains to soften and helps the ingredients combine well.

Ja m Mak i ng

Jam is made by boiling the fruit, sugar and lemon juice until it forms a ‘gel’ which sets on cooling. In order for this ‘gel’ to form, all jam recipes require the following:

a) Pectin –this is found in the cell walls of fruit and the

amount present depends on the type of fruit and

the age of the fruit. b) Sugar c) Lemon Juice

It is important that these substances are present in

the right proportions.

If you wish to experiment and make your own jam recipes, use the guidelines for the ingredients to use. DO NOT USE MORE THAN 3 CUPS OF FRUIT. You may find that you will have to experiment with different quantities of lemon juice and use different types of sugar, when making your own recipes. This is due to different fruits having different pectin contents, therefore they require different concentrations of lemon juice and sugar in order to form a ‘gel’. Use good quality fruit which is just ripe (or slightly under ripe) when it has its highest pectin content. NEVER USE FRUIT WHICH IS OF POOR QUALITY OR OVER-RIPE.

Safety notes when making jam

Do not open the lid during the jam cycle.

Once finished leave the jam for about 10 mins before opening lid. Then open lid very slowly.

Using oven gloves slowly pour the jam into prepared jar(s).

Allow to cool thoroughly and once cool place the jam in the fridge.

Questions about general performance and operation

Question 1

How do I make doughnuts with my

Breadmaker?

How does it make the hole?

The Breadmaker only makes the dough for the doughnuts. You must form and fry the doughnuts in a conventional deep fryer.

Question 2

What should I do if the kneading blade comes out with the bread?

Remove it with a pair of plastic tongs before slicing the bread. Since the blade can be disconnected from the pan, it is not a malfunction if it comes out in your bread.

Question 3

Why does my bread sometimes have some flour on the side crust?

In some cases, the flour mix may remain on the corners of the baking pan. When this happens, it usually can be eaten or simply trim off that portion of the outer crust with a sharp knife.

Question 4

Why isn't the dough mixing? I can hear the motor running.

The Kneading Blade or baking pan may not be inserted properly. Make sure the pan is facing the right way and that it has ‘clicked’ and seated into the bottom of the Breadmaker.

Question 5

How long does it take to make bread?

Timings for each setting are outlined on page 8 and page 22.

Question 6

Why can't I use the timer when baking with fresh milk?

The milk will spoil if left sitting in the machine too long. Fresh ingredients such as eggs and milk should never be used with the delayed timer feature.

Question 7

If the power goes off in the middle of processing, will my Breadmaker finish baking bread or making dough?

No. The unfinished bread or dough should be discarded and the process started from the beginning.

Question 8

Why do I have to add the ingredients in a

certain order?

This allows the Breadmaker to mix the ingredients in the most efficient manner possible. It also serves to keep the yeast from combining with the liquid before the dough is mixed.

Question 9

When setting the timer for morning, why does the machine make sounds late at night?

The machine must start operation several hours before the bread will be ready. These sounds are made by the motor when kneading the dough. It is a normal operation, not a malfunction.

Question 10

What size loaf does the Breadmaker make?

Your Bread maker makes Small 1 lb, Medium 1

lb,

Large 2 lb and Extra Large 2

lb loaves of bread.

Question 11

The kneading blade is stuck in the bread pan. After baking how do I get it out?

The kneading blade may "stick" in place after baking. Running warm or hot water over the blade should loosen it enough to be removed. If still stuck, soak in lukewarm water for about 30 minutes.

Question 12

How many watts is my Breadmaker?

670 watts during the baking cycle. Very little power is consumed during the kneading and rising cycles.

Question 13

Can I wash the baking pan in the dishwasher?

Yes. The baking pan and kneading blade can be washed by hand or in a dishwasher.

Question 14

What will happen if I leave the finished bread in the baking pan?

It may result in a ‘soggy’ loaf of bread as excess steam (moisture) would not be able to escape. Allow to cool on a wire rack after baking to prevent this.

Question 15

Why did the dough only partially mix? Why didn't it mix completely?

The batter may be too heavy or dry. Also, the kneading blade or baking pan may not be inserted properly. Ingredients may have been added in the wrong order. (See Baking Tips Guide on page 26-27).

Question 16

Why didn't the bread rise?

The yeast could be bad, past it’s sell by date or possibly no yeast was added at all. Also, if the mixing was not complete, rising problems could develop. Gluten free flour will also affect the amount of rising. There are numerous reasons for this problem and are outlined in the Baking Tips Guide on page 26-27).

Question 17

Why can't the delayed finish be set for more than 12 hour? What is the minimum time a cycle may be delayed?

The maximum length of delay is 12 hours including the particular cycle time. For example, setting 3 has a cycle that takes 3:25 hours, so it may be delayed up to 8

hours. The delay cannot exceed 12 hours since the yeast and ingredients may not work well. The minimum length of delay for each setting is 10 minutes, as the delay clock increases in 10 minute increments.

Questions about i ngredients and recipes

Question 18

How do I know when to add raisins, nuts,

etc. to the bread?

On setting 2, 3 and 8, there is a beeper tone to signal that you may add raisins, nuts, etc. after the initial kneading cycle is complete. (NOTE: The beeper sounds after 32 minutes).

However, in most cases, the added ingredients are broken apart during the initial kneading cycle. So, if it is more convenient for you to add them at the start, results will be fine.

Question 19

How come my bread comes out too moist? What can I do?

Humidity may affect the dough. Add an extra tablespoon of flour. Also, high altitude may have the same effect. Decrease the amount of yeast by 1/4 teaspoon and decrease the sugar and/or water/milk slightly. (See Baking Tips Guide on page 26-27).

Question 20

Why do I get air bubbles at the top of the bread?

This can be caused by using too much yeast.

Question 21

When using raisins, the Breadmaker

crushes them. How can I avoid this?

Ingredients such as raisins, nuts, etc., should be added when the signal time comes on approximately 32 minutes into the cycle (after initial kneading) to prevent this from occurring.

Question 22

Why does my bread rise and then collapse or crater?

The bread may be rising too fast. To reduce the rate of rising, reduce the amount of water and / or increase the amount of salt and / or decrease the amount of yeast. (See Baking Tips Guide on page 26-

27).

Question 23

Can I use my favourite bread recipes (traditional yeast bread) in my bread machine?

Yes, but you will need to experiment to get the right proportion of ingredients. Become familiar with the unit and make several loaves of bread before you begin experimenting. Never exceed a total amount of 5

cups dry ingredients (that includes flours, oats, oatmeal, bran). Use the recipes in this book to help determine the ratio of dry ingredients to liquid and amounts of yeast, sugar, salt, and butter/margarine to use.

Question 24

Is it important for ingredients to be at room temperature before adding them to the Baking Pan?

No, as long as ingredients are not extremely cold or hot. Milk, eggs, butter/margarine, and yeast can be added directly from the refrigerator with good results (see page 14).

Question 25

Why do the loaves vary in height and weight? The whole wheat/wholemeal breads are always shorter. Am I doing something wrong?

No, it is normal for Whole Wheat and Wholemeal breads to be shorter and denser than Basic or French breads. Whole Wheat and Wholemeal are heavier than white bread flour, therefore they don't rise as much during the bread making process. They also typically have added ingredients, such as oats, bran, nuts and raisins, which contribute to the shorter height and denser texture.

Baking tips guide introduction

When this instruction book was developed, hundreds of loaves of bread were baked using popular brands of flours and yeasts available. Adjustments were made to the recipes based on ingredients from popular brands. For example, if you use flour processed by a local mill it may have different characteristics and produce different results than some of the more popular national brands. If you followed the recipe in the cookbook exactly and feel the results should be

better than what you are currently achieving, use the BAKING TIPS GUIDE on following pages 26-27 to help you produce a loaf of bread to suit your personal tastes. There are usually several possible solutions to improve each result. You can make adjustments

one at a time, or you can try a combination of them all at once.

We suggest you keep track of your "baking experiments" so you can determine what adjustments were made to create your perfect loaf.
