Bread, fresh out of the oven, with melting butter is a memorable taste sensation. The Morphy Richards automatic breadmaker can create that experience every morning. There's very little effort on the part of the baker, because the breadmaker is a sophisticated appliance with a computer memory that does all the work for you. It’s as simple as one-two-three.

48280 rev4:x 13/11/2009 11:12 Page 7 Room temperature note The breadmaker will work well in a wide range of temperatures, but there could be a difference in loaf size between a very warm room and a very cold room. We recommend the room temperature should be between 15ºC and 34ºC. Using the timer Use the timer when you want the bread ready later, or in the morning. A maximum of 13 hours can be set. Check if function is available by consulting ‘Baking cycle times’ section.
48280 rev4:x 13/11/2009 11:12 Page 8 Special care for the non-stick finish Avoid damaging the coating. Do not use metal utensils such as spatulas, knives or forks. The coating may change colour after long use, this is only caused by moisture and steam and will not affect the performance of the unit or quality of your bread. The hole in the centre of the kneading blade should be cleaned, then add a drop of cooking oil and replace it on the spindle in the baking pan. This will prevent sticking of the blade.

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 be reduced, however, your baking may suffer.

48280 rev4:x 13/11/2009 11:12 Page 17 NEED HELP? Questions about general performance and operation. Question 1 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 2 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.
48280 rev4:x 13/11/2009 11:12 Page 18 Question 17 Why does my bread rise and then collapse or crater? The bread may be rising too much. To reduce the rate of rising, reduce the amount of yeast and/or increase the amount of salt. Question 21 Can I premix the yeast with water? No, the yeast must be kept dry and put into the baking pan last, above the flour. this is especially important when the delay timer is being used.
