How to use your breadmaker 1 Open the lid and remove the baking pan by raising the handle and twisting anti-clockwise and then lift out. Place baking pan on the work surface. 2 Ensure that the paddle is attached inside the baking pan (this simply pushes on). 3 Measure the ingredients required and add them all into the pan in the order listed.
Care and cleaning 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: • Never use metal utensils with this appliance. These can scratch the non-stick surface of the baking pan.
Knowing your ingredients Understanding baking 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. This means that the process of combining flour, water and yeast results in a chemical reaction that produces bread. You have to remember that when the ingredients combine with each other they produce a specific result.
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 liquids 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.
not for breadmakers. Using an automatic breadmaker requires you accurately measure each ingredient (especially yeast and water) for best results. For best results, have your ingredients and breadmaker at room temperature unless otherwise specified. Ingredient temperatures All ingredients, including the machine and pan, and 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.

Fastbake The Fastbake programme (58 mins) is designed to produce a traditional white loaf in a fraction of the time it takes with the standard programme. Quality of taste and texture is generally retained using this method. The cycle time is reduced by starting the dough mixture at higher temperature so the ingredients and temperature are more critical. • As the Fastbake programme is dependent on the correct water temperature, it is recommended that you do not use the delay timer.
baking. Running warm or hot water over the blade should loosen it enough to be removed. If still stuck, soak in hot water for about 30 minutes. Question 10 Can I wash the baking pan in the dishwasher? No. The baking pan and kneading blade must be washed by hand. Question 11 What will happen if I leave the finished bread in the baking pan? Whilst still in the breadmaker for the first hour after baking is complete the bread ’keeps warm’ to prevent it becoming ‘soggy’.
Troubleshooting Possible cause Solution Bread sinks in the centre Too much liquid or liquid too warm Measure ingredients accurately. Use liquids at temperatures between 21°C and 27°C Salt was not added, causing bread to over rise and collapse Measure ingredients accurately Too much yeast was added Measure ingredients accurately.
Large amounts of rich ingredients like nuts, butter, dried fruits, syrups and grains will make dough heavy. This will slow down the rising and prevent the bread from baking through Measure ingredients accurately.
