This is vapour residue from the ingredients carried up in the escaping steam during baking.
Know 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 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. measurement. A ‘guesstimate’ is not good enough as it could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.

Need help? Questions about general performance and operation Question 1 What should I do when the kneading blade comes out with the bread? Remove carefully when cold 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.
Questions about ingredients and recipes Question 14 Why is my breadmaker making a loud noise? The pan may not be correctly located, press it until it locks into place. Question 15 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.
