DESCRIPTION OF PARTS NOTE: Short kneading blade to be used for cakes. Longer blade to be used for popcorn, jams, bread and dough. CONTROL PANEL Sweet The operation time for each program. This indicates the program you have chosen.
Making bread is easy, everyone knows that, but... It can be a bit messy. The result can be a bit unpredictable. Occasionally it might have to be thrown away (quietly). Open the windows to get rid of the burnt smell (before anyone else notices). And it never tastes quite the same as the last lot, either. The problem, of course, is that there are just too many variables, too many things to do; mixing, kneading, resting, knocking back, doing it over again, pre-warming, temperature, timing, answering the phone.
Select the colour of your crust – Light, Medium, or Dark crust. Set the timer (if appropriate) Start the program. When it’s finished, your bread maker will beep, and then it’ll keep your bread warm for an hour. Making bread Preparation 1. Place your bread maker on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface, close to a wall socket and out of reach of children. 2. Don’t plug it in yet. 3. Open the lid. 4.
3. Don’t use milk with the timer; it might curdle before the bread-making process starts. 4. Add any sugar and salt required by the recipe. 5. Add any “wet” ingredients- honey, syrup, molasses… 6. Add the dry ingredients – flour, dried milk, herbs, spices… 7. Add the dried yeast (or baking powder/baking soda) last.
