5. Add ingredients to the bread pan.
6. Before adding ingredients to the bread pan,
ensure they are:
a) Fresh. In particular, fresh flour and yeast are
critical – check the best before date stamped
on the package. For tips on checking the
freshness of your yeast, refer to the yeast
section in the 'Vital Ingredient' section.
b) Measured and weighed accurately. Refer to
'Tips for Better Bread Making - Measuring
and Weighing Ingredients'.
c) At room temperature 20°C–25°C, except
all liquids which should be approximately
27°C unless stated otherwise. Temperatures
too cool or too warm can prevent the yeast
from activating and affect the way the bread
rises and bakes.
7. Add ingredients to the bread pan in
the order listed in the recipe to ensure
the dough mixes thoroughly and rises
sufficiently.
• Liquid ingredients
• Fats
• Dry ingredients eg. salt, sugar, flour
• Yeast
8. Wipe any spilt ingredients from the rim
and outside of the pan and ensure it is clean
and dry.
NOTE
Do not under fill or over fill the bread pan as
the bread may not mix properly. The recipes
in this book are designed for 0.5kg to 1 kg
loaves. However, if developing your own
recipes, as a general guide, a minimum 300g
and maximum 675g of total dry ingredients is
recommended. On the jam setting, as a general
guide, a maximum 500g of fruit should
be used.
9. Return the bread pan to the baking
chamber. With the bread pan angled
slightly anti-clockwise from straight
(see photo), insert the pan into the chamber.
You will feel the breadpan fit snugly into
position and turn clockwise to lock into
position.
NOTE
It is important that the bread pan is properly
assembled onto the drive mechanism to ensure
the paddle operates correctly.
10. Lower the lid. It is not recommended to lift
open the lid during operation unless stated
in the recipe, to check the consistency of
the dough during the KNEAD phase, or to
glaze and add seeds to the top of the loaf
during the BAKE phase.
11. Plug in the power cord. Unwind the power
cord completely and insert the power plug
into a grounded power outlet. An alert will
sound and the LCD screen will illuminate.
The function options will appear with an
indicator on the pre-set BASIC setting.
