Question 10

What will happen if I leave the finished bread in
the Baking Pan (6)?

Whilst still in the Breadmaker for the first hour after baking is
complete the bread ’keeps warm’ to prevent it becoming
soggy. Leaving the bread in the Breadmaker after the keep
warm period may result in a ‘soggy’ loaf of bread as excess
steam (moisture) would not be able to escape. Remove and
allow to cool on a wire rack after baking to prevent this.

Question 11

Why did the dough only partially mix? 

The dough may be too heavy or dry. Also, the Kneading Blade

(7)

or Baking Pan 

(6)

may not be inserted properly. Ingredients

may have been added in the wrong order.

Question 12

Why didn't the bread rise?

The yeast could be bad, past it’s sell by date or possibly no
yeast was added at all. Also, if the mixing was not complete,
rising problems could develop.

Question 13

Why can't the delayed finish
be set for more than 13 hours? What is the
minimum time a cycle may be delayed?

The maximum length of delay is 13 hours including the total
cycle time. For example, Setting 1 (basic small) has a cycle
time of 3:20. This start is delayed by a maximum of 9:40. The
minimum length of delay for each setting is 10 minutes.
The delay clock increases and decreases in increments of 10
minutes.

Question 14

How do I know when to add raisins, nuts, etc. to
the bread?

There is a beeper tone to signal that you may add raisins,
nuts, etc. during the second kneading cycle. Note: See
‘Baking cycle times’ chart for ‘Add nuts & raisins’ time. In
some cases, ingredients can be broken up during the initial
kneading cycle. Each recipe indicates the best time to add
fruit and nuts to the dough.

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.

Question 16

Why do I get air bubbles at the top of the bread?

This can be caused by using too much yeast. Decrease the
yeast by 1/4 tsp. 

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 18

Can I use my favourite bread recipes (traditional
yeast bread) in my bread machine?

Yes, but you will need to experiment to get the right
proportion of ingredients. Become familiar with the unit and
make several loaves of bread before you begin experimenting.
Never exceed a total amount of 5 cups dry ingredients (that
includes the total amount of flour, oats, oatmeal, bran). Use
the recipes in this book to help determine the ratio of dry
ingredients to liquid and amounts of yeast, sugar, salt, and
oil/butter/margarine to use. We advise creating your own
bread recipes using the basic mode, then progress to the
others, using the ‘Baking cycle times’ chart (page 15) as a
guide.

Question 19

Is it important for ingredients to be at room
temperature before adding them to the baking
pan?

Yes, even when the delay timer is being used, (water must be
between 21°C and 28°C).

Question 20

Why do the loaves vary in height and weight?
The wholewheat / wholemeal breads are always
shorter. Am I doing something wrong?

No, it is normal for wholewheat and wholemeal breads to be
shorter and denser than basic or french breads. wholewheat
and wholemeal flour are heavier than white bread flour,
therefore they may not rise as much during the bread baking
process. This is also true for bread containing fruit, nuts, oats
and bran.

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.

Question 22

Why is there a large hole in the base of the
bread? 

This hole has been created by the Kneading Blade.
Sometimes this hole is larger than normal. This is because the
dough has rested to the side of the blade after the second
kneading cycle - normal with bread makers. You could
position the dough evenly in the base of the pan.  

Bread Sinks in the centre.

Too much liquid or liquid too warm.

Measure ingredients accurately. Use liquids at temperatures
between 21°C and 28°C.

Salt was not added, causing bread to over rise
and collapse.

Measure ingredients accurately.

Too much yeast was added.

Measure ingredients accurately, if problem persists, reduce
yeast by 1⁄4 teaspoon.

High humidity and hot ambient temperatures can
cause bread to over rise and collapse.

Bake during the coolest part of the day, Try reducing the yeast
by 1⁄4 teaspoon or use liquids direct from the refrigerator. Do
not use the timer function.
