INTRODUCTION
Bread plays an important role in our nutrition.
Who has never dreamed of making their own freshly baked bread at home?
Now you can using a breadmaker.
Whether you are a beginner or an expert, all you have to do is add the ingredients and the breadmaker
does the rest. You can easily make bread, bread dough, pizza dough, brioche, pasta and jam effortlessly.
However be aware that to make the most of your breadmaker a certain learning curve is necessary. Take
the time to get to know it and don’t be disappointed if your first attempts aren’t quite perfect. But if you’re
impatient to make your first loaf, one of the recipes in the quick-start paragraph will help you take your
first steps. Note that the texture of the bread you’ll get is more compact than bread from a bakery.
Also, remember that all baked loaves have a hole underneath where the kneading paddle is positioned
while the bread is baking in the pan.
FIRST STEPS
Tips for making good bread
1
Read the instructions carefully and use the recipes: breadmaking using this appliance is not the same as
breadmaking by hand!
2
All the ingredients used must be at room temperature and should be weighed precisely.
Measure
liquids with the graduated beaker supplied. Use the double doser supplied to measure
teaspoons on one side and tablespoons on the other.
All spoon measures are level and not
heaped. Incorrect measurements give bad results.
3
For successful bread making using the correct ingredients is critical (see page 20 & 21). Use ingredients
before their use-by date and keep them in a cool, dry place.
4
It is important to measure the quantity of flour precisely. That is why you should weigh out flour using a
kitchen scale. Use packets of active dry baker’s yeast. Unless otherwise indicated in the recipe, do not
use baking powder. Once a packet of yeast has been opened, it should be used within 48 hours.
5
To avoid disturbing the preparation while it is rising, we recommend that you place all the ingredients into
the pan at the beginning and do not open the lid during use. Carefully follow the order of ingredients and
quantities indicated in the recipes.
First the liquids, then the solids. Yeast should not come
into contact with liquids, sugar or salt.
General order to be followed:
Liquids (butter, oil, eggs, water, milk)
Salt
Sugar
Flour, first half
Powdered milk
Specific solid ingredients
Flour, second half
Yeast
