BASIC STEPS FOR
PROGRAMMING YEAST BREAD SETTINGS
For Basic White Bread Setting:
Step 1:
Remove baking pan by opening the machine lid and holding baking pan by its handle. Attach the
kneading blade to the rotating shaft (see diagram on page 4). Insert the kneading rod through the outside
of the baking pan by fitting the two small fins of the kneading rod to the slots in the outside hole on the
baking pan. The kneading blade and rod must be firmly attached to insure proper mixing, and to prevent
fluids from leaking through the baking pan.
Step 2:
Place ingredients in the baking pan in the order given in the recipe. The yeast always goes on top, so that
it does not come in contact with the liquid during the preheating stage. This machine automatically
preheats the liquids to the proper temperature before the mixture goes through the mixing process.
Step 3:
Insert the baking pan into the unit with the kneading rod facing the front panel and the handle folded
down toward the front. The kneading rod should slide firmly into the holder inside the front of the unit,
and the pan should "snap" into place. Then close the lid.
Step 4:
Plug in the machine, and the display panel will show the present time (if time needs to be set, see
"Setting the Clock" page 6). The panel will also show a "Medium" Baking Degree and the "Basic White
Bread" setting.
Step 5:
Change the Baking Degree setting by pressing to desired "Light," "Medium," or "Dark." "Medium" is
usually the best setting for basic yeast breads that contain little sugar or added ingredients.
Step 6:
If you wish to start the cycle immediately, press "Start." The red "Preheating/Operation" light will go on,
until liquids reach the proper temperature. The panel will also display the completion time.
Step 7:
Do not lift the lid during the cycle. You can check progress by looking through the viewing window. Be
careful not to touch the sides of the machine during the baking process, as the outer surfaces can become
uncomfortably hot.
Step 8:
The "Complete" light will start blinking about 30 minutes before the end of the cooling cycle. You can
allow the bread to cook inside the unit, or remove it immediately. To remove, press the "Reset" button to
stop the cycle. Or, wait until the machine beeps about 8 times and flashing light stops to indicate the end
of the cycle.
Step 9:
Remove baking pan by grasping the handle with hotpads and pulling the pan up out of the unit. Be sure
to place the baking pan on a heatproof surface (never on top of the Home Bakery). With hotpads pull out
the kneading rod; then turn bread out onto a cooking rack.
If the kneading blade comes out with the bread, remove it with a pair of tongs or a hotpad. Unplug the
Home Bakery. Turn bread upright on rack; cool completely before slicing. An average loaf is about 6 -7
inches tall. The top crust may be rounded, or have a wavy, undulating shape; these are normal results and
do not affect the quality of your load.
For Quick Baking Setting:
Step 1:

setting.
Step 2:
Press Select Course bar until the display panel arrow points to "Quick Baking" setting.
Step 3:
Continue with steps 6 through 9 for "Basic White Bread" setting.
