If the doughball is too wet
During the second kneading cycle,
check the consistency of the
doughball. If the doughball
appears sticky or wet, like pancake batter, sprinkle in flour, a
tablespoon at a time, until the doughball appears smooth,
round, and dry and circles nicely in the pan.
If the doughball is too dry
If the doughball appears flaky, or
you hear your breadmaker begin to
make “knocking” sounds, the dough
ball is too dry. To correct this
problem, simply sprinkle in water, a teaspoon at a time, until
the doughball appears smooth, round and dry, and circles
nicely in the pan. Be careful not to add too much water.
For Baking at High Altitudes
If you live above 3000 feet, you probably
already know how to adjust other recipes like
cakes and muffins. Higher altitudes tend to:
• make dough rise faster
• make flour drier
To compensate for high altitude baking, We recommend
the following:
If the dough is too dry
• increase the amount of water to the recipe, sometimes as
much as 2–4 tablespoons per cup.
