 UNDERSTANDING HOW YOUR BREAD MAKER WORKS
Eggs:
Eggs make the dough richer and give it a more
golden color.
All recipes provided with your bread maker were
developed using large eggs (1 large egg =
approximately 1/4 cup of liquid); if your eggs are
bigger, reduce the amount of liquid called for in
the recipe accordingly. If they are smaller, use
more liquid.
If you want to add eggs to a recipe, you will
have to reduce the quantity of liquid
proportionally. Break the egg/s into the
graduated beaker or a glass liquid measuring
cup, and then add liquid until you reach the
quantity of liquid indicated in the recipe.
Butter or Oil (fat):
Fat makes the bread softer and tastier.
Too much fat slows down rising.
If you use butter, soften to room temperature
and cut it into small pieces so that it is
distributed evenly throughout the dough.
You can substitute 1 tablespoon of butter for 1
tablespoon of oil.
Do not use hot, melted butter.
Keep the fat from coming into contact with the
yeast, as it can inhibit the yeast from activating
properly.
Do not use low fat spreads or butter substitutes.
Sugar:
Sugar acts as food for the yeast, flavors the
bread and can improve browning of the crust.
You can use white sugar, brown sugar, honey or
real maple syrup when making bread.
Do not use unrefined sugar or cubes.
Artificial sweeteners cannot be substituted for
sugar as the yeast will not react with them.
10
Salt:
Salt flavors the bread and regulates the yeast's
activity by slowing the rising action.
Use table or kosher salt when making bread.
Do not use coarse salt or salt substitutes.
Salt should not come into contact with the
yeast.
Additional Ingredients (soft cheeses,
dried fruits, nuts, herbs, etc.):
You can add a personal touch to your recipes by
adding a variety of additional ingredients. When
adding ingredients, be sure to:
Add them following the beep for additional
ingredients, especially those that are soft such
as dried fruits.
Add items like whole, shelled nuts and seeds at
the start of the kneading process to ensure
even distribution.
Thoroughly drain moist ingredients like canned
or fresh fruits and vegetables and olives.
Do not add too large a quantity of additional
ingredients, especially cheese, fresh fruit and
fresh vegetables, as they can affect the
development of the dough.
Finely chop nuts as they can cut through the
loaf structure and reduce the cooked height.
Ready to Use Bread Mixes:
Ready-to-use bread mixes can be found in
many local grocery stores. Follow the
manufacturer's instructions when using these
mixes.
Usually, the choice of the program will depend
on the type of mix purchased. For example:
Whole Wheat bread - Program 3.
TIPS FOR GOOD BREAD AND DOUGH
1. Instructions and recipes:
Read all instructional materials that came with
your bread maker and understand how the
appliance works.
Bread made in your bread maker is of excellent
quality. However, it will be different than store
bought or bakery bread. The bread will be
chewier and the crust thicker and crisper.
2. Ingredients:
Use fresh ingredients at room temperature.
Make sure that the yeast has not expired and
was stored properly.
A common error is to think that adding more
yeast will make the bread rise more. Too much
yeast makes the structure of the bread more
fragile; the dough will rise too high, too quickly,
and then collapse while baking. Always use the
amount specified in the recipe.
All ingredients must be at room temperature
(unless otherwise indicated) and must be
measured exactly.
Place all ingredients into the bread pan in the
exact order given in the recipe.
Yeast should not come into contact with liquids,
fat, sugar or salt.
Liquids should be between 70 to 80F, under
normal baking conditions. In case of high heat,
use liquids that are cooler than usual,
approximately 68, but no colder than 65F.
Likewise, if it is cold in your kitchen, it may be
necessary to warm up the water or milk (never
exceeding 90F).
When making bread using the Express Bread
program, the liquid should be 90 to 104F).
3. Measuring:
Measure ingredients using kitchen measuring
cups and spoons.
Spoon flour into the measuring cup and level off
with a knife.
Always measure liquids with the graduated
beaker included with your bread maker or a
glass liquid measuring cup.
Use the double spoon supplied to measure
teaspoons on one side and tablespoons on the
other.
All spoon measures are level and not heaping.
Incorrect measurements will give poor results
therefore do not sift dry ingredients or pack
them down.
4. Weather:
Weather conditions can affect how the bread
comes out.
Flour is very absorbent. Recipes may need to
be adjusted and more flour added during periods
of high humidity.
You may have to use less yeast (1/4 to 1
teaspoon less, depending on the loaf size) and
cooler water (68F) when it's very hot out.
5. Altitude:
High altitude affects how the dough develops
and the bread rises.
If baking bread at 3,000 feet above sea level,
reduce the water or liquid by approximately 1
tablespoon every 1,000 feet above 3,000 feet; do
not decrease by more than 4 tablespoons.
6. Consistency:
For best results, check the dough once it begins
to come together. It should form a smooth yet
sticky to the touch ball which comes away easily
from the walls of the bread pan.
If all of the flour has not been blended into the
dough, add a little more water, a tablespoon at a
time, up to 4 tablespoons.
If the dough is too wet and sticks to the sides,
you may need to add a little flour, a tablespoon
at a time, up to 4 tablespoons.
7. Crust and Baking:
Always select medium crust color unless making
bread that has a high sugar or fat content, then
you might want to choose light.
If you plan to bake a second loaf, always open
the lid and wait 1 hour before beginning the
second loaf.
For the baguette program, you have to bake the
dough within one hour following the beeping
signal after the kneading and dough rising
stages. Beyond that time, the machine resets
itself and the baguette program is lost.
8. Power failure:
If there is a power failure or the machine is
accidentally unplugged while making bread, the
machine has a 7-minute protection time during
which the settings are saved. The cycle will start
again where it left off. Beyond that time, the
settings are lost.

To make the Baguette recipe, choose Program 9, medium crust color.
Understanding The Bread Maker Cycles
The bread maker will go through several cycles after you have selected the type of bread you want to Ingredients:
make. The following explains these different cycles. 2/3 cup + 1 Tbs. Water
KNEADING: Mixes the ingredients and develops the elastic dough structure. 1 tsp. Salt
1 3/4 cup Bread Flour
REST: The dough has to rest after kneading so that it can rise better.
1 tsp. Yeast
RISING: Yeast, after mixing with liquid, produces CO2 which is trapped in the dough creating air
pockets that make the dough rise.
BAKING: Stops the dough from rising anymore and transforms it into a loaf of bread with a golden,
crispy crust and chewy crumb.
WARMING: Keeps the bread warm after baking while still in the bread maker so that the loaf does not
become soggy. However, it is recommended that the bread be removed from the pan
promptly after baking so that the crust is crisper.
