How to make bread

• 1. Place the pan in position, then turn it clockwise until they click in correct position.Fix the kneading blade onto the drive shafts. Turn the kneaders clockwise until theyclickintoplace. It is recommended to fill holes with heat-resisting margarine prior to placing the kneaders, this avoids the dough to stick below the kneaders and the kneaders could be removed from bread easily.
• 2. Place the ingredients into the bread pan. Please keep to the order mentionedintherecipe. Usually, the water or liquid substance should be put first, then add sugar, salt and flour, always add yeast or baking powder as the last ingredient. In case of heavy dough with high Rye or wholemeal portion we advise to reverse the order of ingredients. i.e.so fill it in first with the dry yeast and flour, and finally the liquid to get a better kneading result.

Note: To know the maximum quantity of the flour and yeast that can be used, please refer to the recipe.

• 3. Using your finger make a small indentation on one side of the flour. Addyeasttoindentation. Make sure it does not come into contact with the liquid ingredients or salt.
• 4. Close the lid gently and plug the power cord into a wall outlet.
• 5. Press the Menu button until your desired program is selected.
• 6. Press the COLOR button to select the desired crust color.
• 7. Press the LOAF SIZE button to select the desired size (1.5LB or 2.0LB).
• 8. Set the delay time by pressing Time+ or Time- button. You can skip this part if you want the bread maker to start working immediately.
• 9. Press the START/STOP button to start working.
• 10. For the program of BASIC, FRENCH, WHOLE WHEAT, SWEET, GLUTENFREE, a long beep sound will be heard during operation. This is to prompt youtoaddingredients. Open the Lid and put in the ingredients. It is possible that a steam will escape through the vent slits in the lid during baking. This is normal.
• 11. Once the process has been completed 10 beeping sound will be heard. You can press START/STOP button for approx. 3-5 seconds to stop the process and take out the bread. Open the Lid and while using oven mitts, firmly grasp the bread pan handle. Turn the pan counter-clockwise and gently pull the pan straight up and out of the machine.

• 13. Turn bread pan upside down onto a clean cooking surface and gently shake until bread falls out from the rack.
• 14. Remove the bread carefully from the pan and let it cool for about 20 minutes before slicing.
• 15. If you are outside of the room or have not pressed START/STOP button at the end the operation, the bread will be kept warm automatically for 1 hour and then the “keeping warm” function will stop.
• 16. When not in use or the operation is complete, unplug the power cord. Note: Before slicing the loaf, use the hook to remove the kneading blade hiddenonthebottom of loaf. The loaf is hot, never use the hand to remove the kneading blade.

Special introduction

1. For Quick breads

Quick breads are made with baking powder and baking soda that are activated by moisture and heat. For perfect quick breads, it is suggested that all liquids be placed in the bottom of the bread pan, dry ingredients on top. During the initial mixing of quick bread batters and dry ingredients may collect in the corners of the pan, it may be necessary to hep machine mix to avoid flour clumps. If so, use a rubber spatula.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Disconnect the machine from the power and let it cool down prior to cleaning.

• 1. Bread pan: Rub the bread pan inside and outside with a damp cloth. Do not use any sharp or abrasive agents for the consideration of protecting the non-stick coating. The pan must be dried completely prior to installing.
• 2. Kneading blade: If the kneading bar is difficult to remove from the axle, fill the container with warm water and allow it to soak for approx. 30 minutes. Thekneadercanthen be easily removed for cleaning. Also wipe the blade carefully with a cotton damp cloth. Please note that both the bread pan and kneading blade are dishwasher-safe components.
• 3. Lid and Window: Clean the lid inside and outside with a slightly damp cloth.
• 4. Housing: Gently wipe the outer surface of housing with a wet cloth. Do not use any abrasive cleaner to clean as this would degrade the high polish of the surface. Never immerse the housing into water for cleaning.
• 5. Before the bread maker is packed away for storage, ensure that it has completely cooled down, is clean and dry, and put the spoon and the kneading blade in the drawer, and the lid is closed.

Introduction of bread ingredients

1. Bread flour

Bread flour has high content of high gluten (so it can be also called high-gluten flour which contains high protein), it has good elastic and can keep the size of the bread from sunken after rising. As the gluten content is higher than the common flour soit can be used for making bread with large size and better inner fiber. Bread flour is the most important ingredient of making bread.

2. Plain flour

Plain flour is made by mixing well-chosen soft and hard wheat and applicable for making express bread or cakes.

3. Whole wheat flour

Whole wheat flour is made by grinding whole wheat, it contains wheat skinandglutenwhole wheat flour is heavier and has more nutrient than common flour. The bread made by whole wheat flour is usually small in size. So many recipes usuallycombinethewhole wheat flour and bread flour to achieve best results.

4. Black wheat flour

Black wheat flour, also named as“rough flour”, is a kind of high fiber flour that is similar to the whole wheat flour. To obtain the large size after rising it must be used in combination with high proportion of bread flour.

5. Cake powder

Cake powder is made by grinding soft wheat or low protein wheat, which is specially used for making cakes. Different flour seems to be alike, actually yeast performanceorabsorbability of various flour differs largely for growing areas, growth reasons, grinding process and storage life. You may choose flour with different trademark totest, taste and compare in local market, and select the one which could produce the best result according to your own experiences and taste.

6. Corn flour and oatmeal flour

Corn flour and oat flour are made by grinding corn and oatmeal respectively, they both are the additive ingredients of making rough bread, which are used for enhancing flavor and texture.

7. Sugar

Sugar is very important ingredient to add sweet taste and color of bread. While it helps to yeast bread as nourishment, white sugar is largely used. Brown sugar, powder sugar or cotton sugar may be called by special requirements.

8. Yeast

Yeast passes doughy yeasting process, then produces carbon dioxide, making bread expand and inner fibre soft. However, yeast fast breeding needs carbohydrateinsugarand flour as nourishment.

• 1tsp. active dry yeast =3/4 tsp. instant yeast
• 1.5tsp. active dry yeast =1 tsp. instant yeast
• 2tsp. active dry yeast =1.5 tsp. instant yeast

Yeast must be stored in refrigerator as it will be killed at high temperature. Before using,check the date and storage life of your yeast. Store it back to the refrigerator as soon aspossible after each use. Usually the failure of bread rising is caused by the dead yeast.The ways described below will check whether your yeast is fresh and active or not.

（1）pour 1/2 cup warm water 113-122 into a measuring cup

（2）Put 1 tsp. white sugar into the cup and stir, then sprinkle 2tsp. yeast over the water.

（3）Place the measuring cup in a warm place for about 10min. Do not stir the water.

（4）The froth will be up to 1 cup. Otherwise the yeast is dead or inactive.

9. Salt

Salt is necessary to improve bread flavor and crust color. But salt can also restrain yeast from rising. Never use too much salt in a recipe. If you don't want to use salt, omit it.And bread would be larger if without salt.

10. Egg

Eggs can improve bread texture, make the bread more nourish and larger insize. Add special egg flavor to bread. When using it must be peeled and stirred evenly.

11. Grease, butter and vegetable oil

Grease can make bread be soft and delay storage life. Butter should be melted or chopped to small pieces before using, so it can be stirred evenly when you take it out from refrigerator.

12. Baking powder

Baking powder is mainly used for rising the Quick bread and cake as it doesnotneedrise time and produce gas which will form bubble or soften the textureofbreadutilizing chemical principle.

13. Soda

The same principle as above. It can also be used in combination with baking powder

14. Water and other liquid

Water is essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking, water temperature between 68 and 77 is the most proper. But the water temperature should be within 113-122 for achieving rising speed for making Quick bread.

The water may be replaced with fresh milk or water mixed with 2% milk powder, which may enhance bread flavor and improve crust color. Some recipes may call for juice for the purpose of enhancing bread flavor, e.g.: apple juice, orange juice, lemon juice and so on.

Ingredients weight

One of the important steps for making good bread is using proper amount of ingredients.It is strongly suggest to use measuring cup or measuring spoon to obtain accurate amount, as it can largely affect the baking process and result.

1. Weighing liquid ingredients

Water, fresh milk or milk powder solution should be measured with measuring cups. Observe the level of the measuring cup with your eyes horizontally. When you measure cooking oil or other ingredients, clean the measuring cup thoroughly without any other ingredients.

2. Measure dry powder

Dry powder should be kept in natural and loose conditions, level the cup mouth gently by blade to ensure accurate measure.

3. Ingredient sequence

The sequence of placing ingredients should be observed, generally speaking, the sequence is: liquid ingredients, eggs, salt and milk powder, etc. When placing the ingredients, the flour can't be wet by liquid completely. The yeast can onlybeplacedonthe dry flour. Exclusively, yeast can't touch with salt. After the flour has been kneaded for some time, a beep will remind you to put Fruit ingredients into the mixture. If the fruit ingredients are added too early the flavor will be diminished after longtime mixing. When you use the delaying function for a long time, never add the perishable ingredients such as eggs, fruit ingredient, etc.
