There are 14 pre-set programs :

Program #1: Basic White The Basic White bread program is used to makebasic bread recipes using bread flour.

Program #2: French The French bread program makes traditionalcrusty French bread recipes.

Program #3: Whole Wheat The Whole wheat program is used to make breadwith primarily whole wheat and whole grain flour.

Program #4: Sweet The Sweet program is used when making sweetbreads.

Program #5: ExpressThe Express bread program is a preset reducedtime program that makes a 2 1/2 pound loaf ofbasic white bread in 1 hour and 20 minutes, fromstart to finish. Use this program when short ontime. You cannot select and change the size northe loaf color when using this program.

Program #6: Gluten Free The Gluten free program is used to make breadsthat are gluten free, for those people who areintolerant to gluten. The bread pan should alwaysbe thoroughly cleaned to avoid any risk ofcontamination with other flours. In the case of astrictly gluten-free diet, be sure that the yeast isalso gluten-free. Because of the consistency ofdough made with gluten-free flours, the doughtends to stick to the sides of the pan. Therefore, itmust be scraped down with a flexible plasticspatula during kneading. Gluten-free bread willbe of a denser consistency and paler thantraditional breads.

Program # 7: Salt Free The Salt free program is used to make breadswithout salt.

Program #8: RyeThe Rye program is used to make rye bread usingprimarily rye flour or breads which use a variety ofseeds.

Program #9: BaguetteThe baguette program enables you to makedough for 4 individual baguettes that you willhand shape and then bake in the bread maker.This program has 2 steps.

Step #1: Kneading and rising of the doughStep #2: Baking of the baguettes(See Making Baguettes section, page 15 for details)

Program #10: CakeThe Cake program can be used to make cakesthat use all-purpose flour and baking powder, not yeast.

Program #11: Jam The Jam program automatically cooks jams andstewed fruits in the bread pan.

Program #12: Pasta This program only mixes dough for foods likefresh pasta.

Program #13: Dough The Dough only program kneads and rises doughfor pizza , rolls, and hand shaped sweet breadsthat you will bake in a conventional oven.

Program #14: WarmingThe Warming program is used for only reheatingor additional baking. The time ranges from 10 to70 minutes, adjusted by 10 minute intervals.

This program is used to:- warm breads or to make them crusty.

- finish baking in the event of a power outageduring the baking cycle.

UNDERSTANDING HOW YOUR BREAD MAKER WORKS

Flour:• For best results always use “bread flour” or

“flour for bread machines” rather than all-purpose flour when making breads that usewhite flour as they are specially adapted formaking bread, unless otherwise specified in therecipe.

• Whole wheat or whole grain flours and blendsmake for heavier dough that rises less and hasa denser texture.

• Depending on the quality of the flour, bakingresults may also vary. Always store flour in air-tight containers as it reacts to humidity in theair, absorbing moisture or losing it.

• Never sift flour when making bread andmeasure carefully.

• Never scoop flour directly from the canistersince air pockets can form and you will haveless flour than called for in the recipe.

• Always spoon flour into the correct-sizemeasuring cup a spoonful at a time.

• Mound flour and level it off with a knife.

• Never pack down flour.

Yeast:• Yeast is what makes the dough rise. You can

use any of the following yeasts: active dry yeast,quick-rise yeast or bread machine yeast.

• The quality of yeast can vary, and it does notalways rise the same way. Bread can thereforecome out differently depending on the yeastused.

• Old or poorly stored yeast will not work as wellas a freshly opened packet of dry yeast.

• All opened, unused packages of yeast shouldbe closed tightly or stored in an air-proofcontainer or plastic bag in the refrigerator orfreezer.

• Yeast does not have to be at room temperature.

• Always check the yeast packet expiration dateand discard any expired yeast.

• The recipe proportions indicated are for driedyeast. If you use fresh yeast, multiply thequantity by 3 (in weight) and dilute the yeast ina small amount of warm water with a little sugarfor more effective results.

Water:• Water, as do all liquids, rehydrates and

activates the yeast. It also helps the gluten, anatural protein found in wheat and other grains,to develop when dough is kneaded. The glutenis what gives bread its chewy texture.

• Chemically treated water high in chlorine orfluoride, or very hard or soft water, canadversely affect the yeast.

• Chemicals and hard water slow down the risingprocess while soft water can make the doughextra-sticky. If you find this to be a problem,replace the tap water with bottled water.

• Water can also be totally or partially replacedwith milk or other liquids.

• All liquids must be at room temperature.

Milk:• Recipes can use either liquid or powdered milk.

• Milk enhances the flavor and gives bread asofter, ivory-colored texture.

• You can substitute the water called for in anyrecipe with an equal amount of liquid milk.

• Many Basic Bread recipes call for powered milk.It is important that you use powered milk as itprovides a better texture.

• 2% or fat-free milk provide the best results.

Essential Bread Making IngredientsThe following are the basic ingredients that you will use to make bread and dough, along with some importanttips and suggestions. Be sure to read this information, use fresh ingredients at room temperature andmeasure carefully using measuring cups and spoons designed for cooking.

10 11

UNDERSTANDING HOW YOUR BREAD MAKER WORKSEggs:• Eggs make the dough richer and give it a more

golden color.

• All recipes provided with your bread maker weredeveloped using large eggs (1 large egg =approximately 1/4 cup of liquid); if your eggs arebigger, reduce the amount of liquid called for inthe recipe accordingly. If they are smaller, usemore liquid.

• If you want to add eggs to a recipe, you willhave to reduce the quantity of liquidproportionally. Break the egg/s into thegraduated beaker or a glass liquid measuringcup, and then add liquid until you reach thequantity 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 temperatureand cut it into small pieces so that it isdistributed evenly throughout the dough.

• You can substitute 1 tablespoon of butter for 1tablespoon of oil.

• Do not use hot, melted butter.

• Keep the fat from coming into contact with theyeast, as it can inhibit the yeast from activatingproperly.

• 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 orreal maple syrup when making bread.

• Do not use unrefined sugar or cubes.

• Artificial sweeteners cannot be substituted forsugar as the yeast will not react with them.

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 theyeast.

Additional Ingredients (soft cheeses,dried fruits, nuts, herbs, etc.):You can add a personal touch to your recipes byadding a variety of additional ingredients. Whenadding ingredients, be sure to:

• Add them following the beep for additionalingredients, especially those that are soft suchas dried fruits.

• Add items like whole, shelled nuts and seeds atthe start of the kneading process to ensureeven distribution.

• Thoroughly drain moist ingredients like cannedor fresh fruits and vegetables and olives.

• Do not add too large a quantity of additionalingredients, especially cheese, fresh fruit andfresh vegetables, as they can affect thedevelopment of the dough.

• Finely chop nuts as they can cut through theloaf 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 themanufacturer's instructions when using thesemixes.

• Usually, the choice of the program will dependon the type of mix purchased. For example:Whole Wheat bread - Program 3.

TIPS FOR GOOD BREAD AND DOUGH1. Instructions and recipes:• Read all instructional materials that came with

your bread maker and understand how theappliance works.

• Bread made in your bread maker is of excellentquality. However, it will be different than storebought or bakery bread. The bread will bechewier 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 muchyeast makes the structure of the bread morefragile; the dough will rise too high, too quickly,and then collapse while baking. Always use theamount specified in the recipe.

• All ingredients must be at room temperature(unless otherwise indicated) and must bemeasured exactly.

• Place all ingredients into the bread pan in theexact order given in the recipe.

• Yeast should not come into contact with liquids,fat, sugar or salt.

• Liquids should be between 70° to 80°F, undernormal baking conditions. In case of high heat,use liquids that are cooler than usual,approximately 68°, but no colder than 65°F.Likewise, if it is cold in your kitchen, it may benecessary to warm up the water or milk (neverexceeding 90°F).

• When making bread using the Express Breadprogram, the liquid should be 90° to 104°F).

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 aglass liquid measuring cup.

• Use the double spoon supplied to measureteaspoons on one side and tablespoons on theother.

• 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 periodsof high humidity.

• You may have to use less yeast (1/4 to 1teaspoon less, depending on the loaf size) andcooler water (68°F) 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 1tablespoon every 1,000 feet above 3,000 feet; donot 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 yetsticky to the touch ball which comes away easilyfrom the walls of the bread pan.

• If all of the flour has not been blended into thedough, add a little more water, a tablespoon at atime, up to 4 tablespoons.

• If the dough is too wet and sticks to the sides,you may need to add a little flour, a tablespoonat 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, thenyou might want to choose light.

• If you plan to bake a second loaf, always openthe lid and wait 1 hour before beginning thesecond loaf.

• For the baguette program, you have to bake thedough within one hour following the beepingsignal after the kneading and dough risingstages. Beyond that time, the machine resetsitself and the baguette program is lost.

8. Power failure:• If there is a power failure or the machine is

accidentally unplugged while making bread, themachine has a 7-minute protection time duringwhich the settings are saved. The cycle will startagain where it left off. Beyond that time, thesettings are lost.

(Fig. 8a) (The total program time for each setting is automatically displayed.)

Selecting The Loaf Size• The preset program of 2.5 lbs. will be automatically displayed.• If you want to change the setting, press the button until the indicator

light for the desired setting comes on. (Fig. 9) • Programs 5, 9, 11, 12, 13, 14 do not have weight setting options.

Selecting The Crust Color• The preset Medium setting will be automatically displayed.• If you want to change the setting, press the button until the indicator

light for the desired setting comes on. (Fig. 10) • Programs 5, 11, 12, 13 and 14 do not have a crust color setting option.

Starting The Bread Maker• To start the bread maker , press the button. (Fig. 8b above) The bread

maker will start mixing and the time corresponding to the program will be displayed. The successive steps will take place automatically, one after the other. The countdown clock tells you how much time remains until the bread or dough will be ready.

Using The Delayed Start• By following the below steps you can program the bread maker up to 15 hours in advance to have your

bread ready at the time you want. This function cannot be used on programs 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14.Note: With the delayed start program do not use recipes which contain fresh dairy or fruit as

these ingredients can spoil overnight.1. First, choose the program, crust color and loaf size. The program time will be displayed on the panel.

You will now need to calculate the time difference between the moment when you start the program(the current time) and the time when you want your bread to be ready. For example, if it is currently 8pm and you want your bread to be ready at 7 am, the time difference is 11 hours so you will need toprogram 11:00 hours onto the display.

Note: The bread maker automatically calculates the time to begin the bread making processbased on when you want the bread to be ready.

2. Program the calculated time you want your bread to be ready by using the (+) more and (-) lessbuttons until the display shows the calculated time.

Note: The timer advances by intervals of 10 minutes and a short beep will be heard each timeyou press the button. Holding the button down rapidly advances at 10-min intervals.

Place the baked loaf on a cooling rack for at least 1 hour to cool before slicing.• If the kneading paddles remain in the baked bread loaf when it is removed

from the loaf pan, use the hook accessory (16) as follows:1. While the bread is still hot, lay the bread on its side

(use oven mitts here as well)2. Insert the hook in the hole of the kneading paddle and pull gently to

release the kneading paddle. (Fig. 13) Tip: You can remove the paddles before the baking cycle begins (see cycle

chart for time) if you do not want them to be baked into your bread. Pleasebe sure to handle the dough gently so you do not compromiseits quality. You can also lightly oil the kneading paddles before adding the ingredients.

Understanding The Bread Maker Cycles

The bread maker will go through several cycles after you have selected the type of bread you want tomake. The following explains these different cycles.

KNEADING: Mixes the ingredients and develops the elastic dough structure.

REST: The dough has to rest after kneading so that it can rise better.

RISING: Yeast, after mixing with liquid, produces CO2 which is trapped in the dough creating airpockets 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 notbecome soggy. However, it is recommended that the bread be removed from the panpromptly after baking so that the crust is crisper.

MAKING A BASIC BREAD & BAGUETTESTo get to know and understand your bread maker, we suggest making a basic bread recipe andbaguette recipe.

To make the SANDWICH LOAF recipe, use preset Program 1 (loaf size 2.5 pounds, medium crust color)

SANDWICH LOAF RECIPEIngredients:1-1/3 cups Water2 Tbs. Oil2 tsp. Salt2 Tbs. Sugar2 1/2 Tbs. Powdered Milk4 1/4 cups Bread Flour1 1/2 tsp. Yeast

• Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed and place in bread maker.• Press the button. (Fig. 14) • The indicator light will come on. (Fig. 15) • The timer colon flashes. (Fig. 15) • The timer will count down and the bread making process will begin. The

bread will be ready to remove in 3 hours and 20 mins.• Remove loaf pan from bread maker. Remove loaf from pan and cool on

baking rack before slicing.

BAGUETTE RECIPEFor this 2-step recipe, you will need the bread pan and the baguette accessories: baguette baking rack(12), two non-stick baking trays (13), finishing blade (18) and brush (17).

To make the Baguette recipe, choose Program 9, medium crust color.

Ingredients:2/3 cup + 1 Tbs. Water 1 tsp. Salt 1 3/4 cup Bread Flour 1 tsp. Yeast

3 lb.2.5 lb.

Fig. 15

Step 1 : MIXING, KNEADING AND RISING OF THE DOUGH• Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order listed and place pan in the

bread maker.• Press the button repeatedly to select program (9).• Select the crust color Medium. (Fig. 16)• Press the Button. (Fig. 17)• The indicator light comes on and the timer colon flashes the time remaining

to the end of the dough making process. (Fig. 18)• The dough kneading cycle will being, followed by the rising cycle.The

automatic mixing, kneading and rising of the dough takes a total of 1 hourand 21 minutes.

• During the kneading stage, it is normal for the dough not to be evenlyblended.

• The bread maker will beep several times indicating that the kneading andrising of the dough is finished and the operating indicator will blink. (Fig. 18)

• Once the dough is ready, the machine stops and you have up to one hour toremove and hand shape the dough and then press the start button to beginthe baking process.

Note: If you do not initiate the baking process by pressing the startbutton within one hour, the machine resets itself and you will notbe able to bake the baguettes in the bread maker.

Note: The bread maker will also beep several times indicating when “add-ins” should be added. This time is indicated on the cycle chart(page 23) and should not be mistaken for the end of the rising cycle (the time to remove the dough).

Step 2 : SHAPING AND BAKING THE BAGUETTES• Remove the bread pan from the machine.• Sprinkle a little flour on your work surface.• Remove the dough from the bread pan and put it on your work surface.• Gently punch the dough to deflate.• Roll the dough into a ball and, using a knife, divide it into 4 equal portions

(Fig. 19)• Let the dough rest 5 minutes before shaping them.1) Flatten the dough into a rectangular shape, approximately 1/2 inch thick.2) Fold the longest length in half, facing you.3) Starting at one edge of the rectangle, press the dough together with the palm of your hand

throughout the length of the rectangle. You will get a thinner, more even rectangle.4) Flip the rectangle over.5) Fold the longest length in half again, facing you. The thickness and width of the dough must remain

even.6) Roll the dough with your hands into a baguette shape, without pressing too much. The length of the

baguette must not be longer than the length of the non-stick baking tray (approximately 7inches).

MAKING A BASIC BREAD & BAGUETTES7) Once you have shaped the baguettes, lay them on the non-stick trays with

the seam sides down(Fig. 20)

8) For optimal results, make 1/2 inch diagonal slits on the top of thebaguettes with the finishing blade or a serrated knife or scissors(Fig. 21 & 22)

9) Using the brush, generously dampen the top of the baguettes with water,while avoiding any accumulation of water on the non-stick trays.

10) Place the two non-stick trays onto the baguette rack. (Fig. 23)11) Set the baguette rack in your bread machine. The bread pan is not needed

in this baking step.12) Press the button once again to resume the program and start baking

the baguettes.13) At the end of the baking cycle, unplug the bread machine.14) Remove the baguette rack. Always use oven mitts as the rack is very hot.15) Remove the baguettes from the non-stick trays and let them cool on a rack.
