1. Wash the Baking Pan (6), Kneading Blade (7) in hot soapy water, dry thoughly.

2. Wipe the outside surface of the Main Unit (5) with a clean, damp cloth.

DO NOT use scouring pads or any abrasives on any part of the Breadmaker.

3. If using for the first time, use oil, butter or margarine to grease the Baking Pan and bake empty for about 10 minutes on the Extra Bake program.

4. Clean with a damp cloth again.

5. Place the Kneading Blade on the Rotating Shaft (8) in the Baking Pan.

During manufacturing it is necessary to lightly grease some parts of the appliance. This may result in the unit emitting some vapour when first used, this is normal.

The breadmaker has two settings to make either a small (1.5lb / 680g) or large (2lb / 907g) loaf (approximate weight, dependant upon recipe).

A fruit and nut beep signals when extra ingredients, such as fruit and nuts, can be added so they dont get chopped by the kneading blade.

The 1.5lb setting can be used to make a 1lb loaf for some of the recipes.

LCD Screen (9) Allows you to view the browning level, loaf weight, and programme selected. It also shows a countdown timer indicating the time left before completion (3:20, for example, is 3 hours and 20 minutes; 0:20 is 20 minutes.)

Timer delay buttons (10), (11) Can be used to delay the start of bread making process, so the baking process completes when you require. (All programs except Fastbake and Jam).

Loaf size button (12) For selecting the small (1.5lb) or large (2lb) loaf size (certain programs only).

Start (13) Press and hold for approximately 1 second to start, a beep sounds and the colon (:) flashes before the program starts.

1 Basic For white and brown breads. Can also be used for flavoured breads with added herbs and raisins. Gluten Free Bread.

2 French For the baking of light weight bread such as french bread which has a crisper crust and lighter texture.

3 Wholewheat For the baking of bread containing significant amounts of wholewheat. This setting has longer preheat time to allow the grain to soak up the water and expand. It is not advised to use the delay timer as this can produce poor results.

4 Quick For white bread that is required in a shorter time. Bread baked on this setting is usually smaller with a dense texture.

5 Sweet For the baking of sweet bread which gives a crisper crust than on basic setting. The crisper crust is produced by the sugar burning.

6 Fastbake I For preparation of a 1.5lb white loaf in a reduced time period. Loaves made on this setting can be shorter and the texture more moist.

7 Fastbake II For preparation of a 2lb white loaf in a reduced time period. Loaves made on this setting can be shorter and the texture more moist.

8 Dough This setting only makes the dough and will not bake the final bread. Remove the dough and shape it to make bread rolls, a pizza base, etc. Any dough can be prepared on this setting. Do not exceed (1kg / 2lb) of combined ingredients.

9 Jam Use this setting for making jam and marmalade. Do not increase the quantity or allow the recipe to boil over the pan into the baking chamber. Should this happen, stop the machine immediately. Remove the pan carefully, allow to cool a little and clean thoroughly.

10 Cake This setting will mix ingredients and then bake for a preset time. It is required to mix two groups of ingredients before adding to the Breadmaker (see cake recipes on pages 14 & 16).

11 Sandwich This is to bake light texture bread but with a softer, thicker crust.

12 Extra Bake This setting is bake only and can be used to increase the baking time on selected settings. This is especially useful to help set jams and marmalade. When started, the default time is 1 hour (1:00) minimum and counts down in 1 minute intervals. You will have to manually switch this off by pressing the stop button, when you have completed the Extra bake process, It is advised that you check the progress of the bread or jam at 10 minute intervals. This may be before the 1 hour bake period is compeleted.

When selecting Extrabake straight after another program, if the message H:HH is displayed, open the Lid (4), remove the Baking Pan (6) and allow to cool for 10 minutes. When cool, replace the Baking pan and its contents, set program and press start.

The timer can be used to delay the start of the baking programme, perfect for fresh bread first thing in the morning. A maximum of 13 hours can be set. Do not use this function with recipes that use perishable ingredients such as eggs or fresh dairy produce.

1 Decide when you want the bread to be ready and calculate the difference in time between now and then. For example, if you want a loaf at 8am, and it is now 7.30pm, the difference is 1212 hours.

2 Enter this time by pressing the Time Increase and Decrease Butons (10),(11). This will adjust the time in 10 minute increments. When set to the correct time (e.g. 12:30,) press the Start/Stop Button (13), the colon (:) will flash.

If you have selected the wrong time press and hold the Start / Stop Button for 2 seconds to cancel.

The timer will go back to the program time stage. Repeat steps 1 and 2.

The timer delay is up to a maximum of 13 hours.

The beeper sounds:

When pressing any button.

During the second kneading cycle of certain programs to indicate that cereals, fruit, nuts or other ingredients can be added.

When the programme finishes.

When keep warm finishes.

After a brief power supply failure:

If the programme has not yet reached rise 1, press Start and the programme will continue using the automatic repeat function;

If it has gone beyond this point, the ingredients will have to be discarded and you must start again with fresh ingredients.

Place all recipe ingredients into the Baking Pan (6) so that the yeast is not touching any liquid.

If you are using the machine on the Dough setting (programme 8), after the cycle is complete, remove the dough from the Breadmaker, keeping the dough inside the Baking Pan. Cover in a thin coating of sunflower oil, cover with greaseproof paper and a dry tea towel. The dough should then be left in a warm area free from draughts, for approximately 30 minutes, or until it has roughly doubled in size.

Humidity can cause problems, therefore humidity and high altitudes require adjustments. For high humidity, add an extra tablespoon of flour if the consistency is not right. For high altitudes,decrease the yeast amount by approximately 1/4 teaspoon, and decrease the sugar and/or water or milk quantity slightly.

When recipes call for a lightly floured surface use about 1 to 2 tablespoons (tbsp) of flour. You may want to lightly flour your fingers or rolling pin as well for easier handling.

If the dough you are rolling shrinks back, let it rest covered for a few minutes before rolling again.

Dough may be wrapped in plastic and stored in a freezer for later use. Thaw and bring to room temperature before using.

After 5 minutes of kneading, open the Lid (4) and check the dough consistency. The dough should form a soft, smooth ball. If too dry, add liquid. If too wet, add flour (1/2 to 1 tablespoon at a time).

Since homemade bread has no preservatives it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially made bread.

Do not open the Lid whilst the Breadmaker is operating as this will affect the quality of the bread, especially its ability to rise properly. Only open the Lid when the recipe needs you to add additional ingredients (see recipes).

The Breadmaker will work well in a wide range of temperatures, but there could be a difference in loaf size between a very warm room and a very cold room. We recommend the room temperature should be between 15C and 34C. All ingredients, and liquids (water or milk), should be warmed to room temperature 21C (70F). If ingredients are too cold, below 10C (50F), they will not activate the yeast. Hot liquids, above 40C (104F), may kill the yeast.

The most important step when using your Breadmaker is measuring your ingredients precisely and accurately. It is extremely important to measure liquid and dry ingredients properly or it could result in a poor baking result. Do not use normal kitchen teaspoons (tsp) or tablespoons (tbsp). The ingredients must also be added into the Baking Pan in the order in which they are given in each recipe. Liquid and dry ingredients should be measured as follows:

Measuring Cup (17) The cup is marked in various volume measurement scales. The recipes in this book use the cup volume which is equal to 8 floz and is marked in 1/16 divisions.

If you want to use weight measurement you must use a good quality set of digital scales, we prefer to use the cup measure for consistency and accuracy.

Liquid Measurements Use the Measuring Cup (17) provided. When reading amounts, the measuring cup must be placed on a horizontal flat surface and viewed at eye level (not on an angle). The liquid level line must be aligned to the mark of measurement.

Dry Measurements Dry measurements must be done using the Measuring Cup provided or using a set of digital weighing scales. Dry measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once filled, levelling off with a knife. Tapping a measuring cup will pack the ingredients and you will end up with more than is required. This extra amount could affect the balance of the recipe. Do not sift the flour, unless stated.

When measuring small amounts of dry or liquid ingredients there are two Measuring Spoons (18), with the following capacities - 1 tablespoon (tbsp), 1 teaspoon (tsp) and 1/4 teaspoon (tsp). Measurements must be leveled off, not heaped as this small difference could throw out the critical balance of the recipe.

This machine requires that you carefully follow the recipe instructions. In basic cooking, normally a pinch of this and a dash of that is fine, but not for breadmakers. Using an automatic Breadmaker requires you to accurately measure

each ingredient for best results.

Always add ingredients in the order they are listed in the recipe.

Please note that the measuring cups are based on the American standard 8 fluid ounce cup, NOT the 10 fluid ounce British cup.

Accurate measuring of ingredients is vital. Do not use larger amounts.

It is often said that cooking is an art relying on the creativity of the chef, while baking bread is much more of a science. This means that the process of combining flour, water and yeast, results in a reaction that produces bread. You have to remember that when the ingredients combine with each other they produce a specific result. Read the following information carefully to gain a better understanding of the importance each ingredient plays in the breadmaking process. In all of the recipes you create yourself, never exceed a total amount of 5 cups of dry ingredients (that includes the total amount of flour, oats, oatmeal, bran.) Also do not exceed the total amount of 3 teaspoons (tsp) of yeast and 5 teaspoons of baking powder.

Flours, while visibly similar, can be very different by virtue of how they were grown, milled and stored. You may find that you will have to experiment with different brands of flour to help you make that perfect loaf. Storage is also very important, as all flours should be kept in an airtight container.

All Purpose Flour/Plain Flour All purpose flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours especially suitable for making cake. This type of flour should be used for recipes in the cake/quick bread section.

Strong White Flour/Bread Flour Bread flour is a high gluten/protein flour that has been treated with conditioners that give dough a greater suitability for kneading. Bread flour typically has a higher gluten concentration than All purpose flour; however, depending on different milling practices, this may vary. Strong plain flour or bread flour are recommended for use with this Breadmaker.

Wholewheat Flour/ Wholemeal Flour Wholewheat flour/wholemeal flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel which contains the bran and germ and makes it heavier and richer in nutrients than white flour. Breads made with this flour are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves.

To overcome this wholewheat flour/wholemeal flour can be mixed with Bread flour or strong plain flour to produce a lighter textured bread.

Self-Raising Flour Self-raising Flour contains unnecessary leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and cake making. It is not recommended for use.

Bran Bran (unprocessed) & Wheat Germ are the coarse outer portions of the wheat or rye grains separated from flour by sifting or bolting. They are often added in small quantities to bread for nutritional enrichment, heartiness and flavour. They are also used to enhance the texture of bread.

Oatmeal Oatmeal comes from rolled or steel-cut oats. They are used primarily to enhance flavour and texture.

Yeasts (Active Dry Yeast) Yeast through a fermentation process produces gas (carbon dioxide) necessary to make the bread rise. Yeast must be able to feed on sugar and flour carbohydrates in order to produce this gas. There are three different types of yeast available: fresh, traditional dry active, and fast action. It is recommended that fast action yeast be used for the recipes in this book. Fresh or compressed cake yeast is not recommended as they will produce poor results. Store yeast according to manufacturers instructions. Ensure your yeast is fresh by checking its expiration date. Once a package or can of yeast is opened it is important that the remaining contents be immediately resealed and refrigerated for future use. Often bread or dough, which fails to rise is due to stale yeast being used. The following test can be used to determine whether your yeast is stale and inactive:

1 Place half a cup of lukewarm water into a small bowl or cup.

2 Stir 1 tsp. of sugar into the water then sprinkle 2 tsp. of yeast over the surface.

3 Place bowl or cup in a warm area and allow to sit for 10 minutes undisturbed.

4 The mixture should foam and produce a strong yeast aroma. If this does not occur, discard mixture and start again with another packet of dried yeast.

Sugar Sugar is important for the colour and flavour of breads. It is also food for the yeast as it is part of the fermentation process. Artificial sweeteners cannot be used as a substitute for sugar as the yeast will not react properly with them.

Salt Salt is necessary to balance the flavour of breads and cakes, as well as for the crust colour that develops during baking. Salt also limits the growth of yeast so the amounts shown in the recipes should not be increased. For dietary reasons it may be reduced, however, your baking may suffer.

Liquids/Milk Liquids such as milk or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavour, provide a velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Some liquids call for juice (orange, apple, etc) to be added as a flavour enhancer.

Note: For most recipes we suggest the use of dry (powdered) skimmed milk.

Eggs Eggs add richness and a velvety texture to bread doughs and cakes.

Sunflower Oil Shortens or tenderises the texture of yeast breads. Butter or margarine can be used as a substitute. If butter or margarine is used direct from the refrigerator it should be softened first for easier blending during the mixing cycle.

Baking Powder Baking powder is a raising agent used in cakes. This type of raising agent does not require rising time before baking as the chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added.

Bicarbonate Of Soda Bicarbonate of soda is another raising agent, not to be confused or substituted with baking powder. It also does not require rising time before baking as the chemical reaction works during the baking process.

Give your just baked bread a professional finish. Select one of the following special glazes to enhance your bread.

Egg Glaze Beat 1 large egg and 1 tablespoon of water together, brush generously.

Note: apply only to doughs before baking. *Not recommended for Gluten Free Breads.

Melted Butter Crust Brush melted butter over just baked bread for a softer, tender crust.

Milk Glaze For a softer, shiny crust, brush just baked bread with milk or cream.

Sweet Icing Glaze Mix 1 cup sifted icing sugar with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk to make a glaze consistency and drizzle over raisin bread or sweet breads.

Poppy/Sesame/Caraway Seeds/Oatmeal Sprinkle your choice of these seeds generously over just glazed bread.

Follow the information for bread mixes on the bread mix packet. Some brands of bread mixes recommend the use of the basic programme setting. There are 2 types of bread mixes currently available.

Just Add Water These mixes are complete and they have all the necessary ingredients provided, even the yeast. You only add water.

IMPORTANT: Follow the packet instructions as some mixes contain more than the normal amount of yeast, which could over rise in the Baking Pan. Use a maximum of 3 cups of mix.

These mixes are more prone to over-rising and collapsing when the weather is hot and humid. Since these mixes are complete, we cannot advise how to adjust. Bake in the coolest part of the day, use water between 21-28C.

Just Add Flour And Water These mixes have the necessary ingredients in separate sachets. Remember strong white bread flour is required. A packet of this mix will produce a 700g (1.5 lb.)

With a Breadmaker, even the most inexperienced baker can achieve the satisfying experience of baking a loaf of bread. Inside the Breadmaker, the dough is mixed, kneaded, proved and baked without you being present. The Breadmaker can also just prepare dough, and when it's ready, you shape, allow to rise and bake in a conventional oven. The recipes on the following pages are tailored for this Breadmaker.

Each recipe features ingredients that best compliment a particular loaf of bread, and each was tested in our machines.

It is extremely important not to exceed the amounts of flour specified in each of the recipes or else it could result in unsatisfactory baking performance. When creating your own yeast bread recipes or baking an old favourite, use the recipes in this book as a guide for converting your recipe to your Breadmaker.

Gluten Free Bread (Basic Prog. 1) For those following a wheat free diet, a selection of recipes for gluten free bread and cakes have been developed. These recipes make use of gluten free flour blends and other gluten free ingredients, available from most good supermarkets or online.

Please be aware that the method for making gluten free breads and cakes in the following recipes is slightly different to those made with wheat flours. See each individual recipe for details.

To obtain as smooth a surface as possible on gluten free bread we recommend scraping any flour residue from the sides of the pan with a silicone spatula. This should be done within the first two minutes with the paddle mixing.

Milk or water should still be warmed to between 21 28C for gluten free bread making, though this is not necessary when making gluten free cakes.

The characteristics of gluten free bread made in your Bread maker are also different to bread made with wheat flour. Bread may be paler on the top than the sides and without the rounded top that loaves made with wheat flour possess. We do not recommend using an egg glaze before baking as the dough is very soft.

Gluten free Breads should be baked on Basic Programme 1 using the 1lb loaf setting.

Gluten Free cakes should be baked on Cake Programme 10.

Gluten Free White Loaf Loaf size: 112 lb (680g) Gluten free white bread flour blend 450g Gluten free yeast 7g (2 level tsp) Medium eggs (beaten) 2 Sunflower oil 6 tbsp White wine vinegar 1 tsp Semi skimmed milk between 21C - 28C 345 ml Salt level tsp Caster sugar 2 level tbsp

Method 1 Mix the flour and yeast together in a bowl and set aside.

2 Beat the eggs, oil, vinegar and 325ml milk in a large jug and pour into the baking pan.

4 Place the pan into the Breadmaker, select medium crust, 1lb loaf size and basic programme 1. With the lid up, press start.

5 Add the flour and yeast mixture a tablespoon or two at a time whilst the paddle is mixing. This should take about 1-1 minutes. When all the flour has been added to the pan, add the remaining 20ml milk, scrape any flour from the pan sides with a silicone spatula and close the lid. The mixture will resemble a thick smooth batter.

6 After baking, turn out of the baking pan immediately and allow to cool on a wire rack.

Liquids, Flour And Others We recommend that you use the Measuring Cup and Spoons (17) ,(18) provided for all recipes for consistency between brands and types of flour.

The cup provided is based on the American cup measurement of 8 Floz.

For people who prefer to use their own measuring utensils, alternative measurements are in millilitres (ml) and cubic centimetres (cc) for liquid measurement and grams (gm) for weight of flour, sugar and fruit.

Note: A good quality set of accurate kitchen scales with divisions and accuracy to 2 grams are required.

A measuring jug with divisions of 2 ml is required.

The tablespoon and teaspoon provided are required to measure the smaller quantities. A set of British standard spoons with scrape level tops can be used.

Do not use a kitchen tablespoon or teaspoon as they are inaccurate.

Question 1 What should I do if the kneading blade comes out with the bread? Remove it with a pair of plastic tongs before slicing the bread. Since the Kneading Blade (7) can be disconnected from the Baking Pan (6), it is not a malfunction if it comes out in your bread.

Question 2 Why does my bread sometimes have some flour on the side crust? In some cases, the flour mix may remain on the corners of the Baking Pan (6). When this happens, it usually can be eaten or simply trim off that portion of the outer crust with a sharp knife.

Question 3 Why isn't the dough mixing? I can hear the motor running. The Kneading Blade or Baking Pan (6) may not be inserted properly. Make sure the pan is facing the right way and that it has seated correctly into the bottom of the Breadmaker.

Question 4 How long does it take to make bread? Timings for each setting are outlined on page 15.

Question 5 Why can't I use the timer when baking with fresh milk? The milk will spoil if left sitting in the Breadmaker too long. Fresh ingredients such as eggs and milk should never be used with the delay timer feature.

Question 6 Why do I have to add the ingredients in a certain order? This allows the Breadmaker to mix the ingredients in the most efficient manner possible. It also serves to keep the yeast from combining with the liquid before the dough has started to mix, which is essential on the time delay.

Question 7

When setting the timer for morning, why does the Breadmaker make sounds late at night? The Breadmaker must start operation when the delay timer reaches the start time of the program so that the bread will be ready. These sounds are made by the motor when kneading the dough. It is a normal operation, not a malfunction.

Question 8 The Kneading Blade (7) is stuck in the Baking Pan (6). After baking how do I get it out? The Kneading Blade may stick in place after baking. Running warm or hot water over the blade should loosen it enough to be removed. If still stuck, soak in hot water for about 20 minutes.

Question 9 Can I wash the Baking Pan (6) in the dishwasher? No. The Baking Pan and Kneading Blade (7) must be washed by hand. Do not use scouring pads during cleaning.

The delay timer is available on all programmes except 6 and 7 Fastbake. Maximum delay is 13 hours

An add ingredients beep signals when more ingredients can be added such as fruit and nuts, which needs to be added after the kneading cycles have ended.

The heating is switched on and off only if the temperature is lower than 121C

Question 10 What will happen if I leave the finished bread in the Baking Pan (6)? Whilst still in the Breadmaker for the first hour after baking is complete the bread keeps warm to prevent it becoming soggy. Leaving the bread in the Breadmaker after the keep warm period may result in a soggy loaf of bread as excess steam (moisture) would not be able to escape. Remove and allow to cool on a wire rack after baking to prevent this.

Question 11 Why did the dough only partially mix? The dough may be too heavy or dry. Also, the Kneading Blade (7) or Baking Pan (6) may not be inserted properly. Ingredients may have been added in the wrong order.

Question 12 Why didn't the bread rise? The yeast could be bad, past its sell by date or possibly no yeast was added at all. Also, if the mixing was not complete, rising problems could develop.

Question 13 Why can't the delayed finish be set for more than 13 hours? What is the minimum time a cycle may be delayed? The maximum length of delay is 13 hours including the total cycle time. For example, Setting 1 (basic small) has a cycle time of 3:20. This start is delayed by a maximum of 9:40. The minimum length of delay for each setting is 10 minutes. The delay clock increases and decreases in increments of 10 minutes.

Question 14 How do I know when to add raisins, nuts, etc. to the bread? There is a beeper tone to signal that you may add raisins, nuts, etc. during the second kneading cycle. Note: See Baking cycle times chart for Add nuts & raisins time. In some cases, ingredients can be broken up during the initial kneading cycle. Each recipe indicates the best time to add fruit and nuts to the dough.

Question 15 How come my bread comes out too moist? What can I do? Humidity may affect the dough. Add an extra tablespoon of flour. Also, high altitude may have the same effect. Decrease the amount of yeast by 1/4 teaspoon and decrease the sugar and/or water/milk slightly.

Question 16 Why do I get air bubbles at the top of the bread? This can be caused by using too much yeast. Decrease the yeast by 1/4 tsp.

Question 17 Why does my bread rise and then collapse or crater? The bread may be rising too much. To reduce the rate of rising, reduce the amount of yeast and/or increase the amount of salt.

Question 18 Can I use my favourite bread recipes (traditional yeast bread) in my bread machine? Yes, but you will need to experiment to get the right proportion of ingredients. Become familiar with the unit and make several loaves of bread before you begin experimenting. Never exceed a total amount of 5 cups dry ingredients (that includes the total amount of flour, oats, oatmeal, bran). Use the recipes in this book to help determine the ratio of dry ingredients to liquid and amounts of yeast, sugar, salt, and oil/butter/margarine to use. We advise creating your own bread recipes using the basic mode, then progress to the others, using the Baking cycle times chart (page 15) as a guide.

Question 19 Is it important for ingredients to be at room temperature before adding them to the baking pan? Yes, even when the delay timer is being used, (water must be between 21C and 28C).

Question 20 Why do the loaves vary in height and weight? The wholewheat / wholemeal breads are always shorter. Am I doing something wrong? No, it is normal for wholewheat and wholemeal breads to be shorter and denser than basic or french breads. wholewheat and wholemeal flour are heavier than white bread flour, therefore they may not rise as much during the bread baking process. This is also true for bread containing fruit, nuts, oats and bran.

Question 21 Can I premix the yeast with water? No, the yeast must be kept dry and put into the baking pan last above the flour, this is especially important when the delay timer is being used.

Question 22 Why is there a large hole in the base of the bread? This hole has been created by the Kneading Blade. Sometimes this hole is larger than normal. This is because the dough has rested to the side of the blade after the second kneading cycle - normal with bread makers. You could position the dough evenly in the base of the pan.

Difficult to remove from the Baking Pan (6)

The bread is sticking to the pan. The surface of the pan needs to be oiled before everyday use. Wash the pan in hot soapy water and thoroughly dry. Liberally coat the inner surface of the pan with oil, butter or margarine. Follow the guide on page 5, Using your Breadmaker. When the bread pan is removed from the machine after the baking programme allow the bread to cool in the pan for 15 minutes before turning out onto a rack. Only slice the bread when fully cooled after 20-40 minutes.

Paint thinner

Benzine

Steel wool pads

Polishing powder

Chemical dust cloth

Special care for the non-stick finish Avoid damaging the coating. Do not use metal utensils such as spatulas, knives or forks.

The coating may change colour after long use, this is only caused by moisture and steam and will not affect the performance of the unit or quality of your bread.

The hole in the centre of the Kneading Blade should be cleaned, then add a drop of cooking oil and replace it on the spindle in the Baking Pan. This will prevent sticking of the blade.

Keep the Air Vents (1) and openings clear of dust.
