Bread Type Setting Descriptions SUPER RAPID BAKE/REGULAR Crust or DARK Crust (1:10 hours) DOUGH (2:00 hours) This setting makes bread-style dough. Dough can be shaped to make pizza, rolls, bread sticks, long loaves or braids that must then be baked in a conventional oven. This setting is used only to make selected recipes quickly whether you choose a REGULAR or DARK crust. Refer to the recipe section of this booklet for a complete list of all recipes that can be used with this setting.
How To Use Your Breadmaker Inaccurate measurements, even if only slightly off, can make a difference in results. For all SETTINGS (including DOUGH) follow these instructions: 1 Open the lid, grasp the wire handle with two hands, and remove the Baking Pan by pulling straight up and out. It is important to remove the Baking Pan from the unit rather than add ingredi● Yeast is always added last. Be sure that the yeast does not touch the liquid ingredients, salt or shortening.
How To Use Your Breadmaker to flash for up to 60 minutes after baking is complete and will keep bread warm during that time. At the end of the hour, the Keep Warm cycle will end and the light will remain on constantly, indicating the unit is still plugged in. The bread should then be removed as soon as possible to avoid getting soggy. You may remove the Baking Pan any time during the Keep Warm cycle.
How To Use Your Breadmaker the Baking Pan, slide a flat rubber or plastic spatula along the sides of the pan to loosen the loaf. Turn the pan over and shake the loaf out. Allow the bread to cool before slicing. If the Mixing Paddle remains in the Setting The Timer (For Delayed Completion) Use the TIMER when you would like to delay the completion of your bread or dough. This feature allows you to delay bake time for up to 13 hours. For example, it lets you set the TIMER at 7 p.m.
How To Use Your Breadmaker before the minutes have been set, press and hold the TIMER button. With the hour setting flashing again, immediately press the TIMER button to set the minutes. While the “00”is flashing, the minutes can be set to “30” using the “Up” or “Down” arrows. When the “30” stops flashing and the current time is displayed, the timer is set. To start the delayed completion timer, press the TIMER button.
Troubleshooting Guide NOTE: The number one cause for poor results is improper measurement of ingredients (see page 8). The checklist below offers several possible solutions. Try one adjustment at a time and only make one change per loaf. If results do not improve with the first adjustment, move to the next possible solution.
How To Use Your Breadmaker the freezer. If you store the bread in the refrigerator, leave it out to bring it to room temperature before serving. Since homemade bread has no preservatives, it tends to dry out and become stale faster than commercially-made bread. Slicing & Storing Bread For best results, allow loaves to cool on a wire rack 15 to 30 minutes before slicing. You may use an electric knife (such as the Black & Decker Slice Right™ Electric Knife Model EK300) for even slices.

Bread & Dough Ingredients Some ingredients differ between Canada and the United States. Cheese, confectioner’s (icing) sugar, and cornmeal are just a few ingredients that vary between the two countries. The major difference is in flour. Flours Canadian flours are milled from harder wheats so breads can be successfully made from national brands of both All-Purpose Flour and Bread Flour. U.S. “All-Purpose Flour” will produce poor results and should not be used with this unit. In the U.S.
Bread & Dough Ingredients * The following test can be used to determine whether your yeast is stale and inactive: A) Place 1/2 cup of lukewarm water into a small cup or bowl. B) Stir 1 tsp. of sugar into the water then sprinkle 2 tsp. of yeast over the surface. C) Place bowl or cup in a warm area and allow to sit for 10 minutes undisturbed.

Need Help? Q6: If the power goes out while I’m in the middle of a breadmaking cycle, will my Breadmaker continue to process my bread once the power comes back on? Questions About The Breadmaker : Q1: What do I do if the mixing paddle stays in the loaf? Is this normal? How do I remove the paddle? The breadmaker will only finish making bread if the power returns within 20 seconds.
Need Help? Q11: When I make dough, it is very sticky and difficult to work with. How can I handle it more easily? Q18: Why does some flour occasionally stick to the side of the bread? Dough may be somewhat sticky at the end of the dough cycle. This is normal. For best results, turn it out of the Baking Pan onto a floured surface, cover it and let it rest for 10 minutes. Lightly flour the board and your hands when handling the dough. This will make it easier to shape and divide.
Need Help? Q23: Sometimes when I cut my bread, it’s too sticky and it falls apart or it starts to mash down and won’t slice cleanly. What can I do? Q26: Can the recipe be cut in half? If your bread is sticky or mashes down, it may be too hot! Be sure to allow 15 to 30 minutes for your bread to cool before slicing. Place finished bread on a wire cooling rack to let air circulate around it. You may want to try using an electric knife to slice bread instead of cutting it manually.
