2 Getting Started 1 Place the breadmaker on a counter where the plug will reach an outlet. DO NOT yet plug the machine into the wall outlet. Y ou will be shown later when to do this. Make sure you can open the breadmaker top without hitting the top of kitchen cabinets.
3 3 Attach the kneading blade to the baking pan, as shown. Y ou will find the kneading blade in a small plastic wrap attached to the power cord. 4 Set the pan aside.
4 Let’ s Bake Br ead The simplest way to learn how to bake bread is to follow a basic recipe. The following r ecipe is easy and the bread is delicious.
5 Measuring THE most important secret of making br ead. Exact measurements. That’ s the key to successfully baking bread. Exact measur ements. With wet ingredients, use ONL Y measuring cups with the cups/ ounces marked clearly on the side.
T emperatures too cool or too high can affect the way the bread rises and bakes. Last, it’ s a good idea to start with all new , fresh ingredients (especially fresh flour and yeast).
7 1 Carefully measur e 1 and 1/3 cups water . Remember , use water that is room temperature. DO NOT use very hot or very cold water . It’ s a good idea to view the measuring cup at eye level to make sure you have measured exactly 1 and 1/3 cups. 2 Pour the water into the bread pan.
This takes care of all of the liquid ingr edients for the recipe. Next come the dry ingr edients. 4 Measure 4 cups of br ead flour . Make sure not to “overpack” the flour into the cup. T o avoid over packing, a good trick is to fill the measuring cup to overflowing, then tap the side of the cup with a knife or spatula to remove air pockets.
9 Carefully snap the baking pan into the breadmaker . 10 Close the lid of the bread machine and plug the power cord into the wall outlet. The following things will happen. The machine will “beep,” and the lights of the display will turn on. The time setting will say “3:00” hours.
12 Press the “Start/Stop” button and your machine will start making bread. Y ou will hear the breadmaker begin to mix the ingredients. Important: Do NOT press the “Start/Stop” button while the breadmaker is making br ead. If you do, the machine will turn off and you will need to start over again, from scratch.
After the bread is baked Caution: Do not put your face near the lid when you open the breadmaker . Hot steam may escape that could burn you. Important: The breadmaker has an automatic “keep warm” setting that will keep your bread warm for up to one hour .

25 Experienced cooks consider breadmaking to be as much of an art as a science. Keep in mind that some recipes may requir e a little experimentation before they are exactly the way you want them. Just don’t give up. Still, there ar e special hints to ensuring quality bread almost every time.
depending on the area of the country in which you live. W e recommend using fr esh bread flour . • Y east. Fresh yeast is probably the most important ingredient in baking br ead. If the yeast is not fresh, your bread may not rise. It is better to buy new yeast than to take a chance on yeast that has been stored for a long time.
If the doughball is too wet During the second kneading cycle, check the consistency of the doughball. If the doughball appears sticky or wet, like pancake batter , sprinkle in flour , a tablespoon at a time, until the doughball appears smooth, round, and dry and cir cles nicely in the pan.
If the bread rises too high • reduce the amount of yeast. For each teaspoon of yeast, try reducing the yeast by 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon. • reduce the amount of sugar .
