HELPFUL HINTS for Bread & Dough
We recommend that you read the following information before you shop for your ingredients. Your Bread Maker will bake up to a 2
pound loaf of fresh bread containing 4 cups of flour. All ingredients except liquids must be at room temperature and liquids should be
approximately 80ºF/27ºC (baby bottle temperature). When preparing bread for the ULTRA FAST program, all liquid temperatures must
be 115º-125ºF/45º-51ºC. Always place the ingredients in the bread pan in the order listed in the recipe: liquids, dry ingredients and then
yeast. Some ingredient amounts are the same for different size loaves.
MEASURING...The Correct Way
Be sure to measure accurately for success. Mis-measuring, even slightly, can make a big difference in your results.
When you are measuring liquids, use a clear glass or plastic liquid
measuring cup. To ensure accuracy, set the measuring cup on the
counter top and read the measurement at eye level.
To measure your flour, spoon it lightly into a standard dry ingredient
measuring cup and level it with a straight edge. Also, do not shake
the cup or tap it on the counter top. Do not scoop the flour with the
measuring cup as this tends to pack more flour than the recipes call
for.
Use standard measuring spoons and level with a straight edge.
