Notes on dough and preparation
Always prepare the dough directly in the dough container.
All liquids used should be in the temperature range roughly between 18°C and
23°C.
If possible, use dry yeast to make your dough. Fresh yeast is also suitable for use,
but it can be sensitive during the preparation.
Rye flour hardly rises at all during baking. The flour mix should therefore be made
up of a maximum of seven parts rye to at least three parts wheat flour.
If you are using very soft water or are located more than 900 metres above sea
level, the proving process will be stronger and your dough will rise more. If

For white and mixed grain breads, made mainly with plain
flour.
A fast programme for breads made with white flour only, with
a shorter baking process, producing bread with a slightly
more moist texture.
For breads with additional ingredients such as fruit juices,
coconut flakes, raisins, dried fruit or chocolate. A longer
proving phase makes the bread light and airy.
For light breads made with fine flour. Normally, the bread
is fluffy and has a crispy crust. It is not suitable for baking
recipes that require butter, margarine or milk.
For baking breads with a high proportion of whole grains. This
programme has a longer preheating phase to allow the grains
to soak up water and expand. Wholegrain loaves are usually
smaller and more compact with a thick, crispy crust.
If possible, avoid using the timer function for this programme,
as it can produce poorer results.
For breads made with cooked rice.
Breads made with gluten-free flours and bread mixes. Gluten-
free flours take longer to absorb liquid and behave differently
during baking.
