Some notes on browning
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying of the bread. Therefore,
differences in moisture level from one bread to another can result in varying
toasting times.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower setting than you normally would.
• For very fresh bread or whole wheat bread, use a higher setting than normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a
higher toast setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take longer to toast,
sometimes significantly longer, since more moisture must be evaporated from
the bread before toasting can occur. Very thick pieces may require two cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any loose raisins, etc. from
the surface of the bread before placing into the toaster. This will help prevent
fruit pieces from falling into the toaster or sticking on the guide wires in the
slot.
• Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal halves.
• Single slice toasting
If you are toasting a single slice of bread, set the heat selector to a lighter
setting than you normally would. The toaster is designed to heat the whole
toasting chamber for two slices. By lowering the heat for a single slice, you
won't overtoast.
• Frozen waffles, pancakes, french toast and frozen bagels
These breads and pastries should be warmed using the Defrost button. Select
preferred browning shade, push lever down and select Defrost. For example,
when toasting a frozen bagel, select Defrost the browning lever and then
Bagel.
• Toaster pastries
Exercise caution with toaster pastries; the filling can become quite hot, long
before the surface of the pastry becomes browned. Never leave toaster
pastries unattended while toasting or warming.
Tips
• Never force foods into the toasting slot. Foods should fit freely between the
guide wires.
• Do not place buttered breads or pastries with fillings or frostings in the toaster,
as this could create a fire hazard.
• Uneven toasting is usually due to bread slices of uneven thickness.
• After use, unplug your toaster from the electrical outlet.
