Problem
I want to bake several
loaves of bread one after
the other.
The bread has collapsed.
The inside of the loaf is
not ready.
The bottom of the bread
is too thick.
The bread has
overflowed.
H:HH appears on the
display.
E:EO appears on the
display.
Why can't I add extra
ingredients at the start of
the program?
Can I use milk instead of
water?
The crust is sometimes
lighter and sometimes
darker.
The bread machine is
kneading slower than
normal.

Solution
Allow the appliance to cool for 20 minutes with the lid open. A heated
device will cause the yeast to start working too quickly, which will harm
the result.
·
If the bread seems to have collapsed on all sides, this means that
the dough was too moist. Try adding a little less water. When using
preserved fruit or vegetables, drain it well and rub dry before using.
It has been soaked for a long time, meaning it will contain excess
moisture.
·
You can try using a lighter flour variety.
·
It may also have risen too much. The dough has risen so much that it
cannot cope with the rising. Try to add a little less yeast (1 to 2 grams).
·
This is usually the result of using heavier flours, such as rye flour or
wholemeal flour. Try using one more kneading process when using
these types of flours. When the bread maker has finished the first
kneading process, stop the machine. Then reset the unit and press
Start. The machine will start kneading again; there will now be a larger
amount of air in the dough.
·
Too much liquid.
·
Wrong programme selected.
You left the bread in the appliance a bit longer with the warming function
on. The water will evaporate, giving you a thicker bottom. Remove the
bread from the appliance immediately after the program.
·
You used too much yeast.
·
The yeast has been too strongly activated, e.g. by too much sugar or
too high a temperature.
·
You used too much dough. Do not use more than 1000 g.
The unit is still too hot. Allow the appliance to cool first.
There is a problem with the temperature sensor. Contact your dealer or an
authorised service centre.
The extra ingredients (such as currants or nuts), will be kneaded to pieces
and the bread will not be kneaded properly. It will also affect the rising.
Only add the extra ingredients once the appliance beeps, after kneading/
rising.
Yes! Always make sure that the complete volume of moisture is correct.
The ratio of milk and water makes no difference.
These can be selected with the 'Colour' button. Preparations with more
sugar will also make the crust darker.
This can happen with heavy flours, causing the engine to work harder.
However, this is not a problem for the machine. Add a tablespoon of liquid.
