Frequently Asked Questions
May I use a sugar substitute in place of sugar?
Sugar is necessary for yeast to produce a light loaf with a good height.
Results may vary with the type and amount of sugar substitute used.
May I omit salt or sugar from the recipe?
No, both sugar and salt play an important role in the breadmaking
process. Salt prevents yeast from overreacting and bread from
overrising. The combination of sugar, salt, and yeast is a key part of
the breadmaking process. Remember that total sugar and salt amounts
are divided among all the slices, so the amount of sugar and salt per
serving is small.
When do I add raisins, nuts, etc. to bread?
Place add-in ingredients in Mix-in Dispenser. Ingredients will
automatically be added to the dough. Machine beeps 8 times when
ingredients are dispensed.
Can I open Lid while Bread Maker is operating?
This Bread Maker is designed with a Viewing Window in Lid to let you
watch your bread's progress. Quick checks are OK in early stages of
kneading. Use a rubber spatula to scrape sides of Pan while Bread
Maker is mixing to ensure all ingredients are blended. However,
temperature in Baking Chamber adjusts for rising and baking stages.
Opening Lid during these steps could cause loaf to fall or not bake
properly. Sometimes condensation forms on Viewing Window after
initial mixing and kneading. It usually disappears once baking cycle
starts so you should be able to get a clear view of your loaf.

Can I use my favorite bread recipes in my Bread Maker?
Yes, but you will need to experiment to get the right proportion of
ingredients. Become familiar with machine and make several loaves of
bread with recipes provided before you begin experimenting. Never
exceed a total amount of 4 1/4 cups (1 L) of dry ingredients (that
includes flours, oats, cornmeal, etc.). Use the recipes in this book to
help determine the ratio of dry ingredients to liquid and amounts of
yeast, sugar, salt, and butter/margarine to use.
What will happen if I leave bread in Bread Pan after baking?
This machine has a 1-hour Warm cycle that lets you leave bread in
pan for up to an hour after baking is complete. Once warming cycle is
over, it is best to remove bread immediately or bottom of your loaf will
absorb moisture and become soggy.
Can recipe be cut in half?
No, it is not recommended. The ingredient proportions work better in
the full amounts.
How can bread mixes be used in machine and at what setting?
The package instructions will list amount of water and amount of yeast
to use. Be sure to add liquid, then dry ingredients, followed by yeast.
Do not allow yeast to sit in liquid. The bread type setting is dependent
upon type of bread mix being used (i.e., White bread uses Basic bread
cycle; Sweet bread cycle is for use with dried fruit, cheese, or nuts;
whole-wheat or multigrain should use Whole Grain setting; Crust
setting, either Light, Medium, or Dark, is a personal preference). Do not
use bread mixes that exceed 2-lb. (907-g) loaf size.
What is the difference between American flour and Canadian flour?
Canadian flour has a higher protein or gluten content than American
flour. You can substitute American flour in even amounts for Canadian
flour. However, Canadian flour may absorb more moisture. Check your
dough during first kneading cycle. If it appears dry, you may add up to
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of additional water per cup of flour in the recipe.
Add the water 1 tablespoon (15 ml) at a time until desired consistency
of a soft and supple dough is reached.
