TIPS FOR BEST
RESULTS
To unlock the control panel, again press the buttons WEIGHT and
CRUST COLOR simultaneously. The signal sounds and the
appears. The control panel is ready for your input again.
For a successful baking process, please consider the following
factors:
• Never use larger quantities than those specified in this booklet.
Do not fill in more than 1000 g in total. Too much dough can rise
out of the bread pan and drop onto the hot heating elements, thus
causing risk of overheating, fire and electric shock.
• One important step of making good bread is to measure the
ingredients precisely. Even small deviations from the quantities
specified in the recipe may affect the baking results. You should
measure out the correct amount from liquids (water, milk, oil) via
measuring cups or measuring spoons. When measuring oil, the
measuring vessel must be completely dry. Solid ingredients (flour,
sugar, nuts, etc.) should be measured via kitchen scales to obtain
the correct amounts.
• If you do not have kitchen scales at hand, you may use measuring
cups and spoons even for solid ingredients. However, the meas-
uring vessel should provide an appropriate scale. This is crucial,
as the weight of various solid ingredients differ in volume from the
volume of water with the same weight. Spoon solid ingredients
into the measuring vessel and level off the surface at the correct
height. With most measuring vessels, do not tamper or heap the
food in the measuring vessel. As this additional amount would
influence the result considerably.
• Essential for good results is the order for putting the ingredients
into the bread pan. Generally, you should first add all liquids, then
sugar, salt, spices, and flavours. Thereafter, put flour on top of the
liquids without stirring. Add yeast or baking powder/soda as the
very last ingredient on top of the flour layer. Doing so, ensure that
the yeast will not come in contact with salt and any liquids.
• During the baking programs 1-8, after kneading for a while, short
acoustic signals will sound and the ingredients box will open auto-
matically, emptying its content into the bread pan. However, some
ingredients cannot be added via the ingredients box (very moist
or sticky foodstuffs or powder). These ingredients must be added
by opening the lid shortly, and pouring the ingredients directly into
the bread pan.
• If fruits are added too soon, the flavour will evaporate during the
mixing process. Thus, wait for the signal to add these ingredients.
• For several programs of the bread maker, you can set a delayed
start of the program by using the timer (see: "Using the Timer"). If
you have set the timer, you should put all the ingredients into the
bread pan and/or ingredients box before starting the program.
However, it is best to cut fruits and nuts into smaller pieces.
• Do NOT use the timer function, when working with perishable
ingredients such as eggs, milk, cream or cheese. The quality of
these ingredients will degrade, when not cooled.
