Step 5: Close the lid
It is not recommended to open the lid during
operation except to check the consistency of
the dough and add additional ingredients in the
kneading cycle, or to glaze and add seeds to the
top of the loaf in the baking cycle (refer page R35).
Step 6: Plug in the bread machine
Insert the power plug into a 230/240V volt power
outlet. Switch on at the power outlet.
The LED Screen will show 1P then automatically
change to show the total time 3:00 for the setting
(BASIC bread, MEDIUM crust). A red light will
illuminate beside BASIC on the MENU list on the
Control Panel.
Step 7: Select the bread setting and crust colour
Press the MENU button until the LED Screen
indicates the number of the required setting. The
red light on the MENU list will also indicate the
setting selected.
The letter P (MEDIUM crust) will also show in the
LED Screen when a bread setting is selected.
Press the CRUST button once to select H (DARK
crust) or twice to select L (LIGHT crust).
The crust selection is available on bread settings
1-7.
The BASIC, RAPID, SWEET, FRENCH, WHOLE
WHEAT and GLUTEN FREE BREAD settings are
programmed to make a 1kg loaf. However, a
750g loaf can be made on the same setting.
When making a 750g loaf it is recommended
to remove the loaf 10 minutes before the end
of the baking cycle. The weight of the bread
will vary depending on the weight of the raw
ingredients used (including the weight of the
water).
Note
Step 8: Start the bread machine
Press the START/STOP button to commence
operation. The total setting time will appear on
the LED Screen. The setting time will count down
in one minute increments. The colon : between
the hour and the minutes displayed will flash
throughout the kneading, rising and baking cycles.
The kneading cycles commence. During the
kneading cycles beeps will sound indicating the
correct time to add other ingredients.
Add-In Ingredient Beeper
The Baker’s Oven features an ‘Add-In Ingredient
Beeper’ which operates in the BASIC, RAPID,
SWEET, FRENCH, WHOLE WHEAT and DOUGH
settings. The bread machine will sound 10 beeps
at approximately 8 minutes before the end of the
second kneading cycle, indicating the time to add
any additional fruit, nuts, herbs, chocolate, etc.
required or as specified in the recipes.
The addition of ingredients at this time assists
with keeping fruits, etc. whole, rather than being
mashed through the dough making it heavy.
Open the lid, gradually add the additional
ingredients to the dough as it is kneading. Take
care not to drop the ingredients over the side of
the bread pan into the baking chamber, as these
may burn and smoke during the baking cycle.
Close the lid.
DO NOT PRESS THE STOP BUTTON TO ADD
INGREDIENTS AS THIS WILL CANCEL THE
SELECTED PROGRAM.
The rising cycles begin when the kneading cycles
end and the dough will start to rise. During the
rising cycles, the dough will be degassed twice
by the blade moving at the end of the first and
second rising cycles. The dough rises fully in the
third rising cycle.
