Bread Making Tips
Making bread with a mixer is quite different from making bread by hand. Therefore,
it will take some practice before you are completely comfortable with the new process. For your convenience, we offer these tips to help you become accustomed to
•Always use the PowerKnead™ Spiral
Dough Hook to mix and knead yeast doughs.
•Use Speed 2 to mix or knead yeast dough.
Use of any other speed with heavy doughs may cause mixer to stop rotating to limit mixer damage. This is normal operation. If this occurs, turn the speed selector
to off, and then turn back on to a lower speed.
•Use a candy or other kitchen thermometer to assure that liquids are at temperature specified in the recipe. Liquids at higher temperature can kill yeast, while liquids at lower temperatures will retard yeast growth.
•Warm all ingredients to room temperature to ensure proper rising of dough. If yeast is to be dissolved in bowl, always warm bowl first by rinsing with warm water to avoid cooling of liquids.
•Allow bread to rise in a warm place,
80°F to 85°F, free from draft, unless otherwise specified in recipe.
