Warmer Drawer

Proof Bread

The warmer drawer has a Proof Bread feature that may be used to prepare bread dough. The recommended length of time to keep the bread dough in the warmer drawer is about 45-60 minutes. Be sure however to follow the recipe’s recommended times.

Since the bread dough will nearly double in volume be sure to place the prepared dough in a large bowl. Arrange the warmer drawer rack in the downward position (See Fig. 1) and place the bowl with dough on the warmer drawer rack.

Warmer drawer humidity controller

This feature may be used to control humidity levels in the warmer drawer. The humidity control knob is located on the inside front panel of the warmer drawer.

To help keep foods moist, move the handle to the right. This closes the vents and helps keep the moisture inside the warmer drawer. For crisp foods, move the handle to the left. This opens the vents and allows more of the moisture to escape.

For dry heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the

direction of (Less) (See Fig. 3). This allows more of the

moist heat to escape and provides a dryer environment for the food in the warmer drawer.

For moist heat: Slide the humidity control knob in the direction of (More) (See Fig. 4). More moisture will

remain in the warmer drawer cavity. This will help keep the food in the warmer drawer from drying out.

Important note:

For some types of servings you may want to store previously prepared food in a “dry heat” environment.

For frequent controller adjustments, slightly loosen humidity controller knob and slide to the desired position. To maintain a setting, adjust controller knob into position and tighten knob.
