It is important to note that New Zealand
Use oven mitts to gently shake the bread out of the bread pan onto a wire rack. Check that the kneading blade remains on the drive shaft of the bread pan. Place the bread upright on the wire rack to cool. Allow sufficient cooling time before slicing the bread.
When baking is finished and the bread has been removed from the bread pan, remove the kneading blade from the pan using oven mitts. Do not remove the blade with bare hands, as it is very hot! If the kneading blade is difficult to remove from the drive shaft, pour some warm water with detergent into the pan and allow to stand for 10 minutes. The kneading blade should then be easily removed from the shaft. Follow ‘Care and Cleaning’ instructions on page 25.

Step 12: Making another loaf
Allow approximately one hour for the Baker’s Oven to cool before using again.
Open the lid to help cool the bread machine. If the Baker’s Oven is too hot the LCD screen will show an error code (refer page 24) and will not operate until it cools to the correct operating temperature for kneading and rising.
Step 13: Switch off and unplug the bread machine
Press the ‘Stop’ button to clear the finished setting. The LCD screen will reset to 1 1KG MEDIUM. Switch off at the power outlet and unplug the power cord from the power outlet.
To store the bread machine, ensure the bread machine is completely cool, clean and dry.
Place kneading blades into the bread pan then insert into the baking chamber and close the lid. Do not place anything on top of the bread machine during storage. Store the bread machine upright.
Before cutting the bread always ensure the kneading blade is in the bread pan and not in the bottom of the baked bread loaf.
When the bread is cool, cut the bread using a serrated bread knife or electric knife on a firmly seated breadboard. A standard knife is not suitable as it will tear the bread.
Breville recommends using the Breville Bread Slicing Guide – Model BS1. This foldable, lightweight cutting guide is the ideal accessory for any bread maker. The guide slots ensure straight, even slices every time when using a bread knife or electric knife.
Step 15: Store the bread
Store the bread in freezer bags or a sealable bread box. To store for more than a few days, place the bread into freezer bags. Remove air from the bags then secure with ties and label. Bread may be frozen for up to 1 month.

The New Zealand tablespoon is 5ml less than that of the Australian tablespoon, so care should be taken when measuring ingredients to compensate for the variance. For example, 1 Australian tablespoon = 1 New Zealand tablespoon + 1 New Zealand teaspoon.

Note
Metric weighing scales
For consistent results it is recommended to use metric weighing scales if possible as they provide greater accuracy than measuring cups. Tare (or zero) the scales with the container in position then spoon or pour ingredients in until the desired weight is achieved.
In general, water weighs the same in grams as it measures in millilitres.
Note
Metric measuring cups and spoons
If using the graduated, metric measuring cups, it is important to spoon or scoop the dry ingredients loosely into the required cup. Do not tap the cup on the bench, or pack the ingredients into the cup, unless otherwise directed. Level the top of the cup with a knife. When using graduated, metric measuring spoons, level the top of the spoon with a straight edged knife or spatula.
DO NOT USE TABLEWARE SPOONS OR CUPS.
