OPERATING YOUR BREVILLE BREAD MAKER - BEGINNER’S GUIDE

NOTE

Although the bread maker is capable of making 0.5kg (1.0lb),1.5lb (0.75kg), 2.0lb (1.0kg) or 2.5lb (1.25kg) loaves, we recommend the larger sizes for a better uniform loaf. The ingredient quantities for the 0.5kg (1.0lb) loaf may not fill the bread pan to the ideal volume for a uniform loaf. This is especially true for breads that contain whole grains or other special ingredients. This is why some settings have limited or no loaf size options.

NOTE

The loaf sizes - 0.5kg (1.0lb), 0.75kg (1.5lb), 1.0kg (2.0lb) and 1.25kg (2.5lb) - are a guide to the size of the loaf only. Different ingredients will affect the actual weight and size of the baked loaf.

For example:

−− A 0.5kg loaf baked with fruit and nuts will be heavier than a plain 0.5kg loaf.

−− A 1.0lb 100% whole wheat loaf will be smaller and shorter than a 0.5kg regular white loaf as whole wheat flour does not rise as well as bread flour.

b)If you accidentally press the wrong loaf size, press the CANCEL button to return to the main menu and make your selection again.

10. Start the Bread Maker

The bread maker is now ready to activate, automatically calculating the recommended temperatures and times for the ‘preheat’, ‘knead’, ‘rise’, ‘punch-down’, ‘bake’ and ‘keep warm’ phases based on your selected setting, crust colour and loaf size. The LCD screen will indicate the recommended total cycle time.

a)To modify the recommended temperatures and times for the ‘preheat’, ‘knead’, ‘rise’, ‘punch-down’, ‘bake’ and ‘keep warm’ phases, refer to ‘Using the MODIFY button’, page 34.

b)To activate the cycle using the recommended temperatures and times for the ‘preheat’, ‘knead’, ‘rise’, ‘punch-down’, ‘bake’ and ‘keep warm’ phases, press the START PAUSE button. The button surround will illuminate red. As the cycle begins, the LCD screen will indicate the time remaining until the loaf is ready and the progress indicator will flash to indicate the current phase of the cycle.

NOTE

When using the bread maker for the first time you may notice the machine emit vapors. These are the protective substances on the heating elements. These are safe, not detrimental to the performance of the bread maker and will dissipate with use.

c)To pause the cycle, press and hold the START PAUSE button. Refer to ‘Using the PAUSE feature’, page 31.

d)To cancel the cycle, press and hold the CANCEL button until the LCD screen returns to the main menu.
