your personal preference. It then stores it in the

 

 

 

 

 

memory of the bread maker.

 

 

 

 

 

This is particularly useful if you have a favorite

 

 

 

 

 

recipe that you regularly bake. Alternatively,

 

 

 

 

 

for advanced bakers it allows you to factor

 

 

 

 

 

in variables such as the brand and type of

 

 

 

 

 

flour, quality of the yeast, altitude and climate

 

 

 

 

 

considerations. For example, in a humid climate

 

 

 

 

 

the rising cycles can be reduced.

as quick-rise yeast, rapid-rise yeast, fast-rising

 

 

 

 

 

yeast, fast-acting yeast or bread machine yeast)

 

 

 

 

 

must be used with this setting or the bread will not

Almost any BASIC recipe can be modified for use

 

 

 

 

 

with the BASIC RAPID setting by replacing Active

 

 

 

 

 

Dry Yeast with an equal or larger amount of Instant

 

 

 

 

 

Yeast. We also recommend adding Vital Wheat

 

 

 

 

 

Gluten. For recommended quantities, Refer to ‘Vital

 

 

 

 

 

Wheat Gluten’, page 45 and ‘Yeast’, page 46.
