Mellerware 26550550W manual Fruit and Nut Dispenser, Baking Process

Fruit and Nut Dispenser.

Your Ma-baker Pro has an automatic Fruit

&Nut dispenser which automatically releases dry ingredients into the dough during the kneading cycle. This will occur approximately 8 minutes before the completion of knead 2, ensuring that the dried fruits & nuts are not crushed and the pieces remain whole and are evenly dispersed.

The capacity of the fruit & nut dispenser is 1 cup of dry ingredients and is an available option on all menu settings but we recommend use only on the Basic (1), Gluten/Yeast Free (3), Wheat (4) and Sweet Bread (5).

The Fruit & Nut dispenser is yet another feature of your Ma-baker Pro, which was designed for, added convenience to you, taking the guess-work out of recipes.

The Baking Process.

Fruit and Nut Despenser

Mixing, Kneading, Rising, Baking.... Here’s

a glimpse of how your Mellerware.

Ma-baker Pro automatically does all the steps for you.

the bread a more even and appetising texture. The Ma-baker Pro handles this process automatically for you by turning on the kneading blade for just the right amount of time.

Mixing and kneading

In standard bread baking, the baker mixes the ingredients first by stirring, then by kneading the dough by hand. The Ma-baker Pro mixes

and kneads the dough automatically for you.

Rising

When making bread by hand, the dough is placed in a warm place to rise after mixing, so that the yeast can ferment and produce gas. After mixing the dough, the baker maintains the

optimum temperature for rising during this part of the process.

If you are using the Dough Only cycle, the baker will stop at the end of the

first rising. The dough can now be removed and shaped - focaccia, pizza or any other creations, and placed in your own oven for baking.

Knock Down

Once the dough has risen, the baker will typically “knock down” the dough. This process helps to break apart large, unwanted pockets of air and gas that have developed through rising, giving

Second Rise

After it is knocked down, the bread bounces back, it rises a second time. Some breads require shorter or longer rising times. For example, wheat breads require a long rising time because the flour contains bran and wheat germ which inhibits rising. The Ma-baker Pro regulates

the temperature and timing of this second rise automatically for you based on your selection.

Bake

The Ma-baker Pro automatically regulates baking time and temperature for perfect results every time!

Cool

In standard baking, the baker removes the bread from the pan immediately to keep the crust from turning soggy. However the Ma-baker Pro

has a 60 minute keep warm feature which helps remove the hot air from the baking chamber after the bread is done. This keeps the crust from getting soggy. After removing the bread leave to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing.
