Question 18

Can I premix the yeast with water?

No, the yeast must be kept dry and put into the baking pan last, above the flour. This is especially important when the delay timer is being used.

Question 19

Why is there a large hole in the base of the bread?

This hole has been created by the kneading blade. Sometimes this hole is larger than normal. This is because the dough has rested to the side of the blade after the second kneading cycle - normal with bread makers. You could position the dough evenly in the base of the pan.
