Measuring Ingredients

New Zealand standard metric kitchen measures have been used for all the recipes. All measurements should be level. Accuracy with measuring is important when making bread in a breadmaker.

To measure flour

For optimum results we recommend weighing flour. If scales are not available, use a set of standard metric cups and part cups. Do not use tableware cups. Stir the flour in the storage container, then using a scoop or a large spoon overfill the measuring cup without tapping or shaking. Use the back of a knife to scrape off the excess so that the flour is just level with the rim of the cup.

To measure water

Use a standard metric measuring cup graduated in 10 ml divisions. Place the cup at eye level on a flat surface and fill to the required level.

To measure other ingredients

Use standard metric spoons. A New Zealand metric teaspoon holds 5ml and a metric tablespoon holds 15ml. (note: an Australian metric tablespoon holds 20ml.

Dough consistency

When using a new recipe or a different batch of flour or if a recipe has not produced a satisfactory result, check the consistency of the dough, part way through the initial kneading cycle (about 10 minutes after the machine has started). Lift the lid and have a quick look. The dough should be smooth, soft and slightly sticky and have a tendency to flatten and catch the sides of the container. Dough which is too stiff will have ragged edges; it will not stick to the sides at all and forms a tight round ball. In this case add one tablespoon of extra water. Dough which is too soft will be sticky and be reluctant to form a ball. Add one tablespoon of extra flour.
