IF THE DOUGHBALL Is Too WET

During the second kneading cycle, check the consistency of the doughball. If the doughball appears sticky or wet, like pancake- batter,

sprinkle in flour, a tablespoon at a time, until the doughball appears smooth, round and dry, and circles nicely in the pan. Sprinkle a lit- tle more flour if needed.

Higher altitudes tend to:

 

 

make dough rise faster make flour drier

To compensate for high altitude baking, we recommend the follow- ing:

IF THE DOUGH IS Too DRY

increase the amount of water to the recipe, sometimes as much as 2-4 Tbsp. per cup.

IF THE BREAD RISES TOO HIGH

reduce the amount of yeast: For each teaspoon of yeast, try reducing the yeast by 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon.

reduce the amount of sugar: For each tablespoon of sugar, reduce the amount by 1 to 2 teaspoons
