Basic Setting Recipes (Menu 1)
Basic bread machine stages (for 1.5 lb. loaves)
For the basic cycle, you can expect the following things to happen as the timer counts down to zero.
To begin: The ingredients are kneaded for the fi rst time (5 minutes)
At 3:13, the dough rests for 5 minutes
At 3:08, the dough is kneaded for the second time (20 minutes)
At 2:48, the dough begins to rise (39 minutes)
At 2:09, the dough is “punched down” (10 seconds)
At 2:09, the dough continues to rise (25 minutes and 50 seconds)
At 1:43, the dough is shaped (15 seconds)
At 1:43, the dough comes to the last period of rise (48 minutes and 45 seconds)
At 0:53, the dough begins to bake (53 minutes)
At 0:00, the bread is fi nished.
Note: Rapid Setting will reduce total time by about an hour.
