PARTS AND FEATURES
EXTRA BAKE- You can manualiy adjust the amount of time for any baking by using the
plus and minus buttons to change the time in 10 minute increments. This must be done
at the beginning, before the programmed baking begins,
FAST BAKE - The Fast Bake cycle goes through kneading, rising and baking in
approximately an hour. Mix-ins must be added at the very beginning of the cycle
with other basic ingredients. This cycle comes in handy when you cannot plan ahead
for bread making. The kneading and rising of this cycle is suitable for white bread
recipes. Bring all ingredients to room temp and liquids to 100 ‘^F, The texture and rise
of the bread is greatly improved by adding vital wheat gluten to the mixture - in a pinch
it can be left out, but keep it on hand for Fast Bake Loaves.
KEEP WARM FUNCTION - After the bread has baked, the Bread Maker will go into a
Keep Warm mode to keep the bread warm and to ensure that the crust does not
become too soft. Also, items baked using the Fast Bake setting benefit from this step.
This function lasts for up to 60 minutes.
