V. USE
GENERAL: The final result depends on several factors.
temperature and always respect the prescribed quantities.
1. Ingredients
Flour: Flour is the main ingredient of bread and releases gluten, which allow the bread to rise and which gives
substance to the bread. Always check the packaging to see if the flour is suited for baking bread. The flour weight
varies much from type to type. So it is extremely important to weigh the correct amount on a scale.
Yeast: Yeast allows the dough to rise and makes the bread light and easy to digest. We advise to use dry yeast
(ready-to-use) as this type keeps much longer and gives a better and more constant result than fresh yeast.
Salt: Salt enriches the flour and reinforces the gluten in the flour for a better rising process.
Butter/oil: Butter/oil improves the taste of the bread and makes it softer. This ingredient should be at room
temperature.
Sugar: Sugar is the nutrition of the yeast and so essential for the rising process. You can use refined sugar or brown
sugar, but also honey or syrup. Sugar softens the taste of the bread, enhances the nutritional value and helps the
bread to keep longer.
Water: We advise to use tap water. Make sure that it is not too cold, otherwise the yeasting process will not start.
Make sure that it is not too warm, otherwise the yeasting process will go too fast. (= only advised if you select the
'quick' program).
Milk: Milk and other dairy products enhance the taste, the nutritional value and produce a nice brown crust. The
quantity of milk used should be deducted from the amount of water mentioned in the recipe. TIP: Do not use milk
or other dairy products if you use the 'timer delayed start'. The dairy products could go bad.
Make sure that the ingredients are fresh, at room
