fresh products and visa-versa?
Can butter or margarine be used in place of
oil?
Can other sweetening agents be used in place
of sugar?

EASY SOLUTION
Results may vary when using other recipes as the recipes in this booklet are sized so that the dough is kneaded properly and the finished bread
does not exceed the bread pan capacity. Use only recipes with similar quantities of ingredients.
As a general guide, a minimum 300g and maximum 750g of total dry ingredients is recommended on the bread settings. On the jam setting, as a
general guide, a maximum 500g of fruit should be used.
Yes, egg powders, dried buttermilk or dry milk can be used. These products allow you to use the Delay Start feature, however always ensure to
add the water to the bread pan first, then add the dried substitution after the flour to keep them separate.
Similarly, fresh milk and eggs can be substituted for dry milk and egg powders, but the baked bread will have a heavier texture. If you still choose
to use fresh milk, ensure to decrease the same measurement of liquid to equal the fresh milk and omit the milk powder. Do not use the Delay Start
feature with perishable ingredients.
Yes, but the bread crumb may appear a more creamy, yellow colour.
Yes, honey, golden syrup or brown sugar can be used. When substituting honey or similar sweet liquids for sugar, ensure to decrease the same
measurement of liquid to equal the liquid sugar substitute. We do not recommend powdered or liquid artificial sweeteners.
Salt plays a very important part in bread making. Omitting it will decrease water retention in the dough, as well as affect mixing, the strength of the
gluten development and the fermentation of the yeast. In the finished bread, salt improves the loaf shape, crumb structure and crust colour, as
well as extending shelf life and enhancing flavour.
Depending on the coarseness of the flour, results may not be satisfactory. For best results, we recommend using a blend of bread flour and home-
milled flour. Ensure not to grind the flour too coarse as it may damage the bread pan coating.
To ensure all dry ingredients are mixed with the water and to avoid the yeast activating prematurely with the water, salt or sugar when using the
Delay Start feature.
