Hints and Tips
Important
• Never exceed the maximum capacities and speeds stated – you may overload the
machine.
• If you hear the machine labouring, switch off, remove half the dough and do each half
separately.
• The ingredients mix best if you put the liquid in first.
Yeast
• Dried Yeast (the type that needs reconstituting): pour the warm water into the bowl.
Then add the yeast and sugar and leave to stand for 10 minutes until frothy.
• Fresh yeast: crumble into the flour
• Other types of yeast: follow the manufacturer's instructions.
