100mg dose. The tablet must be
crushed between 2 spoons to
create a powder. If using powder,
refer to the packet instructions, but
a 1/4 of a teaspoon is usually
recommended.
Measuring
Ingredients
The key and most important step
when using your breadmaker is
measuring your ingredients
precisely and accurately. It is
extremely important to measure
each liquid and dry ingredient
properly or it could result in a poor
or unacceptable baking result. The
ingredients must also be added
into the baking pan in the order in
which they are given in each
recipe. Liquid and dry
measurements are done somewhat
differently and are as follows:
Liquid measurements
Use the cup provided
A. When
reading amounts, the measuring
cup must be placed on a horizontal
flat surface and viewed at eye level
(not on an angle). The liquid level
line must be aligned to the mark of
measurement. A ‘guesstimate’ is
not good enough as it could throw
out the critical balance of the
recipe.
Dry measurements
Dry measurements (especially
flours) must be done using the
measuring cup provided. The
measuring cup is based on the
American standard 8 fluid oz cup -
British cup is 10 fluid oz.
A
Dry measuring must be done by
gently spooning the ingredients
into the measuring cup and then
once filled, levelling off with a knife.
Scooping or tapping a measuring
cup will pack the ingredients and
you will end up with more than is
required. This extra amount could
affect the balance of the recipe. Do
not sift the flour, unless stated.
When measuring small amounts of
dry or liquid ingredients (ie yeast,
sugar, salt, powdered milk, honey,
molasses), the measuring spoon
which is provided must be used.
Measurements must be level, not
heaped, as this small difference
could throw out the critical balance
of the recipe.
DO NOT USE NORMAL KITCHEN
TEASPOONS OR
TABLESPOONS.
Hints on measuring ingredients
• The cup is marked in various
‘volume measurement’ scales. The
recipes in this book use the ‘cup’
volume which is based on the
‘American’ cup of 8floz and is
conveniently marked in 1/16
divisions.
• If you prefer to use weight (gms) as
a measurement, fill and weigh the
required number of cups and
record this conversion. ie: 2 cups =
xx gms 3 cups = xxx gms
You must use a good quality set of
accurate scales, we prefer to use
the ‘cup’ measure for consistency
and accuracy.
A conversion table is provided on
page 18.
• There are 2 spoons provided to
cover all combinations of quantities
in the recipes
B
:
Tablespoon (tbsp) and teaspoon
(tsp).
For 1/2 teaspoon measurements,
use the 1/4 tsp twice.
1 tsp = 5 millilitres
1 tbsp = 3 tsp = 15 millilitres
Hint: measure dry ingredients first
with the tablespoon, then wet (oil)
last.
Your breadmaker produces
delicious baked goods with ease.
This machine requires only that you
carefully follow the recipe
instructions. In basic cooking,
normally ‘a pinch of this and a
dash of that’ is fine, but not for
breadmakers. Using an automatic
breadmaker requires you accurately
measure each ingredient for best
results.
Ingredient
temperatures
All ingredients, including the
machine and pan, and especially
liquids (water or milk), should be
warmed to room temperature
21°C (70°F).
If ingredients are too cold, below
10°C (50°F), they will not activate
the yeast. Extremely hot liquids,
above 40°C (104°F), may kill the
yeast.
Creating your own
yeast breads
With the breadmaker, even the
most inexperienced baker can
achieve the satisfying experience of
baking a loaf of bread. All of the
mystery and hard work is gone.
Inside this talented machine with
an electronic brain, the dough is
mixed, kneaded, proofed and
baked without you being present.
The automatic breadmaker can
also just prepare the dough, and
when it's ready, you shape, allow to
rise and bake in a conventional
oven. The recipes on the following
pages are ‘tailored’ for this
breadmaker. Each recipe features
ingredients that best compliment a
particular loaf of bread, and each
was tested in our machines. It is
extremely important not to exceed
the amounts of flour specified in
each of the recipes or else it could
result in unsatisfactory baking
performance. When creating your
own yeast bread recipes or baking
an old favourite, use the recipes in
this cookbook as a guide for
converting portions from your
recipe to your breadmaker.
