IF
THE DOUGHBALL Is Too WET
During the second kneading cycle, check the
consistency of the
doughball.
If
the doughball
appears sticky or wet, like pancake- batter,
sprinkle in flour, a tablespoon at a time, until the doughball appears
smooth, round and dry, and circles
nicely
in the pan. Sprinkle a lit-
tle more flour if needed.
If THE DOUGHBALL
IS
Too DRY
3
If the
doughball appears
flaky, or you hear
your breadmaker begin to make "knocking"
sounds, the dough ball is too dry.
To
correct
a
this problem, simply sprinkle in water a
teaspoon at
a time,
until the doughbal appears smooth, round and dry, and
circles nicely in the pan. Be careful not to add too much water.
FOR
BAKING
AT
HIGH
ALTITUDES
If you
live above
3000 feet
(1000 m),
you
probably already know
how
to adjust
other recipes
like
cakes
and muffins.
Higher altitudes tend
to:
l make dough rise faster
l make flour drier
To compensate for high altitude baking, we recommend the follow-
ing:
IF THE
DOUGH IS
Too D
RY
l
increase the
amount of water to the recipe,
sometimes
as much
as 2-4 Tbsp. per
cup.
IF THE BREAD
RISES TOO
HIGH
l reduce
the amount
of yeast:
For each teaspoon of
yeast,
try reducing the yeast by
1/8
to
1/4
teaspoon.
l
reduce the amount of sugar: For each tablespoon of sugar,
reduce the amount by 1 to 2 teaspoons
