Milk can be used directly from the refrigerator as it will be gently warmed during the PREHEAT period before kneading begins.
If you wish to warm the milk, you can, but do not heat above 80º F.
If cold butter or margarine is used, cut into four (4) pieces, placing in bottom of pan with liquid for faster blending.
If bread maker labors during the kneading period, the dough is too dry. Add one (1) tablespoon warm water at a time until the
dough softens. Do not add too much extra water as this can cause the bread to collapse or be under baked. The bread dough
should be soft and a bit sticky to the touch after kneading.
Make sure to remove the dough from pan after completion of cycle. An audible alert will sound and the machine will
automatically turn off when the dough cycle is complete. If the dough is left inside the machine, it will continue to rise and could
over-rise if left inside long enough, possibly flowing into the oven chamber.
Most of your favorite yeast dough recipes can be prepared in your bread maker at the dough setting; however, do not exceed four
(4) cups of flour as the dough may not be kneaded properly. Some minor adjustment may be needed during the knead period for
proper condition of the dough. See “SPECIAL NOTES ON FLOUR” section for details on making minor adjustments to the dough
during the kneading period on page 5.
Dough can be refrigerated up to three (3) to four (4) days for later use if desired. Simply remove dough from pan and place into
an oiled bowl, turn dough over to oil top and cover tightly. Or, put dough into an oiled plastic bag and seal. Check dough daily and
punch down if needed. When ready to use, shape, rise and bake as recipe directs.
To freeze dough, shape as recipe directs and wrap tightly. Dough can be frozen for up to one month. When ready to use, remove
from freezer and thaw in refrigerator or at room temperature. Keep covered to prevent the dough from drying out. Once thawed,
allow dough to rise until doubled in size, then bake as directed.
