The Home Bakery allows you to choose from eight different settings, depending on the type of recipe you're using. Settings for Yeast Breads include: · Basic White Bread For any ordinary yeast bread recipe; this is the setting you'll use most often. It takes about 3 hours and 50 minutes from start to finish. See page 10 for step-by-step instructions, or page 9 for our "Quick Start" white bread. · Quick Baking When you're in hurry, this setting allows you to have yeast breads in about 2 hours and 50 minutes, or about an hour faster than the "Basic White Bread" setting. This setting is perfect for when you're using the "fast-rise" yeast. It allows for shortened kneading and rising times in the cycle. See page 10 for stepby-step instructions. · Raisin Bread This setting is not just for raisin bread, but for any yeast bread that calls for extra ingredients such as raisins, nuts, onions, or shredded cheese that must be added after the initial mixing and kneading, Ten beeps will sound after about 30 to 45 minutes into the cycle; an indication that you can sagely lift the lid and add additional ingredients. Be sure to close the lid again until the baking is complete. Cycle takes 3 hours and 50 minutes. see page 10 for step-by-step instructions. Extra ingredients may be added before beeps sound while machine is operating in "Knead 2" stage. · French Bread For less rich doughs like French bread dough that call for less kneading and more rising time, use this setting. The cycle takes longest of all, about 4 hours and 30 minutes. See page 11 for step-by-step instructions. · Dough Setting When you're preparing doughs that call for shaping and conventional baking in other types of bread pans, choose this cycle. It will mix and knead dough, as well as allow one rising before the machine beeps "comple ...
