With this program, the time for fermenting is shorter. When you add more ingredients,
this will also effect the baking time and the result will be disappointing.
4. WHEN MAKING HEAVIER TYPES OF BREAD, THE APPLIANCE SEEMS TO
KNEAD SLOWER.
This is perfectly normal and does in no way damage your bread maker. We do
however advise you to add a tablespoonful of liquid, when baking heavier bread.
BEFORE TAKING YOUR APPLIANCE BACK TO THE STORE
YOUR BREAD KEEPS TURNING OUT BAD
We recommend that you try and bake one bread on the basis of a ready-made bread
mix. These types of mixtures only require that you add some water and butter. If that
works and the result is to your liking, this means there is nothing wrong with your
bread maker. Please check the freshness of the ingredients used.
THE APPLIANCE DOESN’T WORK
Is your bread maker activated and have you plugged it in properly? The temperature
may be too high.
SOMETIMES SMOKE COMES OUT OF THE HOLES
Perhaps you spilled some of the ingredients on the heating element.
THE BREAD HAS CAVED IN / THE CENTRE OF THE BREAD IS TOO
MOIST
You have left the bread in the bread pan for too long after the baking was fi nished. Or
you have used too much water or too much yeast.
THE TOP OF THE BREAD IS CRACKED AND HAS A BROWNISH COLOUR
You used too much fl our, yeast or sugar.
THE TOP LAYER OF THE BREAD IS STILL COVERED WITH FLOUR
You didn’t use enough water.
MY BREAD IS TOO SMALL.
You didn’t use enough fl our, yeast, sugar or water.
You used wholemeal fl our or a type of fl our containing chemical yeast.
You used the wrong type of yeast.
You used fl our or yeast that had already gone bad.
YOUR BREAD IS NOT SUFFICIENTLY BAKED
You accidentally pressed the “stop” button after activating the bread maker.
You left the lid open during the baking process.
