The eco bake setting can be used and is recommended for most ready prepared bread mixes.  
(Wholemeal and Granary bread mixes generally work best on Program 3 Wholewheat).  
G
Check that the total weight of the mix does not exceed the maximum amount your bread  
maker can handle.  
G
Add the amount of water recommended by the manufacturer to the bread pan first, then add  
the bread mix.  
G
For best results use lukewarm water (30-35°C) and measure the water temperature with either  
a thermometer or mix 25% boiling water with 75% of cold water.  
G
If the loaf does not rise sufficiently try adding 1-2tsp of easy blend dried yeast next time.  
G
The timer delay is not recommended for packet mixes as you cannot separate the yeast from  
the liquid.

granary bread flour  
ingredients  
The major ingredient in bread making is flour, so selecting  
the right one is the key to a successful loaf.  
A combination of white, wholemeal and rye flours mixed  
with malted whole wheat grains, which adds both texture  
and flavour. Use on its own or in combination with strong  
white flour.  
wheat flours  
Wheat flours make the best loaves. Wheat consists of an  
outer husk, often referred to as bran, and an inner kernel,  
which contains the wheat germ and endosperm. It is the  
protein within the endosperm which, when mixed with  
water, forms gluten. Gluten stretches like elastic and the  
gases given off by the yeast during fermentation are  
trapped, making the dough rise.  
non-wheat flours  
Other flours such as rye can be used with white and  
wholemeal bread flours to make traditional breads like  
pumpernickel or rye bread. Adding even a small amount  
adds a distinctive tang. Do not use on its own, as it will  
produce a sticky dough, which will produce a dense  
heavy loaf. Other grains such as millet, barley, buckwheat,  
cornmeal and oatmeal are low in protein and therefore do  
not develop sufficient gluten to produce a traditional loaf.  
white flours  
These flours have the outer bran and wheat germ  
removed, leaving the endosperm which is milled into a  
white flour. It is essential to use strong white flour or white  
bread flour, because this has a higher protein level,  
necessary for gluten development. Do not use plain white  
flour or self-raising flour for making yeast risen breads in  
your bread maker, as inferior loaves will be produced.  
There are several brands of white bread flour available,  
use a good quality one, preferably unbleached, for the  
best results.  
These flours can be used successfully in small quantities.  
Try replacing 10-20% of white bread flour with any of  
these alternatives.  
salt  
A small quantity of salt is essential in bread making for  
dough development and flavour. Use fine table salt or sea  
salt, not coarsely ground salt which is best kept for  
sprinkling on top of hand-shaped rolls, to give a crunchy  
texture. Low-salt substitutes are best avoided as most do  
not contain sodium.  
wholemeal flours  
Wholemeal flours include the bran and wheat germ, which  
gives the flour a nutty flavour and produces a coarser  
textured bread. Again strong wholemeal or wholemeal  
bread flour must be used. Loaves made with 100%  
wholemeal flour will be more dense than white loaves. The  
bran present in the flour inhibits the release of gluten, so  
wholemeal doughs rise more slowly. Use the special  
wholewheat programs to allow time for the bread to rise.  
For a lighter loaf, replace part of the wholemeal flour with  
white bread flour.  
G
Salt strengthens the gluten structure and makes the  
dough more elastic.  
Salt inhibits yeast growth to prevent over-rising and  
stops the dough collapsing.  
G
G
Too much salt will prevent the dough rising sufficiently.  
sweeteners  
Use white or brown sugars, honey, malt extract, golden  
syrup, maple syrup, molasses or treacle.  
G
Sugar and liquid sweeteners contribute to the colour of  
bread, helping to add a golden finish to the crust.  
Sugar attracts moisture, so improving the keeping  
strong brown flour  
G
This can be used in combination with white flour, or on its  
own. It contains about 80-90% of the wheat kernel and  
so it produces a lighter loaf, which is still full of flavour. Try  
using this flour on the basic white cycle, replacing 50% of  
the strong white flour with strong brown flour. You may  
need to add a little extra liquid.  
qualities.  
G
Sugar provides food for the yeast, although not  
essential, as modern types of dried yeast are able to  
feed on the natural sugars and starches found in the  
flour, it will make the dough more active.  
G
Sweet breads have a moderate level of sugar with the  
fruit, glaze or icing adding extra sweetness. Use the  
sweet bread cycle for these breads.  
G
If substituting a liquid sweetener for sugar then the total  
liquid content of the recipe will need to be reduced  
slightly.

fats and oils  
If you wish to use fresh yeast note the following:  
6g fresh yeast = 1tsp dried yeast  
A small amount of fat or oil is often added to bread to  
give a softer crumb. It also helps to extend the freshness  
of the loaf. Use butter, margarine or even lard in small  
quantities up to 25 g (1 oz) or 22ml (11⁄2 tbsp.) vegetable  
oil. Where a recipe uses larger amounts so the flavour is  
more noticeable, butter will provide the best result.  
Mix the fresh yeast with 1tsp sugar and 2tbsp of the  
water (warm). Leave for 5 minutes until frothy.  
Then add to the rest of the ingredients in the pan.  
To get the best results the yeast quantity may need to  
be adjusted.  
G
G
Use the amounts stated in the recipes; too much could  
cause the bread to over-rise and spill over the top of  
the bread pan.  
Once a sachet of yeast is opened, it should be used  
within 48 hours, unless stated otherwise by the  
manufacturer. Re-seal after use. Resealed opened  
sachets can be stored in the freezer until required.  
Use dried yeast before its use by date, as the potency  
gradually deteriorates with time.  
You may find dried yeast, which has been  
manufactured especially for use in bread machines.  
This will also produce good results, though you may  
need to adjust the quantities recommended.  
G
Olive oil or sunflower oil can be used instead of butter,  
adjust the liquid content for amounts over 15ml (3 tsp)  
accordingly. Sunflower oil is a good alternative if you  
are concerned about the cholesterol level.  
Do not use low fat spreads as they contain up to 40%  
water so do not have the same properties as butter.  
G
liquid  
G
G
Some form of liquid is essential; usually water or milk is  
used. Water produces a crisper crust than milk. Water is  
often combined with skimmed milk powder. This is  
essential if using the time delay as fresh milk will  
deteriorate. For most programs water straight from the  
tap is fine, however on the eco program it needs to be  
lukewarm.  
G
On very cold days measure the water and leave to  
stand at room temperature for 30 minutes before use. If  
using milk straight from the fridge do likewise.  
G
Buttermilk, yoghurt, soured cream and soft cheeses  
such as ricotta, cottage and fromage frais can all be  
used as part of the liquid content to produce a more  
moist, tender crumb. Buttermilk adds a pleasant,  
slightly sour note, not unlike that found in country style  
breads and sour doughs.  
G
Eggs may be added to enrich the dough, improve the  
colour of the bread and help to add structure and  
stability to the gluten during rising. If using eggs reduce  
the liquid content accordingly. Place the egg in a  
measuring cup and top up with liquid to the correct  
level for the recipe.  
yeast  
Yeast is available both fresh and dried. All the recipes in  
this book have been tested using easy blend, fast action  
dried yeast which does not require dissolving in water  
first. It is placed in a well in the flour where it is kept dry  
and separate from the liquid until mixing commences.  
G
For best results use dried yeast. The use of fresh yeast  
is not recommended as tends to give more variable  
results than dried yeast. Do not use fresh yeast with  
the delay timer.

adapting your own recipes  
removing, slicing and storing bread  
G
After you have baked some of the recipes supplied you  
may wish to adapt a few of your own favourites, which  
previously have been mixed and kneaded by hand. Start  
by selecting one of the recipes in this booklet, which is  
similar to your recipe, and use it as a guide.  
For best results, once your loaf is baked, remove it  
from the machine and turn out of the bread pan  
immediately, although your bread maker will keep it  
warm for up to 1 hour if you are not around.  
G
Remove the bread pan from the machine using oven  
gloves, even if it is during the keep warm cycle. Turn  
the pan upside-down and shake several times to  
release the cooked bread. If the bread is difficult to  
remove, try gently knocking the corner of the bread  
pan on a wooden board, or rotate the base of the shaft  
underneath the bread pan.  
Read through the following guidelines to help you, and be  
prepared to make adjustments as you go along.  
G
Make sure you use the correct quantities for the bread  
maker. Do not exceed the recommended maximum. If  
necessary, reduce the recipe to match the flour and  
liquid quantities in the bread maker recipes.  
G
The kneader should remain inside the bread pan when

Always add the liquid to the bread pan first. Separate  
the bread is released, however occasionally it may  
remain inside the loaf of bread. If so, remove it before  
slicing the bread, using a heat resistant plastic utensil  
to prise it out. Do not use a metal implement as this  
may scratch the non-stick coating on the kneader.  
Leave the bread to cool for at least 30 minutes on a  
wire rack, to allow the steam to escape. The bread will  
be difficult to slice if cut hot.  
the yeast from the liquid by adding after the flour.  
G
Replace fresh yeast with easy blend dried yeast. Note:  
6g fresh yeast = 1tsp (5ml) dried yeast.  
G
Use skimmed milk powder and water instead of fresh  
milk, if using the timer delay setting.  
G
G
If your conventional recipe uses egg, add the egg as  
part of the total liquid measurement.  
G
Keep the yeast separate from the other ingredients in  
storing  
the pan until mixing commences.  
Home-made bread does not contain any preservatives so  
should be eaten within 2-3 days of baking. If not eating  
immediately, wrap in foil or place in a plastic bag and seal.  
G
Check the consistency of the dough during the first few  
minutes of mixing. Bread machines require a slightly  
softer dough, so you may need to add extra liquid. The  
dough should be wet enough to gradually relax back.  
G
Crispy French-style bread will soften on storage, so is  
best left uncovered until sliced.  
G
If you wish to keep your bread for a few days, store in  
the freezer. Slice the bread before freezing, for easy  
removal of the amount required.

G
Vegetables such as grated carrot, courgette or cooked  
mashed potato can be added for flavour. You will need  
to reduce the liquid content of the recipe as these  
foods contain water. Start with less water and check  
the dough as it begins to mix and adjust if it is  
necessary.  
general hints and tips  
The results of your bread making are dependent on a  
number of different factors, such as the quality of  
ingredients, careful measuring, temperature and humidity.  
To help ensure successful results, there are a few hints  
and tips worth noting.  
G
G
Do not exceed the quantities given in recipes as you  
may damage your bread machine.  
The bread machine is not a sealed unit and will be  
affected by temperature. If it is a very hot day or the  
machine is used in a hot kitchen, then the bread is likely  
to rise more, than if it is cold. The optimum room  
temperature is between 20°C /68°F and 24°C/75°F.  
If the bread does not rise well try replacing the tap  
water with bottled water or boiled and cooled water. If  
your tap water is heavily chlorinated and fluorinated it  
may affect the bread rising. Hard water can also have  
this effect.  
G
On very cold days let the water from the tap stand at  
G
It is worth checking the dough after about 5 minutes of  
continuous kneading. Keep a flexible rubber spatula  
next to the machine, so you can scrape down the  
sides of the pan if some of the ingredients stick to the  
corners. Do not place near the kneader, or impede its  
movement. Also check the dough to see if it is the  
correct consistency. If the dough is crumbly or the  
machine seems to be labouring, add a little extra water.  
If the dough is sticking to the sides of the pan and  
doesn’t form a ball, add a little extra flour.  
room temperature for 30 minutes before use. Likewise  
with ingredients from the fridge.  
Use all ingredients at room temperature unless stated  
otherwise in the recipe eg. for the eco cycle you will  
need to warm the liquid.  
G
G
Add ingredients to the bread pan in the order  
suggested in the recipe. Keep the yeast dry and  
separate from any other liquids added to the pan, until  
mixing commences.  
G
Accurate measuring is probably the most crucial factor  
G
Do not open the lid during the proving or baking cycle  
as this may cause the bread to collapse.  
for a successful loaf. Most problems are due to  
inaccurate measuring or omitting an ingredient. Follow  
either metric or imperial measurements; they are not  
interchangeable. Use the measuring cup and spoon  
provided.  
G
Always use fresh ingredients, within their use by date.  
Perishable ingredients such as milk, cheese, vegetables  
and fresh fruits may deteriorate, especially in warm  
conditions. These should only be used in breads, which  
are made immediately.  
G
Do not add too much fat as it forms a barrier between  
the yeast and flour, slowing down the action of the  
yeast, which could result in a heavy compact loaf.  
G
Cut butter and other fats into small pieces before  
adding to the bread pan.  
G
Replace part of the water with fruit juices such as  
orange, apple or pineapple when making fruit flavoured  
breads.  
G
Vegetable cooking juices can be added as part of the  
liquid. Water from cooking potatoes contains starch,  
which is an additional source of food for the yeast, and  
helps to produce a well-risen, softer, longer lasting loaf.
