a finger hole in the power plug for easy  
and safe removal from the wall outlet. For  
safety reasons it is recommended you  
Do not place this appliance on or near  
a hot source, such as hot plate, oven  
or heaters.  
plug your Breville appliance directly into  
its own electrical outlet on a dedicated  
circuit separate from other appliances. If  
the electric circuit is overloaded with other  
appliances, your appliance may not function  
properly. Use in conjunction with a power  
strip or extension cord is not recommended.  
Position the appliance at a minimum  
distance of 10 inches away from walls,  
curtains and other heat or steam  
sensitive materials and provide adequate  
space above and on all sides for  
air circulation.  
This appliance has a polarized plug (one  
blade is wider than the other). To reduce  
the risk of electric shock, this plug will  
fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If  
the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,  
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,  
contact a qualified electrician. Do not  
modify the plug in any way.  
It is a safety precaution to prevent  
personal injury or property damage  
resulting from pulling, tripping or  
becoming entangled with a longer  
cord. Do not allow children to use or  
be near this appliance without close  
adult supervision. Longer detachable  
power strips or extension cords are not  
recommended but may be used if care is  
exercised. If an extension cord is used,  
(1) the marked electrical rating of the  
cord set or extension cord should be at  
least as great as the electrical rating of  
the appliance, (2) the cord should be  
arranged so that it will not drape over  
the counter-top or tabletop where it can  
be pulled on by children or tripped  
over unintentionally.

Care should be taken when weighing and  
measuring ingredients to achieve accuracy  
and consistency. Recipes in this instruction  
book have been developed using Imperial  
and Metric weights and measurements.

METRIC WEIGhING SCALES  
For consistent results it is recommended  
that a metric kitchen scale be used to weigh  
as they provide greater accuracy than  
measuring cups.  
Tare (zero) the scales with the container  
in the position then spoon or pour the  
ingredients in until the desired weight  
is achieved.  
MEASURING CUPS  
ANd SPOONS  
If using graduated measuring cups, it is  
important to spoon the dry ingredients  
loosely into the required cup. Do not tap  
the cup on the counter-top or pack the  
ingredients into the cup unless otherwise  
directed. Level the top of the cup with a  
knife. When using graduated measuring  
spoons, level the top of the spoon with a  
straight edged knife or spatula.  
METRIC LIqUId MEASURING CUPS  
If using a graduated, measuring cup, place  
cup on a flat surface and check for accuracy  
at eye level.

hINTS ANd TIPS  
When hand-shaping dough for rolls,  
weigh each piece of dough for more  
evenly sized rolls.  
fOR BETTER BREAd MAKING  
Do check the ingredients and read the  
recipe before starting to bake.  
Do measure ingredients accurately –  
weight measurements are more accurate  
than volume measurements.  
SPONGING yEAST  
Instant active dried yeast is used in the  
recipes in this book however fresh or  
compressed yeast can be substituted.  
Do use bread flours unless the recipe  
states otherwise.  
Fresh or compressed yeast needs to be  
‘sponged’ (fermentation started) before  
adding to the other ingredients.  
Do check used-by-dates on ingredients.  
Do add ingredients in the order stated in  
the recipe.  
To substitute, use double the amount  
of fresh or compressed yeast for the  
amount of dry yeast in a recipe.  
Do store open ingredients in  
airtight containers.  
Do use ingredients at room temperature.  
To sponge the yeast: Place the quantity  
of fresh compressed yeast in the

level of less than 11%.  
quantity of water (warmed) from the  
recipe together with 1 teaspoon sugar  
into a clean glass bowl, stir to dissolve  
and cover with plastic wrap. Allow  
to stand in a warm area around 85°F  
(30°C) for about 30 minutes or until the  
mixture starts to bubble and froth. This  
mixture should be used without delay.  
Don’t use tableware cups, glasses or  
spoons for measuring.  
Don’t use hot water or liquids.  
Don’t use self-rising flour to make  
yeasted bread unless the recipe  
states otherwise.  
If you live in a high altitude area above  
2500 ft. you will probably need to alter  
the yeast quantities in the bread recipe.  
The higher the altitude, the lower the air  
pressure and the faster the dough will  
rise. Try reducing the yeast by  
WARM AREA fOR RISING  
Yeast, either when sponging or in the  
dough, requires warmth to rise.  
To create a ‘warm area’ for dough to rise,  
place prepared dough item in a stainless  
steel mixing bowl and cover with plastic  
wrap or a tea towel and place on top of

¼ teaspoon.  
If the weather is hot and humid, reduce  
the yeast by ¼ teaspoon to avoid over  
rising of the dough.  
Flour properties can alter on a seasonal  
or storage basis, so it may be necessary  
to adjust the water and flour ratio. If  
the dough is too sticky, add extra flour  
1 tablespoon at a time; if the dough is  
too dry add extra water 1 teaspoon at a  
time. A few minutes is needed for extra  
ingredients to be absorbed. Dough with  
the correct amount of flour and water  
should foam into a smooth round ball  
that is damp to the touch but not sticky.

hINTS ANd TIPS  
Eggs should be at room temperature to  
give better volume when whipping.  
fOR BETTER BAKING  
Check the ingredients and read the  
recipe before starting to bake.  
Break eggs individually into another  
container before adding to other  
ingredients to avoid potential spoilage.  
Weigh and measure ingredients  
correctly.  
Separate egg whites carefully to avoid  
inclusion of egg yolks. Egg yolks contain  
fat and will prevent successful whipping  
of egg whites.  
Variations may occur in raw ingredients  
use so adjust other ingredients and  
baking times if required.  
Preheat oven before starting recipe  
preparation, this will ensure the correct  
temperature is achieved before  
baking starts.  
Rinse beaten egg residue from beater  
and mixing bowl or other utensils with  
cold water immediately after use. Using  
hot water will set the egg and make  
removal difficult.  
Temperature and cooking times  
may vary with some ovens so  
Test if cakes are cooked at the end of  
baking time by touching the top lightly,  
the cake will spring back if cooked. A  
wooden skewer or toothpick can also be  
inserted carefully into the center of the  
cake, if it comes out clean the cake  
is cooked.  
adjust accordingly. If using a fan  
forced (convection) oven reduce the  
temperatures in the recipes by 15-20°.  
When mixing, start the mixer at a  
lower speed then gradually increase to  
the recommended speed in the recipe  
especially when adding dry ingredients.  
For crisper results when baking cookies,  
remove the baking trays from the oven  
and placed directly onto wire racks.  
Move the cookies slightly away from  
their baked position on the trays and  
cool completely before removing.  
When using smaller quantities turn off  
the mixer from time to time and scrape  
the bowl with a spatula.  
Ensure beaters and mixing bowl are  
clean and free of fats when whipping  
egg whites as these will impede aeration.  
Spray baking sheets and cake pans with  
an oil spray and line with parchment  
paper; this will make removing your  
food easier.  
Butter should be softened at room  
temperature to make creaming butter  
and sugar easier.  
Keep surfaces and ingredients chilled  
when making, handling or rolling out  
pastry. Butter for pastry making should  
be kept refrigerated.  
Avoid stretching pastry when rolling  
out as it will shrink when baking. Use  
light, even strokes in one direction and  
avoid pressing down hard on the rolling  
pin. Where possible, rest pastry in the  
refrigerator before baking.

fOR CAKE ANd PASTRy MAKING  
fATS IN BAKING  
Flour, such as cake, pastry, all purpose, self  
rising and whole wheat, used for cake and  
pastry making should be lower in protein  
(gluten) than flour used for bread making.  
Butter will give particular flavor and soft  
texture to baked products. When using  
butter in baking recipes it is best to use  
unsalted butter as salted butters vary in  
their salt content and may change the  
consistency and taste of your baked good.  
Cake and Pastry flour have a lower protein  
(gluten) content and give baked products,  
such as cakes, muffins, pastries, scones and  
pancakes, a softer texture.  
Margarine can replace butter to give a  
similar result.  
All-purpose flour is often used as a general  
purpose flour however is not recommended  
for bread making.  
Oil can be used in some baking to replace  
butter but will give texture and  
flavour differences.  
Self–rising flour is a blend of all purpose  
flour and raising agents such as baking  
powder. Self rising flour can be used in  
recipes to replace all-purpose flour and  
baking powder. To make 1 cup self-rising  
flour sift together 1 cup all-purpose flour and  
2 teaspoons baking powder (Care should  
be taken when using self rising flour as a  
substitute in recipes as not all recipes have  
the same proportions of baking powder and  
baking powder loses it's leavening (rising)  
power over time.).  
Eggs should be at room temperature to  
give better volume when making cakes and  
sponges. Standard large eggs were used in  
the recipes.  
Milk should be full fat unless specified.  
Light, low fat or skim milk can be used but  
will give texture and flavor differences.  
Sugar (granulated sugar) is used to give  
flavor, texture and color to baked products.  
Bakers sugar is often used in baking as it is  
easier to dissolve when creaming butter and  
sugar. Brown sugar is also easy to dissolve  
and can be used to give a different flavor  
and texture. The large crystals of raw sugar  
are slower to dissolve and can be suitable for  
baked products such as muffins.  
Whole wheat flour contains more parts  
of the whole wheat grain — flour, bran and  
wheat germ — and can be used in muffins,  
breads and pie dough but will have a  
denser texture.  
Corn flour is made from maize (corn) and is  
used in some baked products to give a finer  
texture and can also be used as a starch to  
thicken sauces and desserts.  
Rice flour is derived from rice and is used to  
give a finer texture in baked products such  
as shortbread cookies.  
Baking powder is a mixture of cream of  
tartar and baking soda and is used as a  
leavening agent in baking.  
Baking soda is used as a leavening agent in  
baked goods. When using baking soda in a  
recipe the product must be baked at once  
and not stored for later or the leavening  
power will be lost and the product may  
not rise.

ISSUE  
TIP  
Choice of beaters  
Do not use a dough hook with a beater - this will damage  
the Mixer.  
Speed Settings  
Use the mixing guide above to select a suitable mixing speed  
when preparing recipes. Begin mixing at lowest speed then  
increase to higher speed to prevent splattering.  
Bowl Speed  
Mixing  
Use the low bowl speed for speeds 1-6 and the high bowl speed  
for speeds 6-12.  
Mix for the recommended time in the recipe - avoid over  
mixing.  
Should an object such as a spoon or spatula fall into the bowl  
while mixing immediately turn the mixer off, unplug at the  
power outlet and remove the object.  
Egg white  
Be sure the beaters and bowl are completely clean and dry  
before use - a small amount of fat and egg yolk will affect  
whipping performance.  
Bread dough  
Add liquid ingredients to the dry ingredients. Use speed 1 to  
knead ingredients into a dough ball. DO NOT place hands near  
dough hook when mixer is operating.
