Question

Answer

Why did my dough/

bread not rise well?

There are a number of factors that could result in a short rise. Be sure that the

yeast is fresh and that all ingredients are at room temperature (75ºF to 90°F). If the

liquids are too warm or too cold, they will not activate the yeast properly. Be sure

the ingredients are put into the baking pan in the correct order. The salt should be

as far away from the yeast as possible. Note that not all breads rise as much as

others. Whole-wheat or whole-grain breads tend to be shorter than white breads.

Also, breads with more sugar or sweeteners, and ones that are enriched with

eggs, will be taller than regular white breads.

Why is my bread

sunken/uneven on

the top?

Humidity and room temperature can greatly affect the results of baked yeast

breads. Keep the bread maker away from direct sunlight. If the humidity is

especially high, add an additional teaspoon per cup of flour used in the recipe.

Why does my

yeast bread have

an under-baked/

gummy texture?

The dough was too wet, or possibly does not have enough white flour (for gluten

development). Add a bit more flour, 1 tablespoon per cup, or reduce the amount of

whole-wheat/grain flours in the recipe and substitute white flour.

Why does the

interior of my yeast

bread have

excessive holes?

This would happen if either the bread is too wet or if too much yeast was used.

Double-check the recipe and, if necessary, make changes by either adding a small

amount of flour or reducing the yeast slightly.

Why is my yeast

bread heavy and

dense?

This could be one of a few different issues. The mixture may be too dry as a result

of not enough liquid or because lower fat substitutes were used. Another reason

may be not using enough yeast. If this is occurring in whole-wheat/grain bread,

you may need to use vital wheat gluten to help with the structure of the finished

bread.

Why are the

corners/edges

of the bread full

of extra flour/not

evenly mixed?

Sometimes ingredients will stick to the corners of the pan, most commonly in the

cake/quick bread or gluten-free bread (both have more batter-like consistencies

than a dough). Check the bread about 10 minutes into the kneading/mixing

time and pause to scrape down if necessary. Lightly coating the bread pan with

nonstick cooking spray will help to prevent this from happening as well.

How do I get the

kneading paddle

out of the loaf?

There are two options. In most programs you can remove the paddle after you

hear the Remove Paddle signal (prior to the final rise). If this is not an option, or

you were not present to remove it, wait until the bread is cooled and then, with the

help of the paddle removal hook, carefully take out the paddle.

Why is the unit

smoking/producing

a burning smell?

Most likely this is from ingredients that fell into the bottom of the bread machine

or onto the heating element. If it is excessive, unplug the unit and once cool, clean

the interior of the unit. Plug the unit back in and resume the program (the pro-

gram will be stored in memory for a maximum of 15 minutes). In most cases, the

smoke/odor will be minimal and it will dissipate.

What do the error

codes mean?

The display shows “HHH” (accompanied by beeps)

The unit’s internal

temperature is too high. This usually occurs when trying to make two

successive loaves. Open the lid and allow the unit to cool 10-20 minutes.

The display shows “LLL” (accompanied by beeps)

The unit’s internal

temperature is too low to bake bread.

The display shows “EEO” (accompanied

by beeps)

Unplug the unit and contact your nearby service center.
