has a crispy crust. The baking mode is not suitable for baking recipes
requiring butter, margarine or milk.

General tips
-
Make sure that the ingredients are of good quality and at room temperature.
-
Place the appliance on a stable and flat surface.
-
If the baking compartment is still warm, allow it to cool down completely before use.
-
Put the ingredients into the bread pan in the required order:
– Put the liquid ingredients into the bread pan.
– Put a small amount of flour into the bread pan.
– Put the solid ingredients into the bread pan.
– Put the rest of the flour into the bread pan. Make sure that all solid ingredients are covered by the flour.
– Make a small indentation on one side of the flour. Pour the baking yeast or the baking powder into the indentation.
– Make sure that the baking yeast or the baking powder does not come into contact with salt or liquid ingredients. -
Preferably use bread-making flour. If you use heavy flour (wheat flour, rye flour, corn flour, etc.), the bread will rise less than if you use light flour. Use the correct amount of flour. If necessary, use a kitchen scale to measure the amount of flour.
-
Use the correct amount of baking yeast. Use dried active baking yeast instead of baking powder. If you use fresh yeast, use thrice more yeast than if you use dried yeast and solve the yeast in a small amount of lukewarm water. Make sure that the baking yeast does not come into contact with water, milk, salt, or sugar.
-
Use lukewarm water. If possible, use tap water. If you use eggs, break the eggs and add them to the water.
-
If you use milk, use fresh milk or milk powder. If you use milk powder, add the required amount of water to the milk powder. If you want to add water to the fresh milk, the total amount of milk and water must be equal to the required amount for the recipe.
-
If you use sugar, preferably use white sugar, brown sugar, or honey. Do not use refined sugar or sugar cubes.
-
If you use salt, the yeast will rise better and the bread will have more taste.
-
If you use butter or oil, the bread will become softer and have more taste.
If you use butter, cut the butter into pieces or allow it to become soft. -
Keep the lid closed during the baking process.
-
If the baking process is completed, use oven gloves to remove the bread pan from the baking compartment and the bread from the bread pan.
-
Allow the bread to cool down before cutting the bread into slices. If you want to eat the bread when it is still warm, it is recommended to cut the bread into slices of 2.5 cm.
-
Use a serrated knife or an electric knife to cut the bread into slices.
-
Keep the bread in an hermetically sealed container to keep the bread fresh as long as possible (approximately 2 days). If the bread contains eggs, the bread must be consumed the same day. If the bread contains neither butter nor oil, the bread must be consumed the same day. Do not keep the bread in the refrigerator.
-
If you want to keep the bread in the freezer, put the bread into a freezing bag before putting it into the freezer.
Memory function
- The appliance is equipped with a memory function. If the power supply is interrupted, the baking process will be continued automatically after 10 minutes, even without pressing the Start/Stop button.
- Before you proceed, we need you to pay attention to the following notes:
- If the power supply is interrupted for more than 10 minutes, the memory function will not work. Remove the old ingredients from the bread pan.
(Do not use the old ingredients for other cooking purposes!) Put new ingredients into the bread pan. Restart the appliance. If the dough is not yet in the rising phase when the power supply is interrupted, you can press Start/Stop button to continue the program from the beginning.
Error messages
-

If the display shows “LLL” after pressing the Start/Stop button (except the programs bake), the temperature in the baking compartment is too low.
Open the lid and allow the appliance to rest for 10 to 20 minutes to return to room temperature. -
