Troubleshooting

I. Bread Making

darker if not enough yeast.
Sugar| Too much sugar and milk used will darken the crust colour. Different kinds of sugar vary in their weight even at the same volume. Measure the right quantity by means of a scale.
Milk Powder
Water| Too little water will make dough harder and darken the crust colour.
Temperature| Residual heat will darken the bread. Take out bread from the unit once done.
The crust colour is too light| Dried Yeast| Too much yeast will make bread over rise and lighten crust colour.
Sugar| Too little sugar and milk powder will lighten crust colour.

• French bread does not contain sugar & milk powder, so it has light crust colour.
  Milk Powder
  Salt| If no salt added bread will over rise and have lighter crust colour.
  The bread does not rise| Dried Yeast| Not enough yeast or the yeast used is too old
  Rise of bread will be affected when yeast contacts directly with water, sugar or salt.
  Flour| Bread does not rise if flour used is too much and too old, or flour used is of poor quality.
  Sugar| Too little sugar will take longer to rise.
  Artificial sugar cannot nurture yeast, hence is not suitable for making bread.
  Salt| Too much salt will hinder rising.
  The bread has risen too much| Dried Yeast| Too much yeast produces too much gas and makes bread over rise.
  Sugar| Too much sugar produces too much gas and makes bread over rise.
  Salt| Too little salt will make the bread rise too much
  Room Temperature| Bread may over rise if room temperature is higher than 30°C.
  The bread is full of air holes| Dried Yeast| Too much yeast produces too much gas and makes coarse texture.
  ---|---|---
  Sugar| Too much sugar produces too much gas and makes coarse texture.
  Room Temperature| Bread may over rise and has coarse texture if room temperature is higher than 30°C.
  The crust is wrinkly| Butter| Ingredients cannot be mixed well if frozen butter is used. Let butter sit in room temperature and cut into small cubes before use.
  The heights and shapes of bread is different every time| Conditions/ Ingredients| The heights and shapes of bread vary even when the same programme is used. Room temperature, quantity and quality of ingredients, delay-start time, all these factors will affect the rise and crust color of bread.
  The bread overflows the baking pan| Check the recipe and measure the right quantity by using a scale. Use right quantity of yeast. Too much yeast will make the bread over rise and overflow the baking pan.
  Can fresh yeast be used for making bread?| Fresh yeast takes longer time to rise, hence is not suitable to be used in Bread Maker. Instant dried yeast is used in this guide.
