INTRODUCTION
FIRST STEPS
Tips for baking bread.
1.
Read the instructions carefully and use the recipes: bread in a bread machine is baked differently than “by hand”!
2.
All ingredients used should be at ambient temperature (unless otherwise stated) and carefully weighed. Measure liquids using the supplied graduated beaker. Measure liquids using the included measuring cup. Use a double scoop, with a tablespoon and a teaspoon.
If the dosage is incorrect
the results will be bad.
3.
Use ingredients before their expiration date. Store them in a cool, dry place.
4.
It is important to measure the exact amount of flour. Therefore, weigh the flour on a kitchen scale. Use dry yeast from a packet. Unless recipes indicate otherwise, do not use baker's yeast. After opening a packet of yeast, use it within no more than two days.
5.
To avoid interfering with the rising of the dough, it is recommended to load all the ingredients into the container from the beginning and try not to open the lid during the cycle (unless otherwise instructed). Carefully follow the order of the bookmarks and the quantities of ingredients indicated in the recipes. Add liquids first, then add solids. The yeast should not come into contact with either liquid or salt.

In the event of a power failure: if this occurs during a work cycle, the program execution is interrupted by a power outage or incorrect operation; The bread machine has a 7-minute power reserve, during which the program is saved. The cycle resumes with
stopping places. After this time, programming is lost.
If two programs are to be run in succession, wait 1 hour before starting the second operation to allow the appliance to cool completely.
PRACTICAL TIPS
You can program your bread maker so that your baked goods are ready at the selected time, up to 13 hours in advance. Delay mode cannot be used for programs 8, 9, 10, 11, 12. This step is activated after selecting the program, degree of browning and weight. The indicator indicates the execution time of the program. Calculate the time between starting the program and the date by which you want to receive your baked goods. The bread machine already includes automatic program cycles. Buttons

signal. The indicator displays the default time. Set the desired time again. Make sure that individual ingredients are not perishable. Do not use the delayed mode when preparing dishes containing raw eggs, yogurt, cheese, or fresh fruit.
Fats and vegetable oil:
fats
give bread fluffiness and taste. This bread also lasts longer. Excess fat slows down the rise of the dough. If you use butter, cut it into small pieces for a more even distribution in the dough, or soften it first. Do not put liquid oil into the bread machine. Avoid contact of fats with yeast, as fat may prevent the yeast from hydrating.
Eggs:
eggs enrich the dough, improve the color of the bread and
contribute to the formation of a tasty crumb. If you use eggs, reduce the amount of liquid ingredients. Crack the egg and add liquid to the volume specified for liquid in the recipe. Recipes call for a medium 50 gram egg; for larger eggs add a little flour,
for smaller eggs, reduce the amount of flour.
Milk:
you can use fresh or
powdered milk. If you are using powdered milk, add water to the original volume. If you are using fresh milk, you can also add water - the total volume of liquid should be equal to the volume specified in the recipe. Milk also has an emulsifying effect, resulting in more uniform cavities and a better-looking crumb.
Water:
water saturates and activates the yeast. She
also saturates the starch contained in the flour and ensures the formation of crumb. Water can be replaced, partially or completely, with milk or other liquids. Liquids should be at room temperature when added.
OTHER PROGRAM SETTINGS
INGREDIENTS
How to choose and what to pay attention to?
- Pay attention to the weight of the resulting baked goods . For a large family, a good parameter would be a weight of 1 to 1.5 kg (max. weight).
- On the type of control . The touchpad is popular. If the budget is limited, then electronic control will be a good option.
- For a set of functions . The manufacturer offers only multifunctional devices. In addition to baking, a bread machine allows you to cook soup, prepare porridge, jam, cottage cheese, and so on. You should decide in advance on the purposes of its use, so as not to regret your choice in the future.
- To cover the bowl . Moulinex uses only high-quality and durable bowl coating. For example, you can find ceramic, nanoceramic, metal, non-stick. The first two types are in high demand: they are easy to care for, food does not burn, and no odors remain.
- For complete set . Usually the manufacturer does not skimp, offering a wide range of additional accessories. But it's worth studying the list, since buying accessories will seriously hit your pocket.

Baked bread is very sensitive to temperature and humidity. If the room temperature is very high, it is recommended to use a cooler liquid than usual. At low temperatures, you may have to heat the water or milk (to a temperature no higher than 35°C).
Sometimes it is also useful to check the condition of the dough during kneading: it should be a homogeneous mass that easily lags behind the walls of the container: > if there is unkneaded flour left, add
some water,
> otherwise it may be necessary
add flour.
Flour or water should be added very carefully (one tablespoon at a time), and ensure the quality of the dough before adding new portions.
A common mistake is to assume that adding yeast will make the dough rise better. On the contrary, if there is too much yeast, the structure of the dough becomes more fragile, it rises high and falls during baking. The quality of the dough can be assessed by lightly tapping it with your fingers - the dough should “resist” indentation, and the dents on it should gradually smooth out.
Flour:
The weight of flour depends greatly on its type. IN
Depending on the quality of flour, the resulting baked goods may also change. Store flour in an airtight container, as it can react to fluctuations in temperature and humidity by absorbing or releasing moisture. Adding oat flour, bran, wheat germ, rye flour, and finally whole grains to the dough produces a heavier and less fluffy bread. It is recommended to use premium flour unless otherwise specified in recipes. The results are also influenced by how much the flour is sifted - the more whole it is (that is, if it contains particles of the shell of wheat grains), the less the dough rises, and the denser the bread turns out. You can also find ready-made baking dough in stores. When using this test, follow the manufacturer's instructions. In general, when choosing a program, adhere to the requirements for finished baked goods. For example, for wholemeal bread, use program 4.
Sugar:
preferable use
refined sugar or honey. Never use refined sugar or lump sugar. Sugar feeds the yeast, gives the bread flavor, and improves the golden brown color of the crust. Salt: Salt adds flavor to baked goods and helps regulate yeast activity. It should not come into contact with the yeast. Thanks to salt, the dough turns out hard, compact, and does not rise very quickly. Salt also improves the texture of the dough.
Yeast:
yeast ensures the dough rises.
Use active dry yeast in packets. The quality of yeast varies and it does not always expand at the same rate. So the quality
bread may vary depending on the yeast used. Old yeast or improperly stored yeast does not work as well as freshly opened dry yeast. All proportions in recipes are for dehydrated yeast. If you use fresh yeast, you should take triple the amount (by weight) and dilute it with a small amount of warm, slightly sugared water for a more effective effect. Dry yeast can be sold in the form of small balls, they should also be diluted with a small amount of warm, lightly sugared water. This yeast is used in the same proportions as dry yeast in sheets, but we recommend using dry yeast in sheets as it is easier to prepare.
Additives (olives, oils, etc.):
Can
use your own recipes, adding any desired additives; however, you should: > strictly observe the time indicated by the sound
signal for introducing additives, especially the most delicate ones,
> keep in mind that the hardest grains (e.g.
flaxseed or sesame seeds) can be added
at the very beginning of kneading, to make it easier to use the bread maker (for example, when manually
setting the time),
> carefully drain moisture from very wet
ingredients (olives),
> lightly roll fatty ingredients in flour to
obtaining a more homogeneous dough,
> don't add them in too much quantity - this is
may damage the test.
