Bread - making Ingredients

Use the measuring cup or measuring spoon provided.

If the recipes indicate a mixture (the liquid plus egg), should be weighted on scales. Using digital scale is recommended.

Should be weighed on scales or measured with measuring spoon provided for the small amounts. Using digital scale is recommended.

Main ingredient of bread. The protein in flour forms gluten during kneading. Gluten provides structure and texture and helps the bread to rise.

Use strong bread flour. Strong bread flour is milled from hard wheat and has a high content of protein which is necessary for the development of gluten. Carbon dioxide produced during fermentation is trapped within the elastic network of gluten, thus making the dough rise.

Use normal tap water.

Enables the bread to rise.

Be sure to use dry yeast that does not require pre-fermentation (Do not use dry yeast requiring fermentation before using). Dry yeast which has Instant Yeast, Easy Blend, Fast Action or Easy Bake written on the packet is recommended. When using dry yeast from sachets, seal the sachet again immediately after use, and keep in the refrigerator. (Use within the manufacturer’s recommended time.)

Add flavour and nutritional value. ● If you use milk instead of water, the nutritional value of the bread will be higher, but do not use in timer setting as it may not keep fresh overnight. ïReduce the water content accordingly.

● When room temperature is low, use tepid water for menu 1, 2, 3, 9, 11, or 14.

● When room temperature is high, use chilled water for menu 12. ● Regardless of room temperature, use chilled water for menus 6 and 7. Always measure out liquids using the measuring cup provided.

Adds flavour and softness to the bread. Use butter (unsalted), margarine or oil.

Increases the bread’s fibre content. ● Use max. 30 g (2 tbsp). n Wheat germ Gives the bread a nuttier flavour. ● Use max. 30 g (2 tbsp). n Spices, herbs Enhance the flavour of the bread. Only use a small amount (max. 1 tbsp) for spices. Use up to 1 – 2 tbsp of dried herbs. For fresh herbs, follow the instructions in the recipe.

The bread may lose size / flavour if measuring is inaccurate.

Gluten Free Ingredients

● Gluten free flours, these include flours made from rice, brown rice, almond, seeds, potato starch, etc. do not have protein to firm gluten and on their own do not have this elasticity for bread making.

● Xanthan gum is a one of thickening agent that works in the place of gluten protein during fermentation in gluten free bread baking.

Food for the dry yeast, sweetens and adds flavour to the bread, changes the colour of the crust.

●Use less sugar if using raisins or other fruits, which contain fructose.

Improve the nutritional value and colouring of the bread. ● Reduce the liquid (water) content proportionally. ● Beat eggs when adding them. Do not use timer setting for the recipe with egg. Eggs go rotten quickly and it may not keep fresh.

Follow the recipe / menu instructions for the quantities of each ingredients.

Making gluten free bread is very different from the normal way of producing bread.

It is very important if you are making gluten free bread for health reasons that you have consulted your doctor and follow the guidelines below. ● This program has been developed especially for certain gluten free ingredients, therefore using your own mix may not produce such good results. ● When gluten free is selected, the details for each recipe must be followed carefully. (Otherwise, the bread may not turn out well.) There are two types of gluten - free baking mixtures; mixtures with low content of gluten and mixtures which do not consist of wheat and contain no gluten. If you have to pick one out using this baking program, please consult your doctor beforehand. ● The baking results and bread’s appearance may differ according to the type of mix. Occasionally a bread may have some flour remaining on the side. The wheat free mixes can produce more variable results. ● Wait for the bread to cool before slicing it for the better performance. ● The bread should be stored in a cool dry place and used within 2 days. If you will not be able to use up all the bread within that time, it can be put into freezer bags, in convenient sized portions, and frozen. Warning for the users who use this program for health reasons: When using the gluten free program, make sure to consult your doctor or the Coeliac Association and only use the ingredients which are suitable for your health conditions. Panasonic will not be responsible for any consequences resulting from ingredients that have been used without professional consultation. It is very important to avoid cross contamination with flours that contain gluten if bread is being made for dietary reasons. Particular attention must be paid to the cleaning of the bread pan and kneading blade as well as any utensils that are used.

➝C heck the recipe and measure out the correct amount using the measuring spoon provided. [Soft Bread]  You have used too much liquid. ➝S ome types of flour absorb more water than others, try using 10 – 20 mL less water.

My bread seems to have collapsed after rising.

 The quality of your flour isn’t very good.

➝ T ry using a different brand of flour. [Soft Bread]  You have used too much liquid. ➝ T ry using 10 – 20 mL less water.

The crust creases and goes soft on cooling.

 The steam remaining in the bread after baking can pass into the crust and soften it slightly. ➝ T o reduce the amount of steam, try using 10 – 20 mL less water.

The sides of my bread have collapsed and the bottom is damp.

 You have left the bread in the bread pan for too long after baking.

➝R emove the bread promptly after baking.  There has been a power failure, or the machine has been stopped during breadmaking. * The machine switches off if it is stopped for more than 10 minutes.

How can I keep my crust crispy?

 T o make your bread more crispy, you could bake it in the oven at 200 °C / 392 °F or gas mark 6 for an extra

5 minutes – 10 minutes.

There is excess oil on the bottom of brioche.

The crust is oily. My bread has big holes.

 Did you add butter within 5 minutes of the beep?

➝D o not put butter when display show remaining time until ready. (Step 8 of P. GB14) Butter flavour might be weak, but it can bake.

During or after cooking

 Your flour gluten quality is poor, or you have not used strong bread flour. (Gluten quality can vary depending on temperature, humidity, how the flour is stored, and the season of harvest.) ➝ Try another type, brand or another batch of flour.  The dough becomes too firm as you haven’t used enough liquid. ➝ Strong bread flour with higher protein content absorbs more water than others, try adding an extra 10 – 20 mL.  You are not using the right type of dry yeast. ➝ Use a dry yeast from a sachet, which has instant dry yeast written on it. This type does not require pre - fermentation.  You are not using enough dry yeast, or your dry yeast is old. ➝ Use the measuring spoon provided. Check the dry yeast’s expiry date. (Keep dry yeast in refrigerator)  The dry yeast has pressed liquid before kneading. ➝ Check that you have put the ingredients in the correct order according to the recipe. (P. GB11)  You have used too much salt, or not enough sugar. ➝ Check the recipe and measure out the correct amounts using the measuring spoon provided. ➝ Check that salt and sugar are not included in other ingredients.

Before calling for service, please check through this section.

My brioche did not turn out well when using bread mix.

 Try following things:

➝ It might be baked better if dry yeast is decreased a little when using menu 12. (If adding dry yeast separately) ➝ Follow the recipe on the bread mix, but the bread mix should be between 350 – 500 g. ➝ Place the dry yeast first, follow by dry ingredients, butter, then water into the bread pan. For additional ingredients, add them later. (P. GB14) ➝ The completion is different according to recipe on the bread mix.

Why has my bread not mixed properly?

 You haven’t put the kneading blade in the bread pan.

➝ Make sure the kneading blade is in the bread pan before you put in the ingredients.  There has been a power failure, or the machine has been stopped during breadmaking. ➝ The machine switches off if it is stopped for more than 10 minutes. You might be able to start the bread again, though this might give poor results if kneading had already begun.

Additional ingredients are not mixed properly.

 Did you add additional ingredients into the bread pan while is flashing?

➝ Additional ingredients must be put into the bread pan during is flashing on the display.

Additional ingredients are not mixed properly in Brioche.

 Did you add additional ingredients within 5 minutes of the beep?

➝ Additional ingredients must be added while is flashing in the display.  Some of the bread mix dough is harder to mixed additional ingredients in or to flick out some of them. ➝ Decrease the additional ingredients into half.

My bread has not been baked.

 The dough menu was selected.

➝ The dough menu does not include a baking process.  There has been a power failure, or the machine has been stopped during breadmaking. ➝ The machine switches off if it is stopped for more than 10 minutes. You can try baking the dough in your oven if it has risen and proved.  There is not enough water and the motor protection device has been activated. This only happens when the machine is overloaded and excessive force is applied to the motor. ➝ Visit place of purchase for a service consultation. Next time, check the recipe and measure out the correct amount using the measuring cup provided.  You have forgotten to attach the kneading blade. ➝ Make sure you attach the kneading blade first. (P. GB11)  The kneading mounting shaft in the bread pan is stiff and does not rotate. ➝ If the kneading mounting shaft does not rotate when the kneading blade is attached, you will need to replace the kneading mounting shaft unit. (Consult the place of purchase or Panasonic service centre.)

There is excess flour around the bottom and sides of my bread.

 You have used too much flour, or you are not using enough liquid.

➝ Check the recipe and measure out the correct amount using scales for the flour or the measuring cup provided for liquids.

The bread does not come out.

 If bread sticks to bread pan and is difficult to be taken out, leave the bread pan for 5 minutes – 10 minutes to cool.

Turn the bread pan upside down using oven gloves (see P. GB12). Tap holding both hands onto a clear cooking surface covered with kitchen towel until the bread comes out.

The kneading blade stays in the bread when I remove it from the bread pan.

 The dough is a little stiff.

➝ Allow the bread to cool completely before removing the kneading blade carefully. Some types of flour absorb more water than others, so try adding an extra 10 – 20 mL of water next time.  Crust has built up underneath the kneading blade. ➝ Wash the kneading blade and kneading mounting shaft after each use.

The jam has boiled over.

 Too much fruit or sugar has been used.

➝ Only use the amounts of fruit and sugar specified in the recipes on P. GB16.

Jam is too runny and not firmly set.

 The fruit was under or over ripe.

 Sugar was decreased too much.  Cooking time was insufficient.  Fruit with a low pectin content was used. ➝ Leave the jam to cool completely. The jam will continue to set as it cools. ➝ Use the runny jam as a sauce for desserts.

Cause and Action During or after cooking When cooking jam, it has scorched or the kneading blade fixes and it doesn’t come off.

 The amount of the fruit is too little, or the amount of sugar is too much.

➝ Place the bread pan in the sink and half fill the bread pan with warm water. Leave the bread pan to soak until the cooked on mixture or kneading blade loosens. After scorching is relieved, wash it with a soft sponge etc.

Can frozen fruits be used?

 It can be used for only jam.

What kinds of sugar can we use on jam?

 White caster and granulated can be used.

Do not use brown sugar, diet sugar, and low calorie sugar or artificial sweetener.

When making jam, can we use fruits are pickled in alcohol?

 Do not use them. The quality is not satisfactory.

The kneading blade rattles.

 This is because the kneading blade fits loosely on the kneading mounting shaft. (This is not a fault.)

I can smell burning while the bread is baking.

 Unpleasant odours may be emitted during the initial use, it will not emit again under normal operation.

 Ingredients may have been spilt on the heating element. ➝ Sometimes a little flour, raisins or other ingredients may be flicked out of the bread pan during mixing. Simply wipe the heating element gently after baking once the machine has cooled down. ➝ Remove the bread pan from the main unit to place ingredients.

Smoke is coming out of the steam vent.

 A small amount of dough will escape through the ventilation holes (so that it does not stop the rotating parts from rotating). This is not a fault, but check occasionally that the kneading mounting shaft rotate properly.

➝ If the kneading mounting shaft does not rotate when the kneading blade is attached, you will need to replace the kneading mounting shaft unit. (Consult the place of purchase or Panasonic service centre.) Dough leaks out from bottom of the bread pan.
