AE4 TOASTING Toasting involves exposing bread to a controlled heat, which causes a chemical reaction called the ‘Maillard Reaction’. This doesn’t just brown the bread, but alters the avour and texture, which is why toast tastes so good! Since toasting is a combination of drying then cooking the bread, it is aected by various factors such as dierences in the bread’s thickness, freshness and surface texture. Local and regional variations in household electricity voltages can also have an eect on toasting time which is why we would advise to initially try dierent toasting settings in order to nd your perfect shade of toast. TOASTING BREAD

1. Sit the toaster upright on a rm, level, heat-resistant surface.

2. Put the plug into the power socket.

3. Turn the browning control to the required setting. The mid part (3-6) of the browning control has

more ‘click’ positions between the numbers which give you more precise control over the browning setting in the medium/dark toasting range. Because your toaster toasts more quickly than you may be used to, we suggest that you start o on a low setting and make small adjustments as required until you gain experience using your toaster.

4. Put bread into the toasting slot (maximum thickness 25mm).

5. Press the lever down fully. It won’t lock down unless the toaster is connected to the electricity supply.

6. The light will come on and elements will heat up.

7. When it’s done, the toast will pop up.
