It is in your interest to retain the retailers receipt as proof of purchase. Please quote the following information if the product develops a fault. These numbers can be found on the base of the product. [. . . ] All purpose flour/plain flour All purpose Flour is a blend of refined hard and soft wheat flours especially suitable for making cake. This type of flour should be used for recipes in the cake/quick bread section. Strong plain flour/bread flour Bread flour is a high gluten/protein flour that has been treated with conditioners that give dough a greater suitability for kneading. Bread Flour typically has a higher gluten concentration than All purpose flour; however, depending on different milling practices, this may vary. Strong plain flour or bread flour are recommended for use with this breadmaker. Whole wheat flour/wholemeal flour Whole wheat flour/wholemeal flour is milled from the entire wheat kernel which contains the bran and germ and makes it heavier and richer in nutrients than white flour. Breads made with this flour are usually smaller and heavier than white loaves. To overcome this whole wheat flour/wholemeal flour can be mixed with Bread flour or strong plain flour to produce a high light textured bread. Self-raising flour Self-raising Flour contains unnecessary leavening ingredients that will interfere with bread and cake making. Bran Bran (unprocessed) & Wheat Germ are the coarse outer portions of the wheat or rye grains separated from flour by sifting or bolting. They are often added in small quantities to bread for nutritional enrichment, heartiness and flavour. They are also used to enhance the texture of bread. 11 Liquids/milk Liquids such as milk or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavour, provide a velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Some liquids call for juice (orange, apple, etc) to be added as a flavour enhancer. Note: For most recipes we suggest the use of dry skimmed milk. Eggs Eggs add richness and a velvety texture to bread doughs and cakes. Sunflower oil `Shortens' or tenderises the texture of yeast breads. Butter or margarine can be used as a substitute. If butter or margarine is used direct from the refrigerator it should be softened for easier blending during the mixing cycle. Baking powder Baking powder is a raising agent used in cakes. This type of raising agent does not require rising time before baking as the chemical reaction works when liquid ingredients are added. Bicarbonate of soda Bicarbonate of soda is another raising agent not to be confused or substituted for baking powder. [. . . ] (Water must be between 21°C and 28°C). Question 20 Why do the loaves vary in height and weight?The whole wheat/wholemeal breads are always shorter. No, it is normal for Whole Wheat and Wholemeal breads to be shorter and denser than Basic or French breads. [. . . ]
