[. . . ] Flour may produce different results from brand to brand or even batch to batch, so you may need to adapt the quantity of liquid by 1 or 2 tablespoons to achieve the same cooked result. Too much liquid can cause a loaf to over rise and collapse, and too little can result in a lower rise. Most recipes use either cold tap water or milk, or a combination of the two. Any liquid used in the recipes should be tepid, about 20°C 25 °C, and not too cold. In winter weather water straight from the tap may be too cold and likewise milk straight from the refrigerator. Water alone produces a crisp crust and milk softens the crust. If using fresh milk, we advise using semi-skimmed or skimmed milk to avoid bread having a close texture. Do not use fresh milk on the delayed start program as it could sour overnight. Bread Making With The Delayed Start Program If you are using the delayed start facility, the yeast must not come in contact with the liquid so ensure the flour totally covers the liquid ingredients underneath. Also, do not use fresh milk, eggs, fresh fruit, sour cream, yoghurt or cheese as they could spoil or stale overnight. Glazes For Baked Bread To give your loaf an attractive finish the top crust can be brushed with any of the following after it has been baked and removed from the bread pan. Melted butter or margarine Melt some butter or margarine in a saucepan or in the microwave and brush over the top of the bread for a soft, tender crust. Milk or cream glaze Brush some single cream or evaporated milk over the top for a shiny, soft crust. Jam, Syrup or Honey Ideal for buns and sweet breads. Glacé Icing Mix a little warm water with some sifted icing sugar to make a fairly thick icing. Spread over buns and sweet breads.
