Important Safeguards

Read the instructions for use carefully before using your breadmaker for the first time. This product has been designed for domestic use only. Any commercial use, inappropriate use or failure to comply with the instructions, Moulinex accepts no responsibility and the guarantee will not apply. Never leave the breadmaker within reach of children without supervision. This is an appliance designed to work on 230-240 volts AC only. Check that the voltage rating corresponds to that of your household electrical wiring system. Unplug your breadmaker as soon as you have finished using it and when you are cleaning it. Do not use your breadmaker if it is not working correctly or if it has been damaged. If this happens please contact our approved service centre (see details at the end of this booklet). Never dismantle the breadmaker yourself as this will negate your guarantee. This must be done by our approved service centre. Do not place the breadmaker, the power cord or the plug in water or any other liquid. Do not allow the power cord to hang down within reach of children. The power cord must never come into contact with any hot parts of the breadmaker, any external heat source or rest on sharp edges. Always plug in the appliance at an earthed power socket. Do not use an extension lead. If you accept liability for doing so, only use an extension lead which is in good condition, has an earthed plug and is suited to the power of the appliance. Never use or plug in your appliance if: - its power cord is faulty or damaged - the appliance has been dropped - it has visible damage or operating faults. In such cases, to avoid any danger, contact our approved service centre to have the appliance repaired as special tools are needed. Do not switch on the appliance near to inflammable materials (blinds, curtains etc) or close to an external heat source (gas stove, hotplate etc). Use only accessories and spare parts from Moulinex which are suitable for the breadmaker. At the end of the program, always wear oven gloves to handle the pan or the hot parts of the breadmaker. The breadmaker becomes very hot during use.
Never obstruct the air vent grid. Do not cover the top of the appliance with any type of material whilst in use as this may cause the viewing window to melt. Take great care as steam may escape when you open the lid at the end of or during the program. When you use program 10 (jam, compotes) be careful as there may be a jet of steam and hot splashes as you open the lid.

How To Use Your Breadmaker
For bread making (programs 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 8, 9 only)
select the number of the program required for the recipe, when you release the button the total cycle time will be displayed in hours and minutes. Each time you press the button it will advance one program. If you go too far when pressing the menu control, either switch the appliance off and start again or simply carry on pressing the button until it goes back to the beginning (program 1). If you want program 1, you do not need to press the menu control (J6).
1 Open the lid and remove the baking pan (E)
by firmly pulling it straight up by the handle. It is important to remove the baking pan from the appliance, to avoid accidentally spilling ingredients into the inner case (D), rather than putting the ingredients into the pan while it is in place.
2 Attach the kneading blade (F) onto the shaft
and push firmly down. Be sure the shaft and kneading blade are clean of any breadcrumbs or dough.
6 For programs 1 to 4 only, press the
browning adjustment (J5) to select the crust colour - 1 = lightly browned, 2 = browned and 3 = very browned. An arrow will point to the setting selected. If you have chosen programs 5 to 10 the level of browning and weight are automatically selected (browning on 2 and weight on 750 g).
3 Place the ingredients in the pan in exactly
the same order stated in the recipe, always adding the yeast last. Make sure the yeast does not come in contact with the liquid, salt or sugar. Always measure the ingredients carefully using the cup and spoon provided. For liquids place the cup on a flat surface and view at eye level. When using the spoon level off the ingredients with the straight edge of a knife. Heaped measurements of critical ingredients can dramatically affect the cooked result.

4 Place the pan in the unit. Push down firmly
until you hear it click in position. Fold down the handle (its easier to remove after baking if you position it at the front). Note: If the baking pan is not fitted correctly the kneading blade will not operate.
5 Close the lid. Plug in the appliance. Initially
the display temporarily reads 1P on the display to indicate program 1 and then shows 3:00 hours. Press the menu control (J6) to
Press the start/stop button (J4) to start the program, the program is set and the time starts to count down on the display. If the wrong program has accidentally been set and the program has already started, firmly press down the start/stop button continuously for about 5 seconds until the display shows P for program, then within 5 seconds reset to the required number program using the menu button. Note: For program 2, there is a rest time for the first 30 minutes to help soften the flour and settle the temperature of the ingredients. Mixing does not begin until the display shows 3:40 (750 g setting) and 3:30 (500 g setting).
During use it is normal to hear the machine make thumping noises while it kneads the dough. Also, during certain stages in the program it is usual for condensation to form on the viewing window. NEVER open the lid during the rising and baking time as it will let warm air escape and can affect the results dramatically. Warning: Do not cover the top of the appliance with any type of material whilst in use as this may cause the viewing window to melt. Do not touch the viewing window as it gets hot during the baking cycle. Ideally remove the bread from the pan as soon as its ready. There may be times when this is not possible, so the appliance automatically switches to the keep warm function (see point 12) to prevent condensation spoiling the bread. Switch off the bread maker at the mains and unplug. Open the lid and lift out the bread pan using oven gloves, as it will be very hot (this is easier if the handle is positioned at the front). Warning: Do not place the bread pan on heat sensitive surfaces as it will be hot.
Allow the appliance to cool with the lid open for at least 30 minutes before using again.
Using The Timer For A Delayed Start
You can program the Breadmaker up to 13 hours in advance, so that the bread is ready at a time to suit you. The cycle time will be exactly the same, it just means that you can delay when the bread making will begin. For example, you can set the timer in the evening and wake up to fresh bread the following morning. This function cannot be used on programs 5, 6, 10, and 11. Follow the instructions in How to Use Your Breadmaker steps 1 - 7. The program time for the setting you have selected will be displayed. Calculate the time you want the bread to be ready. Example: If it is 8 pm when you place the ingredients in the baking pan and you want your bread ready at 7.30 am tomorrow morning, set the timer to 11:30 (11 hours and 30 minutes), the time required until the completion of the bread. Use the delayed start buttons (J2) to set the required time. Each time you press the + or button the display will increase or decrease in 10 minutes increments. Once you have set the time, press the start/stop button (J4). The colon in the display will flash to indicate that the timer has been set and the countdown will begin. If you make a mistake while setting the delayed start buttons, press and hold the Start/Stop button (J4) until it flashes 1 P and you can set the timer again.

11 To remove the loaf from the pan, still wear
oven gloves and turn the pan upside down and shake the bread out onto a wire rack to cool. If you have difficulty removing the loaf, loosen the sides with a plastic or wooden spatula (never use metal utensils as they could scratch the non-stick coating). Allow the bread to cool before slicing. (See section Slicing and Storing Home Made Bread page 6). Sometimes the kneading blade can remain in the loaf after baking, to remove it wait until the loaf has cooled slightly and then use the end of a plastic spatula or other non-metallic utensil to prise it out. Remember the kneading blade could still be hot. If the kneading blade remains stuck in the bottom of the pan, fill with warm water and leave to soak to loosen the blade from the shaft. Note: The handle on the baking pan may remain very hot for a long time after use, so take care when you come to wash it.
Slicing and storing home made bread
Cool bread on a wire rack for at least an hour before slicing with a sharp, serrated edge knife or electric carving knife. If you want to eat the bread while it is still warm we advise cutting chunky slices about 2.5 cm (1 inch) thick, otherwise it is difficult to get even slices. Store bread in an airtight container or wrap loosely in a polythene bag and keep in a cool dry place. Do not keep in the refrigerator as it stales more quickly and draws the water out. Crusty bread recipes are best stored in a paper bag to prevent the crust softening.
12 The Keep Warm function automatically
begins when the baking time has finished and the display shows 0:00. During the one hour period of keeping warm a beep continues to sound at regular intervals and at the end of the cycle automatically turn itself off. Bread can be removed at any time during the keep warm period. To turn off the Keep Warm feature manually, switch off at the mains and unplug.
Getting To Know Your Breadmaker
Whether you are inexperienced at making bread or have been making your own bread for years, with your Moulinex Home Bread Maker you can gain the satisfaction of baking a loaf of bread. Just add the ingredients, select the type of bread and size of loaf then simply press the start button. The Home Bread Maker then mixes, kneads, proves, and bakes the bread automatically, all in the same pan leaving you free to do something else. What could be simpler? You can even set the timer to delay mixing, so that you can wake next morning to have a loaf of bread ready for you and your home filled with the delicious aroma of freshly baked bread. Besides being able to make loaves, your Home Bread Maker can also prepare bread dough for rolls, buns and pizzas, ready to shape it by hand and then bake in a conventional oven. In fact there are 11 settings, including some for making teabreads and cakes, and another for making jam plus the choice of making two

Sugar is required as food for the yeast. Generally granulated sugar is used in the recipes, but any type of sugar can be added, including caster sugar, brown sugar, golden syrup, or honey. However too much sugar may affect the rising process and make the bread collapse. As sugar burns easily too much can make the crust too dark. Artificial sweeteners cannot be substituted for sugar as the yeast will not react with them.

Salt is a vital ingredient as it prevents the yeast from working too quickly and making it rise too much, adds flavour and helps the gluten to stretch. However, too much salt slows down the fermentation process and too little results in a poor dough. Use ordinary table salt and ensure the salt does not come in contact with the yeast before mixing otherwise it could kill the yeast. Do not use coarsely ground salt or salt substitutes.

(I) This setting is sometimes used for other recipes. (II) This program has a longer rise time for breads containing 50% or more wholewheat flour. (III) The Sweet setting is for baking breads with high amounts of sugar, fat and proteins, all of which tend to increase browning. (IV) Beeper sounds when it is time to add the additional ingredients eg. Fruit or nuts etc.
For special diets, it is possible to make salt free bread but it tends to over rise and have large air pockets. Please contact our Customer Relations Team for recipe information on: 4554 - UK (calls charged at local rate) - Ireland.

Super Rapid Bake Bread

Your Moulinex breadmaker can bake a white loaf in under one hour using the Super Rapid program number 5. Loaves baked on this setting are a little more dense in texture with less rise and tend to have a darker crust than with the other programs. Sometimes there is a crack along the top of the crust. The loaf is best eaten fresh on the day it is made. Super Rapid Program Tips and Hints Always use HOT water in the range 46C to 51C for the Super Rapid program. This is essential as the yeast needs to activate quickly due to the shorter kneading and rising time. We advise you use a cooking thermometer to check the temperature, if the water is too hot it could kill the yeast. Use less salt to help obtain a higher volume loaf. More yeast is used when making bread using the Super Rapid program so that sufficient volume is achieved in the short rising time. All the other ingredients used should be at room temperature to avoid cooling the water. The delayed start option cannot be used with this program. Do not open the lid at anytime during the Super Rapid program.

Remove the dough from the pan and briefly knead by hand on a lightly floured surface to obtain a smooth ball of dough. Divide the dough into 8 pieces for large rolls and 10 pieces for small rolls. Roll into balls or shape as required. Place on a greased baking tray. Cover with lightly oiled polythene and leave to rise until doubled in size. Glaze with beaten egg and bake in a preheated oven at 220C (425F), Gas Mark 7 for 10 - 15 minutes until well risen and golden brown. Cool on a wire rack. Best eaten freshly made. Makes 8-10 rolls.

Gluten Free Bread Making

Your Moulinex Home Bread can be used to make gluten free bread but the method is very different from traditional bread making. Please follow the guidelines below. Commercially prepared Gluten free bread mixes such as Glutafin, Trufree and Juvela should be prepared as directed by the manufacturer. For further information and gluten free bread recipe leaflets for bread machines please contact: Nutrica Customer Care Line for Glutafin (www.glutafin.co.uk) and Trufree products (www.trufree.co.uk). SHS International Ltd Advice Line 1992 (www.juvela.co.uk) for Juvela products. If gluten bread is made for dietary reasons it is very important to avoid cross contamination with flours containing gluten. Ensure the bread pan and blade, plus any utensils used, are thoroughly cleaned. With gluten free bread mixes and flours the ingredients are mixed to a thick batter, unlike the dough made in traditional bread making. To ensure an even mix open the lid during the first kneading and stir in any dried mix around the sides using a rubber or plastic spatula. Usually the liquid ingredients are added to the bread pan first and then the dry ingredients (but do not allow salt to come in contact with the yeast). The blade may get stuck in the cooked loaf and this is to be expected with gluten free bread. Leave the loaf to cool for 10 minutes and remove the blade using the end of a plastic spatula but take care when removing as it will still be very hot. Alternatively Barbaras Kitchen can supply tailor made recipes for your own particular food intolerances or food allergies.

For a walnut topping, just before the baking cycle starts (time on display 1 hr 30 min) open the lid and sprinkle 50 g (2 oz) chopped walnuts on top of the mixture. 18
Cakes can be mixed in a separate bowl and then baked in the bread pan using Program 11 providing they cook within 1 hour. However it is not suitable for all cake recipes, such as Victoria Sandwich mix, or those that require a hot oven or have a high sugar content as they tend to burn. Remove the kneading blade from the pan and line the sides and bottom with baking parchment, before adding the cake mixture. Cooked cakes may have a thicker, darker crust than in a conventional oven. When baking has finished and remove the pan from the machine immediately using oven gloves. Switch off the appliance at the mains and unplug. Still using oven gloves, loosen the sides of the cake with a spatula and turn out on to a wire rack.

Jams And Compotes

Small quantities of jam, sufficient to make about 675 g (11/2 lb) of jam, can be made on Program 10. The setting of the jam will depend on the quality of the fruit which should only be just ripe. Poor quality fruit, under ripe or over ripe fruit will give a poor set. Adding fresh lemon juice, squeezed from lemons, helps the jam to set as does Certo, apple pectin extract, available from large supermarkets. When cooled it will keep for about 2 weeks in the refrigerator. Safety note: When making jam never exceed the maximum quantity in the recipe otherwise it could boil over into the inner case. Do not open the lid during the jam cycle and when it has finished leave the jam for 10 minutes before slowly opening the lid. Some hot steam may escape. Always use oven gloves when slowly pouring the jam into the warmed jars as the jam will be very hot.

Orange Drizzle Cake

Softened margarine or butter Caster sugar Plain flour Baking powder Eggs (medium) Finely grated rind and juice of oranges For the topping: Icing sugar 150 g (5 oz) 150 g (5 oz) 225 g (8 oz) 2 teaspoon 2 tablespoons

Cream the fat and sugar together. Beat in the eggs gradually. Fold in the sieved flour and baking powder. Stir in the orange rind and 2 tablespoon orange juice. Remove the kneading blade from the pan and line the bottom and sides with baking parchment. Place the mixture in the bread pan. Select Program 11 (1 hr). Follow the directions above. Pierce the cake with a skewer. Place a tray under the cake and sift 1 tablespoon of the icing sugar over the hot cake. Slowly pour 4 tablespoon of orange juice over the cake. Sift another 1 tablespoon of icing sugar over the cake. Serve warm as a dessert with ice-cream, or serve cold at teatime. Alternatively, do not soak with orange juice, split in half and fill with orange flavoured buttercream.
Wash and hull the strawberries. Cut the fruit in half or if very large cut into quarters. Place the sugar in the pan and then add the fruit and lemon juice. Select program 10 (1 hr 05 min). When the program finishes switch off the appliance at the mains and unplug, but wait 10 minutes before slowly opening the lid. Using oven gloves remove the pan and carefully stir in Certo using a wooden spoon. Pour into warmed jars and cover. Note: For a soft set style jam omit the Certo.

Troubleshooting

Problem

Cannot read the display.

Reason
There is a protective film over the display when new.

Correction

Remove the protective film.
Bread does not rise at all.
Forgot to add yeast or yeast was stale. Yeast killed by contact with salt or by adding an ingredient that is too hot. Liquid touched yeast before kneading.
Yeast should be discarded 48 hours after opening and not be past its expiry date. Always place the ingredients in the order stated in the recipe with the liquid first and yeast last. Only use tepid ingredients.
Not mixing or working on Program 2.
On program 2 for the first 30 minutes it will seem that the breadmaker is not doing anything, However, there is a slight temperature rise within the breadmaker to activate the yeast during this time. The next operation will begin when the display shows 3:40 (750 g setting) and 3:30 (500 g setting).
Wait for 30 minutes. Do not open the lid of the breadmaker during this time as this will affect the cycle. Wholemeal bread has less rise. It is normal for bread made with wholemeal flour to have less rise and a denser texture.
For a lighter texture use the 50% wholemeal recipe.
Detachable kneading blade stuck in the bread.
This is normal for breadmakers for this design.
Grease the shaft and inside of the blade with oil before fitting in the pan. Ensure that the bread cools down before removing the kneading blade and use plastic utensils to avoid damaging the blade.
Wholemeal bread sometimes has a wrinkled top or slightly sunken top.
This is typical for wholemeal bread in your Home Bread Maker as the gluten gets overstretched in the kneading, rising and baking processes.
You may prefer results using program 1 for Rapid Baked Wholemeal bread which has a shorter rising time. The rustic appearance does not affect the taste and quality of the bread.

Loaf had a big air hole inside or top crust has split/erupted. Detachable kneading blade stuck in the baking pan. This is normal for breadmakers of this design. Food debris not cleaned from inside the kneading blade and/or shaft gets baked on causing the blade to lock tight. Soak the pan in hot water and washing up liquid for 5 mins or longer. Remove the blade using plastic utensils to avoid damaging the blade and the pan. Heavy, lumpy bread. Loaf had a hole underneath and the bread is doughy around this part. This is normal for breadmakers of this design. If the doughy part is only partially cooked possibly too much liquid used. Use the dough Program 8 instead and bake in a conventional oven. Slice the loaf on its side, so that the top crust is the first slice, then the hole part is the last slice. Use less liquid.
Liquid touched yeast before kneading.
Always place the ingredients in the order stated in the recipe with the liquid first. When using the delayed start option make sure the yeast is in the centre of the pan.
Too much liquid. Not enough yeast. Too much flour. Older ingredients or wrong type of flour.
Reduce the liquid by 1-2 tbsp at a time. Use accurate measures. Increase yeast by 1/4 tsp at a time. Reduce quantity of flour. Use fresh ingredients.
Open, moist/too porous bread.
Too much liquid. No salt added.

Bread rises too much.

Too much yeast added. Too much flour or incorrect type of flour. Not enough salt or forgot to add it. Liquid touched yeast before kneading.
Use accurate measures for yeast and salt. Use less yeast (reduce by 1/4 tsp at a time). Check that all the ingredients have been added and the flour is the correct type. It is essential to add the ingredients in the order in the recipe with the yeast last.
Use accurate measures. In high humidity use a little less water. Different batches of flour may require less liquid.
Air bubble under the crust.
The dough was poorly mixed.
Unfortunately this does happen on one-off occasions. If the problem persists add an extra tablespoon of liquid.
Bread does not rise enough.
Not enough yeast. Yeast is too old or wrong type used. Too much/not enough water/liquid. Lid has been opened during the rising program. Wrong type of flour used or stale flour. Liquid was too cold or too hot. No sugar added.
