Note: During jam cycle, tones will sound at 5 minutes and 10 minutes into
program, as a recommendation to clear sides of the pan with a spatula.
Last-minute Loaf – The Last-Minute Loaf is a fast bake cycle, which goes
through kneading, rising and baking in approximately an hour. Mix-ins must
be added at the very beginning of the cycle with other basic ingredients.
Please note: Because they are added at the beginning, there will be no
signal indicating mix-ins.
This function can come in handy when you cannot plan ahead for bread
making. The Last-Minute Loaf cycle requires the use of rapid rising yeast.
Recipes begin on page 84 of recipe section. The kneading and rising of this
cycle is suitable for white bread recipes. Allow it to cool before cutting or
allow to remain in the bread maker for 60 minutes on Keep Warm cycle
before serving.
Bake Only – This menu setting activates the bread maker for bake function
only, and can be set in 10-minute intervals up to 90 minutes. You can use this
setting if you want the finished loaf to have darker crust color (this will only
require a few extra minutes, so keep your eye on the loaf). Bake Only can
also be used to bake store-purchased doughs.
CYCLES OF BREAD MAKING
Knead – There are typically 3 knead cycles for most bread types. The first
knead cycle will actually mix the ingredients. Mix-ins can be added during the
second knead. The one or two other short knead cycles will punch the dough
down before the rise cycles.
Rise – There are periods of resting in which the unit will not be active except
for the countdown display. These are rise cycles. A good rise is as important
to the flavor of your bread as kneading and baking. During the rise, the
machine will appear inactive – the dough is “at work”.
Bake – The Cuisinart
TM
Convection Bread Maker will regulate the baking time
and temperature according to the individual recipe.
Convection feature – A fan circulates air throughout baking cycles for better
overall browning and crispier crust. The convection feature runs during Bake
Only and Keep Warm only.
Warm – The Keep Warm cycle allows you to leave the finished bread in the
machine to serve warm. It also helps keep the crust from becoming soggy
if not removed from the machine immediately after baking. Some crusts
will darken slightly in Keep Warm mode. For best results it is recommended
to remove finished loaf as soon as baking cycle is complete. Cool on a
baking rack.
AUDIBLE TONES
Mix-ins – The signal consists of a series of four sets of 5 long beeps each at
14 minutes before the end of the second knead (page 4, #8).
Remove Paddle – The signal consists of a series of three sets of 6 quick
beeps before last rise (page 5, #11).
Baking Cycle Complete – At the end of the baking cycle a series of
10 beeps will sound when the cycle is done (page 5, #12).
Keep Warm Function – There will be a series of 12 beeps after the
completion of the keep warm function.
Jam Program Only – Tones will sound at 5 minutes and 10 minutes into
program (page 8) as a recommendation to clean sides of the pan with a
spatula.
Error Beep – There will be an error beep if you press an invalid function
(page 4, #6 and #7).
