Wake up to the smell of freshly baked bread with this
programmable bread machine. Simply add the ingredients, choose
from several options using the touch-pad controls, and it takes
care of the rest. It will mix the ingredients, knead the dough,
let it rise, and bake it to perfection--soft on the inside and
cri on the outside. Choose from 12 preprogrammed menu options;
1-, 1-1/2-, and 2-pound loaf sizes; and three crust
settings--light, medium, or dark. Other highlights include a
13-hour delay-start timer, a removable lid with a viewing window,
power-failure backup, sturdy stay-cool handles, and a removable
kneading paddle and bread pan for easy cleanup. Accessories

for gluten-free breads, as well as jams and sauces. Mix-ins must
be added at the very beginning of the cycle with other basic
ingredient. With its modern design and embossed logo, the bread
machine measures 18 by 12-1/5 by 15 inches.
From the Manufacturer
Nothing says “home” like warm, just-baked bread. With this
programmable automatic breadmaker from Cuisinart, all you have to
do is add ingredients and select the time you’d like it to start
the process. The breadmaker mixes it, kneads it, and bakes it. It
also come with lots of bread recipes, as well as recipes for
pastries and jams. You’ll discover you’ve bought yourself much
more than a breadmaker (while still enjoying the lovely smell and
taste of homemade bread). For safety, this unit is equipped with
a power failure backup system. In case of any disruption of power
supply, the unit will store in memory the stage of bread making
cycle and resume once power is restored. The power back up
feature can maintain memory for a power failure up to 15 minutes.
And for easy clean up, the removable pan and paddle, cup, and
spoon are dishwasher safe. The removable lid and touchpad control
wipe clean with a damp cloth; fewer crevices make the unit easier
to clean.
Easy-to-Use Control Panel
* LCD Display: Displays loaf size and crust color selection along
with the current function. Also used to view menu selection and
delay start timer, which allows you to delay the bread-making
process up to 13 hours.
* Loaf Size Button: Selects a 1-pound, 1-1/2-pound, or 2-pound
loaf.
* Crust Color Button: Selects a light, medium or dark crust.
* Menu Button: Selects program.
* Program List: Lists the first 11 preprogrammed menu selections:
use the menu button to select from this list: * Basic/White: The
white bread cycle uses primarily white flour.
* French/Italian: French/Italian breads require special timing
and temperatures to achieve that wonderful cri, nicely browned
crust.
* Whole Wheat Bread: This is a yeast bread made with a
significant portion of whole wheat flour (50% or more). Breads
made from whole wheat flour are more tious because the flour
is milled from the entire wheat berry (including the bran and the
germ). Using whole wheat flour produces a bread that is brown to
dark brown in color (when all the whole wheat flour is used).
* Sweet Bread: The sweet bread program is specifically designed
to bake breads with high as of sugar, s, and proteins.
These added ingredients tend to increase browning of the finished
loaves.
* Gluten Free: One in approximately 100 people has an y or
sensitivity to gluten. Since gluten is found in most flours used
in traditional bread making, the ingredients to create gluten
free breads are unique. While they are “yeast breads”, the doughs
are generally wet and have a batter-like consistency. It is also
important not over-mix or over-knead gluten free doughs. There is
only one rise, and due to the high moisture content, baking time
is increased. Mix-ins must be added at the very beginning of the
cycle with other basic ingredients.
* Packaged Mix: This program is for prepackaged yeast bread
mixes--the 1-1/2 and 2 pound dough mixes work best.
* Cake/Quick Bread: Cake-like in texture, and referred to as
batter breads in some cookbooks, these are usually baked in a
shaped pan such as a muffin tin or loaf pan. They get their
leavening from baking powder, baking soda, and eggs. Mix-ins must
be added at the very beginning of the cycle with other basic
ingredients. If a quick bread is a little moist on top when
baking is complete (moisture will depend on ingredients of the
quick bread), leave it in the bread maker for an extra 10 to 15
minutes with no heat, and it will continue baking.
* Dough: There are two ways to prepare dough in the bread maker
if you wish to bake it in a conventional oven. One way is by
using the Dough cycle. It mixes ingredients, kneads and takes the
dough through the first rise cycle. It is appropriate for almost
any dough recipe (except gluten free) and ideal for pizza dough.
It is intended that dough will be removed, deflated, and shaped
by hand and allowed to rise 1 or 2 more times out of the bread
maker. Alternatively, you can choose a specific bread type from
the menu options, and remove the dough when the signal before the
last rise sounds.
* Pasta Dough: The pasta dough program mixes and kneads pasta
dough perfectly. It is intended for the dough to be removed and
rested. Once rested the dough can either be rolled by hand or
placed through a pasta roller.
* Jams: The breadmaker is a great cooking environment for
homemade jams and chutneys. The paddle automatically keeps the
ingredients stirring through the process. The heating element is
placed in a way that the contents of the pot will not get burned.
Recipes are included in the Instruction Book.
* Bake-Only: This activates the breadmaker for bake function
only, and can be set in 10 minutes intervals up to 90 minutes.
You can use this setting if you want the finished loaf to have
darker crust or to bake store-purchased doughs.
* Rapid Bake: The rapid cycle must be used with a recipe using
rapid rise yeast, or the bread will not rise and bake properly.
* Delay Start Timer Buttons: Set the delay start timer.
* Start/Stop Button: Starts and stops the bread maker process
Handy Options
* Mix-Ins: During the last 8 minutes of the second kneading cycle
for several on selected programs an audible signal of 5 short
beeps will sound to remind you to add any additional ingredients
your recipe requires (such as nuts and , raisins and dried
fruits, shredded chesses, chocolate morsels).
* After Mixing/Kneading is completed there will be an audible
signal of 6 short beeps, before the last rise cycle, indicating
the point at which the mixing/kneading is complete. At this point
in the bread making process you have the option of removing the
kneading paddle, to avoid a small hole in the bottom of your
baked loaf, and/or re-shaping the dough, though neither is
necessary. After Breadmaking
There will be a series of 15 beeps to signal the end of the
baking cycle: the bread display window will read 00:00 and the
unit will be in the Warm Cycle. Your bread will be kept warm for
60 minutes to prevent it from becoming soggy. For optimal
results, we recommend removing the loaf as soon as the baking
cycle is complete and letting it cool on a baking rack. All
breads slice best when allowed to cool for a minimum of 30
minutes before slicing.
