DOMO B3971 (01) PDF SUMMARY:

What should I do before using the bread maker for the first time?

Make sure all packaging materials and promotional stickers have been removed before using the appliance for the first time. Clean the bread maker, bread pan, and kneading paddle with a damp cloth. Remove the protective film from the display. It is recommended to first bake with an empty bread pan with the program BAKE for 10 minutes. Afterwards, let everything cool down and clean the parts again. Grease the non-stick coating of the loaf tin and the kneading paddle with a little butter or margarine before using for the first time.


What are the basic ingredients for a simple white bread?

The recipe for a loaf of simple white bread includes 630 g flour, 370 ml water, 5 g of dried yeast, 1 tsp salt, and 1 tbsp sugar.


What are the key factors for baking great bread?

Baking a great bread will largely depend on quality, freshness, and correct measurement of quantities. Never exceed the maximum capacity of your bread maker (1000 g).


What are the maximum quantities of ingredients for one baking session?

The maximum quantities are 715 g of flour, 22 g of fresh yeast or 4+1/4 teaspoons of dry yeast, and 460 ml of water.


Why is flour important in bread making?

Flour is the basic component of bread, and it is necessary to weigh the right quantity on a pair of scales.


What does gluten do for bread?

Gluten is a natural ingredient of flour and stimulates the bread to rise.


Why is yeast important in bread making?

Yeast converts sugars into alcohol and carbon dioxide, which allows the bread to rise and become lighter and easier to digest. Dry yeast is recommended because it is easier to work with, keeps for a longer time than fresh yeast, and generally gives a better result.


What role does salt play in making bread?

Salt lends the bread a certain flavor, regulates the activity of the yeast, strengthens the dough, and prevents the bread from rising too hard.


How do butter and oil affect bread?

Butter and oil improve the general taste of the bread and soften it. Butter or oil should both be at room temperature when you add them to the other ingredients.


Why is sugar important for bread making?

Sugar is the nutritional source for the yeast and is of great importance for the bread’s rising process. It lends the bread a certain soft and delicate flavor, increases its nutritional value, and also renders the bread less perishable.


What type of sugar should I avoid using when making cinnamon bread?

You should not use unrefined sugar or sugar lumps, when you want to make e.g. cinnamon bread, for they can damage the non-stick coating of the bread pan.


How does water affect bread rising?

When the flour mixes with the water, the gluten will form and air can no longer enter, thus enabling the bread to rise.


What type of water should I use to make bread?

At normal temperature you should use tepid water (± 20 à 25 °C) to make bread: cold water will not activate the yeast and warm water will achieve the opposite result.


How does milk affect bread?

Milk adds greatly to the color of the bread (brown for the crust, creamy on the inside), improves the overall taste of the bread and increases its nutritional value.


What should I do if I choose to use fresh milk?

Should you choose to use fresh milk, do not forget to reduce the amount of water, in order to maintain the right level of humidity.


When should I avoid using fresh milk?

Do not use fresh milk if you are going to choose the baking program with the time delay function, for the milk could turn sour.


What should I do when adding other ingredients to the bread?

Always use fresh ingredients. When you want to use nuts, sunflower seeds, dried fruit or similar ingredients, it is recommended that they be soaked in water and dried before adding them to the dough. Always ensure these ingredients are not too large, for they may damage the non-stick coating.


How do I select a baking program?

Use the ‘Menu’ button to select the desired baking program. With every touch of this button, you will hear a bleeping signal, thus indicating a change in the selected type. The selected program and the corresponding baking time will appear on the display.


How do I select the weight of the bread I wish to make?

Use the ‘Weight’ button to select the weight of the bread you wish to make, either 500, 750 or 1000 g.


How do I choose the crust color?

Use the ‘Color’ button to determine whether you want a light, medium or dark crust. For recipes you try out for the first time, it is advised to choose the medium crust color.


How do I select a delayed start and set the timer for certain programs?

You can select delayed start and set the timer for certain programs using the Time + and Time – buttons. You can adjust the program time for the other programs.


How do I use the Bake program?

If you do not resume a program within 3 minutes, the operation will automatically stop. To end a program, press the button for a few seconds until you hear a beep.


How do I use the Home made program?

Press the Home made button. See ‘Set up Home made’ under the Use section. Press start-pause/stop to confirm the program.


What is the Basic program for?

This is the program most commonly used to make a regular white loaf of bread.


What is the French program for?

With this type of baking program, the time to knead and to rise will be longer than this of the first program. The result is a crisper crust and a lighter texture.


What is the Whole wheat program for?

This program is most suitable for the confection of heavier types of bread, such as wholemeal bread or multi-grain bread. Generally, these types of bread tend to be slightly smaller than regular white bread, due to the bigger weight of the flour. It is best not to use the time delay function with this program, since the results might not be as good.


What is the Sweet program for?

This program is suitable for making raisin bread, sugar bread, chocolate bread, etc.


What is the Rice program for?

Use this program for a bread based on rice flour. After kneading, the dough can rise before being baked. The crust of a rice bread is thinner and softer than a normal bread.


What is the Gluten free program for?

This is the program for making gluten free bread. The dough of a gluten free bread is moister and has the consistency of a batter. Therefore, the dough should not be kneaded or allowed to rise for too long. The baking time, on the other hand, is longer. It is better not to use delayed programming with this program, as this can lead to results that are not as good. It is best to add all the ingredients at the beginning.


What is the Quick program for?

For kneading, rising and baking bread with baking soda or baking powder. The result usually is a smaller bread with a denser texture. It is recommended that you briefly stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon before you press start.


What is the Fruit program for?

Use the dispenser to add ingredients such as raisins or other dried fruits. The machine will add the ingredients itself from the dispenser at the right time. If you would like to add fresh or juicier fruit to your bread, it is best to do so directly in the loaf tin when you hear a beep.


What is the Cake program for?

This program allows you to make bread that is confected with e.g. baking powder. With this type of baking program, your loaf of bread will be less high and more solid. If you use this program to bake a cake, it is recommended that you put the ingredients in the bread pan, program the bread maker and briefly stir the ingredients with a wooden spoon before pressing the ‘start-pauze/stop‘ button. You can’t choose the weight yourself if using this program.


What is the Sandwich program for?

Select this program to make a very light white dough suitable for e.g. little bread rolls. Please note! With this program you cannot set a crust color, the machine will do so itself.


What is the Raisin/nut bread program for?

Use the dispenser to add ingredients such as raisins or nuts. The machine will add the ingredients itself from the dispenser at the right time.


What is the Rye program for?

This program is ideal for loaves with a heavier variety of grain such as rye. The bread itself is also firmer and heavier than normal bread.


What is the Knead program for?

The machine will only knead the dough during this program; it won’t bake it or let it rise. You can use this program to knead pizza dough, for example. You can adjust the operation time using the Time + and Time – buttons.


What is the Dough program for?

You can only have the machine knead the dough and let it rise with this program.


What is the Brioche program for?

This program is suitable for breads with additional ingredients that have a high sugar, fat, and protein content (e.g. chocolate, sugar, etc.). These ingredients create a darker crust. The rising program phase will take more time, giving you a light and airy result.


What is the Bake program for?

For ready-made dough which you perhaps had already made in advance. This program can only be used for the final stage of the baking process. Program 12 also allows you to reheat bread that you had already baked.


What is the Home made program for?

This button can be programmed with your personalised time settings.


What is the Italian program for?

Make a tasty Mediterranean bread with this program. You can add additional ingredients such as herbs, sun-dried tomatoes, olives, etc.


How do I take the bread pan out of the bread maker?

Take the bread pan out of the bread maker, by turning it a quarter of a turn to the right. You can lift the bread pan out, straight up, by pulling the handle.


How do I place the kneading paddle in the bread pan?

Place the kneading paddle on the axis in the bread pan. Please position the kneading paddle carefully and appropriately, so all ingredients can be sufficiently mixed and kneaded.


In what order should I put the ingredients into the bread pan?

When putting the ingredients into the bread pan, please do so in the following manner and order: Water / milk, Butter / oil, Eggs (optional), Salt (salt on one side), Sugar (put the sugar on the opposite side), Flour, Yeast (concentrate the yeast in a little hole in the middle). Make sure the yeast is kept away from the sugar, salt and water, for the yeast might be activated before all ingredients have been properly blended and kneaded.


What should I do with additional ingredients?

Additional ingredients, such as nuts, herbs, dried fruits, etc., can be added to the dispenser or can be added afterwards.


What should I do before putting the bread pan back in the bread maker?

Remove all remnants of the ingredients on the outside of the bread pan. Put the bread pan back in the bread maker. Turn the bread pan clockwise so it locks into place.


How do I start the bread making process?

Close the lid. Plug in the appliance. Select the program you require, using the ‘menu’ button. Each input is confirmed by a bleeping signal. Set the color of the crust using the Color button. You can choose between light, medium, or dark. Set the size of the bread (500 g, 750 g, or 1000 g) with the Weight button. Program the time delay function, if so desired. Press the ‘start-pauze/stop’ button. The colon will start flashing, which indicates the bread maker has started the process.


What happens if I programmed the time delay function?

When you have programmed the time delay function, the program will start after the programmed time delay has expired.


How do I know when the bread is ready?

The machine will beep when the bread is ready. The display shows 0:00. Press and hold start-pause/ stop for a few seconds. The machine will beep again to confirm that you have stopped the program.


What happens if I do not stop the bread maker after the bread is ready?

If you do not stop the program with this button, the bread will be kept warm for another 60 minutes thanks to the warming function.


How do I remove the bread from the bread maker after it is done?

Remove the plug from the socket and open the machine lid. Remove the loaf tin using oven mitts. Allow the bread to cool down for approximately 10 minutes. Turn the bread pan upside down above the sink and gently shake it to remove the bread. Please make sure the bread and the bread pan are never placed on the exterior of the appliance. Nor must they ever be placed directly on a plastic table-cloth.


What should I do if I have difficulty removing the bread from the bread pan?

Should you have difficulty removing the bread from the bread pan, carefully turn the kneading paddle at the bottom of the bread pan until the bread comes loose. Never use sharp objects to remove the bread so as not to damage the non-stick coating of the loaf tin.


What should I do if a kneading paddle should get stuck in the bread?

If a kneading paddle should get stuck in the bread, try and remove it as gently as you can. If necessary, you can allow the bread to cool down a little more so you can remove the kneading paddle with your hands afterwards. Beware that you only touch the kneading paddle with your hands if it has sufficiently cooled down.


How long should I wait before cutting the bread?

It is recommended that you wait 15 to 20 minutes before cutting the bread.


What is the warming function?

In case you should not make it home in time, the bread maker will continue to heat the bread for another 60 minutes. This additional time is not included in the program time.


How do I interrupt the warming function?

Press the ‘start-pauze/stop’ button for a few seconds, if you want to interrupt this part of the process.


What happens if I leave the bread in the bread maker for more than an hour?

If you leave the bread in the bread maker for more than an hour, it will become moist. Rinse the bread pan immediately with warm water, after you’ve taken out the bread, to make sure the kneading paddles don’t keep stuck to the axle. Do not activate the bread maker, if the appliance hasn’t cooled down or warmed up yet.


How do I add additional ingredients during the kneading process?

During the kneading process of the following programs, there will be a beep after kneading: Normal, French, Whole Wheat, Sweet, Rice, Gluten free, Fast, Fruit, Cake, Raisins/Nuts, Rye, Brioche, Italian. This beep indicates that you can add additional ingredients such as raisins, nuts, seeds, etc. You can add the ingredients through the dispenser or manually.


How do I use the dispenser to add additional ingredients?

Open the dispenser by sliding the lid to the left. Add the ingredients. Close the lid. The ingredients in the dispenser will automatically be added to the bread after kneading and rising.


What are the cautions of using the dispenser?

Do not add moist, liquid, or powdered ingredients through the dispenser. Never overfill the dispenser. It is best to chop large nuts into finer pieces before adding them to the dispenser. Before adding ingredients to the dispenser, make sure that the valve on the inside of the appliance is closed.


How do I manually add additional ingredients?

You can also add ingredients manually. When you hear the beep, pause the program, open the lid, add the additional ingredients, then close the lid and press the start button again. This manual method is best used for moist, runny, or powdered ingredients or larger quantities.


What is the memory function?

If the appliance fails due to a power failure, the memory function will work for 10 minutes. This way, you do not have to restart the program when the power is back. If the outage lasts longer than 10 minutes, the program will be cancelled.


How do I set the Home made program?

Press the Home made button or select program 17 using the Menu button. Press the Home made button again to start programming. The time and the program phase icon will flash on the display. Set the desired time for each phase using the Time + (increase time) and Time – (decrease time) buttons. Confirm the selected time by pressing the Home made button.

You can then start the set program by pressing the Start button. If you press the start button while setting the phases, the programming will stop early.


Can I have the Home made program start delayed?

If desired, you can also have this program start delayed; see ‘Delayed programming’.


How do I remove the kneading paddle before baking?

Shortly press the ‘start-pauze/stop’ button to interrupt the baking process or disconnect the plug from the power socket. Open the lid and take out the bread pan. Take out the dough with floured hands and remove the kneading paddle. Place the dough back in the bread pan and close the lid. Insert the plug into the power socket and press the ‘start-pauze/stop’ button. The program will be continued.


How do I use the time delay function?

You can program the machine so that the preparation will be completed at a time of your choice. Calculate the time difference between the time you start the program and the time you want the preparation to be ready. The bread maker will automatically add the duration of the program cycles to this. By pressing the keys, the time will increase or decrease by 10 minutes at a time. You will see the hourglass icon on the display.


Can I use the time delay function with kneading and baking?

Delayed programming is not possible with kneading and baking. The program time will be adjusted if you press the Time + and Time – buttons with these programs.


Can I use ingredients that have a limited shelf life with the time delay function?

Do not use the timer program if you are using ingredients that have a limited shelf life, such as fresh milk, eggs, yoghurt, cheese and fresh fruit.


What should I make sure of when using ingredients?

Please make sure your ingredients are at room temperature and that they are carefully weighed.


How can I verify the freshness of my yeast?

You can verify the freshness of your yeast by submitting it to the following test: dissolve 1 teaspoonful of sugar in half a cup of lukewarm water and subsequently add the yeast to this mixture. If the substance starts bubbling and boiling after a few minutes, you can be sure that you are using fresh yeast.


What happens if I am not allowed to use either sugar or salt for dietary reasons?

If you are not allowed to use either sugar or salt for dietary reasons, you must not add the other ingredient either. Your bread will not contain sugar or salt.


How long does home-made bread last?

Home-made bread, made with this bread maker, does not contain any preservatives and is therefore perishable. If you wrap the bread in a vacuum package after cooling down, you will be able to keep it for a few days. Of course you can also freeze the bread.


How can I ensure that the kneading paddle comes off easier?

Grease the axle in the loaf tin with a little butter to ensure that the kneading paddle comes off easier.


What should I do before cleaning the bread maker?

Before cleaning your bread maker, please make sure it’s no longer activated, it has sufficiently cooled down and the plug has been disconnected from the power socket.


How often should I clean the appliance?

Clean the appliance thoroughly after each use. If the loaf tin, axle in the loaf tin, and kneading paddle are not clean before use, this may affect the operation and service life of the bread maker.


What should I do after cleaning the appliance?

Thoroughly dry the appliance and all parts. Leave the lid open for half an hour so that all parts are sufficiently dry before storage or reuse.


Can I submerge the appliance in water?

Never submerge the appliance in water.


How do I clean the exterior of the bread maker?

Clean the outside of the appliance and the lid with a damp cloth or sponge. Take out the bread pan before you start cleaning. If necessary, you can clean the outside of the appliance using a mild detergent.


How do I clean the inside of the bread maker?

The inside of the device can be carefully cleaned with a slightly damp cloth. Be careful when cleaning the heater element.


How do I clean the loaf tin?

Remove the loaf tin from the machine by turning it a quarter turn counter-clockwise using the handle and lifting straight up. The loaf tin can be cleaned with warm water. Make sure that you do not damage the non-stick coating. If it is not possible to remove the dough hook from the loaf tin, let the tin cool completely. Pour a little warm water into the loaf tin so that the dough hook is under water. The water will now ensure that the sticky particles dissolve and the dough hook can be removed. Do not use detergents or washing up brushes as they can damage the non-stick coating of the loaf tin. The loaf tin is not suitable for cleaning in the dishwasher.


What should I do if I am not getting the desired result?

The composition of the dough is very important to achieve a good result. Also, different brands of flour can give different results. The best way to learn to use the device is to use it. It is recommended that you try the basic recipe. A ready-made bread mix is another great way to get started.


What can I check to make sure I am getting the desired results?

Make sure that the ingredients have not been accurately weighed. Also make sure that the ingredients are not fresh and the ingredients are not at room temperature.


Can I check whether the dough is working during the process?

The dough should look like a smooth, elastic round ball. After 5 to 10 minutes (during kneading), open the lid and touch the top of the dough ball with your fingers. The dough should stick to your fingers a little. If the dough is too sticky, it is too moist and you need to add some flour. If the dough does not stick at all, it is too dry and you need to add a little water. Do not open the lid while rising. This could cause the bread to collapse.


How long should I allow the appliance to cool if I want to bake several loaves of bread one after the other?

Allow the appliance to cool for 20 minutes with the lid open. A heated device will cause the yeast to start working too quickly, which will harm the result.


What does it mean if the bread has collapsed?

If the bread seems to have collapsed on all sides, this means that the dough was too moist. Try adding a little less water. When using preserved fruit or vegetables, drain it well and rub dry before using. It has been soaked for a long time, meaning it will contain excess moisture. You can try using a lighter flour variety. It may also have risen too much. The dough has risen so much that it cannot cope with the rising. Try to add a little less yeast (1 to 2 grams). If the dough has risen too fast, it may have risen out of the loaf tin at the top. Unplug the device and let it cool off. Then clean the heating element.


What does it mean if the inside of the loaf is not ready?

If the bread is too soft in the middle, this may be due to the type of flour used. This is usually the result of using heavier flours, such as rye flour or wholemeal flour. Try using one more kneading process when using these types of flours. When the bread maker has finished the first kneading process, stop the machine. Then reset the unit and press Start. The machine will start kneading again; there will now be a larger amount of air in the dough.


What does it mean if the bottom of the bread is too thick?

You left the bread in the appliance a bit longer with the warming function on. The water will evaporate, giving you a thicker bottom. Remove the bread from the appliance immediately after the program.


What does it mean if the bread has overflowed?

You used too much yeast. The yeast has been too strongly activated, e.g. by too much sugar or too high a temperature. You used too much dough. Do not use more than 1000 g.


What does it mean if H:HH appears on the display?

The unit is still too hot. Allow the appliance to cool first.


What does it mean if E:EO appears on the display?

There is a problem with the temperature sensor. Send the device to our after-sales service.


Why can’t I add extra ingredients at the start of the program?

The extra ingredients (such as currants or nuts), will be kneaded to pieces and the bread will not be kneaded properly. It will also affect the rising. Only add the extra ingredients once the appliance beeps, after kneading/ rising.


Can I use milk instead of water?

Yes! Always make sure that the complete volume of moisture is correct. The ratio of milk and water makes no difference.


Why is the crust sometimes lighter and sometimes darker?

These can be selected with the ‘Color’ button. Preparations with more sugar will also make the crust darker.


Why is the bread machine kneading slower than normal?

This can happen with heavy flours, causing the engine to work harder. However, this is not a problem for the machine. Add a tablespoon of liquid.


What should I do if the kneading paddle is stuck in the baking mould?

Remove the bread from the mould. Fill the mould with warm water and leave to soak for 15 minutes. The stuck dough will come loose.


Why is there condensation on the inside of the inspection window?

This is normal. This is due to the heat.


What should I do if I used a ready-made mix, but the bread still came out wrong?

Before sending the device in for repair, we recommend that you try the basic recipe again. Ready-made mixes can sometimes also contain ingredients that produce poor results.
