CONVENIENT FUNCTION & USEFUL TIPS
Buzzer Sound
A buzzer sound will be given as:
- electricity is connected.
- Loaf, Color, Menu or Time Setup is pressed.
- switch “Start/Stop/Pause”.
- During kneading process, the buzzer sound is given continuously to remind you of adding material.
- The intermittent buzzer sound is given as “Keep Warm” is closed down.
15 minute memory-keeping
If an occasional electricity-disconnection happened and its duration is less than 15 minutes, re-connecting electricity would make bread maker continue to work and the time of working could be changed and not equal to the original time set before: Actual Working Time = Time of Disconnecting Electricity + Original Working Time Set Before.
Keep Warm
- After baking process is complete, the bread machine will shift to the Keep Warm setting for 1 hour.
- To cancel the Keep Warm process, press the START/STOP button for 3 seconds until a buzzer sound is given and then “Keep Warm” closes down.
TIP: Removing bread immediately after baking cycle is complete will prevent crust from becoming darker.
Tips: Bread Basics for Ingredients
Flour
- All-Purpose Flour
- Flour that contains no baking powder, suitable for “quick” breads or bread made with the Quick settings. Bread flour is better suited for yeast breads.
- Bread Flour
- Bread flour is the most important ingredient of making bread and is recommended in most yeast-bread recipes. It has a high gluten content and can keep the size of the bread from collapsing after rising. Flour varies by region. For example, American flour is milled from hard spring wheat; Canadian flour is milled from hard winter wheat.
- Self-Rising Flour
- Flour that contains baking powder, used especially for making cakes. Do not use self-rising flour in combination with yeast.
- Whole-Wheat Flour
- Whole-wheat flour is ground from the entire wheat kernel. Bread made with all or part whole-wheat flour will have higher fiber and nutritional content. Whole-wheat flour is heavier and, as a result, loaves may be smaller in size and have a heavier texture.
Yeast
Yeast is a living organism and should be kept in the refrigerator to remain fresh. It needs carbohydrates found in sugar and flour as nourishment. Yeast used in bread maker recipes will be sold under several different names: Bread machine yeast (preferred), active-dry yeast, and instant yeast. Before using, check the expiration date of the yeast. Return to refrigerator immediately after each use.
Sugar
Sugar is “food” for the yeast and also increases the sweet taste and color of bread. It is very important for the color and flavor of the bread. White sugar is normally used; however, brown sugar, powdered sugar, or cotton sugar may also be called for in some recipes. Do not substitute with powdered sugar, brown sugar or other artificial sweeteners unless indicated.
Salts
Salt in bread is NOT just a matter of taste! Salt restrains the growth of the yeast, and improves elasticity and structure. If you reduce or eliminate salt from the bread, it will rise excessively – if you use too much salt the loaf will not rise enough. Use common table salt.
Butter
Butter makes breads soft and glossy. Measured and cut into small pieces.
Water
When bread machine baking, all liquids, particularly water, should be 80°F (27°C) unless stated otherwise. Temperatures too cool or too warm can prevent the yeast from activa ting.
Milk
Whole, semi-skimmed or skimmed milk can be used in bread making but it should always be added lukewarm. Refrigerated milk must be heated to around 80ºF (27ºC). Never heat milk above 98ºF (37ºC) as this can cause problems with yeast.
Egg
Eggs can improve bread texture and make the bread larger in size. The egg must be whisked in with the other liquid ingredients.
Tips for successful baking
- Ingredients: Always use fresh ingredients.
- Measurements: Measure ingredients accurately. Bread and yeast are very delicate and will not rose and bake properly if the ingredients are measured inaccurately.
- Liquids First: Always place liquid ingredients in the baking
pan first to allow the Home Bakery to knead properly. - Room Temperature: If the room temperature is over 77℉(25℃), we recommend using refrigerated liquids. Flour should be fresh and at room temperature.
- Humidity: Humidity tends to make dough moister. Try adding an extra tablespoon of flour to improve the dough consistency. Repeat if necessary until the dough forms a nice ball.
- High Altitude: For baking in high altitudes, decrease the amount of yeast by approximately 1/2 teaspoon, and decrease the sugar slightly.
CLEANING & CARE
Regular maintenance of your appliance will keep it safe and in proper operational order. Before cleaning always disconnect the appliance from the mains supply.Wash removable parts in warm, soapy water then rinse and dry all parts. Allow the bread maker and all accessories to cool completely before disassembling and cleaning.
Cleaning the Stainless Steel Housing and Lid
- Wipe the exterior of the stainless steel housing and the LCD screen with a soft, damp cloth. A non-abrasive liquid cleanser or mild spray solution may be used to avoid build-up of stains. Apply the cleanser to the sponge, not the outer surface or LCD screen, before cleaning. Do not use a dry paper towel or cloth to clean the LCD screen, or use an abrasive cleanser or metal scouring pad to clean any part of the bread maker as these will scratch the surface.
NOTE:
Never immerse the stainless steel housing in water or place in the dishwasher. Take care not to allow water or cleaning fluids to seep under the buttons or LCD screen on the control panel.
- If over-spills such as flour, nuts, raisins etc. occur in the interior baking chamber, carefully remove them using a soft, damp cloth. Use extreme caution when cleaning the heating elements. Ensure the bread maker is completely cool then gently rub a soft, damp sponge or cloth along the length of the heating element. Do not use any type of cleanser or cleaning agent.
- Let all surfaces dry thoroughly prior to inserting the power plug into a power outlet.
Baking pan, Kneading paddle, Measuring Spoon and Measuring Cup
Wash with warm soapy water and rinse thoroughly, or clean in the upper rack of the dishwasher. Dry all parts after use. If you have trouble removing the kneading paddle from the bread pan, soak in warm water for 10 to 15 minutes – this will loosen the blade.
NOTE:
Do not use metal utensils with the baking pan as they will damage the nonstick surface.

TROUBLESHOOTING
If you experience difficulties when operating the bread maker, review the troubleshooting information in this section to find a solution. If you are unable to find a solution, please feel free to contact KBS Customer Service E-mail: [email protected] for additional help.
Ingredients
Can other bread recipes be made in this machine?
Results may vary when using other recipes as the recipes in this booklet are sized so that the dough is kneaded properly and the finished bread does not exceed the bread pan capacity. Use only recipes with similar quantities of ingredients. As a general guide, a minimum 2 cups and maximum 4.5 cups of total dry ingredients is recommended on the bread settings. On the jam setting, as a general guide, a maximum 3 cups of fruit should be used.
Can powdered products be used in place of fresh products and visa-versa?
Yes, egg powders, dried buttermilk or dry milk can be used. These products allow you to use the Delay Start feature, however always ensure to add the water to the bread pan first, then add the dried substitution after the flour to keep them separate. Similarly, fresh milk and eggs can be substituted for dry milk and egg powders, but the baked bread will have a heavier texture. If you still choose to use fresh milk, ensure to decrease the same measurement of liquid to equal the fresh milk and omit the milk powder. Do not use the Delay Start feature with perishable ingredients.
Can other sweetening agents be used in place of sugar?
Yes, honey, golden syrup or brown sugar can be used. When substituting honey or similar sweet liquids for sugar, ensure to decrease the same measurement of liquid to equal the liquid sugar substitute. We do not recommend powdered or liquid artificial sweeteners.
Can butter or margarine be used in place of oil?
Yes, but the bread crumb may appear a more creamy, yellow color.
Can salt be omitted?
Salt plays a very important part in bread making. Omitting it will decrease water retention in the dough, as well as affect mixing, the strength of the gluten development and the fermentation of the yeast. In the finished bread, salt improves the loaf shape, crumb structure and crust color, as well as extending shelf life and enhancing flavor.
Why do the ingredients need to be placed in the bread pan in the specified order?
To ensure all dry ingredients are mixed with the water and to avoid the yeast activating prematurely with the water, salt or sugar when using the Delay Start feature.
Baking Bread
Why did the bread not rise?
There may be several reasons. Check the protein level of the flour, we recommend flours with at least 11-12% protein. The yeast may have failed to activate so check the ‘Best Before Date’ of the yeast, the yeast measurements and the temperature of the liquids (80°F/27°C) and dry ingredients (68°F-77°F/20°C-25°C)..
What do I do if the bread rose too much?
Try using less yeast (1/4 teaspoon less at a time). This could also be the result of forgetting to add salt to the recipe or forgetting to put the kneading blade into the baking pan.
Why do large holes appear inside the bread?
Occasionally air bubbles will concentrate at a certain location during the last ‘rise’ phase and will bake in this state. This could be caused by too much water and/or yeast or insufficient flour. Check the recipe ingredients and method of weighing/measuring.
Why does the top of the bread collapse?
Usually this is because the ingredients are not in balance or low protein flour is used. Check the method of weighing/measuring the ingredients. Too much yeast, water or other liquid ingredients, or insufficient flour, may cause the bread to be pale on top and collapse while baking.
Why does the paddle come out with the bread?
This can happen as the paddle is detachable. Use a non-metal utensil to remove it from the baked loaf before slicing. Use caution as the paddle will be hot. Alternatively, you can remove the paddle before the start of the ‘bake’ phase.
Why is there smoke coming out of the bread maker?
It is normal that the bread maker emit a fine smoke during first use as it burns off the protective substances on the heating element. It is also normal that steam emit from the steam vents. However, smoke can also be caused by spilt ingredients on the outside of the bread pan and inside the baking chamber. Without turning off the bread maker, remove the plug from the power outlet. With a soft damp cloth (non-metallic, non-abrasive), clean then thoroughly dry the outside of the bread pan, baking chamber and heating element, using caution as they will be hot. Reinsert the power plug. The Power Failure Protection will automatically resume the cycle where it was interrupted.

FAQS
How do i get support from kbs? the recipes in the manual dont work and the fruit and nut dispenser won’t dispense. i am very frustrated with this!
This great Product has a really poor manual, KBS wcould have far fewer returned machines & unhappý buyers, if they put out a radically better manual. They leave out so much! The screen light is designed to dim so much buyers think its off. Manual should inform buyers it goes dim & explain why. If your machine isn’t quiet return it. Something is wrong. KBS is telling the truth. The machine is quiet & it does not move. We make rustic, dense 100% Whole wheat bread it is quiet. Motor is powerful.
We have seen much more expensive ones rhat are loud & move. Our daughter’s expensive Sunbeam walked off a counter & the plastic body cracked 1st use & its noisey like our 1st 1980s bread machine. We called it R2 D2 as it resembled the robot.
electric voltage %?
Most all household devices use 120v. The voltage of a machine does not give you more power.
Watts refer to the power of your device. More wattage gives more power.
A 120V, 650w machine will give you more power than a 120V, 550w machine.
Look for the wattage on your label. Probably near the voltage
Can you give more instructions for the yogurt setting? I don’t see very detailed instructions in the manual.
To make yogurt, first you must kill all bacteria. purchased a digital quick read thermometer. This makes the whole process so much easier because you can set the temperature alert to 180°F and the alarm will go off when it reaches that temperature. Then cool to about 100°F. Then add active plain yogurt as the starter. All a yogurt maker does is keep the milk warm as it ferments. I find 8 hrs good as to length to ferment. Then refrigerate. Keep container, jars, etc very clean or bad bacteria will ruin the yogurt. You can dissolve plain gelatin in a little hot water and add before heating to 180 °F to pasteurize to make a thicker yogurt. There are all kinds of free advice and recipes online just google “making yogurt”. Then add flavoring after the yogurt ferments. I just like simple wheat germ & honey. If sometimes just add generic aspartame only. Sugar free then.
Can someone tell me this machine is easy to clean?
There’s really no reason for it to ever get very dirty. Unplug the machine and then I have wiped out the inside with a damp cloth. All that ever gets inside the machine is maybe a bit of flour and some cooked bread crumbs. I’ve put 200 pounds of flour through my machine and it still looks clean inside. Everything should stay in the bread pan. Can’t put it into a dishwasher for sure.
What are the dimensions of the bread pan, especially the length?
Measuring the inside of the pan 6 3/4″ X 5″ X 5 1/4″(deep)
(about as everything has rounded edges)
Why are the baking temperatures so low?
our bread machine temperatures and times are preset and tested by us. You don’t have to worry about undercooking because the temperature is too low.
Is the coating sprayed onto the pan without plastics or glues? also, does it contain pfoa, pfas, lead or cadmium?
Read the product description – they make a big deal that it is a ceramic coating and free of all the bad stuff from the stuff you listed. It works really well and while I don’t worry about those chemicals much – I’m happy to avoid them too – an added bonus for me w this machine. HTH

Not by that name. There are 17 choices,9 of them bread, one is sugar free bread. And some of their choices have name a little unfamiliar to most in the US.
