Storing bread
After cooling, it is best to wrap home-made
bread in a tea towel. This will keep the crust
nice and crisp. Special paper bread bags are
also suitable. The bread will become soft if it
is kept in a plastic bag or in the refrigerator.
Freezing bread
Home-made bread can be frozen after it has
cooled down. It is useful to freeze it in daily
portions.
It is best to defrost the bread at room
temperature, because a microwave dris the
bread out too quickly.
Although the bread can be frozen, it always
has a negative effect on the quality.
Darker bread
One tablespoon of cacao powder can be
added to the flour to give bread a darker
colour. This has almost no influence on the
flavour.
Crispier crust
To achieve a crispier crust, you can leave
the bread in the machine for ten to fifteen
minutes during the keep-warm phase.
If the bread rises out of the baking tin
You can watch the rising process through
the viewing window. Normally, it is not a
good idea to open the lid during the rising
process, because this can cause the bread
to sink, but if the dough rises out of the
baking tin and sticks against the viewing
window (this can also happen during
baking), then open the lid briefly. The dough
will then sink slightly.
Small, compact bread
Too much liquid produces a small, flat bread.
The dough is not able to rise properly, because it is too wet. The yeast may also
have been too old.
Dry bread
Too little liquid produces bread which is too
dry. Try using (slightly) more water or milk. If
the bread is good after baking, but then
dries out quickly, add more oil or butter.

Sunken bread
If your bread rises fine, but sinks during
baking, try baking it using the shortest
program (Basic). In general, longer
programs increase the chance of the bread
sinking during baking.
Finally
After reading all of this information, you
should, in theory, be able to come up with
your own favourite recipes. All that is left is
the practice. It may not be so easy, though,
because baking bread is a skill that you
cannot learn in just one day. The search for
the perfect bread can have a lot of setbacks.
Do not be disappointed if you have trouble
at first. Ask other home bakers about their
experiences, take time to read about the
subject, look things up on the Internet and,
most importantly, keep experimenting,
because the possibilities are endless. After
all, home-made bread is the tastiest.
