Toasting is a combination of drying and cooking the bread. Therefore,
differences in denseness and moisture level from one bread to another can
result in varying toasting times.
For slightly dry bread or thinly sliced bread, use a lighter setting than you
normally would, as it will toast more quickly.
For very fresh bread, thickly sliced bread or whole wheat bread, use a
darker setting than normal. Dense, moist bread may also require a darker
setting.
Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English muffins) will require a
darker toast setting.
Thickly cut pieces of bread will take longer, since more moisture must be
evaporated from the bread before toasting occurs. Very thick pieces may
require two cycles.
