the bread to rise. At normal temperature you should use tepid water to make bread:
cold water will not activate the yeast and warm water will achieve the opposite result.
Milk
Milk adds greatly to the colour of the bread (brown for the crust, creamy on the inside), improves
the overall taste of the bread and increases its nutritional value. 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.
CAREFUL: 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.
Other ingredients
In some cookery books you may come across recipes requiring the use of herbs, nuts, currants, fruit
or vegetables. Always use fresh ingredients. When you want to use nuts, sunflower seeds, dried fruit
or similar ingredients, we recommend 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.
