Useful Tips

1. For the CAKE menu, Loaf Size is set to 1.5LB, and Crust Color is set to MEDIUM. They don't need to be changed, due to the characteristics of the ingredients for cakes.

2. Cake is not sensitive to temperature. Refrigerated eggs can be used directly.

3. Delay Timer is NOT available for this menu to avoid eggs being spoiled.

4. It's recommended to measure baking powder and baking soda by teaspoons; measure flour by weight (grams) instead of by cups. If measure flour by cups, please observe these FIVE precautions: (a) Use US Standard measuring cup or the provided cup (b) Don't use cup to scoop flour (c) Don't fill cup from flour sack (d) Use a big spoon to loosen flour well, scoop flour, then loosely fill the cup (e) Level off flour at the cup top using a dinner knife.

5. Always use oven mittens when removing the bread pan from the machine or removing the loaf from the pan.Please take out the bread pan right after the baking is done but don't take out the loaf from the pan yet; let the loaf sit inside the pan for 15 minutes and then take it out. Use a thin nonabrasive silicone or plastic spatulato carefully go around the sides of the loaf and then shake it out of the pan. If the kneading paddle comes out with the loaf, remove it using the provided paddle removal tool.

6. There is no need to slice the loaf until serving. Instead, when the loaf cools down completely, wrap it with aluminum foil and put it in the fridge. This will make the crust soft and the flavor stronger.

7. (OPTIONAL) You have the option to trim the batter and to add nuts / fruits at the ADD Beep and to remove the kneading paddle at the REMOVE Beep. For the CAKE menu, the ADD Beep is 15 minutes after the menu starts; the REMOVE Beep is 32 minutes. If you use a timer, set 14 minutes for the ADD Beep; 31 minutes for the REMOVE Beep.

8. CAKE is not sensitive to environment, and can be prepared more reliably. If you follow the above recipe and instructions carefully, you should expect a satisfactory result. If you encounter any problems, contact KitchenArm customer service
