Check the protein level of the flour. We recommend flours with at least 11-12% protein for your Breville Bread Maker.
Can I use honey instead of sugar in my Breville Bread Maker?
Yes, honey, golden syrup, or brown sugar can be used in your Breville Bread Maker. When substituting honey or similar sweet liquids for sugar, ensure to decrease the same measurement of liquid to equal the liquid sugar substitute.
Can I use powdered milk instead of fresh milk in my Breville the Custom Loaf BBM800 Bread Maker?
Yes, egg powders, dried buttermilk, or dry milk can be used in your Breville Bread Maker. 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 I use home-ground flour in my Breville the Custom Loaf BBM800 Bread Maker?
Depending on the coarseness of the flour, results may not be satisfactory in your Breville Bread Maker. For best results, we recommend using a blend of bread flour and home-milled flour.
Why is it important to put ingredients in a specific order in my Breville the Custom Loaf BBM800?
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 on your Breville Bread Maker.
Are water and room temperatures important for my Breville the Custom Loaf BBM800 Bread Maker?
Yes – room and water temperature influences yeast activity and therefore can affect the quality of the bread made in your Breville Bread Maker.
