Happy Mama:
Oh I see. I bought the yeast from PH, those small sachets in a box. I thought it's fresher this way as I have no confidence of buying the entire packet and transfering them into containers (afraid it will lose potency along the way)... and this time, I keep them in the fridge.
I am asking this cause some one dont remember who said some kinda yeast whether it was instant or dry one need to mix with water.. hence my question.. must do it properly lah 1st time so to impress DHLKVM:

LKVM, the machine comes with a recipe book. So all you need to do is follow and dump in the ingredients in the sequence and press START. In 3.5hours time, you will get warm fresh home-made loaf.
Easy peasy!!
As for the yeast, you put them last. But you need to \"dig\" a hole and place the yeast there. They said salt cannot come in contact with yeast, so I spread my salt around the 4 corners... Oh yes, very important, yeast cannot touch water!
All the best to you, LKVM! :celebrate: :celebrate:[/quote]Which brand yeast do you get from PH? I only saw the brown french one, a blue one and a red one. These are all instant right? Not rapid risiing? -
Happy Mama:
Cranberry loaf will be ready in 1 hour's time. Smells good. I cannot wait for it to be ready. Yumm yumm! This time I can slice it professionally with my new knife (provided I've got the skills). The lady at Taka told me slicing bread needs θ½»ε·₯.
The kai knife is VERY sharp. Just slice it lightly. Too heavy handed and your loaf will become like ham chin bang. -
Happy Mama:
:? :? Wondering if I should bake Butter Cake or Chocolate Cake using my Z machine, once Cranberry loaf is ready??
You're on baking overdrive! -
Happy Mama:
The Z recipe says All Purpose Flour, but PH does not have it, so I will be using Cake Flour instead. Hope it will not affect the results. Another this is, recipe mentions 2 LARGE eggs, but my eggs are quite small. Not sure if I should use 3 SMALL eggs, or stick to 2 SMALL eggs. :?[/quote]I think stick to two small better than 3 big.
Ok I shall attempt butter cake then! :celebrate: In the meantime, still waiting for my loaf to be ready.Happy Mama:

My Cranberry Loaf.... Yummy!! Thanks to jtoh for her knife recommendation. At last I managed to slice my bread more professionally... but I only managed to slice into 6 slices as I have not acquired the slicing skills yet...
In the first picture, notice how high my loaf has risen...

LKVM:
Another thing I notice Happy Mama is that this time your Cranberries have spread quite even what did you do? :?
I did the same as I did with my raisins the first time round i.e. pour them evenly distributed, but maybe because cranberries are lighter, so they even out nicely.
I tried putting raisins at one spot during my 2nd raisin loaf but it didn't work for me. The raisins all went to the sides of the bread i.e. top and sides, so all got burnt.
