Let's play with some of the extra features!
Sticking with the extra soft loaf mode (No.2), I've decided to throw in some raisins. And learning from my previous mistakes, I've decreased the water from 190ml to 170ml.
I placed 100g of raisins in the top dispenser.
Once again, I took a peek to make sure the consistency of the dough was correct. 170ml of water was still too much!! In went another extra 1/4 cup of flour. Next time I will try only 160ml of water. Humid, humid weather!!
Timer on. 8am next morning...
Hey, not bad at all! It probably could have used less water or just a tad more flour, because the bread appears more dense on the bottom. But all in all, very happy with the result. The manual says that with added fruit/nuts, the rise of the bread can be affected. I wonder if more yeast will help? This loaf does seem more dense than a plain loaf. I think next time I will add just a tad more yeast, and I will change the 烤色 (crust?) option from standard to light.
Special thanks to my family who finished the entire loaf that same morning!! I feel so accomplished.
Cannot wait to make another loaf!
