KBS MBF-013 17-In-1 Bread Maker Machine-FAQs
How do I stop or reset the KBS bread machine?
To stop the bread-making cycle, press and hold the Start/Stop button for at least 2 seconds. This will cancel the process and allow you to reset or choose a new program.
How many watts does the KBS bread maker use?
Bread makers typically use between 500 to 1000 watts of power. Higher wattage is useful for baking larger or denser loaves.
Is the KBS bread pan dishwasher safe?
Yes, the ceramic nonstick pan is dishwasher safe, BPA- and PFOA-free, and FDA approved, making it safe and easy to clean.
Why does the bread machine pause before kneading?
The initial rest period allows the ingredients to reach the right temperature—especially important if your flour or yeast is cold. After this, kneading will begin.
When should I remove the mixing paddle?
Remove the paddle after the final mixing cycle, but before the baking stage begins. This prevents the paddle from getting baked into the loaf.
Is the KBS bread machine a good product?
Yes, the KBS bread machine is highly rated for ease of use, versatility (17 settings), and consistent baking results—even for beginners.
Should I proof active dry yeast before using it?
Yes, it’s best to dissolve active dry yeast in warm water with sugar before adding it to the machine. This activates the yeast and ensures better rising.
What type of yeast is best for bread machines?
Instant yeast (also called rapid-rise or quick-rise yeast) is ideal for bread machines because it activates faster and mixes well with dry ingredients.
