Adjust the temperature, then - next fermentation, degassing, and shaping fermentation.

The bread is baked at the set time by automatically performing each step of baking according to the program 9.

Also, to explain the measuring spoon 72, one measuring spoon 72 can measure the volume of sugar, powdered milk, yeast, and salt, which are ingredients for bread making, and since the measuring spoon 72 is the same no matter who is measuring, there may be variations in measurement. It is small in size and therefore consistently produces high-quality bread. What's more, even though yeast is a small amount of bread-making ingredients, it can cause the bread to rise with slight variations.
Although it has a big impact on odor, fineness, etc., currently commercially available dry yeast is in granular form and has a stable specific gravity, with small lot variations, and when measured by volume using a small measuring spoon T3, it is within ±10%. You can measure the weight and get more stable and high quality bread. Furthermore, by suppressing the growth of bacteria that affect the fermentation power of the yeast and also affecting the taste, by measuring a small amount of salt with the same small measuring spoon 73 as the yeast, the fermentation power of the yeast is always stable, and You can obtain high-quality bread with a stable taste.

Since the large measuring spoon 4 is used for two cups of sugar and one cup of skim milk, the measuring spoon 72 is compact. Further, the bread making time and temperature are programmed so that the bread ingredients measured with the measuring spoon 72 can be used to make high quality bread.

Effects of the Invention As is clear from the description of the above embodiments, according to the present invention,
