Toasting notes
Toasting is a combination of cooking and drying the bread,
Moisture levels differ from one bread to another, which can
result in varying toasting times.
• For slightly dry bread, use a lower light/dark setting than
normal.
• For fresh bread or whole wheat, use a higher setting than
normal.
• Breads with very uneven surfaces (such as English
muffins) will require a higher light/dark setting.
• Thickly cut pieces of bread (including bagels) will take
longer to toast, sometimes significantly longer, since more
moisture must be evaporated from the bread before
toasting can occur.
• Very thick pieces may require two cycles.
• When toasting raisin or other fruit breads, remove any
loose raisins from the surface of the bread before placing
into the toaster. This will help prevent pieces from falling
into the toaster or sticking on the guard wire in the slot.
• Before toasting bagels, slice each bagel into two equal
halves.
• Single slice toasting: If you are toasting as single slice of
bread, set the light/dark selector lighter than normal. The
toaster is designed to heat the whole toasting chamber for
two slices. By reducing the toasting time for a single slice it
will not be over toasted.
• Frozen breads: Frozen waffles, pancakes, French toast
and frozen bagels should be warmed using the defrost
button.
• Pastries: Exercise caution when toasting pastries. The
filling can become quite hot long before the surface of the
pastry becomes brown.
