new baker needing Instructions...
Lol everyone, I have been given a nearly new Argos value range bread maker, as my starter oven, but it has no instructions. Can anyone help me wiTh finding some, or does.someone have some They can copy and send me, please?
I am a complete novice and don't know where to start, let alone know which settings to use. Each recipe I seem.to find tells me to refer to manufacturers instructions, which I don't have.
Thanks in advancE.

Have you got a normal kitchen oven and a bit of time? If-so, then do it the old fashioned way :)
Start here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b01rgrk2/paul-hollywoods-bread-1-classic-bread
there are 1000's of online videos, guides, etc. but that's as good as any to get started with.
enjoy,

Looking for "argos value breadmaker manual" in google points to this... http://sarahceline.com/breadmaker.pdf but there is no guarantee it is for your model as many breadmakers have been sold under that label..
What are you using? If it's a bread machine, there are lots of recipes available around the www. I'd suggest starting with something pretty straightforward.
If it's an actual oven, there's probably an even wider range available. Again, I'd suggest KISS to begin with.
Hi Katie, A bread machine is an improvement over grocery store bread since you can control what is in the loaf. However, your machine will produce a definite "made in a machine" loaf in taste and texture. When in grade school, my kids delighted in setting up the bread machine at night so that they woke up to the smell of fresh bread. They also had fun making pitas, cinnamon rolls and bagels by hand, working with me. The only thing better than filling your home with the smell of baking bread is eating the fresh bread. TFL members can guide you in baking handmade loaves. It is not difficult or terribly time consuming….just a matter of learning the steps and fitting those adaptable steps into your day. Once you have made a beautiful loaf of bread with your own two hands, you will be "hooked." So my hope is that you find your directions, try the machine baking a few times, get curious about bread making, and end up passing that machine along to a friend. Happy baking! : )
