Before First Use & Cleaning
1. Remove the drive shaft from the
mixing bowl.
2. Wash the parts as directed.
3. Dry the bowl thoroughly! Never place
a wet bowl back onto the mixer or
store in the locked position.
4. Replace the drive shaft into the bowl.
5. Wipe the front of the mixer with
a damp cloth only to protect the
eco-friendly printing. Do not use soap.
6. If needed, remove excess moisture
from the drive socket with a dry
cotton swab. Occasionally you may
lightly lubricate the socket with a
cotton swab dipped in mineral oil,
or other food grade oil, to remove
debris and prevent corrosion.
Before using, wash the mixing bowl,
lids, and mixing tools.
Some residual food-grade lubricant
may be present on certain parts of
your mixer. The food-grade lubricant
is applied during manufacturing to
ensure optimum performance of the
wire whips. We recommend running
the wire whips for several seconds
with the lubricant before cleaning.
Excess may be wiped clean.

Getting Started
1. Place the mixer on a clean, dry surface to ensure the suction feet grip
securely.
2. Gently pull the Power Cord (d) from the built in cord storage
compartment, and plug it in.
3. When using the High-Torque Drive (c), the Detachable Cover (a)
must be securely in place on the High Speed Drive (b); to operate
the motor.
4. The High-Torque Drive (c) powers the mixing bowl. Both drives (b&c)
power many other optional attachments that can be viewed in this
book.
5. Turning the Speed Control Knob (e) to the left “M” is a momentary
“pulse” position and provides full speed and power for the time it is
held in position. “0/off”, is the off position.
6. Turning the Speed Control Knob (e) to the right beginning with
Speed 1 the lowest speed. The speed increases with each setting
up to the highest speed, Speed 4. Start at the lowest speed and
gradually increase to higher speeds.
7. When using your Bosch®Mixer it is important to use the attachment
best equipped to handle the load. Throughout this book you will find
recipes for all the different attachments and how to best use them.

Baking Bread #LikeABosch
INGREDIENTS
TIPS & TRICKS
RISING
KNEADING
BAKING
We recommend instant yeast, this
may be added with dry ingredients
and does not need to be dissolved
in water. Store yeast in an airtight
container and refrigerate or freeze
to maintain freshness.
When a recipe calls for oil and
honey, put oil in measuring cup first
and then honey. This allows honey
to slide out more easily.
To test if dough has risen enough,
press finger lightly and quickly
into dough. If indentation springs
back, let rise additional time. If
indentation remains or comes back
slowly, dough has risen enough.
If bread cracks on the sides, it may
be that the dough has not risen
long enough or too much dough
has been put in the pan.
Start counting kneading time as
soon as you have added the last of
the flour.
It is always best to stop kneading
early, rather than to over knead.
Typical kneading time for bread is
5-8 minutes using Speed 2 or 3
depending on the batch size.
Using a meat thermometer is
extremely helpful in determining
when bread is done. Bread is done
when internal temperature is
190ºF-200ºF and the top is golden
brown.
When baking sweet bread or
braided filled breads, it may be
necessary to tent the top with foil
the last 5-10 minutes to avoid over
browning.

Bosch Mixer Bread Steps
1. Add ingredients to the bowl in this order: liquids
first, next ⁄ the recommended flour, and other
dry ingredients, (yeast on top). Pulse “M” switch
a few times. Mix on speed 2 until combined.
Optional: before continuing kneading let the
dough rest 15-30 minutes, until bubbly. (This will
enhance the flavor and texture).
2. Gradually add more flour until dough pulls from
sides and bottom of the bowl and forms a ball.
3. Knead dough 5-8 minutes, until smooth and
elastic, so a small piece can be gently stretched
to form a translucent “window,” without tearing.
4. Remove dough from the bowl and place it on a
lightly oiled surface (for whole wheat dough) or
a lightly floured surface (for white dough). Divide
into equal portions depending on pan size. Shape
as desired and place in greased pans. Dough
should fill the pan about half way.
5. Cover and let rise until doubled, 20-60 minutes,
depending on size and shape of dough and room
temperature. You may wish to double rise your
dough. This is best done by letting the dough rise
in the bowl with the cover on and then kneading
for 1 additional minute before shaping into loaves.
6. Bake until golden brown. Filled loaf breads such
as jalapeño cheese or cinnamon swirl typically
take up to 5 minutes longer to bake than
standard loaves.
