just got a MR bread maker ,not a clue what to do with it!

Peakma

Hi all ,I bought a bread maker for £2. on the car boot sale today.It came with no instructions,and the seller didn't know how to use it as her mother-in -law had passed it onto her.
I have never used a bread maker,so have no idea of recipes or quantities.The machine itself looks like it should be fairly simple once I get the hang of it.
It is the same as this one on ebay;http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/MORPHY-RICHARDS-BREADMAKER_W0QQitemZ280152986783QQcmdZViewItem
So if anyone can give me an idea of what to with it that would be great,or knows where I can download the relevant manual.I'm guessing the tin is safe to put in the dishwasher ?
Thanks,looking forward to knowing how to use to perfection,and waking to the smell of warm fresh bread on winter morns..mmm..

Hi Peakma
There are a number of bread recipe books you can either buy {or get from your libary} but the operators manual can be got from MR I do not know the price but if you put your machine name in search engine there is a telephone number to ring to get it.
We have been using a bread maker for the last few years and would NOT go back to shop bought !! it's lovely}
Hope this is of some use

£2? Bargain!! happy baking. My cup for the MR is about 10cm high and 8cm across.

You could always by bread mixes just to get started (instructions on packet and use programme 1)we love the sundried tomato bread by Wrights. (only if we're feeling flush though)

The cup volume is 240 mil, so you can use any measuring jug and just put your dry ingredients in to that level.

(Cup sets are quite cheap to buy and are available in the kitchen section of most main line supermarkets)

How cool!!!!!, well you have saved yourself a packet already, if you borrow a breadmaker book from the library you wont need the scoop, those receipes are in ounces and grams, welcom to the world of home made bread!!!!:D
