    If anyone has one, could he/she send me the numbers for each setting? The manual doesnt have these. I vve been looking for a picture at least but Google has failed me!

    Thanks for trying but the graphic doesnt give the menu "courses". I can read 1 which is "white" and 10 which is "pizza dough" but that s it.

  • Lance Hill Dec 18, 2011

    On page 8 of the same manual is a listing of the programmed bread/dough courses including these for French Bread:

    37. French Bread Light (1 lb)
    38. French Bread Light (1.5 lb)
    39. French Bread Light (2 lb)
    40. French Bread Medium (1 lb)
    41. French Bread Medium (1.5 lb)
    42. French Bread Medium (2 lb)
    43. French Bread Dark (1 lb)
    44. French Bread Dark (1.5 lb)
    45. French Bread Dark (2 lb)
    46. French Bread Rapid Light (1 lb)
    47. French Bread Rapid Light (1.5 lb)
    48. French Bread Rapid Light (2 lb)
    49. French Bread Rapid Medium (1 lb)
    50. French Bread Rapid Medium (1.5 lb)
    51. French Bread Rapid Medium (2 lb)
    52. French Bread Rapid Dark (1 lb)
    53. French Bread Rapid Dark (1.5 lb)
    54. French Bread Rapid Dark (2 lb)

    The chart on page 12, unfortunately not numbered, does explain the cycles for each of the courses.

    Lance, you are great! I think you have the right direction. I still wish the manual made this clear but now I ( hope) can see that 1= white, 2= whole wheat, 3= french etc. Many thanks!! Do wish the numbers lasted longer or that there were a code somewhere in the manual! Attention B&D? The bread has been great so far.

The person who posted the question raised the one main problem with the Black and Deck B2500C Bread Machine, lol. The 1 to 11 menu that is printed on white in the machine in very cheap printing and will not stand up to being cleaned and dusted even gently over time. AND just to make you nuts, that menu is not reproduced in the manual, so you are SOL. (There's a really bizarre menu instead in the booklet that goes up to 88 and has nothing to do with anything you see.)

I managed to find a picture of the top of the machine online, and transcribed the menu. Here it is for anyone else:

1. White / Blanc
2. Whole Wheat / Ble Entier
3. French / Francais
4. Fruit & Nut / Fruit et noix
5. Low Carb / Pain faible en glucides
6. Gluten Free / Sans Gluten
7. Batter Breads / Pain a la farine de mais
8. Jam / A la confiture
9. Dough / Pate
10. Pizza Dough / Pate a Pizza
11. Bake Only / Cuisson Seulement

The Use and Care Manaual for the Black & Decker B2500V Breadmaker has a graphic of the control panel on page 4 of the PDF file.

You are able to download the manual here:

    Lance, I own the physical machine in question and can tell you that while the graphic of the control panel on page 6 in that PDF is accurate, the table interpreting it up to number 88 on pages 8 & 9 has nothing to with the menu actually on the machine or pictured on page 6. What the 1 to 11 stands for is as I transcribed it above. Just wanted to clarify for people that no, it ain't you losing your mind, lol.... Cheers! :}

  • Randal Oulton

    The bizarre table following that control panel graphic has nothing to do with the text that was originally on the machine, which I actually physically own and have in front of me as I type this. The text that was originally on the machine is as per my transcription above -- just wanted to clarify. Cheers!

Trying to make French bread in my toastmaster bread and butter maker. Bread rose, doesn't bake. Machine is flashing 000

If you pushed the button for "French" bread then you do have a problem. If you pushed the "Dough" buttton then the flashing0:00 just means your dough is ready.

Bread machine model TR520, mixes the dough, stops for a long time, then starts mixing the dough again continuously without starting the bake cycle. This was on the french program. The machine is new...

By continuously do you mean forever, non-stop kneading? I'm guessing not. French bread is really nothing more than white bread dough kneaded for an extra long time. The extra kneading creates the chewyness common to French breads.

Hope this helps!

I set the menu for whole wheat bread, however, recipe states whole wheat bread rapid. I've tried to unplug (before it has done anything) and reset, but it will not let me. It just goes back to the prior...

push the stop button until your machine beeps, then unplug it and plug it back in. push select and push it again and again and you will get more confident as you see it go through the choices such as basic, whole wheat, french etc...... you will get more confident about how to choose. Once you feel you have the right program leave it there and then choose things such as the crust color you want and the LOAF SIZE once you feel you have the right settings say....whole wheat, light crust, 1.5 pound loaf.......then....push start and the fun will begin....

Every bread ive made is a flop, i followed the recipes to the letter.

A few tips to help.
1. Try a new packet of yeast as it goes stale very quickly. Sachets are better than packets if you are not making big quantities.
2. Use only strong bread flour, canadian is best. Never all purpose.
3. Keep yeast well away from the fats and liquids in the pan.
4. Fast rise will produce a less risen bread than the full program.
5. Never open the lid once the kneading has finished.
6. I weigh my water rather than use a measuring cup as I find this more exact. You may be adding too much water, a quick peep when kneading is going on will tell you. If it is sticking in a nice soft ball then liquid is right. Slopping about means too much liquid.

Open lid immediately machine beeps.

I don't know how long the cycle is before I add fruit to bread

The Regal Kitchen Pro instructions are as follows:
Basic, add at 40 minutes past start time.
Rapid, 25 minutes
French 75 minutes
Whole Wheat 50 minutes
Sweet and Quick Bread show just a dash - on the chart.

If you press the menu button until the number 4 is showing, that is the sandwich setting for your bread machine.
