Does not knead - Black & Decker B2300 Bread Machine

There could be a number of reasons why your ABM 100-3 bread maker isn't beeping and won't go past the initial kneading stage.
You might try the following steps to solve the problem:

Verify the power source:
Make sure the outlet is working properly and that the bread maker is plugged in correctly.

Make sure the kneading blade is securely fastened to the kneading pan and that it is correctly positioned.

Verify the components:
Make sure the components are the proper temperature and quantity before adding them.

Make that the kneading blade is not jammed or otherwise blocked, as this could prevent the bread maker from progressing past the initial kneading stage.

Reset the breadmaker: Attempt a reset by unplugging the breadmaker from the power source, letting it sit for a while, and then plugging it back in.

Contact the manufacturer for more assistance if the aforementioned measures are unsuccessful.

Working with electrical equipment can be risky, so always disconnect the breadmaker and follow the proper safety measures before starting any repairs or troubleshooting.

Are you reading the instructions correctly? No bread maker kneads for 1 hour and 30 mins.as you say.
Normally the bread will knead, then sit for up to 20 mins, then continue mixing. then rising then a pause and the a small secondary knead, then rise again. Have you actually just put in the ingredients and left it to itself? If not. Put in the ingredients. Press settings and walk away. If the bread is done then you were perhaps a little too anxious. If it isn't then you know it needs servicing. Good luck.

Depends on the texture you are looking for. Typically a machine has a pre-set program that kneads a certain time and shuts off. If you are using a recipe that is a bread that you make by hand, you could use the machine to knead the bread and rise the first time, then punch it down, knead by hand and form a loaf and bake in oven.

Was the bar ever installed on your bread maker? Is this a replacement knead bar (paddle)?

It sounds like everything is OK...machines knead a while,,,,rest a long time....knead a little rest along time etc......that resting allows the dough to rise....

kneading blades get stuck in the dough and have a hard time removing the bread from machine when done

Hi Jessica,

As I read the manual, under the Care & Cleaning section,

"2. If the kneading blades remain in the bread pan, grip the kneading blade and
pull straight up to remove......"

Based on the diagrams and instructions, I don't think you're supposed to pull the blades before baking...why do you want them out? Cosmetics?

If I can be of further assistance, let me know. If this solves the issue, please rate it accordingly.

Thanks in-advance for using Fixya.com,
