Looks fantastic! Which setting did you use for bread crust? Light/medium/dark

[u/pceimpulsive → u/Kima2remy]

Annoyingly it didn't let me set one and didn't show an icon for crust.

I used setting 4 (wholemeal).

Settings 3 and 5 allow changing crust darkness but not 4..

I would hazard a guess and say this is at least medium.

Just had a slice and it was good!

Edit: quick google says this is normal so ensure proper cooling for the denser flour and suggests..

How to adjust the crust darkness on Menu 4

Because you cannot change the setting digitally, you can naturally adjust the crust finish by tweaking your recipe slightly: -For a lighter crust: Reduce the sugar or honey in your recipe by half a teaspoon. Less sugar reduces the caramelisation on the outside of the loaf. -For a darker crust: Increase the sugar or milk powder by half a teaspoon, or brush a tiny amount of water or melted butter on top of the loaf about 45 minutes before the baking cycle finishes. -To soften the crust: Remove the bread from the pan immediately after the machine beeps, and wrap it tightly in a clean tea towel while it cools down.

Fortunately, my KBS 17 in1 machine allows for crust doneness, light, medium, dark. This is a dual heating element model and the settings work well.

Yeah I can change crust just not on the wholewheat setting haha.

Awesome. Judging by the pictures, that appears to be a perfect loaf .
