Knowing your breadmaker's loaf capacity will enable you to find recipes of any variety on the Internet for free.
It will also keep you from adding too much ingredients which could cause dough to over-rise and spill onto the heating element.
Remove your bread pan from your breadmaker. Using a one-cup 8-fluid-ounce liquid measure, fill your bread pan with water. As you do, count the number of cups it takes to fill your bread pan to the very rim.
Generally speaking...
If your bread pan holds 7 & 10 cups to the rim then you have a 1.0 lb or 500 g loaf pan
10 & 11 cups to fill = 1.5 lb (700 g) loaf pan
11 & 13 cups to fill = 2.0 lb (900 g) loaf pan
13 & 15 cups to fill = 2.5 lb (1250 g) loaf pan
15 & 17 cups to fill = 3.0 lb (1350 g) loaf pan
Generally speaking...
A bread recipe for use in a 1.0 lb (500 g) breadmaker should never exceed 2-1/4 total cups of flour.
1.5 lb (700 g) = 3-1/4 c
2.0 lb (900 g) = 4-1/4 c
2.5 lb (1250 g) = 5-1/4 c
3.0 lb (1300 g) = 6-1/4 c
Warning: When testing a new bread recipe it is always best that you not leave your breadmaker unattended. Stay close by to monitor its progress from time to time.
