Question 1

Is the bread pan teflon based or PTFE free ceramica?

Accepted Answer

I emailed and called Cuisinart about this issue and was told "All of our nonstick coatings are at least a 2-coat system and pass extensive nonstick testing, including all standard FDA tests. All coatings are PFOA-free and the ceramic non-sticks are also PTFE-free. When this question was first asked in 2014, cookware was still made with PFOA, but in 2015 it became illegal to sell non-stick cookware with PFOA in the US and Canada. PTFE is considered safe as long as cooking temperatures are less than 450 degrees F. I have been unable to get a straight answer from Cuisinart on cooking temperatures for their bread machines. I was told it varies, depending on the setting.

Question 2

How do you remove the paddles before it bakes? By digging the dough out before it rises?

Accepted Answer

I’ve used Breville and Cuisinart. At final knead, my Cuisinart beeps are 1:43 for my tecipe. Minimize disrupting the dough, I do not take mine out of pan, I think too much handling can cause flat concave top at times. Instead, just remove the bowl, tilt pan 90° so dough falls away from side, assist with fingers or rubber spatula if needed until paddle is exposed. Remove paddle, return pan to upright position and place back in machine. Dough will fall to center and rise nicely. You will now only have a small home in center of loaf bottom versus a large paddle hole in 3 slices. Enjoy!

Question 3

How much does the automatic dispenser hold for nuts and fruit?

Accepted Answer

There is not a dispenser for any type of extra ingredients. There will be an audible alert for you to put your extra ingredients in which is during the second kneading cycle.

Question 4

Can you turn off the beeping sounds? I like to make bread at night and don't want it to beep.

Accepted Answer

I don't think so.  I just went through the manual for you now, and can't find any control that says the beeps can be turned off
