I just got a Black and Decker bread machine B2300 and I'm making my first loaf. The bread has risen right to the plastic cover, touching and completely obscuring the window. Should I panick?
Kady.
Try making a smaller recepe, or use the dough setting and bake the bread in regular bread pans - for a traditional loaf with no paddles to dig out.
Hi Kady,
No, I don't think you need to panic. You might encounter a little sticking to the window, but I'd go-ahead
and try it, and keep an eye on it. Worst possible scenario, you have
to clean out the machine. Anything more than that, and it's clearly a
defective unit.
As I read the manual, it doesn't warn about this being an issue. (You _did_ read your manual, didn't you?..........(;^])
From Item #5:
"5.Look but don't open:The glass in the cover is there to monitor the
process. Do not open the lid during the baking process...."
And from item #13:
"too high - try less yeast (1/4 tsp. at a time). "
If you're still concerned, I'd try the toll-free Black & Decker recall # - - they should have info about any know safety issues.

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,

My first time baking a loaf:my bread maker lid was being pushed up by the rising dough! It is now up against the glass lid with 5 minutes baking time left. It still looks like dough and not browning....! A disappointing first trial.

bread too high
I have the same problem...bread rises to high lifts the lid and stickes to the lid. I have had this machine for almost a year and it has never worked
properly. I have reduced the yeast by 1/4 tsp each time until there was so little yeast the loaf didn't rise properly and was more like a brick than a loaf of bread.
I have always been a loyal black and decker fan but this is my last black and decker product.
