Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I was given a Welbilt Bread Machine by my Mother-In-Law who hadn't used it in years. It seems like it would be a great bread maker, except I don't have any user manuals or anything to go with it. The company went out of business a while ago, and I've had no luck with google on getting much. Do any of you have some basic instructions for it or anything? Its model number: ABM 3900. I've seen instructions for the 3800 and 4400 models, but I have a feeling they'd be a bit different.

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
You said that you saw directions for ABM 3800 and that yours is number 3900. if they both make the same size loaf and they both have the same shape pan, then I would certainly try using the 3800 directions. After all, after you put in the ingredients, the machine does the rest of the work. Is there an illustration of parts that you can compare?
One little tip: make a note and tape it to your machine reminding yourself to attach the plastic blade to the base of the pan before putting in your ingredients. I have forgotten this step and had to scoop out the dough mixture and start all over again!

I think Joan gave some good advice. Also you might do a search on ebay to see if anyone is selling an instruction manual for your machine. Perhaps a thriftyfun member has the same machine and would be nice enough to make a copy of her manual and send to you or atleast post enough info here for you to make a simple loaf of bread. I know I misplaced the manual/cookbooklet for my old Rival crock pot. I looked high and low for it and finally I went on ebay and sure enough someone was selling that exact cookbooklet with all my favorite recipes.
I don't suppose your mother in law knows where the manual is, does she? Does she remember how to use the bread machine at least? I guess you wouldn't be asking here.
Well good luck!

Go to www.craigslist.com & then click on your state & then your city or the nearest one to yours. Go to the wanted column & put in your request. I have used craigslist for about 3 years & have had great luck in obtaining so many items.
Good luck.

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I have 8 different bread machines and I use the same recipe with all of them. Just add the liquid first and then the rest.

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
This link has manuals for several Welbilt ABMs, but not the 3900: http://welbiltmanuals.blogspot.com/
I'm guessing you can look at the pictures and find one very much like the 3900. Good luck!

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I actually have the Welbilt bread machine, and my instructions have said to always add the DRY ingredients first, in this order:
- Yeast
- Flour
- Sugar
- salt
- diced butter
- eggs
- water/milk/liquid
Some of these items are not in all recipes...just keep in mind if the recipe lists all wet ingredients first, just read recipe from the bottom up. Good luck!

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
Thanks for all the great responses. I tried going with the instructions for the lower model, its close to what I have. I suppose its just trial and error though :p
Thanks for that bit of information though, sewcut! I had no idea dry ingredients would go first.

I need the instructions for a WELBILT Bread Machine ABM-100-3.

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I have a Welbilt ABM-100-3 bread machine that I bought years ago. I believe that it was the first bread machine for sale in the USA, and they quit making it long ago. The same style machine was sold that made different size loaves, mine makes a 1-1/2 to 2 lb loaf, the others only made a 1 lb loaf. I'm not sure if the one that made smaller loaves had a different model number or not. I have the directions and recipe booklets for mine, and would be happy to copy them for you. E-mail me if you can't find them anywhere else. In this machine, always add the yeast 1st, followed by the remaining dry ingredients. The water gets put over the other ingredients (on top).

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
Just wanted to thank Nigella for giving the link to that website. I just bought a Welbilt bread machine at my local thrift shop with no directions. I think this site will be very helpful to me. I'm sure glad someone asked the right question and that so many of you had good answers. I am confused though because many people on other sites said wet ingredients first, some said yeast first, and others said dry ingredients first. I guess once I read the manual for my machine once I figure out which one it is I'll be able to figure out which goes first in my particular machine. But it's great having all this useful information at the touch of a computer keyboard button. :o) (10/01/2007)

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
Just moved to sea level from 9000 ft altitude and dusted off my Welbilt bread machine but there are no instructions to be found. Thanks for your input and wish me luck. After so many duds at high altitude, we're really looking forward to having home made bread again! Will let you know how it turns out!
Editor's Note: High altitude cooking is a whole new learning experience, especially baking. Here's a good link: http://urc.colostate.edu/titles/P41.html
They say: "High altitude has its most pronounced effect on the rising time of bread. At high altitudes, the rising period is shortened. Since the development of a good flavor in bread partially depends on the length of the rising period, it is well to maintain that period. Punching the dough down twice gives time for the flavor to develop.
In addition, flours tend to be drier and thus able to absorb more liquid in high, dry climates. Therefore, less flour may be needed to make the dough the proper consistency."

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I would assume that you could put the dry or wet first, as long as they are separated. I did do this with my welbilt, I put the wet stuff on the bottom, dry on top, then the yeast. The loaf turned out great. I think the trick is to separate the liquids from the yeast, so either way should work fine. (12/28/2007)

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
I purchased a Welbilt bread machine with no manual on Fri. I logged onto the Hillbilly Housewife on Sat. They have general instructions on how to use a bread machine with no manual. I made bread that Sat. night no problem. Just place wet ingredients first, yeast last. I have the 3500. I made delicious whole wheat bread with only whole wheat flour. Hope this helps! (02/09/2009)

RE: Welbilt Bread Machine Instructions
If your machine has a timer function, (and you intend to use it), you must add the yeast last. Wet items on the bottom, dry items on top, and yeast last. (02/27/2009)

Could you please tell me where to get a copy of the book for this machine? Thanks.
