Bread Paddle Stuck

in: Bread
Spread the love

FIRST what NOT to do. Do Not Use The Hook Tool.

Why? because you will inevitably scratch the finish and then your bread pan is no longer safe to use because the Lord only knows what that base metal outside really is.

Sooner or later we all experience the dreaded “Stuck Paddle”

Now what you can do. It my experience that it is always best if you remove the paddle as soon as possible whether it is stuck in the pan or in the bread. In either case, once the crust hardens (and that is what is keeping the paddle from releasing) it just gets harder.



If you are fortunate, the first step to loosen and then remove a paddle is the “soapy soak”

If not so fortunate, there is a method described (sorta – kinda) in all the manuals I have read for KBS MBF models that is really well demonstrated in this video (no idea if he has affiliate links, just sharing useful information.

If your paddle is still inside the bread

First, using the point of a wooden skewer, I try to make a small cut along the top edge of the paddle – this results in less damage (as in not a huge chunk out of the bottom on the loaf).
Second, using the skewer, instead of a metal anything, as shown in the “Dad” video, gently lift the paddle.
