Toasting Fruit Toast on the lowest setting possible - toast is too dark and burnt

Thanks so much for your feedback! Bread can toast quite differently depending on its moisture, density, size and sugar content. Since fruit toast has a moderate to high sugar content compared with regular white or wholemeal bread, it can brown more quickly, even when using a lower browning setting. You may also notice that slices from different parts of the loaf toast differently. The end of the loaf is usually drier than the middle, which can result in a darker slice. We hope this helps explain the difference and makes finding the perfect setting for your favourite fruit toast a little easier! 😊

toaster has died. where do i send it back for a warranty as it is 18 months old.

This happened to me with my last kitchenaid, the elements stopped heating up, turns out it wasn’t broken. There were too many crumbs and I had to completely turn it upside down and clean it out fully. Started working like new. Might be worth a try before you send it back.

Can I lift my toast during the cycle to see how it is going, without breaking the cycle?

No, you cannot. I’d advise against buying this toaster, I went through 3 in a month before settling for a refund. Very poor quality compared to other KA appliances, sadly.

How do I toast a crumpet satisfactorily.

It took me 3 cycles on high. I ended up settling for a refund as I found the quality of this product incredibly unsatisfactory.

uneven toasting ( not using the bagel setting. only one side of the elements in each slot lights up. very pricey for not so great toast so far. its brand new ! is this normal?

I went through 3 that all did the same and was told it was normal. They issues a refund after I sent photos of how uneven the toasting was on each side of the bread.

When in use, the inner elements glow brightly but the outer ones don’t. This is true for all slots during normal use with no special function selected .As a result, one side of the bread is more toasted than the other. Is this intentional?

Thank you for your enquiry. The toaster elements on the outside often do not 'glow' however they will still heat and toast as desired. The middle elements more often will 'glow' red due to the way the wires are stroked, this is a double sided element and due to the surface load being increased the heat is distributed differently and causes the element to look red. Toasters will often need to be 'worn in' from brand new meaning that it can take a few goes for the element to heat up evenly. We find by putting the toaster on the high setting (without toast) for 2 -3 cycles and then moving back to your desired setting for toasting will fast track this process.
