How it compares

Express, Rapid, Ultra-Fast and quick-yeast programs shorten or skip rises, so most manuals require rapid-rise or instant yeast and warmer liquids. Loaves are usually shorter and denser, and the delay timer is often unavailable.

When will the bread be ready?

Pick a start time to see when to add mix-ins and when it finishes, or enter when you want it ready to get the start time and the delay-timer setting.

    Uses the manual's printed total time. Room temperature and a cold start can change real-world timing slightly; delay-timer limits come from the manual.

    Timer and manual notes

    Delay Start works with Cycles 1–11, 13, 15 and 21 and can be set so the total, cycle time plus delay, reaches up to 13 hours. The manual does not recommend Delay Start for Gluten Free Bread.

    What to check before pressing Start

    On Hamilton Beach 29890, this program is best compared with the other choices on the same control panel, not with a similarly named cycle on another brand.

    Best fit: Use this when elapsed time matters more than maximum rise, cleaning depth or dryness.
    Check first: Check load or loaf limits: fast programs usually trade time for capacity, soaking, rising or sensor adjustment.
