Sunbeam 5891 Bread Maker - Page 6 - Answered Questions & Fixed issues

Hi, First, the take empty pan and paddle out of the machine. Try to spin the paddle by hand. If it spins freely that's great. If it does not spin freely the sealed bearing that allows the paddle to spin has failed and you will need a new bread pan. If everything is okay, keep the pan out of the machine and go to a kneading cycle. Look through the window to see if the motor shaft is turning. If not then the belt is loose or fell off. Hank

please rate my answer, vote, testimonial so I can continue helping!

For softer crust on standard yeast type breads use milk instead of water....

These are a pretty common blade. I'm pretty sure you can find one on ebay? If you don't ebay let me know and I will try to find another source.

Is your paddle still stuck? If so have you tried filling the pan with soapy water for a couple of days? If the soaking has not worked let me know and I will send you a link to you tube that demonstrates how to get a stuck paddle off without damaging the pan. my email is [email protected]

hi sonotim, Here is website that shows the pan that would replace yours as the first item. I think locating just the little gasket would be difficult. It looks like the site will probably redirect you to ebay. There are a lot of parts for bread machines on ebay. If you feel this is helpful please rate/rank/vote for me on fixya....Thanks!

I have a manual for a sunbeam 5890. If you are interested in that one let me know. If you can contribute anything via paypal for your manual after you receive it that would be appreciated but not required. Just let me know.....please do include the brand and model if you email back as I get lots of manual requests. Thanks!

I have an electronic copy of your manual that I could email to you for free or I could print out the manual on my end and mail you a copy of the manual by US mail. I charge $7.50 for hard copy bread machine manuals to cover my cost of printing, paper, time and effort etc......Just let me know which you prefer............the free e-copy or the $7.50 paper copy mailed to you. I can do either one. Thanks! Please leave a ranking/rating vote so I can help others with their bread machines too!.........bfn

Hi,
You might try buying a few of those little packets of yeast. Then try the same recipe that you have been using. If the loaf falls again then your yeast isn't the problem. Recheck your recipe again and be sure you are measuring everything correctly. By the way in baking bread I always use flour marked "bread flour". I never use "all purpose flour" because of poor results in the beginning. I ebay machines all the time and have several in stock if you decide you need one let me know.

JUST UNPLUG THE MACHINE AND START OVER WITH YOUR PROGRAMMING AFTER YOU PLUG IT BACK IN

No I don't think you can use crust selections on the cake setting. My machines that have the bake setting don't allow you to select crust color either. I definitely wouldn't go into the machine to change any of the settings, you may do to much damage to the machine.

then programme it on the bake cycle.

twist it then pull. try both anticlockwise and clockwise.

Either spay a non stick spray on the blade/paddle before you began or simplly remove the the blade/paddle after the kneading cycle is completed

The small end of the wire thing works to dig the paddle out of the loaf, where it always sticks. I have no idea what the other end is for. Hope this helps.....a bit.

If there is trip switch on the backside or underside please check. if not check the power to the switch and to the motor.
Since there is nothing more than this the fault can be a connection or the motor. make sure the switch is working.

Hi..If you are referring to the gasket that sits on the bottom of the bread pan and is part of the sealed bearing assembly , then that gasket can not be replaced. Hank
