Why Gluten-Free Bread Needs Special Toasting
Gluten-free bread isn’t just “regular bread without gluten”—it behaves completely differently when toasted. Our gluten-free algorithms are designed as if they’re toasting a completely new food category. Here’s why:
Sugar Content
Gluten-free breads often have different sugar levels compared to wheat-based breads. Sugar affects browning—it caramelizes, then burns—so adjusting heat levels is critical for even, golden results.
Bread Thickness
Gluten-free breads are often thinner than wheat-based breads. Thinner slices brown faster because they’re closer to the heating elements, but may still need extra time for heat to reach the center.
Moisture Content
For browning to happen, surface moisture must evaporate first. Gluten-free bread can have varying moisture levels, and since water requires significant energy to turn into steam, our toaster adjusts to ensure crisp edges without drying the inside.
Bread Texture
Gluten-free loaves typically have smaller, denser air pockets due to the absence of stretchy gluten strands. This changes how heat interacts with the bread’s surface compared to airy, gluten-rich breads like rustic sourdough. Our gluten-free modes compensate for this, delivering an evenly browned finish every time.

Perfect Toast, Every Time—Even Without Gluten
Whether you’re toasting sandwich bread, an English muffin, or an artisan gluten-free loaf, the R180 Connect Plus Toaster automatically adjusts heat, time, and placement for optimal results. No guesswork—just golden, crispy perfection.
