Maximum flour in a Zojirushi BBCC-X20 bread machine?

[b***@mail.cc.umanitoba.ca]

I've read somewhere never to use more 3 cups wholewheat flour in this BM.
Is this good advice?

I think this advice is rather strange, since many of the recipes in the
manual for this machine contain 4 cups of whole wheat flour.

For example:
2 recipes from the manual;

100% Whole Wheat Bread

1-1/2 cups Water
4 cups Whole Wheat Flour
2 Tbsp. Sugar
1-1/2 Tbsp. Dry Milk
1 tsp. Salt
1-1/2 Tbsp. Butter
3 Tbsp. Vital Wheat Gluten
-----------------------------------------------------
100% Whole Wheat Bread

1-7/8 cups Water
5 cups Whole Wheat Flour
3 Tbsp. Sugar
2 Tbsp. Dry Milk
2 tsp. Salt
4 Tbsp. Vital Wheat Gluten
2 Tbsp. Butter
2 tsp. Active Dry Yeast

BBCC-X20 is a two-lb bread machine, so it should be no problem. Or
check its manual about this.
