Club Breadmakers

I personally prefer the horizontal pan to the vertical pan, but my current Bluesky model has a vertical pan. Beggars can't be choosers since the price was right and most important of all, it has a jam function, think that is more important than one with a horizontal pan.


Why I prefer horizontal pan is due to the way the blade cuts into the loaf. I get more slices of 'nicer' looking bread from a horizontal pan as compared to a vertical pan, if you know what I mean.

Not sure if every breadmachine comes with a viewing window, but I think most do but if you have a choice, would be good to get one with a viewing window.

Oh yes, another important tip apart from the sequence of the ingredients is that you must never be tempted to open the cover to look at the dough, especially in the proofing stage. This is one lesson which I learnt from experience. Think has something to do with the air going in during the proofing stage or something like that. Read somewhere, but forgot what it is already.

Ok... thank you for the pointers.. :thankyou: Will keep all these in mind.

Will update when I have bought the machine (don't intend to buy too expensive one)... Heehee...

And.... will post pictures to \"show off\" when I bake (i.e. if bread is successful)... Hahaha!!! :lol: :lol:

Oh yum. I love a fresh loaf of bread. Kaya too, especially the orange version (don't know why must be orange).


Also would like to know the price of this bread maker. Can't be cheap, right?

Is it easy to clean? Did someone already comment on this?

Haha, you are funny, but for me, my kaya must be green, pandan taste mah!

Think ksi mentioned something like $300 for this model.

Cleaning is relatively easy, just make sure that you are careful with the non-stick coating inside the pan.

You are most welcome. In fact, not sure if you can still find this brand in the market, but another good brand to consider is Breville, from Tangs and the bigger departmental stores, I think.

Haha, don't worry, the breadmachine is quite idiot proof. I am sure you will succeed, if not at first try, try again until you get it right.

Breville not too expensive, I hope?

Not sure, don't need a new machine now, so not sure how are prices like now.

25hourmaid:

Check yours!

Okie, replied.

Breville also good?? Okie, I have Tangs vouchers. Will also go and check it out.

25hourmaid:

Actually I think I have some more pictures of jams and such, but don't seem to be able to find them when I need them, maybe have deleted them or they are archived somewhere in some CDs.

At least you found some....I cannot find the directory I store the pictures.
Since you have post bread, maybe I find my pizzas ones if I can find it....
