Good to know. So is it a no-brainer like a breadmachine as far as kneading is concerned? In a breadmaker, we dump the flour etc in, leave it for a couple of hours and take out the kneaded dough. Do we do the same for a KitchenAid?

Ok, this is my sequence. Almost similar to breadmaker. No need sequence.
1. Dump in all the ingredients.
2. Start mixing on low speed until an elastic ball formed.
3. Remove mixing bowl, cover with wet cloth. Let it prove for 1 hr.
4. Take out dough. Put on my silicone sheet, shape dough, put in baking tin. Prove half hr.
5. Bake.

Thanks. Sounds easy enough.

Does anyone know how to make focaccia or ciabatta using the breadmachine? Any recipes? I think we’d probably have to shape and bake it in the oven though right?

Hi all,


I’m using Severin breadmaker but i find that the bread is too wet and the crust is too hard. Anyone can share with me why is this so ?

Also, what’s the bread improver for ?

Hi good morning mummyof3,
I'm a new trainee baker and am using Severin too. so far I have baked(only) 3 loafs from this 'not so cute but have bigger viewing window' breadmaker..results were acceptable. I followed strictly on the recipes stated.
The crust is too hard : did you leave it inside the baking tin for too long...my 1st loaf's crust was too brown and abit hard too. I learned this from shi fu ksi.
As for too wet..hmm...too much water/milk? baking time too short? :?
calling all experts/shi fu :?: why bread too wet?

:offtopic: here again. Happy Mama, jtoh has already chalked up 1000th posts. Yours is coming soon, you had better go and start an introductory thread in Newbies, otherwise when the time comes, we won't know where to post our congratulatory message.
