Hi TwinkleJoy

I'm also an owner of the same Severin model....eh, since last year actually but due to non-success, it's slowly becoming a white elephant.

I'm now re-encouraged by your pics. Can I ask a few qns:

1) Which recipe did you follow for above bread? Is it the one on White Bread/French bread in the manual - pg 28?

2) What brand of yeast did you use?

3) What brand of wheat flour did you use?

4) Milk brand too?

I'm trying to get precise here cos my last few attempts (before I gave up), the bread turned out too chewy/rubbery :oops:

Looking forward to your advice and thanks!!

My adjustments to Z original Choc Bread Recipe:


3/4 cups Water + Whipping Cream Milk (50-50)
1 3/4 cups bread flour (I use Prima flour)
1/2 tbsp cocoa (I use van houten brand - white box)
1 1/2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp salt
2 tbsp butter (I use unsalted anchor butter)
1 tsp instant yeast (I use SAF instant)
1 cup choc chips


I put everything in except butter :D, I put the butter when the flour and other dry and wet ingredients are mixed (about 5 minutes after Z start kneading) and of course the choc ship I added when the add beeps sound

Thanks for sharing peter. Any reason why you put the butter in later?
