      Don't think my Z-machine can bake until so nice. Anyone know where to get the same machine as Anna? Must go Malaysia?


      It is not the machine, it is the way and method used. Also, the kneading duration is important to determine the fine texture. So far, Z has the best duration when I did a comparison with B, P, S, P machines etc....What button is available in the Z machine?

      Agreed with Dasalo, it is the way and method used. The Z-machine is more expensive than mine (COSWAY). Maybe Flowermonaster needs to check who is using the same machine and ask for the procedures.

      If i am not wrong Singapore also have this direct sales - COSWAY but they not selling this breadmaker. If you really keen maybe i ask my friend to get one for u. I am not sure the normal retail price but i got it abt RM249 or RM269 (cannot remember), my friend using her member points to get such lower price. Really worth to invest. I can teach u how to use it also. Have a nice day.

        I have the basic bread with regular or firm option, soft bread & crust control is regular or light. Then, there is the Quick baking & French Bread. So which option should I select to have the soft & fluffy texture? I usually choose the soft bread thinking soft bread should give me soft & fluffy right? :?

However my friends advised me not to use the COSWAY recipe when baking the toast as the end result is not good. So, i am using other recipes and important is don dump everything into the machine and let it run till the end, you won get soft & fluffy bread. Normally i use the basic function, let the machine kneed the dough and after abt 1 hour proofing, i take out the dough (don off the machine) and press out the air, rest for 5 minutes, press out the air and roll it like swissroll. Put it back into the machine and let's the machine run till left 5 minutes and take out the bread. Hope this will help u.
          Remark: Butter should add in after abt 10-15 minutes kneading.

            Yes! Yes, that's what I do, dump everything inside & let the machine knead & proof & bake! :oops:
            I don't have an oven so no choice have to rely on the machine to bake. If I still use machine to bake, can I still use the method you stated above? I don't know when the machine will starts the individual function as it only beep twice, one for adding other ingredient, the other when it's done.

              The method i stated above does not need oven to bake, the whole process is done by the breadmaker. Talk to u again, rushing back

              Enjoy

                    Interesting....how long did the softness last?

                    If it can last longer than the current method, then I will also re-start the process πŸ˜‰

                    Do you think, the wait of a few hours also a factor?
