Club Breadmakers

Chowman:

I agree with your friend. I've brought my panasonic breadmaker over from Australia. All my friends think the bread is great. I just don't understand why they don't sell it locally. Don't waste your money on cheap breadmakers, they usually make dense bread. I had 2 breadmakers and gave up making bread altogether until I tried my friend's panasonic bread...

Chowman, can share the model of your panasonic bm? I wanna google & check it out. TIA.

Hi,


Have bought and use the Kukeri bread maker fm OG, but just tried doing one recipe fm my friend and it’s my first bread maker so quality wise I cannot gauge whether ok or not.

Think cos dif ppl have dif stds and expectations, so …

I only tried as it’s so cheap.

Cheers

hi can someone help me!!!

My crust for the bread that comes out from my breadmaker is always hard…
i have tried to use soft mode, cool for hours, wrap it with cloth once taken out from maker but to no use…
i would like to achieve those bread like store bought. izzit possible??

That was my main complain. Mine is the Z by the way. I have since resorted to using machine just for kneading and rising. Thereafter, I bake it in my normal oven.


I have also stopped following the recipes in the recipe book that comes with the machine. The breads that I make from those recipes do not stay soft. I usually bake at night, it is wonderful fresh out of the oven but by the following morning, it is not as soft or fluffy and by that afternoon, I find myself preferring to toast the bread.

Agreed with Funz. I stop using my Z Machine to bake my bread after I discovered the wonder of using my oven to bake. I can get supersoft bread after that. No longer need to purchase my bread from stores. I also don’t use the recipe from my bread machine.

If you don’t have oven you might want to try this chocolate loaf recipe below. The bread is very soft too. Do adjust the amount if your bm is of small capacity.
Ingredient
1 egg mixed with water to 225ml
100ml fresh milk
450g bread flour
1 tbsp cocoa powder
1 1/2tsp salt
40g caster sugar
25g butter (cut into small cubes)
1 1/2tsp yeast
100g chocolate chips
Steps:
Put in the ingredients into the bread pan in the above order except the choco chips.
Put the choco chips when the signal is given by the machine
Use soft or medium crust
Once ready, take the loaf out from bread machine immediately & let it cool completely before cutting
Keep any balance in airtight container or sealed plastic bag

Wow so yummy looking..... Think the likes of Breadtalk, Four Leaves are shivering about their business if so many able mummies can make their own bread.....

Hehe making bread actually quite simple but the time taken is very long as need to spend a lot of time kneading, proofing and resting the dough before baking. Anyone interested in the recipe can let me know
