Hi Mat,
As I have said I've not bought mine yet but I did see on Amazon in questions
for one of the bred makers that the owner made very good pizza bases in hers.
So I'm expecting it to be possible. In that case looked as if she'd played
around with settings but was using one which was simply dough. Sharon

MJW, with a bread maker you just put dried yeast, flower, sugar,
butter (or other fat), salt and water, in the appropriate quantities,
into the machine's pan, press a button or two, and, four or five hours
later, your loaf is mixed, proved, baked and ready to eat. A wide
range of recipes is available, from whole wheat through French and
Italian, grannary and glutin-free. You can make current bread, seed
bread, and even cake in the machine.
The bread may not be quite as good as the hand-kneaded loaves my
mother used to bake, but it's a lot quicker and easier to make.

Forgive my ignorance, but how does a bread maker differ from an oven?

Hi Kim,
That makes perfect sense. Do you have the all dancing, singing one
which sells on Amazon for £130 or a different model. Panasonic
appear to do a
few
and they all seem highly rated. The super duper one does seem to be
rather large. I want it for the flat so while I do have a reasonably
sized kitchen I'd not want to large a model.
Now the eating is another problem.. and bread is definitely a
weakness for me.

Hi Sharon,
I've got the Panasonic too, had it this Christmas so I believe it's
one of the latest models.
Buttons are easy to use and beep nicely. Only downside is it
remembers the program you used last whenever you turn it back on,
which is great if you're likely to use the same one each time!
So, say I made bread on program 2, with medium crust, next time that
would automatically be ready to go, but if I didn't want that,
pressing the menu button then moves to program 3, not back to 1...if
this is making any sense!
So I'd have to remember which I last used.
Other than that, it makes awesome bread that doesn't last 5 minutes
here, even my six year old daughter who has to have crustless
supermarket bread gobbles it up, crusts and all!
Kim

Sharon, if you do buy the Panasonic, let me know and I'll send you
some basic information to get you started.

Sharon, I have no sight at all, and use a Panasonic bread maker. It
has button controls, easy to locate, and the machine beeps when any
of the buttons is pressed. You need to know how many beeps are
required for all the settings.
I've had my machine for a couple of years, so they might have
changed the model. Panasonic have a good customer advice service,
and they will tell you if the current machine beeps. Their number
is
08448 443899
If you decide on the Panasonic, I suggest you get the instructions
brailled or audio-ed. If you need Braille, there are one or two
transcribers you might contact. My notes on transcribers may well
be out of date, so best ask RNIB.

Hi all,---
This list has gone quiet so hope it's sstill active.
I eat very little bread these days but do enjoy good quality bread
when I buy it. My partner however loves bread and misses it if not
in his diet. So I'm thinking of buying a bread maker so I can make
healthy bread without all the hard work.
I've looked at several models on the internet and I'm not easily
able to establish if the controls are via a touch panel or buttons
- I suspect the former in most cases. I was wondering if any of
you have a bread maker and can pass on any tips or recommendations?
Hope you are all well? I did eventually get my new kitchen
installed in London and it surpassed my expectations. It's not a
large flat but has really opened up the flat. In a week I'm having
a new bathroom installed. Once again it's not a large bathroom - I
want to replace the bath with a lovely shower cubicle but Tony
wants a bath so a little negotiation is going on! Wish me luck!
