How to choose a bread maker

September 10, 2019

If you are someone who loves homemade bread but has never tried making it yourself due to lack of time, then I recommend purchasing a bread machine .

You simply place the ingredients in the bread maker, set the appropriate program, and wait 90 minutes or less. This way, you can make your own bread at home without any extra effort or additives.

What is a bread bakery?

Most conventional bread ovens consist of a non-stick baking tray, attached to paddles for mixing the dough, and mounted in the center of the oven.

You don't have to put in extra effort to make your own bread, because the bakery will do it for you.

We've discussed some of the features that are already widely known, now let's look at the details that you need to know before purchasing a device.

How many types of bread bakeries are there?

Currently, there are two types of bread bakeries: vertical and horizontal.

The bread in the vertical machine is long and brick-shaped, unlike regular bread. It also takes up less space.

The bread made with this machine turns out very good if you choose the right ingredients. For example, the flour should not be ordinary, it is better if you use bread flour and you also choose the right yeast.

Horizontal bread machine: If you are the kind of person who pays attention to how the bread looks, then I recommend a horizontal bread machine, which you will find in every store.

This bread machine has two mixers, in addition to the one that the vertical bread machine has. You can also use regular flour in this machine.

What sizes are available?

Bread makers come in various sizes and capacities, below is a general classification based on their size.

Small, mini bread machines - 0.5 l
Medium bread loaf - 1 L
Large bread machines - 1.5 l - 2 l
Flexible six-loaf pan - 0.5 l, 1 l or 1.5 l

Tip - Typically, a 0.5 liter bread maker bakes 8 slices of bread, a 1 liter bread maker bakes 12 slices, and a 1.5 liter bread maker bakes 16 slices.

Brands:

The two leading brands are considered the best, Kenwood bread makers and Panasonic premium quality machines .

Which functions should we choose it for?

This chapter will cover the functions that a bread maker must have.

Convection Mode - You can place the ingredients in the bread maker and simply set the time when you want the bread to be ready and you will have freshly baked bread at the desired time.

Dough mode - This allows you to knead all kinds of dough used for pizza, pasta and cookies. This mode is ideal for those tiring days.

Express mode - If your day is very busy and you are always in a hurry, then you should definitely buy a bread maker with an express mode. Thanks to this mode, you will be able to prepare bread in just 58 minutes.

Automatic addition - If you want to add nuts or yeast, with this program you don't have to choose the optimal time to add them. Simply place them in the appropriate place and turn on the machine.
