Could someone please tell me, do you think breadmaker bread tastes the same as normal white bread!My children are fussy and I am wondering if it tastes any different!

I think it tastes better, much more flavour.

Thanks!And.I have had a breadmaker before, and no matter what I tried I could not get a decent loaf.Mainly it just didn't mix and rise.I followed the recipe and tried every type of flippin yeast!Is this a common problem and is there some miracle fix!

I have a top of the line Breville Ikon which was great for the first 6 mths I had it and baked lovely big loaves for us about 3x a week. However, it no longer bakes so well and the loaves are just not the same, although it still goes through the cycle just fine. So these days I just use it to make pizza dough and foccacia dough and jam (it makes great jam). A friend owns a Panasonic and has had it for about 3yrs - it still bakes perfect bread every time. If I ever replace my Breville I'll be buying a Panasonic, although I make all my bread by hand these days.

I had this problem when following the recipes that came with the breadmaker. Eventually I got a recipe from a friend who also has a breadmaker, and it works perfectly every time.

I'd say that would be a pretty big loaf - the Panasonic has 3 sizes- My guess is this would be the xtra large - what do others think! I made the recipe on the Edmonds High Grade flour pack the other day, had 2 cups of Hi flour and one of wholemeal and used 300mls of water plus oil, sugar salt etc and from memory 3/4 cup roasted seeds - I set machine to medium size. I love recipes with cup amounts though, I recommend the 4 George Dale "Daley Bread" series of books, he's a Kiwi from Wellington, books out of print but do a TM search. He's still going, sells bread mixes from Benedicts cafe in Welly - check their website, makes the mixes Consumer uses to test bread makers. Incidently he prefers Panasonics!

Thanks for this, I had to adapt the recipe too, except I use 3 1/2 tsp yeast and 420 mls water.Must admit, the plain white loaf is the best!

Its nicer then shop bread but in my expeirence breadmaker bread is harder, you cant fold it like a shop bread. Tastewise though, it makes shop bread (white) taste um.very processed.

We have a Breville Bakers oven, had it for 11yrs and still going.Makes a great loaf and it fits the toaster well. It getting a bit noisy now so when and if it dies we will look for another Breville
