How to use a bread machine

Using a bread machine is actually very easy, but there are a few things you should remember to get the best experience.

If you want to use a timer function, which makes the bread ready at the time you want, you should avoid regular yeast, as it works too early.

Instead, use dry yeast, but remember to add it last, so it is on top of the ingredients.

Here is a quick guide to typical use of a bread machine:

1. Open the machine and place the ingredients in the container.
2. The “wet” ingredients go in first, and the dry ones on top - place the yeast on top.
3. You can use both dry yeast and regular yeast, but it should be started quickly if you use regular yeast, whereas dry yeast can be used with the timer function.
4. Now set the bread machine to the right program.
5. See at the top of the machine where the different programs are indicated, typically with a number.
6. Select the number that corresponds to your recipe and your ingredients.
7. You can also set the size of, for example, your bread, typically on a button titled “loaf-size”.
8. You can also choose the type of crust your bread should have, either very light or dark.
9. If you are using dry yeast, you can choose to set a timer so that the bread is ready at a specific time.
10. If you do not select a timer, the machine will just start immediately.
11. Making bread typically takes anywhere from 3-4 hours from start to finish.
12. Some bread machines have a timer on the display, which tells you how long your bread is taking to be ready.
13. When the bread is finished, simply remove the pan from the machine, remember an oven mitt as it can be hot.
14. Turn the pan upside down on a cutting board, and give it a couple of light taps until the bread falls out of the pan.
15. Some bread machines come with a tool that makes it easier to get the bread out of the pan.
16. You can now enjoy your very own freshly baked bread!

5 Things you should look for when choosing a bread machine

If you are a little unsure about what you should know about a bread machine before you buy it, read on below.

We go through a few points that are worth knowing about various bread machines, so you are sure you choose the features you want.

#1 - Size and design of your bread machine

A bread machine is usually quite large, as it needs space for baking, and can make very large breads, cakes, etc.

The size determines how big of baked goods you can produce, and for how many.

Some models even have multiple compartments, so you can make two breads or other items simultaneously.

If you have a larger family, it may be worth choosing one of the very large models, so you are sure there is enough bread for everyone.

Conversely, you might choose a smaller model if you live alone, or with a partner/roommate.

The design is more a matter of taste, and often bread machines are made in very neutral colors like black, white, gray, etc.

There are also beautiful models made of stainless steel that fit into most kitchens.

#2 - Bread machine with timer

A timer function in your bread machine is the perfect way to have warm, delicious bread ready precisely when you want it.

Here is a good example of why it is super smart:

• Before you go to bed, you add ingredients for a delicious bread in your bread machine
• Set the timer for 7 o'clock the next morning
• Wake up to warm and delicious freshly baked bread, ready to eat with the whole family

With the timer function, you can completely decide when your bread should be ready, which is a clear advantage if you are among the many who love fresh-baked and warm bread.

#3 - Bread machine with “keep warm” function

Some bread machines have a function that can keep the bread warm if you are slightly delayed.

This can be a great advantage if you are using a timer function but for some reason are not ready at the designated time.

With the keep warm function, the bread will stay warm and delicious for a long time, so it still tastes freshly baked when you eat it.

#4 - Bread machine with manual settings - for your own recipes

If you have your own favorite recipes for, for example, bread, cake, or anything else you want to make in your bread machine, you can fortunately do that.

Some models of bread machines allow you to enter your own specifications, for example, if a certain number of degrees is needed when the bread is kneaded, baked, or otherwise.

This makes it possible to personalize your baked goods, so you get your very own preferred result.

#5 - Bread machine with built-in recipes

If you need a little inspiration or just want to make your baking much easier, you can benefit from choosing a bread machine with built-in recipes.

This makes it easy and simple to bake; all you need to do is add the right ingredients and press the specific recipe.

Bread machines with recipes often have various programs printed on the top of the machine, which you can freely choose from.

Recipes that come with a bread machine can include:

• Bread machine recipe for cake.
• Bread machine recipe for bread/gluten-free bread.
• Bread machine recipe for jam.
• Bread machine recipe for yogurt.
• Bread machine recipe for rice pudding.
