Guest guest Posted October 19, 2001 Report Share Posted October 19, 2001 I've decided that it's time to invest in a breadmaker, but I don't know anything about them. Can anyone recommend a good brand name or let me know if there are certain features I should look for? I'm not looking to make anything fancy, just some basic white sandwich bread my son will eat.

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 Okay, now I'm having second thoughts about the bread maker. I read through the introduction to Marci's Soft White Bread and Rolls in Special Diets for Special Kids and now I'm thinking I should put my money into a " good mixer " or, better yet, a food processor. I priced a KitchenAide at a discount store and it was $250.00! Can anyone recommend a food processor that is less than half that price?

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 On the subject of breadmakers....does your bread come out with a very hard crust? Ours does and we have to cut off the crust. Is this just because it's GF? Or could I be setting the settings to high? I haven't really had the time to " play " with it. Thanks a lot Rhonda (CA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 WalMart and Target Stores both carry the Kitchen Aide mixers for about $169.00. I haven't bought one yet as I was trying to use my regular hand held one as long as possible. But was making pizza dough the other day and mixer was making some awful noises when hubby walked in. He said .. " That sounds ugly " LOL So maybe I will get a kitchenaide for Christmas.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted October 20, 2001 Report Share Posted October 20, 2001 Just my opinion but I think you thoughts are right-get a good quailty mixer or processor-GF breads in a bread machine are very difficult I prefer to do it in a mixer.f Re: Breadmakers > Okay, now I'm having second thoughts about the bread maker.
