Panasonic Breadmakers Tips and Quick Questions Thread

arwenelf

Hello!

Could I ask a quick question please? I ould like to get a panny as everyone raves about them on here but I was wondering if the slightly older models are as good as the newer models? I have had a cookworks one which was great but the pan lost its non stick and it was leaving grey streaks in the bread :eek: and cookworks do not do replacement pans......I then inherited a morphy richards fastbake from a friend but I really cannot get on with it - the loaves come out tiny - although I will have a nose on the fastbake thread on here to see if I can solve my dilemma with short loaves.

Now I would just like one that turns out fantastic bread and is reliable please:D

Many thanks

I've got the one that has just been replaced, and I remember looking at the spec for the new one, wondering what had been improved, but unable to see anything. I could just be being stupid - surely they can't have just reissued the same product and have bumped up the price without making SOMETHING better of adding SOME new features - but I'm not sure what they are.

Can anyone help?

Mine is an older model, still make nice bread, does not have nut dispenser even:o

To answer the question, yes they are as good, may not have all the bells on, but will turn out lovely bread time after time

I think I read somewhere that the improvements were tougher non-stick coating & a different/improved? broiche programme

Does anybody know roughly how far into the cycle this goes off? I am making spicy fruitbread and want to nip to town and wondering if I have time. Don't really want spicy fruitless bread :o

Thanks x

Ah, problem solved. About 45 mins if anybody ever needs to know :-)

cooking-mama

does it not tell you in the manual?I have a kenwoodbm450 and at the back of the recipe book there is a list of all the programmes stating what time it mixes,rises,rests,add ingredients signal,bake etc etc.

ive merged this with the panny quick qs thread to see if we can get you some more responses. I can't find the manual online but would be 99 percent sure the times will be all broken down in it for you.

Good luck!
