Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Bread Maker BB-CEC20

Bread making machines — Mon, 01 Nov 2010 01:30:09 +0000

Baking one’s own bread is more than just a kitchen routine. There is a certain type of fanaticism involved, and quality, variety and freshness are constant concerns. With those things in mind, the Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Bread Maker offers true bread-making enthusiasts a very popular option.

The Zojirushi bread making machines do have a few drawbacks. The loaf size is geared towards purists, and users cannot divert from the standard. Also, the instructional video comes in the defunct VHS tape format. Finally, it is one of the most expensive bread makers on the market. But despite those few minor drawbacks, it remains one of the most popular on the market, and it certainly has a lot going for it.

What It Does
Of course, it makes great bread. But equally importantly for many is that the loaves it produces are conventionally shaped, like the bread available in stores. Most other bread bakers cannot accommodate this size, instead offering unusually shaped square loaves. Having a standard-size loaf may sound like a small issue, but for a true bread baking enthusiast, it can become a major one when bread does not fit in the toaster, sandwiches do not fit into sandwich bags and pieces of bread are just plain uncomfortable to hold.

Features
Among the features that more than justify this machine’s price tag are:

A powerful motor that kneads even the stiffest of dough with ease
A very quiet operation, despite the high-powered motor
Two kneading blades to ensure that the mixing is complete and even
A preheat function to bring ingredients to the correct temperature before mixing or kneading
Easy programmability to allow for personalized proofing, kneading and baking programs
A “quick dough” cycle that produces dough in 45 minutes
A “quick bake”option that makes bread in 2 hours – perfect for when additional bread is suddenly needed
A signal that indicates when dried fruits, nuts or other ingredients need to be added
A 13 hour programmable timer

The Zojirush is also a very versatile machine. Bread bakers who want to experiment will be pleased to know that they can use their machine to bake meatloaf, lasagna, cakes, and even jam.

What It Offers You
The Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Bread Baker delivers a complete set of features, ease of use and the supreme advantage of a standard-size loaf. The quality of the bread that can be produced with the machine is the ultimate deciding factor, and the Zojirushi is a winner on that front. If you are looking for a high-quality, reliable bread maker that gives you fresh bread in the size and shape you are used to, and which consistently produces bread of the highest quality, this is the one for you.

You’re also not limited to preconfigured recipes. Creative cooks will want to experiment, and you can program your own recipes into the machine. The Zojirushi Home Bakery Supreme Bread Maker not only makes sure that your family gets perfect fresh bread every day, its other functions and cooking roles make it a great all round piece of kitchen equipment.

There are plenty of great bread making machines here. Make sure that you check out all of our listings of bread making machines. I am sure that you will find a model that suits your needs.
