I just bought a Oster from good will for $20. It was basically brand new. I'm making my first. Though here's a little tip. I don't know if this is same for breadmakers but when I was making bread.. adding more water helped a lot with texture and gave it a more desired firmness. Also try using seltzer water. It may or may not work for you. The cop escaping helps for a more fluffy bread.
The instructions say the hook is to raise the handle. If you use it to remove the paddle you could scratch the non-stick surface. I recommend a wooden spoon handle to remove the paddle.
I just ordered that exact one. Cant wait to use it. You two are exactly right about the added chemicals that we don't need in our food. Thanks for the video !
I find using the machine costs more $, 3 hours electricity. I used it. My result wasnt great. Maybe my receipe mix is not right. It took almost all day yet the bread was not bread.
The hook is for removing the paddle out of the bread when you take out of pan. Stick the tiny end into the hole and move it around until it catches the padfle and pull.
Right now, I'm baking a sweet smelling oatmeal bread loaf on my Costco bought Cuisinart bread machine. Never let the loaf cool inside the bread pan. Not only its harder to get it out, but the condensation affects the quality of the bread.
My last bread maker lasted over 30 years. I love them and just ordered this one that you are showing. Just found your video and subscribe to your channel. Sending prayers, and kindness.❤
I LOVE this cuisinart bread maker - so simple and it makes beautiful bread. A cautionary tale though: I live in the high desert and at a high altitude! I used a bread maker recipe for french bread. The french bread recipe had very little liquid in it. I did not pay attention to the high altitude suggestion! My first bread experience ended up looking like a brain or cauliflower - all little rounds that didn't bake! It was hilarious looking and my husband really cracked up looikng at the 'finished brain bread.' I am going to try french bread again after I investigate a little further. But overall ... I love this breadmaker. Ihaven't tried any of the quick breads or any of the add ins yet, but I'm looking forward to it! The other thing I love about it isthat it makes small, medium and large loaves of bread. I wish they would include a few extra stirrers!
I like your video and the way you guys articulate. I just bought my Cuisinart bread maker today and used it for the first time. It worked out good but I think I didn't use enough salt.
And you can freeze the bread and it should be fine for at least a couple weeks. That was my experience with my bread. This may also be helpful: Mold cannot grow if the temperature dips below 40 degrees Fahrenheit. Different types of mold can have varying minimum and maximum temperature ranges for growth.
my sister just bought me this one. I've recently started baking and I can't wait to use it!! tId love to make a rye bread with the caraway seeds🍞😁thank you for this video
Did you know you can make risotto in a bread machine on the jam setting one part rice to 3 part stock. Set the timer so when you come home dinner it's ready
I have a bread machine not your brand but mine works great when I'm in the mood to make homemade goodness..something I did not hear you say is that the ingredients have to be put into the bucket in a certain order..hoping those who get your brand or another will read the directions closely.
Ahh yes good point. Definitely a must to read the directions to see how you're supposed to add everything. We may have mentioned it but accidentally cut it out!
Love the video. I know it has been a couple years (close to, just a couple months away), and I wondering what else have you made? Thank you for the video. It has helped a lot. Loved the mold warning. I forgot about there not being perservatives. XD When watching the process video, I was looking for a whole process video. You have skipped out on a few basic steps that may seem juvenile, but it is important to add them. I have step-by-step anxiety. Meaning, I get stumped and frustrated if something is out of order, not right, goes wrong, goes in a different way than expected, given a curve ball. It stresses me out. XD If you decide to another bread making video tutorial, I suggest doing all stages. "This is the first stage of the peeping, you can add your additional ingredients here. We don't plan on that, so continue with the knitting process." ... "Ok, this is the second stage beeping. At this stage, the machine tells you about the option to remove the mixer-handle blade thingy. You can if you want. As we stated earlier in the video about the cons about leaving it in. We are going to leave it in for now. If you wanted it out. Take the dough out, then the mixer-handle blade thingy. Knit the dough by hand into a ball and put it back into the maker. Wa-lah. Continue with the rising step." ... "As you can see on the machine, it says, "rise". When you come back to the machine you will wonder why you don't hear anything. It's because it is during the bread rising stage. So, keep that in mind. Just let it do its thing until the timer goes down to 00:00".
I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I too have that same anxiety (which is why I can't stand quick cooking videos on Instagram and Tiktok), so we tried to do our best to go as step by step as possible. I will take that into consideration if another video is made! When it comes to other things made, there hasn't been that much more than the typical Italian bread. We did try a sweet bread once that came out pretty well, but haven't done anything really cool like deserts and all that good stuff.
what does it mean to make dough? what if you want gf dough? would i be able to remove the dough and shape and place in baking pans and bake in the oven? ???
That hook is not made for lifting the bread out of the machine. Its made for retrieving the paddle from the bottom of the loaf after the loaf is baked.
Our user manual states it is for lifting the handle. Do you have the same model as us? I'd be curious to see how you use it to get the paddle out, as we could use that if the bread is hot.
@@FattysFeasts I have 2 - a Panasonic and a Morphy Richards. If the paddle comes out with the bread, put the stick into the hole in the paddle and slowly pull it out of the bread - easy. The same if you're making dough. I tip my dough out and 50% of the time the paddle comes with it - same method as above. A lot easier and cleaner than using your fingers. I can only assume whomever wrote the manual for your machine didn't know what the stick was for so made-up a use for it.
Hello, I've never heard of the "no knead" recipe you mentioned in your other comment. As far as the beeping goes, you are correct that you can remove the paddle during that time. However, the main purpose is to tell you that you can do other stuff to the bread, such as adding other ingredients / seasonings, taking it out and reshaping it, or like you said, removing the paddle.
@@FattysFeasts Ohhhh you should try it. You can add whatever ingredients you want to the base recipe of flour, salt, yeast and water. There’s lots of instructions and videos online. I just made a cinnamon raisin loaf and it’s to die for. I just added a cup of raisins 3 tablespoons of brown sugar and a teaspoon of cinnamon. Sooooo good!
Hi Good video.Let me say I have the expensive one now. Had a less expensive before. It decided to die. Purchased the expensive thinking it would make better bread. It does not. So if you get. The less expensive one you will still get good results. Flour and yeast are so important and a good recipe. I prefer White Lily bread flour. It’s a softer flour. I also use instant yeast and keep it in the freezer. I make all our bread. No store bought. Thanks.
@@brendawatkins2626 We just looked at the instructions and you're right! You learn something every day! We just never use it, so we never thought about it. Typically we just leave the bread in there. Do you find there is an advantage to using the delay vs just leaving the bread in the machine?
@@FattysFeasts I think the delay buttons will work better for me because I like the cinnamon rasin bread for breakfast. I wanted to program it come on and start cooking while we sleep and be ready when we get up.. :) I think I've about got it figured out...
@@brendawatkins2626 Good point! Now do the ingredients get affected at all with all of them just sitting there? I'm just thinking about the yeast being in water and sugar or something like that.
Do you own a bread maker? If so, what kind? Also, what is your favorite kind of bread to make? Let us know below!

Panasonic BT10P 7.5$. Black decker B6000C 15$. CusinArt CBK200. 20$. The cheap one works best
The wire hook you said lifts up the bread pan handle is to pull the paddle out of the bread when it finishes cooking
The instructions say the hook is to raise the handle. If you use it to remove the paddle you could scratch the non-stick surface. I recommend a wooden spoon handle to remove the paddle.
I believe the other end of the wire hook is to remove the bread pan.
😂😂😂😂
@@budman0705exactly!
I have the same machine. It's easy to use and I don't miss paying $4 for a loaf of bread. It's also nice to make warm bread on a cold snowy day!
Absolutely! So cheap and easy to make. We love it!

got mine brand new still in the box never opened at Goodwill for 5.99, use it every week to bake my various breads. i love it.
It truly is one of the best purchases!

Don't put bread in plastic or in the fridge. Both will shorten it's life. There are inexpensive, canvass-like bread bags that let the bread breathe.
Good to know!
I have found the fridge helps my loaf stay fresher longer
You did an amazing job with describing how the bread maker works. Thank you for podying thid video.

The beeping is good if you want to add toppings to your bread.

whats the best flour to use? bread flour or all purpose flour or does it even matter. also can wheat flour be used with the same way? Thank you
It doesn't matter in our experience. We have never tried wheat flour, however, I can't imagine it would be a problem.
Excellent video thank you so much
Question: the machine first time use is stuck on a number & a color & even unplugging it won’t let me change. ?
I haven't heard of that. I'm assuming the machine is faulty and you'll need to return it.
is the water cold when being placed in the bread maker?
I’ve used this machine three times. All fell. Used recipe with machine. Any suggestions?
Can you do the regular ‘no-knead’ recipe of just flour, salt, yeast and water and not add the butter and milk?
There's a setting on this machine for "French bread" and on that setting you can use only those four ingredients.
Do you think it would be OK to use self rising flour?
I've tried to not use it, but maybe you could try it?
Great explanation for using a bread machine
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’ve made a French bread and wheat and it came out horrible. I’m wondering could it be the temperature of the water?
I had that issue before and if I remember correctly, that was the case.

I'll answer both of your questions here. Yes, the water is cold. You can use this just to make dough, so your idea should work fine!

Room temperature or lukewarm.
Ive done everything according to the directions but the machine will not go on. Any suggestions?
What do you mean by it won't go on?
The little metal stick is for removing the paddle from the bread (or dough) NOT for lifting the handle.

My bread pan inside the machine rattles loudly. When mixing the dough. Is this normal?
We have some noise in ours, but I wouldn't necessarily call it rattling. It just sounds more like gears cranking.
Could be your dough needs more liquid.
I heard that the beeping noise half way through is to let you know when to remove the paddle so you bread doesn’t bake with a hole in it. No?

Do not put bread in the fridge. And don’t put it in a ziplock bag. Do your research on homemade bread.
