For the eggs, you shouldn't put that much water in the pan. The purpose is to steam the eggs, not boil them. Steam is hotter than the water. I've used an egg steamer for years and they work really well. Also, a tip I learned making egg McMuffins at MickeyD's - when making eggs in a ring, just after the white starts to set, break the yolk and stir it up a bit. It cooks more evenly that way and you don't end up with one big bite of yolk.

I like sillicone egg rings, you can push the top of the egg ring to help it sit in the oil a bit more, prevents the leaks (also make sure your pan is as flat as it can be on your element, IDK how flat that pan was or if it's the counter). How do you break the egg yolk in the egg ring (wash mold?) I'm assuming you want to avoid a metal fork to not scratch the teflon pan, but if you're REALLY careful just to mix and not scrape the pan is that okay?
The clip from the old Barshens vid fills me with such melancholic joy!! I loved what you, Ashens and the rest of the Barshens legends used to do. RIP old school Barshens
I really enjoy those kinds of videos, too - no clickbait-y "OMG this is the worst ever" or "best thing since sliced toast" but rather an honest "meh, can do some stuff pretty okay, but nothing to write home about".
Toaster oven, cast iron Dutch oven pot, induction burner/cooktop, and if you have money left over, something like a Crock Pot slow cooker or sous vide (for when you're feeling lazy and don't want to babysit something).
A little compact hotplate and toaster combo... A seperate hotplate and toaster would take up as much space and be more usable, but aesthetically this looks better and being able to move it all in one go, makes sense in a small tea kitchen or less.
Nah, just a blaupunkt is just Badge now, but the Blaupunkt part that did car stereos is incorporated completely into Robert Bosch GmbH (they owned Blaupunkt since ages anyways), so the heritage goes on - I actually used to work in what used to be blaupunkt‘s sales office
I would have absolutely loved having this thing in my dorm. When you use things like this a couple times you figure out how to use them and they work well. It's easy to be snobby about small products like this when you have a full kitchen.
Egg/pancake molds: I have a theory on how to make them work better. Dip the mold into the egg/batter, place on hot grill, then fill. I believe the dipped portion will seal the mold to surface. I'm too lazy to check.
For me it would take up far too much room in the kitchen to be worth it, even for free. It's just seems like a far too lazy and crappy product. I feel it would just make me too frustrated if I tried using it myself.
Standard can of beans has been around 400g for a number of years. Approx 40 years ago, they were 454g or 16oz as they were imperial measures. Around 40 years ago can sizes were reduced to approx 420g and then over the last 20 years, weight has dropped to the 400g region. Some even moving now to approx 390g as the standard can.
All to avoid raising the price, make the consumer feel okay about seeing the same-ish price that they grew up with. But someday I think someone's going to drop in and steal their lunch with a 454g (1 lb) of beans... but then again brand loyalty can be pretty strong. Even if you're only getting 390 g of beans from Heinz, you know Heinz, not the new guy who's offering you 454g of beans at a higher price.
Heinz Australia NewvZealnd are now a paltry scabby 300g.. Their australian made competitors SPC are 425g and dominate sales now. Its not shrinkflation but bastardry and theft. Next they will be chinese
Love your videos. I bought the Ninja Turtles pizza cookbook for my nieces 9 year old daughter. It was a huge hit, she had a pizza all day, cooking pizza's for every meal of the day for the family!
Perfect for a camper van or students. I know someone who has one similar, in fact almost identical except its "made" by Swan or Tower. They use it all the time (tiny tiny kitchen) and no probs
Definitely needs temp control and also needs a riveted handle for the skillet. I would totally see a "half pot" so instead of one big tin that you put the beans in it has two half pots. Needs two smaller heating elements instead of one larger one.
Using a paper towel instead of a slice of bread to wipe the tomato residue off the hot plate was a Rookie move - that's the best bit! 😂 I'd give that machine 1/10. 😜
A lot of recognisable brand names are like that these days. Asda sell polaroid as their "own brand" or instead of putting Asda on a Tv rather. Argos do bush. I think it's just a case of buying up old brand names to try and suggest quality.
Often its blatant misuse of a trademark. Eg blaupunk TM is for tvs. No tm for cooking appliance. Blaupunkt is not otherwise a business name. Or ttge chinese co paid a few grand for license to use the name. GM cars are an example. The old car company name was bought for little
On a positive note if you could control the tempreture of the frying side it would be ok ish its still a bit small for frying, good if you had a caravan or a small kutchen
Combo appliances: 1pc breaks and it's pretty much useless. I'm still for less gadgets but the part that breaks, now you need to replace it and so on and so on...
Blaupunkt made some cracking stereo's in the 80's but if you had one in your car it would not be there for long - Think it is time to have another change around
Glad this got suggested to me! Been a while that a video of yours has been suggested to me now that I think about it. A bit strange considering I'd obviously want to click it.
i think you're meant to steam the eggs so less water so it can boil the water into steam with the small heater to get the hit conduction going without losing all the heat on the sides
So, Barry, I have to give you credit for a bit of a breakthrough at my house. We finally went and got ourselves an air fryer. We went with one that's got more of a toaster oven configuration from the people who make the Instant Pot. I put it through its paces a bit yesterday, just to see what I could pull off with it, and I've got to say that I'm really pleased so far. Our problem is that our oven has been becoming really unreliable, to the point where a 75°F difference between what the thermostat on the oven is reading versus what the oven thermometer that we'd gotten a few months back is reading isn't uncommon. That's getting to the point where we're concerned for food safety. Still, your videos about the air fryers helped me realize that they were a viable option for bridging the gap between now and when we're able to replace our range. It got in on Saturday, and I spent a good bit of yesterday putting it through its paces. The one that impressed me the most was how well it did baking a loaf of bread, just using my bog-standard bread recipe as though I was using a regular oven, using my Pullman loaf pan. It came out pretty much perfectly, and I now know that I can play around with it some. So, thank you for helping me find a workable solution to a problem that was driving us properly crazy.
Blaupunkt suffered because of factory fitted car stereos. They were the gods of In car entertainment. I think there is a market for campers tho. £40 isn’t too bad (of the handle doesn’t break). Top tip. Cut sausages almost in half before you cook. Easy.
Hiya Barry and Mrs Barry!!! I think the machine did alright, and would do for someone in a dorm. But Barry I'm not trading in my cast iron skillets for even an air fryer! I can cook, toast, roast, boil, bake, even got a cast iron wok, a cast iron for making tortilla's on, and most of them have been in my family for generations! I can take them to cook while camping, they are great for protection to. Never go near an angry woman with a cast iron pan. LOL Best of all the cast iron does not have coatings that flake off, and poison a person. I'm going to enjoy every video you post because your the best cook, and family man around yt! Good video today! Thank you!!!
It's just a shame they can be so tricky to clean. I agree with avoiding any Teflon, or "non-stick coating" cookware, as that stuff is very harmful for you if ingested over the long-term. I got a granite saucepan recently - not sure how granite would fair for a frying pan though (probably take far too long to heat up).
is the frying element thing bottom not flat? also, i would have poured as much pancake batter in as needed to completely cover the bottom and make elopngated pancakes.
Barry please please make Hungarian Lángos, it's is fried dough that tastes delicious, you can have many different toppings, usually sour cream and cheese, but you can have anything! Caution they're addictive!
Other than the extremely dodgy handle, and the uncontrollable heating element, it's not terrible, it's just sort of pointless, which I suppose is what you expect really from kitchen gadgets. It's the "all in one but not all at once" aspect that you rightly pointed out, which makes it less useful than just having a frying pan, small pot, and a toaster instead. If I were going to make some wacky breakfast machine, just for a laugh more than anything else, I'd have something I could set up the night before, go to bed, and have it start cooking on a timer, just before I wake up, so I could wake up with breakfast already made. Kind of like a Teasmade, but for the whole breakfast. And hell, let's also have a Teasmade section in there too. Why not? Obviously this presents a few challenges, such as the possibility of burnt food, or waking up to a burning house, so there would need to be a lot of safety measures in place, monitoring temperature etc. There would also need to be a mechanism to move and/or flip the food, to ensure even cooking. Most importantly it would need to be way bigger and have more cooking sections, so that each component could be cooked and ready at the same time. Right now, it's basically just a one-ring hob and a toaster. Not very useful.
I guess it would be useful for someone who always has a full English breakfast and who doesn’t have stovetop burners, a toaster, a grill, a saucepan or a frying pan, and who doesn’t mind being very, very careful not to disengage the handle. That person is not me!
I don't care for eggs, so I don't know much about how other folks cook them. I watched Julia Child in the 60s on tv boiling eggs and she never tried to stand them upright. And I've never in all my 70 years of cooking and reading cookbooks seen anywhere where it's necessary to stand an egg upright to boil it. there must be some UK egg boiling gizmo that I'm totally unaware of. Otherwise this was a hilarious romp through Chinese - Germanish breakfast inconvenience technology. It's pretty Blau-sy Period (punkt). All the best to all of you Jim Oaxaca Mexico
Cans were always 440g. Then started to shrink to 400-425. Now under 400 seems to be happening. Heinz Australia and NZ and its just 300g. There was a family size that was approx 550 but only tomato beans and spaghetti in tomato

Love your gadget videos Barry!😊😊😊
So it's an okay toaster stuck to the side of a tiny, crappy hotplate.
I think if they put that on the box it would have interesting results!
Since when has marketing been bluntly truthful?
A not so hotplate lol
As usual, if you haven’t got a stove get an induction hot plate and a toaster oven, it’s amazing how far that will get you.
@@chrisa2735-h3z More of a suckplate.

@@sachyriel Yeah, just use the corner of the spatula or whatever, you don't have to hit the bottom of the pan, just spread the yolk around a bit.
I quite enjoy the big bite of yolk. sort of like the middle of a cinnamon roll, it ends up being the best bite for me.
I came here to say the same thing 😀
The clip from the old Barshens vid fills me with such melancholic joy!! I loved what you, Ashens and the rest of the Barshens legends used to do. RIP old school Barshens

Barry! The max fill line is not for eggs, it's the general max fill line. Only put water one finger high, that way you steam your egg.
You got funny lookin sausage!
I think a stove, pot , pan and a toaster would be a whole lot better choice.
Toaster oven, cast iron Dutch oven pot, induction burner/cooktop, and if you have money left over, something like a Crock Pot slow cooker or sous vide (for when you're feeling lazy and don't want to babysit something).
A little compact hotplate and toaster combo... A seperate hotplate and toaster would take up as much space and be more usable, but aesthetically this looks better and being able to move it all in one go, makes sense in a small tea kitchen or less.
No, these all-in-one China gadgets are totally worthless.
read the blumming manual! the max fill line is just when the pot is used for other things, when the egg tray is in you just fill it to the egg tray
That bit with the eggs was comedy gold. It's like me trying to put my life together, but lower stakes.
Looks cool ! For those who have a small space it would be handy.
Nah, just a blaupunkt is just Badge now, but the Blaupunkt part that did car stereos is incorporated completely into Robert Bosch GmbH (they owned Blaupunkt since ages anyways), so the heritage goes on - I actually used to work in what used to be blaupunkt‘s sales office
That's awesome
I've never actually seen a Blaupunkt product that wasn't total junk.
This might be good for dorm rooms that allow hot plates.
Yeah it's pretty multi-functional I guess!
@@mrbarrylewis it sure is!😊😊

I love that you give these to your patreons. A great way for a few lucky folk to try something new, and you dont end up with a shed full of gadgets!
The mental gymnastics you do to convince yourself something is good, is very impressive.
A bit late but I just tried your pan au chocolate recipe and it turned out so good so thanks a lot!
Love that recipe, nice work!
I totally agree thanks!
These cheap gadgets just show the power that you can get for very little. Nice on Barry!
Definitely needs temp control and also needs a riveted handle for the skillet. I would totally see a "half pot" so instead of one big tin that you put the beans in it has two half pots. Needs two smaller heating elements instead of one larger one.
Great review! What I would have given to get my hand on one of these 15 years ago, for my Dorm room when I was a student....
0:09 You have never sounded more british barry... and i love you for it!
Cheers guvnor
Using a paper towel instead of a slice of bread to wipe the tomato residue off the hot plate was a Rookie move - that's the best bit! 😂
I'd give that machine 1/10. 😜
I’ve got this and its banging haven’t had a problem with it i don’t have an oven only a small one so it really is great
Every time I see products like this it's like a throwback to Ronco adverts of the 70's.
Enjoyable and entertaining at the same time. A BIG thumbs up.
I had to check but yeah heinz beans have been 415g at least sonce the 90s when they had 33p on the can.
That handle of the pan reminds me of the handle of a trangera pan I used when camping
Stanley sold their name too, look forward to you using their combo drill/blender
We love watching your videos why we make soap! Thanks! ❤❤

"This machine just made that", but you could say that about a frying pan, and it'll even make your toast/fried bread.
On a positive note if you could control the tempreture of the frying side it would be ok ish its still a bit small for frying, good if you had a caravan or a small kutchen
I love how Barry thinks a heaver egg means it's cooked more. Brilliant!
I think the only thing to worry about is keeping fluid from getting in the toaster ,but it has a lid so it's a bit better
Handle fits from the top maby.
I have a Blaupunkt 32 inch tv. It's 14 years old and. Still works. 📺🎉🐸
Awesome Video Barry Lewis
Eggs don't get heavier as you cook them. Ergo, you can't tell how cooked and egg is by 'its weight'.
You could do the spinning thing though
The brand blaupunkt also do televisions aswell,quite a good brand I would say
Woo! Another funky kitchen gadget video!
I have those exact same shapes I used them to make pancakes with my grandbaby
I used to have that brand of CD changer in my car back in 99!
Combo appliances: 1pc breaks and it's pretty much useless. I'm still for less gadgets but the part that breaks, now you need to replace it and so on and so on...
That is a good point!

TBF for someone without a proper kitchen (eg; a student) this would be amazing - I'd love one in my room lol
Wash it?
If you want to do cooked eggs in the shell, don't boil them, use a steamer. Very precise control every time.
That look on your face mate is pure gold! What am i doing guys!😂😂😂😂
You sold me with it!😊😊😊
This would be good for hotel visits and cooking outside of room
9:40 in asia thats actually considered a soft boiled egg.. i was also quite surprised :D
i think you're meant to steam the eggs so less water so it can boil the water into steam with the small heater to get the hit conduction going without losing all the heat on the sides
That makes sense, just followed the instructions to fill it to the line indicator, maybe different size eggs would help too
Yay for a new gadget video. It’s like you knew my back was hurting and needed a laugh. 😂
Ah Blaupunkt, had one of those in my old Nissan - no wait that was a Stereo.
Aside from boiling the egg, most late model toaster ovens could cook everything you made in this video.
Well it wasn't for boiling eggs, he just is a muppet and over filled it because it's for steaming the eggs
Would be handy for a student or a smaller apartment/flat
This would be ideal for camping - Would it be possible to hook this up to my car somehow? Power inverter?
Yep, looks like you got Blau- Punk't.
Katherine, that is gold! lol
So, Barry, I have to give you credit for a bit of a breakthrough at my house. We finally went and got ourselves an air fryer. We went with one that's got more of a toaster oven configuration from the people who make the Instant Pot. I put it through its paces a bit yesterday, just to see what I could pull off with it, and I've got to say that I'm really pleased so far. Our problem is that our oven has been becoming really unreliable, to the point where a 75°F difference between what the thermostat on the oven is reading versus what the oven thermometer that we'd gotten a few months back is reading isn't uncommon. That's getting to the point where we're concerned for food safety. Still, your videos about the air fryers helped me realize that they were a viable option for bridging the gap between now and when we're able to replace our range. It got in on Saturday, and I spent a good bit of yesterday putting it through its paces. The one that impressed me the most was how well it did baking a loaf of bread, just using my bog-standard bread recipe as though I was using a regular oven, using my Pullman loaf pan. It came out pretty much perfectly, and I now know that I can play around with it some. So, thank you for helping me find a workable solution to a problem that was driving us properly crazy.

Just video as always ✌️👍 I'd recommend piercing the eggshells before boiling them in this situation
Hiya Barry and Mrs Barry!!! I think the machine did alright, and would do for someone in a dorm. But Barry I'm not trading in my cast iron skillets for even an air fryer! I can cook, toast, roast, boil, bake, even got a cast iron wok, a cast iron for making tortilla's on, and most of them have been in my family for generations!

It's just a shame they can be so tricky to clean. I agree with avoiding any Teflon, or "non-stick coating" cookware, as that stuff is very harmful for you if ingested over the long-term. I got a granite saucepan recently - not sure how granite would fair for a frying pan though (probably take far too long to heat up).
I’ve just seen a toaster advertised that you need to try. Can I send the link on patron? I watched the advert and instantly thought of you 😂
yep!
is the frying element thing bottom not flat?
also, i would have poured as much pancake batter in as needed to completely cover the bottom and make elopngated pancakes.
Barry please please make Hungarian Lángos, it's is fried dough that tastes delicious, you can have many different toppings, usually sour cream and cheese, but you can have anything!
Caution they're addictive!
"I digress, I digest!" I'll be using that a lot from now on! 🤣
I don't need a gadget which requires Barry's level of skill to use.
Only eleven seconds in and I don't think I'll be buying one of these, lolz
lol! It works hard to be fair, but could be better!
2:11 aaahhhh barshens memories
Seems like it'd be handy in a dormitory, or in one of those apartments where they only installed a 2 burner stove to save room.
I mean it looked like it was a pain in the asw, but it does look like it actually worked given that's the first time you've used it.
Awesome device for small rooms,I have to rent bedrooms and sometimes can't use the persons kitchen..
"Maybe get it if you want" Endorsement of the century! lol
Barry those oven mitts are due for a replace ya think?
and I watched that barshens episode recently lol amazing callback edit
When he said "Blaupunkt, weren't they..." I thought he was going to joke "...the guys who did Harder Better Faster Stronger?"
Damn, missed a prime Dad joke opportunity!

Blaupunkt is owned by a company based in Luxembourg, they outsourced manufacturing to China.
It's a toaster and a hotplate, and you've already got a toaster and a hotplate...😀
that thing is huge. I have neither the counter nor cupboard space to store something of that size.
Thanks!
Why boil the water before filling? Doesn't the go a bit against of using one device?
I dont always catch yalls videos, but when I do it seems to be like an hour after you post! TY for another fun video!
Greggs chicken bake recipe!!!!
Great shout Chloe! Must be scolding hot in the middle
Agreed
that looks pretty good for someone without a stove
I want the 3-in-1 breakfast station. Toaster oven, grill, coffee maker
I think I'm staying with my toaster, induction hob and frying pan.
I guess it would be useful for someone who always has a full English breakfast and who doesn’t have stovetop burners, a toaster, a grill, a saucepan or a frying pan, and who doesn’t mind being very, very careful not to disengage the handle. That person is not me!

Can i listen to the radio on it
Maybe for a building site or a poorly equipped office, but at home I have all those gadgets in real version.
I don't think beans were ever 500g.
No cans have always been 400g
The cans are the same size, they just changed the international standard for how much a gram weighs. They're trying to hide inflation.
Cans were always 440g. Then started to shrink to 400-425. Now under 400 seems to be happening. Heinz Australia and NZ and its just 300g. There was a family size that was approx 550 but only tomato beans and spaghetti in tomato
