A bread making robot or breadmaker is a home appliance for turning raw ingredients into baked bread. It consists of a bread pan (or "tin"), at the bottom of which are one or more built-in paddles, mounted in the center of a little special-purpose oven. This small oven is usually controlled by a simple built-in computer using settings input via a manage panel. Most bread machines have stand-in cycles for rotate kinds of doughincluding white bread, mass grain, European-style (sometimes labelled "French"), and dough-only (for pizza dough and shaped loaves baked in a suitable oven). Many afterward have a timer to permit the bread robot to trigger without operator attendance, and some high-end models permit the user to program a custom cycle.To create a loaf of bread, ingredients are measured into the bread pan in a specified order (usually liquids first, next hermetically sealed ingredients layered on top) and the pan is after that placed in the breadmaker. The order of ingredients is important because the instant yeast used in breadmakers is activated by entry later water, fittingly the yeast and the water must be kept apart until the program starts.

The machine takes a few hours to make a loaf of bread. The ingredients are first rested and brought happening to optimal temperature. The ingredients are later turned into a dough by happening later a paddle. The dough is subsequently proofed using ideal temperature control, and then baked.

Once the bread has been baked, the pan is extracted from the breadmaker, rejection a small indentation or hole from the rod the paddle attaches to. The move of the the end loaf is often considered unusual, when many yet to be bread machines producing a vertically oriented, square or cylindrical loaf very every second from trailer breads; however, more recent units generally have a more traditional-appearing horizontal pan. Some bread machines are in the adequate rectangle disturb two lb loaf using two paddles. One of the Zojirushi models even has a heating element in the lid to beige the crust.

Breadmakers are often equipped behind a timer to govern in the same way as the breadmaking begins. This allows them, for example, to be loaded in the evening but unaided begin baking forward in the morning, to build a freshly baked loaf for breakfast. They can next be set only to make dough, for instance to be used to make pizza. Some can with be set to create additional things besides bread, such as jam, pasta dough, udon or mochi, a kind of Japanese rice cake. One of the most recent innovations is the capacity to mount up nuts and fruit during the kneading process automatically from a tray.[5]

Traditionally, breadmakers say you will surrounded by three and four hours to bake a loaf. However recently "fast bake" modes have become common additions, many of which are dexterous to fabricate a loaf in under an hour. The bread is generally not of as good quality as that produced by a longer program, but for many users this is a useful feature.

Some breadmakers sold in the 1990s had vertical pans, some horizontal. Today, the gigantic majority clear retail make horizontal loaves. For that reason, they manufacture a smaller, shorter loaf than their predecessors. It is more difficult to blend a long, horizontal loaf because the ends are inattentive from the mixer-paddle and gravity does not put up to the distribution of the dough. Some machines attempt a augmented kneading by using two paddles, one at each end. The vertical loaf machine may require a cutting edge powered motor, because the entire growth of the dough-ball is on the paddle as it kneads the dough neighboring the easy to use sides of the loaf-pan. Economy in production may account for the manufacturer's preference towards horizontal loaf-pans. Finally, a vertical loaf-pan yields a uniform slice from stop to end of the loaf rather than a loaf that is smaller at the ends.

Most of the best bread machines have a cool wall which usually protects the surface getting hotter during the baking process.
