When you work out the amount of electricity they use it is far cheaper to buy bread in the shops. Bread makers are for rich people.
... thats fine by me but please dont post twaddle.
Just to prove the point i made about the expense of the electricity. If you click the link to the panasonic manual below it says it takes between 3 and 6 hours to make and bake the bread. 5 hours if you want whole wheat bread. (Rest, knead, Rise, Bake are the functions of a Breadmaker) see page 4 of the manual below.(bit slow opening this link so be patient)
It's not fair to talk about nightsaver electricity because you also pay a service charge every 2 months (approx.25 euro) so you have to factor this into the cost. Electricity costs about 20c a kwh including vat normally,(20cent x 5hours x 1000watt breadmaker) so that's 1 euro of electricty.
1 euro per loaf in electricity and that's before you buy wheat and other ingredients.
If you use the breakmaker for baking only, then just put it in the oven after your roast on a Sunday. You don't need to buy a breakmaker.
I'm not sure what "twaddle" means as i'm not rich and posh
Not sure of the exact difference but there is a similar device which works more or less like a 'slow cooker' - I think Argos have them - and you can cook all sorts of meals - soups, casseroles, roasts etc as well as making bread.
Might be a more versatile option that's all - we're going to get one of these.
