Kenwood BM350 Stainless Steel Breadmaker

Product Information

In common with many other users, we had problems with the pan retention - it jumps out during kneading, resulting in a non-loaf. The Kenwood’s accompanying recipe book contains a good range of recipes, some of them rather foodie.

The problem of the bread pan popping out was solved by bending the clips, but with the side effect of making it quite awkward to remove. Before putting everything into the bread maker, use warm water (make sure it is not hot cause yeast will be dead by the time you put the yeast into hot water)(water is the amount stated in the recipe), add in sugar (if receipe does not require sugar, just add a tbsp will do) into warm water, and add in yeast (amount stated in recipe).

I did one on programme 2 as recommended and it took hours, the next time I accidentally pressed the quick bake function and it was ready in an hour and tasted just as good. Choose between large, medium or small loaves (500 g, 750 gram or 1 kg) depending on your individual needs. Having read all the reviews on the Kenwood 250 breadmaker I am beginning to wonder if we are all talking about the same machine. Model numbers usually consist of a manner of letters and numbers, and may also include characters such as a slash (/) or a dash (-).

Here are some of our favourite, most moreish bread recipes- from everyday loaves to artisan showstoppers, and even some decadent sweet treats. Introductions are limited to motor finance, CarMoney Limited will pay us a fixed commission per paid out deal. It has an “eco” program that uses less energy and time – it bakes a white loaf or bread mix in 85 minutes – and it comes with a glossy book containing a wealth of foodie recipes.

Today, we have millions of users a month from around the world, and assess more than 1,000 products a year. Programmes: basic, wholewheat, sweet, French, packet mix, gluten free, dough, pasta dough, cake, jam. With a wide array of pre-programmed recipes, including artisan, gluten-free or pizza dough, cake and jam functions, raisin/nut dispenser, and three loaf sizes, there's not much it can't do. The kneading blade got stuck in the loaf, but this didn’t seem like it would be a perennial problem.

The level markings on the measuring beaker are a little bit ambiguous, but this is a small negative point for a generally good product. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice. The rapid white loaf works well with a good shape and colour but the programme is quite long for a quick programme at 2.The additional 5 "personal" programme settings allow you to set your own timings for each of the stages involved in bread making (pre-heat, kneading, rising and baking). Since then, we tried different breads and different "custom" combinations of ingredients and almost every night we put the bread up for the morning with the timer and it is ready and hot in the morning.
