ali-s Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Always get good results from my breadmaker, so image the shock of seeing this . Somewhere in the middle is the kneading paddle I'm too ashamed to feed it to the garden birds It weighs 1kg and is solid as a rock Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Wow! It's quite a shock when you lift the lid to find it's somewhat lacking in height, isn't it!! I've had that sort of loaf myself a few times too!! Amazing how heavy they are too ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Martin B Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 That's such a coincidence, my Mum has paid me to make her some bread, it is extremely slanted and is harder than usual! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theherd123 Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 When i first looked at the picture before i read your post i thought 'WOW i wish i could make bread that well' And you are disappointed with it I would be over the moon, mind you breadmakers and I dont get along too well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 I managed to do the same and also managed to make a crumpet like loaf full of big holes! apprently it was lovely toasted I couldn't bare to look at it. Craig. Was it dead/missing yeast? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted October 15, 2006 Author Share Posted October 15, 2006 I don't know what went wrong OH found the paddle in the middle The loaf is in the bin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Hmmm, now I see why Mum doesn't want a breadmaker and is happy tob uy it in. Much easier to make it by hand! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamsin Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 Bread from the bread maker is lovely when you eat it straight away (fresh) from the bread maker but if you dont it does go like a rock then you end up dipping it in soup as that is the only way you can eat it without breaking a tooth,guess its healthier than shop bread though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 15, 2006 Share Posted October 15, 2006 It's amazing isn't it? I make bread a couple of times a week in my lovele Panasonic breadmaker; most fo the time it turns out fine, but every now and then - for no apparent reason - I get a loaf like that. The ingredients are the same and everything Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted October 16, 2006 Share Posted October 16, 2006 I think it is due to the occasional rogue sachet of yeast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
