In a bread machine you can cook pastries at home, adjusting its recipe for yourself. The bread turns out useful, fragrant, very tasty. You can cook buns, muffins and many other flour dishes. What can be baked is regulated by the manufacturer, according to the functionality that he puts in the oven. The breadmaker herself kneads the dough, some are equipped with containers for adding ingredients after the start of cooking - dispensers, but they are integrated into more expensive models. I made a rating of models of the current year that have received approval from customers. I studied their advantages, noted the minuses, problems in operation.
