About this deal
By investing in the KBS Large 17-in-1 Bread Machine, you’ll save money on expensive bakery bread while enjoying the convenience of fresh, homemade loaves at your fingertips. What we didn’t like: Even though this machine advertises a 2-pound capacity, we found that larger loaves were very tall, which made them harder to slice and more awkward to eat. Home breadmaking also allows you to customize recipes to accommodate dietary restrictions or preferences, making it ideal for those with gluten sensitivities or specific nutritional needs. Usability and Cleanup Tests: We evaluated each bread machine’s settings and display and how easy it was to assemble the paddles and pan.
Crowded interface Editor's Note: This review was updated on June 7, 2023, to note that the KBS Large has been rebranded to the KBS Large. The all-stainless steel construction guarantees sturdiness, making it a reliable companion for your baking adventures.In conclusion, the KBS Large 17-in-1 Bread Machine, 2LB All Stainless Steel Bread Maker is a game-changer for home bakers.
There’s something undeniably comforting about the aroma of freshly baked bread wafting through your home. Both models struggled in the first 20 minutes of mixing to fully incorporate all of the dry ingredients and would have benefitted from having another paddle or a square pan, like the other models we tested. Many bread makers have a viewing window in the lid so you can check the progress of various cycles without lifting the lid. But despite the fact this machine has no dishwasher-safe parts, we found that they were pretty easy to clean by simply wiping them with a damp cloth.
Usually, unplugging the machine causes the internal memory to reboot and wipe out all previous programming. But several spots in the center were barely cooked, and as we ate our way out from the center, the loaf became more and more dry and unpleasant. Unfortunately, there’s no single answer to why bread from a bread machine is dense, but many models have a troubleshooting guide to help you adjust recipes.
