      That bread slicer makes a big difference. thanks for demonstrating that. A lot of people get these machines used, which may not include instructions so the cleaning tips at the end of the video was a nice touch

    Bought my Zojirushi after this tutorial and LOVE this bread maker. Bread tastes SO good, the texture and color is beautiful, worth every penny AND so easy to use. No head scratching trying to figure out the recipes. I recommend buying this headache free Zojirushi bread machine.💗

    Your review of the Zojirushi Virtuoso Plus was the deciding factor Hubby used to surprise me with the machine! Having watched your video explaining how important you found it to be to place the stirring paddles in the same direction, helped us from the get-go. Last evening was our first beginners recipe for white bread. It turned out perfect....perfect crumb, perfect desired medium darkness, perfect level top, and perfect flavor. Thank you so much for such a great review. I'll think of you every time we eat delicious bread!

    Thanks for walking us through the Zojiruchi bread maker! We just ordered one today (it was incredibly hard to find one - so many stores had no inventory - even the manufacturer's site was sold out!). You were thorough and informative! I watched the Zojiruchi video earlier and wanted to point out 3 things: the measuring spoon has lines for 1/2 tsp and 1/2 TB; put the salt in a corner of the bread maker - don't sprinkle it around because it will prematurely activate the yeast; the reason the machine was so hot on top is because there's a heating element in the lid to create more even baking. Yeah, I wish I could have had a slice of your bread...truly!

    I have an older Zojirushi that I just replaced with this model after 7 years of almost daily use. I really enjoyed your video since I could see the new features while I’m waiting for my new machine to arrive. A couple of tips: Instant yeast is rapid or quick rise yeast. I noticed you selected the regular course instead of the quick rise one when you said you were using instant yeast. Using quick or instant yeast with the regular course will affect the shape of your loaf and how well the bread rises. I’ve also found that at least for me I need to add a couple extra tablespoons of liquid than what the recipe from the book calls for. That also affects the shape of the loaf. You can also use a little extra gluten and a dough conditioner, both of which help in shaping beautiful loaves. Hope these to-s help!

      Been doing great with that same yeast, regular settings, and using exactly the amount they recommend of each ingredient without any adjustments.

      @azcookin3177 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      @@anti-ethniccleansing465 it makes the entire loaf from mixing to baking in the same pan. Drop in the ingredients, select setting for type of bread, hit start and then walk away.i make yeast breads, banana and nut breads, pizza dough, along with different bread bases for making sourdough, English muffins, buns for hamburgers and hot dogs. With a house full of hungry teenagers and their friends, sliced bread paired with homemade soups, stews, chowders can feed a lot of people. Add pizza, lasagna, spaghetti, all get eaten up in a blink of an eye. I also mill my own wheat into flour, make my own pasta noodles. Another bread tip, adding 1-1/2 tsp malt powder per loaf keeps bread fresh longer. Bread won’t dry out or mold nearly as quickly. My family won’t eat store bought breads or pasta, any longer, says they tastes like dried cardboard. You really will save a lot of money this way, and it tastes so much better than processed food.

      ☘️ I totally agree with Hapachina’s preceding review! Your presentation was the MOST succinct & informative instruction video I have ever watched 👀! Normally within the first 4-5 minutes of a product video I find it is near impossible to comprehend what it he (usual) Barbie-doll actor is trying to relate, as it appears to me the (actor) is more focused on “presenting@ themselves versus the product. Instead, I found your review entirely Honest, Sincere, Professional & most importantly INFORMATIVE. And your demure & delivery was so relaxed that I wanted to listen & learn everything you had to say. Bravo to you for a job well done, Manufacturer’s would do well to hire you to promote their products. But with this said, given the honesty you project I would assume you would need to truly approve of the product you were endorsing. I rarely comment on You Tube Videos, but this time I truly was impressed! Enough to order the Zojirushi bread 🍞 maker & subscribe to your channel!

    Hello~ Thank you for making these videos I got my machine second hand and no booklet, and this is very helpful. One tip that I can share with you is to cut the finished bread with an electric knife!!! You can easily slice it while it is hot, and it will not crush it. it works great and the fresh hot bread that melts butter is super yummy. Best Wishes~ Patti

And one of the things I seen is that if you make sure your paddle are going in the same direction before you add all your ingredients then at the end your bread won’t fall on one side. It’s worth a try. I can’t wait to get mine. I love how you explained everything. Awesome

    @WaveOvenRecipes  4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Quick apology, I added the ingredients for the Chocolate Bread in the wrong order. I added them based on the process I had to use for breads in my old bread machine. But this Zojirushi uses a different order for adding ingredients. That may have also impacted the outcome. I would have mentioned this in the video if recognized sooner 🙇🏿‍♂️

    • @OGRH
      @OGRH 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I point them directly at each other an exact opposite direction bread always ends up in the middle... I’m sure it works pointing in the same direction but if you think about it it’s the same thing everything in between is chaos. Also if you do it this way the bread tends to knead better!

    • @WaveOvenRecipes
      @WaveOvenRecipes  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      The manual shows same direction and I have had great success doing just that. Same direction for both paddles.

    Hey again Darnell. I didn't realize that you have videos for your pellet grill too. Nice. So to update you on my search for a Zojirushi Virtuoso Plus, I found one earlier today. It was on CraigsList local here. The unit had not been used, but had a couple of small indents in the housing, not really noticeable. The woman selling it said that it was new in perfect condition and we settled on a price of $180, she was asking $200. Then when I got there and saw the blems, I got it for $130. I was a bit nervous knowing that I was taking a chance and had to drive 60 mi to get it. But I just ran it for a cycle, no ingredients and it ran perfectly. Just what I was looking for a blemish without the retail price tag and tax. Well, I don't have yeast now with the market baking shelves cleaned out, but I've got some ordered and should be here next week. In the meantime, there is a family her that bakes sourdough bread and has offered to give me a yeast starter that I can continue to nurture and use in the interim. Hey stay well. I'll try to get back and let you know how things turned out. Cheers, gary m

    Here’s a couple things to know to make some nice bread. You can add some powdered non-fat milk. On my wheat bread I use some wheat flour with the white flour. Also the salt controls the yeast rise. If you don’t feel you’re getting a puffy enough loaf, cut back on the salt just a hair. Also, honey will not make bread yeast rise the same as sugar so if you use honey, you have to use both or you don’t get the result you want sometimes it’s like you say it’s your your area experimenting for your humidity elevation all that stuff i’m thinking about going to a euro sheet to prom machine cause I want the bigger lol and I have to have bread all the time because I don’t have a stomach and it helps me to slow things down to get the nutrients out of my food better I ran out the other day and was out of money, and it kind of messed me up.

    Thank you for another great review. I have a Zojirushi that is at least 20 years old and still going strong. I was taught dough should be as tacky as a Post It Note and feel about the same as your ear lobe. I sometimes have to add a little more flour to get the right consistency. Your might try making sure your paddles are facing the same way before you start. That chocolate bread looks mighty good.

      Hi Lynn. I was fortunate to find a Zojirushi, exactly like Darnell's model on Craigslist. See my post above. Don't fret, so many Zojirushi models have sold in the last 6 weeks, that when everyone gets back to work, they will loose patients baking bread and start to dump them on Craigslist, Next-door etc. Keep looking every day, I found mine just an hour after it was posted. I also bought another, a once-used Amazon Basics 2 lb machine 5 days ago, got it home and the Instruction Book/Manual/Recipe Guide was terrible. This Zojirushi Instruction Manual and Recipe Book are excellent. Also the Zojirushi is made in Japan as the Amazon Basics made in China. Zojirushi are said to be the gold standard and suppose to be bullet proof. I heard another person on one of the bread/flour websites say that they have made over 1500 loaves in their Zojirushi before needing to replace the pan and paddles. Good luck baking. gary

I also make a lot of raisin bread, or cranberry etc. I hold out a little bit of the flour and mix with the fruit until the individual pieces are dry and don’t stick together. The machine handles them better that way so I don’t have to put them in by hand.

    • @WaveOvenRecipes
      @WaveOvenRecipes  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wow, that's messed up they don't offer parts.
      I would not personally recommend the Kuissential, now that I've started using this Zojirushi. The Zojirushi makes much better bread overall. Kuissential did send a replacement, and sent it faster than I expected. So I highly respect their customer service. If someone wants a low cost bread machine Kuissential is a good choice, but that comes with low cost bread machine results. It's a good starting point, then move to something like a Zojirushi
      At this point I am glad I got the Zojirushi with a good extended warranty, just in case. But most people say the Zojirushi's never break.

      My old bread machine had its own recipes, and I doubt they are applicable to this bread machine. But they provided their own for that bread machine. And the process for adding ingredients was totally different. So much, that I doubt you'd want to do it with the Zojirushi. But if you're interested in that old bread machine, I did a review on it here and their recipe book is on their website.
