This Panasonic bread maker has a horizontal design and 31 automatic programmes. It makes white and wholemeal loaves, pizza and pasta dough, brioche, cake, jam and compote. There is also a setting for bread mixes with yeast, and 4 gluten-free programmes for bread, cake, pasta and pizza dough.
Manual modes let you set the time for cake mixing, bread kneading and fermentation. Butter is heated during mixing, so it does not need to reach room temperature first. With the bread mix programme, you add a pre-mixed recipe and water, then press start. A delay start timer can be set up to 13 hours ahead.
A yeast dispenser adds yeast to the baking pan at the right moment in the mixing cycle, keeping it away from liquids. A separate dispenser in the lid releases raisins, chopped nuts, olives or dried fruit automatically. Two sensors measure the room temperature and the internal temperature, and the programme adjusts fermentation, rising and resting times accordingly.
