What is the fastest cycle? Can the 41200 make bread that fast?

Guess I'm about a year too late, but in case anybody else is wondering: There is a 60-minute rapid-rise cycle. This would require you to use rapid-rise yeast, which is always required in the 41077. The smallest loaf the 41200 claims to make is 1-pound, whereas the 41077 made only 3/4-pound loaves. I assume this is why the newer model takes longer in the rapid-rise mode.

I use mine all the time for bread. My recipe actually calls for about the same amount of ingredients you use but have found that, because this does such a good job in 3 minutes of processing, I have cut back to about 2 1/2 cups of dry ingredients and I get an even nicer, lighter bread. Let me also suggest that,even though the friction of the processing DOES warm the dough substantially, I've learned that starting with 95 degree (F) water helps the dough rise faster and better. I find that no less than 2 min nor more than 3 min of "run" time is perfect for WONDERFUL bread.

Adam, I've had my machine for several years now and have just reached the point where I can whip out a couple loaves of French bread or 1 dozen French rolls so fast it's amazing. One of the secrets is to get the French bread pans they sell on here with the holes in them. There are 2 and 3 loaf pans available. I'm very comfortable with the 2 loaf pans. Here's the recipe I'm using currently for both loaves and rolls: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/French-Bread-Rolls-to-Die-For/Detail.aspx The recipe is so easy I could do it in my sleep. I don't bother getting bread flour. Do add the last two cups of flour a bit at a time and let the machine knead for 6 to 8 minutes. The rolls also make a very special hamburger roll if you top off with sesame seeds after doing the egg white glaze. Believe me when I tell you your friends and associates will be amazed at your bread baking skills. There are dozens of other great bread recipes available though the link and also on Recipezarr.com. Don't forget to order the bread pans. They really will make your baking much simpler and easy!

The faster speed does a great job pureeing most foods. Unfortunately both units (our original purchase and then the replacement unit) broke within a few weeks. Now we have the Cuisanart BFM 1000 and it is amazing and better than the other brand in every way.

I haven't personally done it, but I believe so. I used it when I was in a hurry once and made mashed/whipped potatoes. It was actually faster than using the regular beaters.

I use a bread machine and it makes 1 large loaf. I add a little sugar and honey, best is it is sliced and freeze 1/2loaf for later.

Take a look at the book 'Artisan Bread in Five minutes a Day' (there is also an updated version of this book out as well). That's what I have been using in mine with great success and without having to go through the kneading and multiple rises.

This machine is made for chopping and shredding veggies and making hamburger, chicken salad and such . I believe bread dough would be too heavy a task and most probably would burn out t he processor. I would advise against it.

I personally have not used this machine for gluten-free bread. However, I did purchase the "Bread Machine Cookbook" by Beth Bensperger (Amazon books). I'll quote her chapter on Gluten Free Breads. "You need to have a strong motor in your bread machine to make these breads, one that is capable of handling whole wheat doughs, because the gluten-free doughs are like thick sticky batters. This book contains 3 recipes courtesy of Lisa Brugellis of Welbilt of America. Hensperger states that the "Welbilt Millennium bread machine models" all of which have a special Non-Gluten Bread cycle. Having said this, she also suggests that if you don't have this special cycle on your machine to use the Quick Yeast Bread cycle. The Sunbeam does have a Whole Wheat cycle, but not a Quick Yeast cycle. Hope this helps a little.

Yes, it has a quick bread option. I do not use it. The times are 1:21 to 2:10 depending on the type of recipe and crust you want. These times are for the recipes which came with the instructions.

I use a Hamilton Beach bread maker, it will even do cakes and jam. My bread rises well and is very tasty.

Absolutely! It makes large batches of bread that require 6+ cups of flour. I would buy anything else besides a Bosch.

It's fairly fast. I mean it has different setting for bagels, defrost etc. A bagel would take longer than let's say a simple slice of bread. If you have the room it may be better to get the 4 slice model. That way two different people can use the toaster @ the same time. It has separate controls and is pretty much like putting two 2 slice units into one body. I have the 4 slice model.

If you are just wanting a mixer that makes smaller batches of bread, cookies, cakes, etc. then the residential model is the way to go. I purchased my commercial mixer in April and I am loving it. It is a bigger mixer and can handle larger batches of bread dough. I can attest that it makes wonderful bread. I don't have to hand knead anymore!

I use it all the time for breadmaking. One loaf at a time, that is three cups of flour and I use the metal chopper, adding water and butter slowly while it is going until I have the right amount of water. I let it run about a minute to knead it. I do eight loaves per batch. I have two machines. one at the cottage. Cleaning is a pain; use a toothbrush. I used to use two mixers but they just aren,t able to take the abuse

I just ordered the machine for the GF feature...I will post my results as soon as I get it..I plan on baking a loaf of bread the same day it's delivered!

Absolutely! I make bread twice a week. I make a a good variety- very we pizza dough, whole wheat, sourdough,regular white bread to name a few. I used to have a Bosch, but the dough always climbed up the center post. The Verona has a huge bowl. The scraper and roller do an excellent job of mixing the dough. The dough never climbs out of the bowl. I can't recommend the machine enough. It's sturdy and extremely well made.
