Hinari HB174 Breadmaker Reviews

To avoid stoggy or none rising bread, when putting ingredients into pan put in water then salt then all others finishing with yeast because yeast must not get wet or come into contact with salt until the mixing starts, this will make a difference to the rising of the bread which in turn will increase the "fluffiness" of the finished loaf.

ive had the same problem with our bread maker, although it isnt gooey in the middle it is doey, tastes fine, lovely when hot and not too bad toast but too stodgy for sandwhichs. have been given a recipe from some one else but problem is that it needs more flour and didnt really want to risk putting in too much ingredients and having a huge mess.

I have this breadmaker, My mum gave this to me as she no longer wanted it and I had been looking to buy one myself. She had mis-placed the instructions for the machine but did have the receipe book.

I have made a few loaves of bread in it following the receipes exactly however it sometimes comes out a bit gooey in the middle. Does anybody have any tips on how to fix this?

This breadmaker is pretty much already assembled when you purchase it - all you have to do is click the mixing 'blade' into place in the bottom of the bread tin. Then it's ready to go. The Hinari breadmaker is a combined mixer, warmer and cooker, which means that you don?t have to go through all the normal faff of ...  Read the complete review

Living on my own, I never thought I could justify another piece of kitchen equipment, just to make bread. However, having tasted some of my friend's home made bread, when I saw this machine selling for just 29 quid (Tescos), I couldn't resist. So what do you get for your money? This is a fully functional breadmaker, ...  Read the complete review

I bought my Hinari HB174SS Breadmaker from Tesco Direct for £45. Since our household now only comprises two people, I wanted to provide small (1.5lb) loaves rather cheaper than one can buy them in the local supermarket. This machine has lived up to my expectations. The results are somewhat variable but always acceptable. Wholemeal ...  Read the complete review

About a year ago my sister Sandyd bought a brilliant Morphy Richards breadmaking machine. I thought it was an extravagant 'toy' that she would tire of after a few weeks. That was before she gave me a loaf of bread to take home and try. It was delicious. I want a bread machine too! stamp - stamp - kick -scream (sorry, just me having a ...  Read the complete review

As with many other people, I was given this breadmaker as present. When I have time I do like to bake my own bread. So I thought that this would make my life a whole lot easier.This is what my Hinari present consisted of….. The model I have is HB164 and it comes with two thin booklets, nothing that can take pride of place on a ...  Read the complete review

I was given a Hinari Breadmaker for a Christmas present last year. As a former bakery worker I can make bread by hand, although I rarely do find time these days. My friends thought it would be a useful timesaving gadget. The machine made half-sized loaves by trundling a paddle through the added dry ingredients and warm water, gradually ...  Read the complete review

The Hinari bread maker is brilliant. I was bought it for christmas last year and I love it, so do all my friends and neighbours. It is so easy to use. If I can use it anyone can. You are given a recipe book with it and measuring cups and spoons, so there is no need to weigh everything out. You just scoop out the required ingredients into the ...  Read the complete review

I have had my bread maker for a couple of years now and I can count the number of times I have bought a loaf of bread since on the fingers of one hand. It is fantastic to plop a few ingredients into the pan, flick a switch, push a button, then 3 hours later have lovely fresh warm bread. It is so easy to do that even my son (who is 3) can ...  Read the complete review

It has several programmes including just dough making - take it out and make bread rolls, pizza etc. You can make cakes and even jam... If I am in a rush there is a fast programme which takes less ...  Read the complete review

I've been looking at Automatic Breadmakers for months now but haven't bought one because they are all about £100 and I wasn't sure if it would just end up being a gadget sat on the side gathering dust. This week in Makro I found a Hinari one for £41 - I checked the price and yes it was £41. I fair ran to the till. I ...  Read the complete review
