Nikya, I, like you, are new to this forum and I recently had a similar dilemma. Nowhere on the internet can you find reviews on the Moulinex OW 600230 bread maker.
I was always skeptical of household bread makers, until I tried bread from a friend))
On the one hand I am a maximalist, on the other I am an engineer (in the past). Both of these qualities make me look for equipment with maximum technical capabilities on the principle "why? And there was a Schaub!" )) In order not to regret after the purchase that there is not enough functionality, the power of something else.
After rummaging around on the Internet and reading the general information about bread makers, I decided on the requirements:
- the maximum possible amount of baked goods, but with the ability to bake not only the maximum volumes
- maximum electrical power (there were times in life when, for example, "dead" and flimsy low-power Philips juicers simply stopped if you shove something dense, such as carrots, into it. Who switched from such to 1300 W Bork - they will understand me)
- maximum baking programs
- a manufacturer with proven models in the market.
I will skip how the selection of models was going on, but in the end there were 4 models left, among which were the Panasonic 255 and Moulinex. At the same time, for moulinex, reviews were only for earlier models. Even on 5002 I did not find many reviews.
But it should be noted that only
Moulinex OW 600230. Panasonic was swept aside immediately after he found in several places on the internet reviews that stirring knives do not always cope with a dense dough and slip. I'm not even interested in finding out what exactly is at stake, whether the engine is not pulling, or there is a belt drive with slippage. I believe that since this statement comes from more than one person, it means that this is a "bug" of the model.
Although I did not find any reviews about the 6002 model, I found a lot of flattering things about 5002, 3000, 3002 and made up my mind with a choice.
PRICE and purchase featuresThe manufacturer's website lists a certain insane price. Although there was an opportunity to spend almost 9,000 rubles, I decided to find it on the internet. I will say right away that it is generally impossible to find this model in Peter's stores (not on the Internet) even to touch it.
In the internet I found prices of 6400 in several internet-shops in Moscow and St. Petersburg, including the promoted and "ugly" (by experience) store 003. ru ... DIVORCE !!! I made an application immediately at 4, composted my brain for several days, promised delivery in a week, ended up with calls and a message that they say a mistake, a mis-grading, is out of stock, we can't deliver, I'm sorry, we can only "put you in the queue for the appearance of the goods, without a term "!!!!!
After that, the understanding came that the price of 6400 contains nothing but advertising in order to light up with a minimum price. The next order was made in a couple of stores with a price tag of 7400-7600. The result is positive, the first to call back from and said that it is in stock. I didn’t want to wait for delivery with impatience, I drove to them and took it myself on the same day. At the same time, I got stuck in a traffic jam, called them back and they waited for me, delayed for almost an hour!
=========================
Now on the stove:
some positive emotions!
The completeness is described on the Mulinex website. Goes:
- bake
- instructions with a couple of primitive recipes
- SEPARATE colorful book of 100 recipes with photos. This book deserves special attention. It is written so logically, clearly and precisely that you need to be a complete moron in order not to make bread without mistakes. Firstly, the bread can be immediately seen in the photo in its entirety and in section (in order to assess whether you want it ... with your eyes). In addition to the list of ingredients, explanations are written, for example, that powdered milk can be replaced with ordinary milk by reducing the amount of water and specific proportions are immediately given. The order of placing the ingredients has been written (which is important, for example, so that the tremors fall on the flour layer and do not touch water, sugar, salt). In short, a super book. Everything that is written in it - prepared on the first try and without errors - has been checked.
- beaker
- a plastic measuring spoon, on one of which is a teaspoon, on the other - a dining room. Transparent spoon with additional 1/2 graduation.
- a brush for smearing bread
- special knife
- "picking out" of the stirrer knives
- form for the main bread
- 4 additional forms (2 for buns, 2 for baguettes. Those for baguettes are designed for 1 mold for 2 baguettes)
- holder for additional forms
The dough is mixed with 2 knives (while many manufacturers have one)
bakes 750, 1000, 1500gr
keeps a baking program in memory for up to 7 minutes in the event of a temporary power failure
three crust colors
snooze timer
I stocked up with ingredients, baked 6 recipes in 6 days)) From the first to the last there were no mistakes. All the desired color, shape and taste))
Bread Maker Tips- all molds are covered with a non-stick coating, do not use iron spoons, do not wash them with a steel mesh
- if, after baking the bread, the knives remain in the mold, on the axles and cannot be removed - do not pick them, just pour water into the mold and let stand for 5 minutes. Everything will get wet and removed without effort
- before placing the ingredients, turn the knives in the shape towards each other for better mixing. (to turn the knives, the form must first be pulled out of the bread machine)
- all ingredients used must be at room temperature, and not from the refrigerator, otherwise the bread will most likely not rise as it should
===============
One tip. You MUST buy a scale! Electronic, with the ability to reset the tare weight and switch the measurement modes "gr, ml, etc."
Tips for choosing a scale:- if the minimum measurement limit is not specified, you can not call the sellers, but turn on the scales and throw a 10 kopeck coin on it. (they are all on the shelves with batteries and batteries usually last for several years. Plus, normal scales have the option of self-shutdown when idle)
- if the scales did not turn on due to dead batteries, I would not take them, as this indicates abnormal power consumption of the model and / or the lack of a self-shutdown function
- if the scales showed 2 grams, this is an accurate scale, if not, most likely they have a minimum measurement limit of 5 grams or more. Then decide for yourself.
- the control panel must be physically separated from the weighing surface! The fact is that many modern models have, for example, a solid glass surface with control buttons painted on the edge of this surface. The controls are touch-sensitive, the sensors are under the glass, but I would not recommend taking such. The "ambush" is that on such scales you get sick of dropping the tare weight, because when you touch the button, you press your finger on the weighing surface. Even before the scales fulfill your command, they begin to weigh the pressure from your finger))) As a result, they will not lose the tare weight, but much more))
- carry out experiments with a coin after the scales are installed on a flat surface and reset to zero by pressing the "Tara" button once
I chose the model "Momert 6847" (1gr - 5kg)
