Ranee, I just bought a new (cheap) Toastmaster - received yesterday -- and
it is a 1-1/2 lb. loaf. My i'-cheapo Oster which I really liked started
getting hot, so I decided to go for a new one, but they were too expensive
for my pocket book just to make pizza dough (yesterday when I got it, I
immediately made bread sticks).
My point is: The Other oster pan I'd been using even though it was a 2 lb.
pan, seems TWICE as big as this 1-1/2 lb. (Also the quality of the lining is
not really good enough to recommend.) I will use this for its intended
use -- pizza dough -- and maybe try it for a small rye loaf, but I am
wondering after watching it, if it really has the power for a rye loaf.
For the recipe, it calls for 3 cups of flour whereas my Oster was a 4 cup.
Now that doesn't seem like too much difference, but it is to me --
particularly I use 4.5 oz. for my cup measurement. It made about 12 bread
sticks and 1 good sized dinner roll.
I was going to buy the breadmaster at $70, but the reviews were not good.
Be sure and check the reviews out at amazon before you buy. I'm glad I
didn't buy the breadmaster (online at Costco for $70) because the reviews
are awful.
I'd think about it twice before I bought a bm with a lb. or 1-2/ lb. Pretty
darned small.
Let us know what you buy.
