Reviews Zojirushi BB-HAC10 Home Bakery 1-Pound-Loaf Programmable Mini Breadmaker

I really like this Zojirushi BB-HAC10 bread machine. The loaf is the perfect size for a small family. The different settings gives you a perfectly baked loaf of bread. I've used the dough setting to make pizza, focaccia, breadsticks and rolls.

Better than store bought bread. Zojirushi BB-HAC10 Home Bakery performed superbly; our first loaf was remarkably delicious. I am extremely happy with this purchase. So happy I came back to get bulk flour and yeast to make more. This is nothing like any of the previous bread machines I had, which made heavy bread that did not taste good.

My breadmaker came with a large white label on the right side (not shown in the advertising) that provides a recipe and instructions for making basic white bread. The mixing paddle is relatively small and thin compared to the paddles on other breadmakers.

Initially, I had some difficulty removing the mixing paddle for cleaning until I discovered there was a tiny hook on the breadmaker shaft that helps retain the paddle while you remove the bread from the bread pan. Counter rotating the paddle slightly allows it to be easily removed from the bread pan shaft.

The bread pan can be removed, inserted and locked in place very easily. The design allows you to place all of your ingredients in the bread pan prior to placing the pan in the baking chamber. This breadmaker makes a rectangular loaf of bread that provides a slice of bread that is about 20 percent taller and slightly narrower than a commercial loaf of bread.

It will provide you about 8 to 10 slices of bread depending on how thick you slice the bread. The design, quality, and construction of this breadmaker make it well worth the price. It provides a large variety of options for making bread, dinner rolls, cakes, cookies, pizza, croissants, jams and even meatloaf. I have had the Zojirushi BB-HAC10 Home Bakery 1-Pound-Loaf Programmable Mini Breadmaker for approximately 15 months.
