Ask Casey: Buying a Bread Machine

“The biggest benefit to having a bread machine is that the kneading, rising, proofing, and baking will take place in one location. No extra bowls, no setting timers; you just put your ingredients in and push buttons.

Amortize that over the amount of time you’ll own the thing (I don’t know anyone who has worn theirs out, even after 20-30 years of use) and it’s a pretty convincing investment.”
