Electric Breadmakers

[kingcobra]

As anyone any experience of using Electric Breadmakers via invertor ???. I am not sure how much power they use, but was wondering if it is possible?.

Also small 12 volt kettle`s, does anyone have any experience of using these and again how much power do they use?.

Many Thanks

My breadmaker has a 500w draw. The period for max current draw is about 1 hour. Thus abt 40amp/hr draw per loaf. So theoretically nothing to stop you if you must except for the amount of simultaneous draw from other equipment, and amount that you can pump back in -

I have often wondered about using a breadmaker on board in dough-mode only and then cooking with gas. It would certainly make bread-making a lot less messy, but I would want to disable the heating element in case someone pressed the wrong button.

Does anyone have any idea how much power the motor alone uses ?

I don't know how much power they use in bake mode; certainly more than I would be prepared to make available. However, they are well insulated so it may not be too exorbitant for some people.

We use a breadmaker when we have the genset running or on shore power. Tried to do what you want to do last night as I think it would taste better when cooked in the oven. Was disappointed when the little b****r started to heat up the ingrediants before starting to mix. the boss tells me it is something to do with activating the dried yeast so that the dough will rise on proving. Makes good bread though. /forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif
