Poland and Polish Discussion Group and Forum

Welcome to the original English language Poland and Polish discussion group board. This message forum is a place where English-speaking Poles, foreigners (expats) living in Poland, and anyone with a genuine interest in Poland can discuss and read the views of others concerning Poland. Subjects include: Polish news and current affairs; Life in Poland; politics; genealogy research; Polish culture and history; advice and tips on visiting Poland; Polish property and investment issues. The aim of our group is to increase awareness of wonderful Poland using the English language and allow and foster the honest debate and exchange of opinions on anything vaguely related to Poland and Polish - positive, negative and/or neutral! This discussion group is not an open-to-all public message board. Membership is by invitation only and therefore given that a fairly limited number of people have full access, it is more of a community blog than a straightforward forum. This application system was brought in to lessen the amount of spam and nonsensical and commercial posts made by casual visitors and off-topic and offensive posts left by a disruptive minority. To ask a one-off question about Poland or respond to comments made on this board without a password just email us and provided it is at least halfway sensible, we'll post it on the board for all to see and current members will try to respond!

Varsovian Dec 11, 07 - 12:45 PM	Bread I bought a bread maker last week. Absolutely brilliant. No mess, no hassle - just add the ingredients, it mixes and bakes. We've got the standard white loaf off to a tee now. Time to try other breads
Hans Dec 11th, 2007 - 12:54 PM	Re: Bread Some questions: What is the brand? How much did it cost? How long does it take to bake a loaf of bread? The idea of home-baked bread appeals to me.
Varsovian Dec 11th, 2007 - 12:59 PM	Re: Bread I remember it's a Moulinex and cost me 300zl. Got it from Saturn (not the planet). Even a complete idiot can use it - I'm living proof!
Hans Dec 11th, 2007 - 1:04 PM	Re: Bread How long does it take to bake a loaf of bread? Are the instructions in a sensible language? Why is it electrical products here, so often only have instructions in Polish ???
Varsovian Dec 11th, 2007 - 1:52 PM	Re: Bread Even German
offbeat Dec 12th, 2007 - 1:30 AM	Re: Bread Bread machines are very good, although making sourdough/rye bread has its problems. Avoid pre mix and buy your own high quality flours. Bread machines are also good for making pizza bases..
Varsovian Dec 12th, 2007 - 9:15 PM	Re: Bread 3 hours for a loaf, some time to cool. My machine also makes jam, apparently.
Another Ania Dec 16th, 2007 - 6:12 AM	Re: Bread It's one of those things you buy thinking what a wonderful idea, but never use.
Varsovian Dec 16th, 2007 - 1:12 PM	Re: Bread Not true - that's my electric slicing machine, my electric carving knife, my electric ... This one is actually useful - bread without mess or hassle, 2 mins work and almost no washing up.
Hans Dec 16th, 2007 - 1:16 PM	Re: Bread We will buy one tomorrow during our Christmas shopping trip in Berlin.
jon Dec 16th, 2007 - 8:34 PM	Re: Bread They're OK, but the bread often has an inferior texture. Many people (including me) just use one for mixing, kneading and proving and then pop the dough in a conventional oven, for much better results. They're good for pizza bases too.
Hans Mar 17th, 2008 - 9:21 AM	Re: Bread Thanks for this tip. We've finally used our machine and the finished bread is very very good.
