I hear some of those machines can be programmed to start working 3 hours
before you want the bread done. so for instance if you want fresh hot bread
for breakfast, you set it up to start at 4 AM and by the time you wake up
around 7 the bread is ready. I think that's really neat! :)

I just got this two days ago and I am looking for a manual for it now. I
haven't gotten to use it yet, but it doesn't have a timer to set on it from
what my sighted friend has told me. I am not sure yet on many things about
it. They say it will beep when it is done so don't know if when you close
it up with the ingredients in it, it will start to time it and then beep
when it is done or what. I know they said it will be when finished. grin.
It has a button to push if you want the bread to have a lighter brown crust
or a darker one, so guess that would be to cook a little longer for the
darker crust. smile. I will let you know when I get it all figured out
myself. grin. Katie

Thanks Katie. Do you have to set the timer or does the machine set it up?
How do you know when the bread is ready? Sorry if these are silly
questions I'm just not sure.

The one that I have bought says it will make a beep sound when it starts
and another beep sound when the bread is done. It has some buttons on
the top of the lid, that can be marked in Braille. Like stop start,
lighter or darker buttons and some other ones. You can feel them well
enough and I don't see why it should be so hard, even though I haven't
tried it, but from every thing they are telling me about it once it is
marked or I can remember which button is which there shouldn't be a
problem with that part. From what the recipes that I read to make
different kinds of breads with it, it tells what ingredient to put in
when and etc. Then close the lid turn it on and it dose the rest. So why
wouldn't a totally blind person not be able to figure that out? It
doesn't sound hard to me and I cannot see what I am doing either. grin.

Hi, I'm thinking about making my own bread but not sure how accessible
bread machines would be for totally blind people. Honestly I've never
even seen one. :) Some of you say it can be done and some say it's
impossible. Please would you give me the pros and cons?
thanks
