I see posts talking about good BIFL items but I don't hear much about the other side of products that are bad or products you bought but don't even use.

I use bread machines for mixing the dough and resting and stuff and then bake in the oven on a pan. Am I crazy for that?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I just use a planetary mixer that can mix the dough. It uses a lot less space, and it can be used for multiple purposes. For resting, rising, i will just transfer it over to the pan and put it somewhere warm, like next to the radiator or in the oven on a very low setting.

Same here, I did make some amount of bread as a sort of novelty, but after a month most of my use came down to having it make my pizza dough for me. Did that for years.
