The bread maker is very compact, which results in lower power consumption compared to an oven. These food processors are still considered energy efficient for the following reasons:
No long heating time, because the desired baking temperature is reached quickly.
Once the temperature is reached, it remains inside the sealed appliance so that reheating is rarely necessary.
The bread maker only needs 600 to 850 watts for its function.
To find out the power consumption of your bread maker, you should first look into the manual. Depending on the manufacturer, you will find information about the power consumption of the different programs.
If there is no information in the manual, you can easily determine the power consumption with an energy meter. All you have to do is plug the energy meter between the socket and the plug.
