Very easy to use
I have only had my Gopan for a few days. This first couple days our Japanese friend was helping us to translate some of the basic instructions and the recipe for the gluten free rice bread. Once we understood the basic settings, and which measuring cups/spoons that came with it were what we needed, it was very easy.
For the Gluten Free Rice Bread, there are very few ingredients needed. Rice, rice powder, water, sugar, salt, olive oil and yeast. We are trying to make a yeast free / gluten free bread, so it's just a little bit more difficult than the regular gluten free bread. Our first attempt with a yeast substitute didn't work out. Our second attempt with a yeast substitute did work, but the bread needed a little bit more leavening. However, it was edible, just a little more dense than it should have been and a little undercooked, due to the density. I warmed it up a little, put some oil and salt on it, and my kids loved it. My husband and I tried it too and both thought...
Needs step down transformer for use in USA
Until an American version of this product is released, this is what we have to work with. I've used several appliances in the U.S. that were made for Japan, and anything with a logic board will need a step-down transformer. You MUST use the transformer or you WILL FRY it - frying the board is not something you want to do after making an investment like this. MUST, MUST, MUST.
Good product but poor User manual because only in Japanese.
The product looks good and performs well but the User manual supplied was only in Japanese. I requested Supplier to assist on a basic English version of the User manual but received no response. So it was little like experimenting in the dark. After 4 tries we managed to eat an edible gluten free rice bread but i feel with a 100% correct recipe the taste & texture should improve. Now still looking for an English translation of the User manual especially the 100% correct recipe to make good tasting & good texture rice bread. Hoping to get there with some assistance from existing Users.
