I tryed to make bread with raisins (and similar situation without raisins) by using 2250 Black & Decker model with one of the programs described in manual and it does not bake bread from the inside. I had to put bread in conventional oven to finish baking.

The Use and Care Manual for your Black & Decker B2250 All-In-One Automatic Breadmaker can be dowloaded in PDF from the following link:

Follow a recipe similar to that for Dinner Rolls on Page 19 where you would use the Dough Setting to allow the dough to be removed for shaping and baking in your regular oven.

Good luck. Thank you for using FixYa!

You may find that one machine (the old one) stipulates Active Dry Yeast and the other one (new) stipulates Rapid Rise Bread Machine Yeast. What are the main differences from your old recipe and a similar recipe in your new recipe?

Do you still have your old machine? If so try one of the recipes that failed in your new machine. If it fails again you may have bad ingredients. Old yeast, old flour, etc....that's the only thing I can come up with based on what you have described. If the loaf in your old machine turns out well then you should return your Black and Decker. You can find good deals on ebay on used bread machines that are tested and they show the loaf of finished bread. I have some for sale there, that I have baked in.

I'm not familiar with your particular model but some machines instruct folks to just put raisins in at the beginning....If you do that I would try it first with about 1/2 the raisins it calls for and see what happens.... they will probably disperse better by puting them in at the beginning....if this works please let me know....

Could be old flour or old yeast, not enough fluid. And the temperature of your kitchen.
Usually half a cup of raisins and usually there is a beep when to add, but can be added the second knead cycle. depends on the recipes. Also, I find that if you roll the raisins in a dusting of flour it helps them distribute through the loaf better.

This site has them for sale on line:

The paddle you need fits both the 2200 and the 2250 models.
