Multicooker Dex DMC-60 (reviews and discussion)

At 80-85 * you can simmer anything, including milk. And then you don't need a slow cooker. The existing mode of languor is, as it were, a topsy-turvy: from low temperatures it slowly approaches high temperatures, although languor in our understanding is bringing to a boil, and for a few hours it is transferred to 80-85 *.

I, after reading about slow cookers, was glad that our mode of languor is like in slow cookers: it slowly heats up and, and although they explained to me that the temperature there, in interaction with the ceramic coating of the saucepan, gives a super taste, and in dex it is not so
but I am not upset, because it is still great to languish - and the porridge-peas do not run away, and it is tastier.

just the saucepan is busy for a long time while languishing

IRR, it's not me, brother. The child is tiny, you need porridge. And they themselves love fried dishes. And they also want a timer so that you can safely leave the unit with the task and go for a walk with the child. So the rice cooker, I'm afraid, is not quite what you need. But in general, I see, their requirements in one unit is a utopia. For anyone, you will either have to give up something, or acquire two units: one for milk, one for the rest.

It seems to me to cook porridge only for a child in a 4L saucepan is irrational, especially if the rest of the family does not eat porridge (like we do). I have a small child, so on the timer I often put meat on stew and steamed vegetables while we walk in the afternoon. And cook any porridge in a small saucepan separately in the morning and in the evening. Although the Dex 50 changed to 60 precisely because of the porridge regime.
In any case, for a family with a small child, I think the Dex 60 is just a godsend: there is a manual mode that can be adapted for anything, like yogurt. In extreme cases, porridge can be steamed or in a water bath.

Good evening everyone! I want to report on my experience in baking bread.



Recipe. flour 700 gr (this is 4 cups 250 gr)
water 300 ml
sugar 1 table. the spoon
dry yeast 7 g (2 teaspoons) (I take the Premium 100 g-cost about 5 UAH)
salt 2 tea. spoons
the oil grows. 4 table. spoons
I pour warm water into a large bowl, sprinkle the water with yeast, when they swell slightly (after 5 minutes) add sugar, salt, sifted flour, knead the dough, then when the dough is already kneaded, add vegetable oil and continue to knead until the butter is completely absorbed into the dough , and it will not become homogeneous and elastic and will not come off your hands. (it takes 20-30 minutes). I form the dough into a bun, sprinkle with flour, cover with a clean towel and put it near the battery. After an hour, I knead, turn over, sprinkle with flour and leave for another hour. Then I knead it again, turn it over and leave it for another hour (it can be 40-50 minutes). Then I knead, form a bun, grease a multi saucepan slightly spread. oil and set in manual mode at a temperature of 40 degrees for 20 minutes. Then for another 15 minutes at a temperature of 60 degrees. Then, without opening the lids, I turn on the baking for 1 hour. Then I take out the bread, turn it over and bake it for another 20 minutes. I take it out, let it cool and you can eat!

Ltnusik, well done!
By the way, here's another confirmation of the need for 40 and 60 degrees in the "manual" mode

[Yara]

Yara, Thank you! I also want to add that the output is a kilogram loaf, the cost of which is 4.20-4.50 UAH. (Electricity cannot be accurately calculated). I also bake this bread with the addition of rye flour (200 grams - rye flour, well, 500 grams of wheat, I have the highest grade, since the first one cannot be found on sale, and real bread is baked from the first grade, these are loaves and buns from the highest). And when I bake with rye flour, I need more water by 30 milliliters. It grows so high, sometimes to the very lid.The family fell in love with homemade bread. In manual kneading, I found such advantages for myself: when you constantly deal with yeast dough, the skin of your hands is not so dry, otherwise I did not know what cream to smear with, and most importantly, there is something inexplicably beautiful when the whole family eats bread that the hazyayka herself kneaded, it was herself, and not a dough mixer, mixer, or bread maker ...

[Ltnusik]

Ltnusik , well done, wonderful homemade bread is a class, and even hand-mixed
Tell me, what is the difference between manual kneading, if part of the flour is rye? and how long do you knead?

I'm still studying this topic, maybe someone will come in handy
Rye bread in a slow cooker

Girls, I'm talking about "foaming and spitting" cereals. So that the porridge does not run away, including milk, I install a hinged double boiler in the MV. It settles the foam.

[nimart]

Tell me, what is the difference between manual kneading, if part of the flour is rye? and how long do you knead?

nimart, rye flour "asks" for more water. So, if the rye flour in the dough is 200g, then I add 30-50ml of water. If rye flour is half, then water plus another 50-70 ml. Mixing time 20-30 min. Stir until the dough is smooth and elastic.

And I have another question about yoghurts. Is whey a sign that the yoghurt is overcooked, or poor fermentation, or what? Thanks to everyone who responds: hi: I read the topic at first and did not see the answer to my question. I use Vivo's starter culture, homemade milk, the first yogurt (mother's starter culture) turned out well, but from it it's not very much

Overexposed. Re-sourdough is ready two times faster than the first batch of yogurt. Therefore, you need to look much earlier.

Is the lid dishwasher safe?

I have my lid and saucepans.

Good day to all! Happy holidays!
Thank you for your help in mastering the "unit". I have finally mastered borscht in the cartoon. Simple and delicious. I pre-steamed the beets, cut them, sold them with lemon juice and added together with tomato juice 7 minutes before the end of cooking. And garlic at the same time. The color and taste and aroma turned out to be wonderful. And this morning before work, in 10 minutes I cut the vegetables, fried them, poured barley groats, poured water for stewing. The husband then only turned off the cartoon, pressed the button, opened the lid and ate the soup! For two months now I have had a cartoon, and I'm still happy, as on the first day! What I wish everyone! And in general, more joyful moments in life !!!

Hello, help me decide. I choose between Dex60 and Liberton 05. I want a bigger bowl, the family is big. And then they write for 5 liters, but in reality it is much less. I'm from Ukraine. Thank you.

Who said that much less is real? Well, even if you don't add half a liter to the side there, it's not much. Liberton is larger if volume is important.

Thanks for the answer. I can't decide in any way, we have three children, so we need a bigger pot, cook mostly porridge, the second, we hardly eat fried, I bake it in my favorite electr. oven. Simply, if Liberton, I can take it now, but I need to dig a little bit for Dex, but I want to take it once and not regret it. What do you advise?

Tell me, what is the real volume of a ready-made dish (for example, soup) in Dex 60?

[annnushka27]

annnushka27
I would take Dex only because of the number of modes. It is more versatile. And the difference in 1 liter will not be very noticeable. Even 4 liters may be better, since, for example, the soup was eaten at a time in Dex, and in Liberton it may stay neither here nor there, or it may not. You will decide on the approximate amount that your family eats at a time.

Real volume? Well, three or three and a half liters.

Thanks for the answer. I can't decide in any way, we have three children, so we need a bigger pot, cook mostly porridge, the second, we hardly eat fried, I bake it in my favorite electr. oven. Simply, if Liberton, I can take it now, but I need to dig a little bit for Dex, but I want to take it once and not regret it. What do you advise?

Believe me, no matter what multicooker you take, you will not regret it. At least I have not seen such people yet, to be sorry. In any case, it will be your irreplaceable assistant in your kitchen.
Well, it's all the same for you to choose! If you want a more versatile unit, then of course, Dax-60. If volume is important, then Liberton. The difference of 1 liter is really not that much. And yes, a slow cooker is not a saucepan in which you can cook for the whole family for three days. And to eat once for 5 people - any multicooker is enough, with a volume of 4-5 liters.

And it seems to me that this liter is fundamental for a large family. Even if it won't be enough for the whole family on the second day, then having breakfast for two in the morning hot is also important. Or, say, not for breakfast, but leave for children for lunch (if they are old enough to reheat the dish from the refrigerator on their own).
In fact, both cars are good. Of what Liberton does not know, there is only yogurt in Dex, but even that can be made in Liberton if you wish. The rest is all there, only the modes are a little more delicate. Baking in Libera will have to be displayed in two cycles, so for Annushka baking in a multi is not important. With her requests, she and Scarletka will, in principle, be enough, but it costs ridiculous money. The cheapest machine will be enough to understand the process, and then it will select the modes that are necessary for it.

Thanks everyone for the answers! I have a yoghurt maker. In principle, I certainly do not cook with buckets, children are 12, 7 years old, and 10 months old. Oh, it would be faster to buy and not suffer. We don't have them in our stores, you have to order them.

Whatever you choose, you will be happy. But not for long. Because right away you will start dreaming of a second one. Let the second multicooker be the one you will refuse now. Dex + Liberton = the best couple of all the cartoons on the market.
Good luck!

Hello, help me decide. I choose between Dex60 and Liberton 05. I want a bigger bowl, the family is big. And then they write for 5 liters, but in reality it is much less. I'm from Ukraine. Thank you.

Annushka, I also have three children. 20 years old (well, it's already a stretch), 14 years old and 1.5 years old. I have DEH-60. The first course is enough for exactly two days for everyone. I cook to the very best. I pour liquids much higher than the top line. The youngest still eats little. I would advise DEH not only because of the greater number of modes, but also because of environmental friendliness. When I chose to read a huge variety of forums and reviews. So that's all that is cheaper than 600 UAH. has a more or less pronounced technical smell. It usually disappears after a few days of use. However, for me this was a weighty argument "against" although more budget models were very tempting. And since I clearly did not materially hold up to Panasonic, then DEH was the very thing! I have never regretted it. When I unpacked it, I first of all "checked" if there is this plastic smell. To my delight I could not smell it. :) If you find fault, the lack of a drip tray is sometimes annoying, but it is not in all the cheaper models. Happy shopping! I can only add that the multicooker makes the cooking process VERY easier.

So that's all that is cheaper than 600 UAH. has a more or less pronounced technical smell.

It is not worth generalizing. Dex is a wonderful cartoon, I myself have Dex, only 50. True to you - there were no foreign smells in it from the very beginning.
But Liberton, too, did not smell at all.Now, after cooking, it often keeps the smell of cooking food - the smell is absorbed by the silicone gaskets on the lids and the steam valve. The smell of the previous one is NOT transferred to the next dish. BUT: exactly the same story with Dex. The silicone pad likewise absorbs the smells of cooked food, and in the same way DOES NOT transfer them to the next dish.
There are no foreign smells in either one or the other multicooker.... If you read the Liberton thread, you won't find a single chemical or technical odor complaint.

azaza, perhaps I have generalized. Moreover, Liberton is not exactly a cheap model. I know for sure about Scarlet, Orion, that there is this smell. Well, and also my subjective opinion that a price reduction almost always leads to a loss of quality. I do not take into account when the promoted brand is much more expensive, that is, there is a certain markup for the name.
And tell me, please, how in Liberton with pastries? I really want a second cartoon, but so that it bakes no worse than DEX, because there is no oven, or is it better to buy an electric oven? Lovely hostesses! Who has any ideas on this matter? And yet, I want a grater, or a combine, so that I can cut KRASIAO into cubes and strips! Do they exist in nature? They advertise everything beautifully, but how is it really?

Liberton, by the way, is more likely to be a budget MV in terms of price, the price revolves around UAH 500. According to your gradation (everything up to UAH 600) - a cheap foul-smelling device I did not agree with this.
You also forgot to mention the Viscount. There are complaints about the smell, in my opinion, the most. Although the cartoon itself is good.
As for baking in Liberton, read the related thread. I do not bake often, and if I bake, then from CH flour. So here it is too heavy for Liberton, so I bake most often in Dex. Liberton, they say, bakes curds and biscuits wonderfully, but much longer than Dex.
About the combine. I have a Bosch cube. The cubes are amazing, but it doesn't make straws. So, for your requests, look for either two devices, or a Berner grater - there you can manually contrive and plan cubes. Not as fast, of course, as in Boch

Girls, who made baked milk in Dex? I cooked twice, according to the recipe from this forum, 4 hours on stewing. Once I put it on at night, in the morning the milk was light cream, with a thick foam. The second time in the afternoon, and left home. I came, and the table under the cartoon is all filled with milk, milk of a pronounced melted color, all the foam is on the lid. So why did it run away? Although yummy, why is there ...

If the first time everything was fine, then the reason is milk. Even if the same type of milk was taken, it could have been a different batch. Milk is actually the same cat in a bag. Each time it is different, albeit under the same guise.

Can't there be any difference in voltage? Milk, by the way, I take from one farmer. But the first time I poured it whole and put it on stewing, in general, it was very fatty, and the second time I pasteurized it, put it in the refrigerator, skimmed the cream, and then set it to heat. The fat content has decreased.

The fat content has decreased.

I think it can, if the jump was up
I haven't worked with baked milk yet, but it grinds more strongly, if the voltage in the network is higher, respectively, if the voltage is less than 220V, then it does not boil
I can't give any arguments

I have made baked milk more than once in Dax-50 on Slowing for the whole night, at 7-8 hours.It worked out great, nothing ran away, because by the last hours, when the boil was already going on, the milk was already melted in essence. Try it! True, she always boiled fresh whole milk, not boiled.

I also make baked milk on languor, and it always works out great, I set the clock to 5. But first, on the Steam or milk porridge program, I bring it to a boil.

And I am constantly doing on "languor", I do not look at all. I only set the mode 2 times in a row.

[annnushka27]

annnushka27 ! I was looking for a Dex60 multicooker in the internet, I found the cheapest one for 800g, but the store was kind of muddy. Therefore, I decided to order from our Oksana-Lozja here https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=151537.240... Let it be a little more expensive, but the main role was played by the reports of our girls, who had already made purchases from Oksana. Paid on March 5th, received on March 10th. In the morning, when I paid, the cartoon cost 825gr, and from lunchtime the price became 795gr, so Oksana returned my extra money. Delivery by New Mail cost 36g (I also live in Crimea, in the Black Sea). Mulechka arrived in perfect condition, the warranty card is full. I am very happy and, if I am still ripe for something, I will first go to her pages, she has a lot of things. Believe me, this is not an advertisement, I'm just very, very happy.
Yesterday I baked potatoes; today I cooked porridge for my sick mother-in-law and could not resist eating myself, and I hate milk porridge since childhood. There was such a breathtaking smell. Today I'll put porridge on the timer by morning. I am reading this thread, there are a lot of plans. Maybe I'll try pumpkin porridge when (I’m not that pumpkin since childhood ...).

In principle, it is enough to eat twice. I have a husband, 2 children and a grandmother every day comes. But I don't cook soup in it, it didn't work out with pasta either. I make pilaf, boil homemade milk, stew, bake a pie. Of course, it would be great if the pan was larger, it is not enough for jellied meat and you cannot pour 3 liters of milk, only 2-2.5. But for porridge - the right size.

We don't eat jellied meat, I mainly need it for second, vegetable dishes, and for cereals. The bread could still be baked, since there is no bread maker yet, but I have a good electric oven. In general, are you satisfied? Making the cooking process easier?

For me personally, it is convenient to boil milk, since my child is 2 years old. It is convenient to make fish as canned food 1-2 kg, then lie in the refrigerator for several days. It is convenient to make cans of 3 half-liter from meat and also in the refrigerator, then boiled pasta or potatoes and took out the stew. Porridge, too, buckwheat, etc., poured, salted and then do not run next to her. And pilaf is the same. Successful honey cakes are obtained and it is not necessary to heat the oven because of this cake, especially in summer. Everyone liked the stewed cabbage, but he also added everything, salted and that's it. You just need to adapt to it, set your own proportions of water, cereals. It is convenient to fry cutlets so that you do not sprinkle fat all over the stove. And I also bought an additional saucepan, it is more convenient when two, for example, with milk. And it is also convenient to make yogurt in large quantities, and not like small jars in a yogurt maker.

And another question, how to change the time on the multicooker? And then it came with the wrong time set, I somehow cannot find such a section in the instructions, and because of this I can not yet use the delayed start function to make porridge the next morning.

Page 8 of the instruction, column No. 2 Ukrainian text
page 24 column 2 Russian text

And a photo of a spoon, and where I bought it, and

and where did you buy a spoon ???

I buy everything silicone, and something for the kitchen, from one girl in the joint venture, she is from Sevastopol, I am from Sak. Already 2 times with my friends we got together and ordered that in one parcel, it packs everything very compactly, and the prices are very good, in our market everything is 2 times more expensive. I can give a link, but I don't know if it is possible here?

Maina, fish as canned food is from Elenka https://Mcooker-enn.tomathouse.com/index.php@option=com_smf&topic=66170.0
and she also gave a recipe for how to do with tomato paste.And I do the stew like this: a couple of kg of beef, you can add pork, if you need a piece of fat, I put a piece of duck, and for a full cycle for Stewing, then again for Stewing, salt and spices (bay leaf and pepper peas). There is no need to add water, the meat will let the juice itself. Then I put it in half liter jars and in the refrigerator, closer to the wall (it’s colder there), it’s just fine for 10 days. I even somehow added it to the soup.

Thank you who wrote about baked milk, I'll try it next time on languor.
In the meantime, I put yogurt overnight, in jars for 6 hours. Overheated, apparently the serum is gone. 4 hours is enough if you don't get up to him? What do you think?

[tinanna]

Girls! And in what proportions is barley porridge cooked and how much?

- I cook barley every morning, I brought out the following order for myself: in the evening I fall asleep 1 MC of cereal, add, pour 1 glass (usual, 250 ml) of water, on the Milk porridge mode, with a delay for the morning. This makes 3 servings.

Yes, the silicone mat is the thing
Compatriots
Barley is very foaming, I cook 1: 2.5

Thank you all for the warm welcome
While driving home, I forgot everything I read and how to check the cartoon - whether it was working. Tell me, huh?

Is it working - I usually check it like this - I plug it in, put the pan empty and turn on the Heating button. I hold my hand at the bottom of the saucepan, as soon as I feel that the bottom starts to heat up, I turn it off.

Girls, on some of the forums I found a recipe for a multicooker. I tried it yesterday. The fish really turns out like hot smoked, and zero harm, I even gave my son. Here is the prescription:

Hot smoked mackerel! Salt mackerel, rub with spices, and in a bag for baking. Steam cooking 20 min. A complete delight, simple and cheap.

Apple tarten

Tell me, can you write the same recipe in detail, but only for a multicooker? I understood about half of the products, but what about the modes? Start making the filling on the Fry mode? How many minutes are there for each step? If it's not difficult, write a step-by-step recipe specifically for a multicooker.

And I also have a question, maybe, of course, a stupid one, but I'm still mastering a new technique, I always torment with questions
The instructions say that when cooking, you must not exceed the maximum level. Does this mean that if you cook the first, then the liquid level should be below the 8 CUP mark?

Tell me, can you write the same recipe in detail, but only for a multicooker?

ready))) If that ask! and we are waiting for the photo report! Taten is truly heavenly delight BUT serve it hot!

About the volume. Yes, it is recommended not to pour more than the 8 cups mark. I think that if you pour a little more, then nothing terrible will happen. Girls, wrote that they poured and everything is ok.

kroxa, a question about fish "like hot smoked". What is added for the flavor of SMOKED fish? What spices? Very hottsa to try!
