It’s definitely too big and heavy to whip in and out of a cupboard on demand. It seems huge but, with a footprint of 40 x 40cm, it only takes up 50 per cent more worktop space than our Cuisinart breadmaker. The machine itself, unpacked, weighs 20kg and takes up a lot of worktop space. The box it arrives in is a two-person lift ideally it’s a bit of a struggle for one. And, incredibly, once the machine is up to temperature, it can churn one out every 90 seconds. Rotimatic instead pulls in ingredients from three receptacles on the top – flour, water and oil – kneads them, rolls out the flatbread and then cooks it. You can’t just knead it and then bake it in the same container. Making roti is quicker but a much more complex process than baking a loaf. Rotimatic really is packed with tech: 10 motors, 15 sensors, 300 moving parts and a Wi-Fi connection team up to make you your daily bread. Which is not to say that it’s unimpressive. A more down-to-earth description would be that Rotimatic is a breadmaker for flatbreads. Just don’t expect to step out of your sci-fi flying car and be greeted by your cheery robotic baker. Rotimatic is billed as the world’s first flatbread-making robot and this is no lie.
