What type do you recommend. eBay has every size, type, shape. Just MrC4E and me at home now. Interestingly enough, I have been retracting myself how to make my own bread, soups, yogurt, crackers etc. I like doing it and like the idea of eating food with less additives and preservatives.
I don’t think the brand or model makes any difference. You do need one for real shtf scenarios.
