Meet the BreadBot: Autonomous bread-making robot bakes 10 loaves every hour

It could be the best thing since sliced bread. A family-owned baking business is attempting to disrupt how you get your next loaf at the grocery store with the first, fully automated bread-making machine. Called the BreadBot, Washington-based Wilkinson Baking Company took the wraps off the machine at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, which mixes, kneads and bakes bread in just 90 minutes. Up to 10 loaves are ready to pick up from a vending machine every hour and its creators say the BreadBot does as good of a job as a human baker - so good that the machines are expected to land in major grocery stores soon. BreadBot can make just about any kind of loaf you want, including whole wheat, nine grain, honey oat and rye.
