Supplied with CH plug

Sorry, no idea.

The SD-YR2540 model has 32 programmes and the SD-YR2550 has 31. The SD-YR2540 can also make spelt bread. The rest is identical.

Yes

Yes, it switches off after the programme has finished (i.e. after baking). The appliance is then still energised, but it no longer heats. Unlike other appliances, there is no keep-warm mode with reduced heat. However, I wouldn't leave the bread in the appliance for too long as it gets colder. I think that condensation could form, and moist bread wouldn't be such a hit. Also important to know: Because there is no main switch, the appliance is always energised when it is plugged in.

There is a table in the operating instructions that shows which "recipes" knead, rest and bake for how long. You can also use the appliance for baking/rising/kneading only, for example

The standard recipes (or baking programmes) are designed for approx. 500, 750 and 1000 grams. You can, of course, calculate the ingredients yourself - but I think that a 250-gram loaf will then bake quite well. I would at least reduce the crust thickness when selecting the programme. Alternatively, you can of course choose a dough programme that only kneads. There are a few of these to choose from. Then bake the dough in its own oven. My own solution is to take a standard size, cut the bread in half after baking and freeze one half. As a weekend baker, I have the advantage that I only have to start the bread machine every 14 days. :-)

Spelt is a bit tricky when it comes to water absorption. That's why there are special programmes for it. Therefore, if you are working with spelt, I would advise you to only use a machine that is designed for it.

The best thing to do is to contact our customer service directly at https://helpcenter.galaxus.ch/hc/de/requests/new. Your request can then be examined individually.

Unfortunately, the manufacturer doesn’t give any information about the noise for this product. These machines usually make a little bit of noise. So, it might be possible that you will hear it if it’s on during the night.

There is a hole in the bread, without chopping it does not work.

With a European (German?) plug. An adapter was included, but unfortunately it didn't fit. I am now biting into my first loaf of bread, which looks very successful (breadmaker received yesterday).

If the difference to the 2550 model is meant, as this is the 2540, then this would be that the 2540 has one more programme and the colour, otherwise the products are the same.
