Apparatuses and methods for preparation of breads are described. The apparatuses include a press unit that can receive a dough ball and flatten the dough ball. The press unit includes a top plate and a bottom plate, each of which is in an inclined arrangement. The top plate swivels towards and away from the bottom plate. A dough ball is flattened between the top plate and the bottom plate. The bottom plate is heated, thereby heating a first face of the flattened dough in contact with the bottom plate. A flipper connected to at least one of the top plate and the bottom plate guides the flattened dough to a heated cooking surface. The guiding enables a second face of the flattened dough to come in contact with the cooking surface, thereby heating the flattened dough and forming the bread.

An embodiment may have two rotary discs including a second disc (a cap) and a first disc; and a rotary 'cam' (having ports) placed in the central hole of the first disc. A cap is half the diameter of the first disc. Both face each other and maintain contour complementarity during both of two modes of operation The cap seals the cavity underneath, and without jeopardizing the sealing, permits entry and exit of the radial ridges and furrows of the first disc into it. The ridges sweep the floor (under surface) of the cap and divide the cavity into variable volume compartments that suck and expel fluid simultaneously through the 'cam'. The machine is designed to work as rotary pump, compressor, turbine or internal combustion engine.
