Can someone help me out? The recipes in their booklet have two different types/measures of yeast. I have searched the web site for help.
Why can't I use regular AP flour like I do for my handmade loaves?
I have tried Regular yeast and Bread machine yeast. What is the difference because I see no difference on the label.
I am just about ready to throw this thing out!
Thanks,

The bread flour is different from regular flour...
I think it is a higher gluten.
I have an old bread machine (10yrs old), and don't have much of a problem making the bread. I do prefer the bread machine yeast. You store it in the fridge and use it just like the regular stuff. The best breads that we like are the french bread and the quick oldfashioned bread.
