You can go to Bakers Catalog, they have bread machines and receipes all on line. Good luck

Have had 2 different bread makers and would never replace making it myself with that. Don't like the taste or texture- would rather vest the money in a professional level Kitchen aid and make several good loaves at a time

i use it to making dough in recipes with yeast and cinnamon rolls and for making frenchbread

I always use the light crust setting so the bread doesn't bake to hard of a crust. Have 3 machines & I love them both. Best thing ever invented

I use mine all the time and love it.
I have never used the bread mixes.

I put flour, water, salt and yeast in my breadmaker and just use the dough setting. When it's finished with the first rise I take it out and shape it into a loaf or rolls. Let rise again and then bake. Just the first rising it's ready for great pizza dough. I use steam bread pans and make the seasoned loaves like Subway has. I just as the seasoning, cheese and other ingredients to the dough after first rise. Caution: Don't do this unless you want to do it all the time. My family expects fresh bread daily. LOL

We run two machines daily and have for about 20 years. We have 2 panasonic bread makers. We buy wheat at the health food store and grind it. Also at Costco here they have white bread flour. It is made from hard wheat and has a higher gluten content. Lately we have bought the instand bakers yeast on line. The other ingredients like flax seeds we find at the local health food store.

Years ago we bought a book called Bread Machine Magic by Linda Rehberg and Lois Conway. As for the mixes have you tried ordering online? We never used the mix.

"from scratch" is ALL I do in my machine, and it works great! I encourage you to try it!
