This machine makes the crust a little harder than the older ones did. There is a thermostat where you can adjust it. Haven't done it yet.
If anyone has, please post.

Found out that people use a recipe and it comes out hard so they get rid of the machine. Just like hand made bread it has to feel right to come out right.
I live in Phx AZ so you need to add more water than a recipe calls for, lots more. It needs to feel soft and wet to the touch.
I test the dough several times during mix cycle. Mine now comes out just like homemade.
I love the book Whole Grain Breads by Machine or Hand. Author Beatrice Ojakangas. I have to add alot more water than the recipes call for, not quite 1/4 cup more.
The family loves to get a loaf of my bread and it is so easy to make with a machine.

My bread machine is a busy appliance.
One of the things I make is homemade pizza. The crust is really easy....half a recipe of white or whole grain bread in the bread machine on the "dough" setting. Once it's kneaded and has a first rise in the machine I stop the machine, roll out the dough, add pizza sauce, toppings and mozzarella. Bake at about 425 degrees for about 15 minutes. Better than take-out and a lot cheaper.

My first bread machine died a few months ago and I had a new one on the way from Amazon within minutes :-)
I do use it for just a "mixer" and shape/bake it myself.
To those who are having trouble: dry to liquid is NOT an exact science. It depends on the humidity how much liquid you need. That can vary EVERY time so I add a little less than the recipe calls for then slowly add more while it is mixing until the dough is the texture I am looking for.

I have about 6 books on BMB. I have got a lot off the internet. Have one for a Italian herb & cheese that is wonderful. It also makes the best croutons you ever ate after it gets stale.[/quote]
Do you remember where you got the recipe Debr? Would love to have it. The one I have is OK but can't get it tweaked right.

Several friends have asked for this recipe so thought I would just post it here for all. I got it from place called Recipe Circus on internet. Hope you all enjoy. Deb

Although my bread maker is in the crawl space....here are the favourites I used to make.... all from a little booklet from Rogers Flour, I see there are different proportions for the 1 pound/ 1 1/2 pound and 2 pound... please PM me if you will actually be making this bread, thanks!
