Yeah, I borrowed my MiL's bread machine and used that to make it a couple times.

I want to make some focaccia bread at some point since I can't find a local place that keeps it in stock consistently.

Thinking of starting to make biscuits (for the dog) out of spent grains from brewing. Seems a waste to toss them or compost them.

Had one of those bread machines for a few years and found that I was making bread 2-3x a year -- hardly worth it. When we moved, the bread machine moved to the dump with a lot of other items. I wouldn't mind getting another one, with a much better mixing "paddle" that doesn't bury itself in the bread.

I should try to get the recipe for the wheat bread my dad used to make when I was a kid -- it had whole wheat flour, molasses...damn but that was some good gread. drooling

Now I want some warm, fresh bread. frustrated

I loooooove making bread. I can make it by hand completely if needed, but I don't have the time for that these days. So I use the bread machine, but only on the dough setting. I do the shaping and the final rising by hand, and then put it in a loaf pan and bake it in the oven. I can't stand the way bread machine loaves turn out- with that paddle hole in the bottom, weird shape, hard as a rock top crust, etc.

I have also discovered the secret to a soft-crusted bread. I don't mind a nice crunchy crust at times, but other times I want to make a bread suitable for sandwiches and a hard crust is NOT what you want for sandwiches. To get a soft crust, you just butter the entire top of the loaf of bread the instant it comes out of the oven. You can use any kind of fat (whole milk works, etc. but not skim) but I prefer butter. Makes the crust nice and tender, perfect for sandwiches.

Dammit now I want to go make bread RIGHT NOW.

Yep. No bread machine. I do quick breads (banana, zucchini, cornbread) as well as yeast bread for pizza, pepperoni rolls and dinner rolls.

Awesome, we were talking about this last night when discussing doomsday scenario cooking. Cooking skills will be valuable especially with long shelf life dried goods.

Come on it is a thread about bread. Of course it is going to take off... it already has bread in it.

Google No-Knead Bread / images and you will get an idea. It depends on the pan used too. FYI when they say the bread will be shaggy and hard to work with, don't take that too literal. If you have a big blobby mess you need to add more flour.

I need to make myself a proofing box. I like having a very cold house, which means a cold kitchen, which means trying to figure ways to get the bread to rise well during that last rising. My oven is old and doesn't turn on at a low enough temp (in a previous house I had an oven with a bread proofing setting- omg that was NICE) and even the top of the fridge isn't usually warm enough, so I end up doing things like putting the bread in the microwave with a mug of boiling hot water- but you have to refresh the water like every 10 minutes. Pain in the rear.
