Hi, apologies if this is the wrong place to submit this, I'm not sure how strict the topic categories are here. I've just been given a Breville BR2 bread maker, but minus the instructions. I'm hoping to find someone that has them, and would be kind enough to copy them for me! Anyone happen to have this machine? Thanks...

WE really like Rudi's Organic Spelt Ancient Grain Bread (available at Whole Foods and Wild Oats) but hate paying almost $5.00 a loaf.  Can anyone recommend a bread machine recipe that simulates this bread?  Ingredients include spelt flour, organic evap cane juice, quinoa flour, sesame seeds, millet, flax seed, kamut flour, amaranth flour, sunflower seeds, potato flour, oil, salt, molasses, oat flour, .....

This bread is crunchy and so tasty.  Our friends that won't eat anything but white bread even like it!

 Thanks so much for any help you can give.

I just purchased a Zojirushi breadmaker and would like to know if anyone has some program details for rustic/artisan style breads to program into the machine. 

does anyone by any chance have the instruction manual for the toastmaster model #1163 bread machine and would be willing to scan the basic instruction pages?

my 92 year old dad inherited one from his sister and is determined to use it. i googled and seems toastmaster is no longer producing this machine. of course i could buy him a new bread machine but that would hurt his feelings and sense of economy.

just heard about this great site from peter reinhart.

We are a small producer making and supplying organic bread mixes, organic spelt and rye and gluten free mixes. The organic mixes are home grown, stoneground and packed on our family farm.

Makes great bread and mostly its 'just add water' to the mix in your bread machine. Makes great bread by hand too.

We've just setup on-line ordering and can mail order throughout the UK, or it available in lots of smaller shops throughout the UK (please see stockists list).

Apologies for advertising in a forum but this is an interesting site and hope that people find it useful.

I am a new bread machine baker and I want to know how  to keep the bread fresh for at least a couple of days. Store-bought bread keeps pretty well and I noticed that by the next day or even earlier, my bread is kind of hard.

Thank you!

Hi all,I'm new to breadmaking and use a bread machine. So far things have been going gangbusters and I love it. Makes a great hostess gift, even if you make it from a mix it's appreciated. I am ready to delve into an everyday loaf that I can make a couple times a week and doesn't have all the cr*p that's in commercial breads. Currently, I buy a commercial whole wheat bread that is "double-fiber"--5 grams/slice! So, a sandwich made with this bread gives you 40% of the RDA for fiber at only 40 calories per slice. This is a boon for folks like me who count calories or otherwise pay attention to their diets.

I have mastered the perfect bread machine whole wheat. While I love making bread "the real way" with a fussy one year old, sometimes I just don't have the time. This recipie I adapted from the recipe that came with my breadmaker.

For 1.5 lb loaf:

1 cup + 2 Tbsp water (room temperature, 75 to 85 degrees F or 24 to 30 C)

1 Tbsp + 1-1/2 tsp butter or margerine, softened

1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar

1 tablespoon honey

1-1/4 tsp. salt

1 1/2 cups unbleached flour

2 cups whole wheat flour

2 tablespoons flaxseed meal

2-1/4 tsp. yeast (I found that active dry yeast works fine, but you can use breadmaker yeast too).

I got this recipe from a computer tech forum. It has received hundreds of rave reviews. It it very very easy to make.

World's Best Bread Recipe

I'm not sure this is the right place to post this, but here goes.... I recently ran across a delightful bread machine book called "The Best Low-Fat, No-Sugar Bread Machine Cookbook Ever." By Madge Rosenberg. For those of us who are diabetic, this is excellent. I didn't bake it it my machine, but put it in a loaf pan to raise. You have to let it raise a lot higher than a regular loaf. But so far, they are all a delight for the taste buds. The Herbed Pita Bread tasts just great. Hope this will help some diabetic people who have stopped eating bread because of the carbs. You can get this book through Amazon.com at a really low price.
