Just joined up and glad to be here. I've already found lots of ideas for my breadbaking. I notice that the RSS feed link does not seem to work in my reader (WizRSS) when trying the page I get a 4o4 page not found error.
Otherwise everything on this site is super.

Hi All,
I'm new here. I feel very fortunate to be living in Sonoma County! The original stomping grounds of Mr Peter Reinhart himself. I have been "trying" to bake bread for the last 6 months or so. I'm on a quest to learning how to make good bread. On a consistant basis
I need some help tho. If someone can point me to the "Trouble Shooting" section I will read, absorb and apply as much as I can.
Hi I am from Washington State and have just joined the forum. I excited to learn to make better Bread
Hi everyone out there. I've been reading Fresh Loaf every day for a month and have just plucked up courage to introduce myself. I live in Suffolk, in England - very rural - and bake every week, mostly sourdough. A neighbour and I have just built an oudoor, wood-fired oven so we're having fun learning how to use it - in the snow! Any ideas for things to cook after the bread?
My only complaint about Fresh Loaf is that it's addictive - is there a sister site called Bakaholics Anonymous!

Hi, my name is Diane. I live in Missouri and discovered this website, it's wonderful!! Hope to get new ideas about breadmaking and make new friends...
I use instant dry yeast Block form you get at sams club. I keep the bulk in the freezer and keep about a half a cup in the fridge. This is what i use to make bread. I usually pull it and use it right away but fail to get a good oven spring. My dough usually doubles when in its first and second rise but never springs in the oven. I know i dont need to mix it with liquid like the other kinds of yeasts. I just throw this stuff in the flour and mix all ingredients together.HELP!!!

Cheers, Jw.
I am one of those who has been baking bread for a long time; failing to achieve my goal nearly every time. I've read books on bread making that cover the full range from using a good processor (exclusively) to spoon bread ... seems I can't do anyting right. My only success of any attempts I've made have been with Naan and no knead bread recipes. But I won't give up and I'm hoping I can find the secret to how so many of you confidently work with water and flour and a few other ingredients to produce a wonderful loaf of bread.
