Different tasting
My wife currently baked a second loaf of sandwich bread in our first ever bread machine. The bread was much more moist than the first loaf. However, I have never had the opportunity to eat homemade bread (ever). The bread machine bread has a different taste from store bought bread that I've been consuming for the last 60 years. Is there some thing wrong with the bread from bread machine or is it because of all the various "stuff" in store bought?

First of all, if you like the taste and texture of your bread then you made it the right way, that is ultimately the goal of bread baking to bake a loaf that you like.Second of all you will find that homemade bread tastes nothing like the store bought bread, this is because of the "stuff" they add in to make it last longer and be ready quicker.Happy baking!

Thanks so much for taking the time to respond. The first sentence of your reply was encouraging.
a more home baked looking and tasting loaf you can have the machine do all the work and then, right before it goes into the actual baking cycle, just take it out and bake it in the oven. at a higher temperature and get a better crust..
Welcome and happy bread baking
Thanks for the input and taking the time to respond.
