Believe or not, it is the bread machine that failed. I returned mine after 6 months of use and it was supposedly one of the best models out there. With me it was hit or miss. The bread would either turn well or really bad, even if the same steps were taken. A lot of it has to do with the temperature in the room. In the winter months the bread machine didn't work so well. We have switched to making our own bread in a dutch oven instead. Get yourself a copy of "My Bread: The Revolutionary No-Work, No-Knead Method" by Jim Lahey.

I suggest that you use half whole wheat flour and half white flour, not all whole wheat.

Do you put things in the wet to dry order? Were all your ingredients fresh? I've used in bread machine, with home ground flours and regular bread recipes hand mixed , kneaded and never had an issue.

You have to use Instant dry yeast instead of Active dry yeast in your bread machine. I hope that helps:)

Mine never worked right. Burned the bread even on light crust. I returned it.

I did find that my loaves were too big. I no longer use it, just worked on my bread cutting free style and that works best for us

I am not absolutely sure, but it could be due to some of your ingredients! Be sure to follow the recipe measurements and instructions exactly, and use what they recommend. It calls for bread flour, I have had success with using regular flour, but stick to what is called for and see if it makes any difference (if you are using something else) it could also be the yeast. make sure it is fresh and not outdated It doesn't sound like it is the machine, as you say the bread is baked. I also had a bad loaf when I first started, it was when I made the 2 lb. loaf, it came out heavy and did not rise so I made sure I followed the recipe exactly and my ingredients were fresh and I stuck to the 1 and 1/2 lb recipe and it has worked fine every time. Hope this helps!!

I have no idea, but the only success I have had with it is whole wheat grain breads and pizza dough. It doesn't bake the white breads.

make sure your recipe fit the pan size - this is a normal sized bread pan so most bread recipes should work just fine - I suspect that your yeast isn't fresh or your not letting your doe rise long enough or in a warm enough location - your yeast is probably the issue here.

I think sometimes the problem is in the paddles. I have had a couple of loaves turn out a bit strange, and usually the reason was that the paddles weren't locked down properly. One time I used too much of a heavy flour with not enough liquid (when experimenting with my own recipe), so that can cause problems as well. Otherwise, everything else has turned out perfectly.

This machine does NOT make bread well. Only the lightest of bread recipes will be able to be mixed with this unit.My 'typical' bread recipe:5 cups flour1 7/8 cups water1.5-2 Tbsp sugar1 tsp salt2-3oz oil1-2 tsp yeastReceived unit as Christmas gift (2014) and tried my basic bread recipe. Unit began to mix, then bogged down before finishing. Had to use my old 1980's Oster Kitchen Center to finish mixing the dough (becasue I didn't want to throw it away). Am waiting for RMA to return.Perhaps this unit is good for mixing cookies, or cake recipes, or beating/whipping cream/butter. But do NOT buy this unit for mixing bread.

I only use my machine to make gluten free bread for my son. I found that it works best if I mix the ingredients prior to putting them in the machine. I have also found that you have to use the correct amount of yeast for your altitude I have just played around to figure out what works beat for me. Also with your yeast add some sugar to help activate it (you would have to google how much to use as I don't measure and just eyeball it) and do not open you machine until it has finished cooking. This is what I found has worked to make the bread I make come out better.

I've never tried bread, but I don't know if it would do a very good job on something with such a soft consistency.

I did not try it with my bread machine ! I just followed the box instructions which were easy - it turned out nice every time! After it cooled I sliced the entire loaf with an electric knife and then froze two slices each in sandwich bags for easy removal and thawing! Good Luck! �

I wasn't to impressed with the outcome of this item. You waste a lot of bread because you can only get one cutout from this tool. You may try jelly just make sure you put a lot of pressure when pushing down.

I bought this bread machine for a friend. I am sorry that I don't know if it can make whole wheat bread.

I really do not know because I bought a Bread Maker for that. I do know that it has a lot of power. Professionals use this machine. You can 'googol' this question. That is what my husband does before we buy anything. He looks at the reviews.

Hi Gerald-- To be honest, I don't think it was meant for that type of application but I'm semi-impressed it worked at all! Have you considered just getting a grain mill? I think Amazon sell a variety of models that should do the job right for you. Good luck!

Sorry I can't help you. I just put it in the bread machine and let it do all the work.
