Can this be used in bread machine recipes? For kefir?

I have used the powder in a bread machine to add richness and protein, but rehydrated would probably be best, if you are trying a new recipe. Kefir, I have never made, so can't help you there.

Quite probably; I simply put the ingredients in and wait. However, that said, this machine is not one I'd recommend. It has too often spewed dough over the edges of the insert, so that the dough falls to the hot coils and burns, and is impossible to fully remove from the machine. That MAY be because I've used gluten-free flours, but I can't figure why (a) if gluten-free is the reason the machine's instructions should so state; and (b) why this has never happened to me before with bread machines.

I never use dried milk. I had a breadman for years and never used dried milk and water. I use not only different bread machine books but even regular bread recipes for the dough cycle. I just used it to make my Easter bread with my grandmas recipe. Just do dough so you can bake the special breads right. The machine is great for mixing, kneading and rising. I never do by hand anymore because it closely monitors the rise.

The closest I can think of is "rzhanoi" :-). I've made it several times in my bread machine, it always turns out great. Husband approves! :-)

It works extremely well in a bread machine. Measure it the same way as for the yeast that's supposedly 'made' for bread machines. I've been using this brand for the last 10 years with awesome success in the bread machine, bread by hand and for artisan bread.

Here is one that works for all machines: http://www.breadmachinedigest.com/beginners/generic-bread-machine-instructions.php

It would be perfect for that, yes. The only issue you might find is that it is small. I use it to strain my kefir grains or the yuck out of the bottom of my kombucha brewer, but when I want to strain the whey from kefir to make kefir cheese, I use the Kefir Cheese Making Strainer by Alpha Health Products. Also, of course, good old cheesecloth will work.

Yes you can, I did it sometimes but I used it more to make a flour for ma home made bread :-)

I had never done so-I would think that it would work fine though. I make recipes that are not in the book that comes with the bread maker and they come out beautifully.

I also use this for making pasta. Flour might be to fine for scones but try it for bread. I do make bread sticks.

Absolutely. I only use it for making French bread in a bread machine. It has worked great for me for years.

Have not tried it and am not sure how it would work.Gluten formation odds the hallmark of bread making. I would consult King Arthur website.

I would say no. Indian fry bread requires more fat to fry then this machine can handle. This machine doesn't actually fry food, it browns it with very little oil. Fry bread requires frying with more oil so I don't think it will work. Try doing it with just a small amount of dough to test and see what happens. Try not to use any more than 1 tablespoon of oil as called for in the directions.

Bread machine recipies work out fine, but I only use the slightly larger whole wheat yeast and no the regular yeasts. Also have to be sure to balance the ph when using rye - hence the bit or orange peel and bit of apple cider vinegar.

Absolutely! I use my bread machine almost exclusively and this has always worked well for me. It is the only yeast that I use.

If you mean you have Candida, then I don't think you should use it at all. Sugar is a breeding ground for yeast and I have no idea if or how these strains transform the sugar. You could ask your doctor, but I don't know if you'll get a good answer as there are no real studies done on kefir. Perhaps you could try milk kefir instead?

Yes. This will work just fine in a bread machine. There is no need (no pun intended) to proof the yeast first. Just add the amount required for your recipe to the flour mixture and you're all set.
