In college my bread maker was my Mormon-coffee maker. Most nights I'd fill it and set the timer so that I could have a hot slice on my way to class. I continued the habit as a newlywed, but somewhere along the way my machine died. Nate bought me a new one, but I never quite got it figured out. After about 8 years in the closet, I pulled it out and gave it a whirl. My first few attempts were LESS than perfect. In fact they we completely inedible bricks. I tried more water, new yeast, extra wheat gluten...finally I figured out the right combination for white bread on the quick cycle. YUM! Warm bread from scratch with home-made strawberry jam in under an hour!!! Devine! I think my husband would vote for that for dinner every night of the year.
Tonight I'm attempting a box mix on the full 3 hour cycle. We will see.

You have read my mind! I have been craving homemade bread and have been thinking about getting a bread maker! YUM!!!!
I am mondo impressed. My breadmaker and I split after a few months. Even Mom tried to make some bread in it. It does look delicious though, I'll give you a few months of figuring out all the little nuances and then i'll get one and ask you to teach me all your bready secrets:)
Since I read your post, I've been dying to make 60 minute rolls. Looks like dinner.
