Re: A novice bread Maker..

The basic quantities for the world-beating Panasonic SD-series are

0.5 tsp yeast
400 g strong white flour
1 tbsp milk powder
1 tbsp sugar
1 tsp salt
15 g butter
280 ml water

Added in that order, and set on the basic white programme (4 hours). I usually reduce the salt to somewhere aroud 0.75 tsp but I find I need to do that these days as the results can be a little inconsistent otherwise. I don't think that's the breadmaker's fault as such; I have had it for 8 years and it has been used at least 3 times a week (more often 4-5 times a week), every week, during that time.

Before you try any recipes, read your own manual and pay attention to all the general advice about the order you put the ingredients in, how you clean the pan, wait time between loads, etc etc.
