We have been baking bread here, using two machines – one an Oster and the other a Sunbeam. Quentin is cursed by the Sunbeam. We believe the recipe for some of the more exotic breads is flawed – not enough liquid. The machine also seems to be behaving strangely. Of course, Cameron had an unexpected result when he selected the dark crust option; the loaf turned out as firm as a bowl on the outside and he ate the bread by excavation.
Quentin took a picture of the first “loaf” with his phone, but it doesn’t do the disaster justice since it looks as if it could be a molded cake with a powdered sugar coating.
We are thinking about using the express cycle so we can get through the misbakes faster.
