I bet the residual sugars still left in the grain and the honey make for a nice sweet bread.

We've found that, for the most part, letting the bread machine do all the work but taking the dough out and kneading it down to shape and then in the oven. The bread machine doesn't always do such a great job with the grain IMO.
I can ask my wife for the recipe if you want it. It's pretty simple and she tries different flour too. Lately she's been into Spelt flour and often, wheat flour. It's best fresh but the next few days its better toasted.
The recipe is in my previous post of last night ie bread.docx if anyone still wants it.
I'd rather talk about beer and/or have bread with beer...I'm a starchy kinda guy.

I'm assuming that in the absence of a bread-maker, vigorous bare-handed-mixing will get the job done.

A lot more work, yeah, but I don't know if a bread machine would get enough use to justify the cost (although I'm going to look into it).

We've made it by hand a few times but can tell no difference at all. But we do like to remove it from the bread machine and bake in the oven. We've found that it can spread out more in the oven than the bread machine and isn't as dense when baked in the oven.
But, either way, it's real good.

Dave, I got my bread maker at a thrift store for $10.00. I got my first one there brand new for $5 several years ago and I’d still be using it except I lost the part that kneads it. You’re likely to find a good one cheap, especially around Feb/March, once people have had a chance to try their Christmas gifts and decide they’ve been eating way too much bread!

Good point Alb. My wife loves the Goodwill stores here. She got a brand new bread machine for $12. Only had a slight dent on it and was still wrapped in the original box. She got a nice toaster oven for my son's place at school for $7.50 and I saw it online for $89! Crazy things people get rid of. A worker told her people bring unopened wedding gifts they don't want based by what's on the outside of the boxes.

I looked them up online, and saw some for around $45 or so, and that's not so much to spend if I'm going to be using it on a regular basis.

I think I'm going to give it a try with mixing by hand, and see how we like the results. If it's a popular item, I think we can spring for a machine.
