I guess these folks want to have their bread and eat it too.  :-)

What's surprising to me is that after making about 50 loaves, I don't
use the machine much any more...  Because it's a hassle to load it up
(takes ten minutes) and clean up afterward (takes ten more minutes).
Weird huh?  All those great recipes and I just make an occasional basic
loaf that *usually* rises OK.
