Yes,,, Brian...
I have used sourdough starter in my ABM, but had to use dried yeast
also, since the starter isn't about to start anything in the relatively
short time the machine allots for rising.
Therefore, I don't see any advantage to adding the sourdough starter. I
feed/use my starter every three days, whether I need to or not, so
there's no distinctive flavor the ABM bread needs. But my sourdough
bread is FANTASTIC!
I don't like my bread machine. (Is daughter listening?) because the top
is flat instead of nicely rounded. Anyone with suggestions about THAT
feature??
