re: Toastmaster Bread Box Bread Baker 1142

Mine runs very quietly. I am very happy with mine. But all the recipes in my manual are like yours, ridiculously salty. I tried contacting Toastmaster makers but couldn't seem to find manufacturer's URL). If you adjust yeast/ salt amount per my suggestion, you should be just fine. I use that proportion for everything I bake using yeast, and it works perfectly. It just seems to me that these bread making machine manufacturer must be in kahoots with yeast company, so they make the recipes with the maximum amount of yeast to make the bread rise. I used to live in much higher elevations and had to adjust the recipes for higher elevations, too. Wore out two previous bread making machines of different brand names, never had this salt problem, but other issues and they were always solved by reducing yeast and salt in their recipes. I got this concept from looking at recipes for making bread the hard way...with "elbow grease".
