Does this product knead bread dough (yeast), if so, do you have to use cooler ingredients so as to not kill the yeast, does it come with a dough blade

Yes it kneads dough. You have to use warm ingredients otherwise the yeast doesn't rise. Check a yeast recipe for the recommended temp.Don't use more than 4 cups of flour. I tried 5 cups but it stalled the machine. The unit does not come with a dough blade. You use the sharp s blade.

Nowhere in the manufacturers literature does it mention a dough blade or that it can produce dough. Food processors are higher speed than a mixer, I highly suggest a mixer for that process, Right tool for the right job Have a great Day

It does not come with a dough blade. As I make bread dough in my mixer, I have not attempted to make any in this processor.

Im honestly not sure of the answer. I have had this machine for almost three years (maybe more) but it is the one that I use at work. When I got it, I put all the blades away in the store room except for the ones that I would be using. I use this every day and I can tell you that's it is a GOOD machine. I work in a restaurant and I put it through some very tough times. Im just not sure about the dough blade. Did you read the item description very well, because I just cant remember.

No it doesn't. It slices the dough rather than knead it. For bread dough you need a dough hook.

thank you jane, i did do that, beleive me!!i have read where people remove the dough after the 2nd. kneading and remove the paddled's and lightly oil your hands and put the dough back in the breadmaker. i am going to try to do this.when i researched the reviews i should have read the newer reviews first, they have the older reviews on page 1-9 pretty much good reviews.pages 10-11 you really get the up-dated reviews from people who have just purchased this bread machine.. westbend must have changed something in these (from the first time) of making this maker.thank you for the reply.mary mmount@windstream.net thank you jane, i did do that, beleive me!!i have read where people remove the dough after the 2nd. kneading and remove the paddled's and lightly oil your hands and put the dough back in the breadmaker. i am going to try to do this.when i researched the reviews i should have read the newer reviews first, they have the older reviews on page 1-9 pretty much good reviews.pages 10-11 you really get the up-dated reviews from people who have just purchased this bread machine.. westbend must have changed something in these (from the first time) of making this maker.thank... » Read More thank you jane, i did do that, beleive me!!i have read where people remove the dough after the 2nd. kneading and remove the paddled's and lightly oil your hands and put the dough back in the breadmaker. i am going to try to do this.when i researched the reviews i should have read the newer reviews first, they have the older reviews on page 1-9 pretty much good reviews.pages 10-11 you really get the up-dated reviews from people who have just purchased this bread machine.. westbend must have changed something in these (from the first time) of making this maker.thank you for the reply.mary mmount@windstream.net « Show Less

the secret is sugar. whatever i make, i always add one table spoon of sugar. sugar helps yeast growing. and you can also start with the dough cycle, then keep it in the machine for several hour, then just use the bake cycle. that way the bread will have more time to grow. shouldn't be too hard.

Yes, there is a cycle for bread dough, which kneads and allows dough to rise, but does not bake. You would only have to form the rolls and bake in your oven. I have not used the cycle on this machine, but did so with my old machine. The work is in the kneading, I think, so it would help.

I use it for making bread dough all the time. You are supposed to use the plastic blade instead of the metal blade to prevent to the dough from overheating, but I've use both blades with no problems. (If you process the dough too long and it overheats you will kill the yeast.) Perfect for pizza night.

Mine didn't come with a dough blade. I always used the metal blade so this is a non-issue.

This bread keeper is good. I keep waiting for it to disappoint me but so far it hasn't. I hear others speak of moldy bread, but I have never gotten that and I keep the vents closed as tight as I can...wonder if I can tape them shut? Anyway, yes, it will work if you pre-slice your bread but your bread may dry out a bit. Homemade breads don't have the chemicals in them to make them stay moist no matter what.

Yes, we add yeast when making bread. It seems to rise well, but loses height some after cooling

NO. not successfully. Yeast is necessary for good bread making. This machine does a good job as is required. Alvin.

Yes, mine came with the dough blade. If your box details say it is supposed to be there, then it is missing. I would contact Amazon and tell them your package is missing an accessory or return your package and get a new one. Or ask the manufacturer to send you the missing item.

I've only had good results with this yeast. I'm not an expert and I don't know how much you know, so I'll keep it simple. Make sure your water is 105-115 when adding to yeast with sugar to activate. Let dough rise for longer times before baking. Otherwise good product

I do not use a bread machine. It has worked great for me with a no knead bread

I have made pizza dough and bread with great results. I suppose it all depends on the receipe you use. My suggestion would be to visit their website or better yet call and ask them specifically. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

I did not try it with my bread machine ! I just followed the box instructions which were easy - it turned out nice every time! After it cooled I sliced the entire loaf with an electric knife and then froze two slices each in sandwich bags for easy removal and thawing! Good Luck! &#128522;

HI-- My bread came out like a normal loaf-- I did use regular eggs-- and I used whole eggs. I also added a 1/4 cup sugar away from the yeast. My Machine guidelines say to start with all wet ingredients on the bottom of the pan (make sure your water is warm enough) then add the dry ingredients with the yeast on the top on one side of the pan and I put the ¼ cup additional sugar on the other. I chose the darker crust option. My bread came out pretty good.
