My dough doesn't pull completely away from the sides of the bowl. It has to be nudged out of the bowl, but then forms into a ball and is smooth. I have it in first rise mode now. I am in FL and it is warm here (78 degrees), humidity outside is 80% so I have the air conditioning on. I used the 1 1/3 cup warm water but had to add a scant 1/8 cup more to get the dough to come together. Do you think I added too much water? I have tried several loaves, and while they are quite edible, none have been absolutely perfect.....and that is what I am going for! LOL Having to add more flour is most likely just a result of your humid climate. ~Amy
