I have a Zo and would like to use it to knead the dough. First, can I mix the starter in the pan of Zo (in one corner, gently) and leave it overnight so I'm all ready to continue in the pan the next day? Second, how do I adjust the rise times for using the bread machine? Do I press the dough button as usual and then shape the dough when it finishes, or would there be more rise time required beyond the standard dough setting time? Can I actually use that special button for setting your own times for the different steps if it needs more time? I've never been brave enough to create my own program, but I may as well learn to use it. Thanks. I checked the blog and you can make the dough in the machine on the dough cycle. You can use the bread pan to make your starter in, then leave it lightly covered overnight. Pop it into the machine, add the other ingredients and set the dough cycle. Then at the end of the cycle, pick it up where you begin the second 1 hour rise. ~ MaryJane
