Hello. I make this wonderful bread regularly, sometimes substituting a cup (4.25 oz) of all-purpose. I use my bread machine dough cycle for mixing and kneading (only) and have been bitten, in the beginning, by the overly fast rise bug. I believe I may have a tip for dealing with this. I don't let the kneading cycle continue to the end; rather I let it run for about 1 1/2 times the mixer time amount (maybe 10 to 12 minutes), making sure to eyeball the dough for consistency. Then shut the machine off and turn the dough out into a rising bowl. Been perfect ever since. Roll Tide.
