I have a Cuisinart 2# bread maker with signal beep for removing the paddle-great feature. I always warm the bread pan with hot water and slightly warm the liquid ingredients in micro prior to adding to the bottom of the pan, then adding dry ingredients and yeast in a well hole on the top. My loaves come out beautiful if I watch the moistness of the dough during kneading, adding flour or water as needed. Warm pan and warm liquid helps each time!
