The Bread Machine Book

Luckily I bought this book in a second hand shop, because the ingredient quantities in the recipe that I tried were wildly out. I'm wondering if these recipes were ever tested. I tried the recipe as printed although very dubious about it , and I was right: there was far too little liquid, and my bread machine was not even able to mix the ingredients properly. It came out looking like a monstrous growth rather then a loaf. I retried the recipe with my own estimate of what the right amount of liquid would be (double what this book said), and the loaf was fine. So I would say get this book if you are already confident enough with your machine to be able to edit the recipes yourself before trying them. I'm going to use it as an ideas book rather than a set of recipes.
