We received a free bread machine, courtesy of some friends that don't use theirs anymore. The bread is coming out well as far as consistency, but there's not a lot of flavor. I've tried a basic wheat and last night a small white brioche. Maybe I'll try an Italian loaf next? Do you have any bread machine tips? I'm hoping to make bread for thanksgiving, but want to nail it down beforehand to make sure that we get a good loaf out of it.

Don't be afraid to add seeds, oats, or even flaxseed to the bread machine. You can substitute a few things for the flour - for instance, Trader Joe's has an Almond Flour that you can substitute in for flour up to a certain amount. Plus, there's artisanal whole-grain flours that you can get from Whole Foods and hippie co-op type places. :)

Also, "dough enhancers" have been used for ages to just give bread that certain yum factor. You can try a starter, or you can add-in something. Here's an article:
