Do I need a new bread machine?

Hi everyone,

First post here... started gluten-free diet about a month ago (38 yrs old just diagnosed).

I purchased a bread machine a few weeks ago and used it a few times before discovering I was celiac.  Is it enough to give the machine a thorough wash or do I need to buy a new one?  

Thanks.

What if you just make a loaf or two of gluten-free bread and that ought to clean out any remaining crumbs?

Perhaps get a new bread basket for it...I would be concerned of gluten down int the bottom paddle or if any scratches. Check for parts?
I personally do quick bread that do not require the rise cycling with a machine and just mix and oven in a bread pan....my bakery has always done these.

I had a bread machine years ago.  It was nice to have bread ready to go in the morning.  Later, I tossed it.   I like kneading bread.  It was relaxing and gave me a good work out.  Gluten free yeast bread does not require kneading.  Just time to rise.  An electric mixer or your arm can handle the initial mixing.  Let it rise and then bake!  

My machine was well used.  I do not think I could have salvaged it .

      That sounds very hernia inducing work! You confirm what I have suspected, I get pain just to the right of the umbilical hernia, I am sure there is a connection.  If do see my gastroenterologist I'll mention it again.   I can't help thinking I've also got an issue in my groin, perhaps a hernia threatening, I guess an ultrasound would be needed to confirm it.

      For the Inguinal hernia I could definitely feel it, and it came with an obvious bulge that appeared soon after doing a project where I was drilling holes on concrete using a very old school regular hand drill with mason bit, instead of a hammer drill with mason bit--this left me squatting over the drill putting my weight on it for several hours (the hammer drill would not have required this level of stress, nor the time it took). Bad idea--learn from my mistake in being "lazy" and not renting (or buying) the proper tool for the job. My umbilical hernia was around for many years, and I didn't feel that one at all, so never worried about it. My doctor basically recommended doing both in one surgery, which seemed like wise move.  As far as the possible IBS connection to either, it was definitely apparent after getting the Inguinal hernia, which is why I asked my doctor about that, but after getting both fixed I realize that the umbilical hernia likely also had mild IBS effects over the years.

      @Scott Adams  Strange question but can you actually feel your hernia?  I have so many abdominal lumps and bumps of longstanding (my GP said it's fat!) that I sometimes wonder if an inguinal hernia could be missed.  I am quite sure some of my pain is from my umbilical hernia but that first came about courtesy of my second pregnancy.

      Thanks for sharing this! I've always wanted to go to Ireland, and we did include Ireland in a recent top travel destinations article, so it's nice to know that we got that right:
