Breadmaker Machine Question

Hi - I would like to get a breadmaker. If it's used to make gluten free bread, I'm assuming it CANNOT be used to make gluten containing bread. Would this be right? Thanks!

I have a related question--sort of the reverse--Can a bread machine that has been used for wheat bread not more than about 6 times be used for gluten-free breads? Momandgirls--sorry I didn't have an answer for you--I think one answer will work for both of us :D

IMO:

I would say NO do not use it to ever make gluten bread, your playing russian rolluletet with 5 bullets in the gun if you do.

And for NJGirl... yes you could, IF you can get it completely clean, every crumb, every spec of flour/etc.

:D hi everyone...im new at all of this and so far ive noticed that this forum is really going to help!!!

i recently bought a bread machine that has recipies and a gluten free setting, but have yet to find a recipe that tastes good. i think that i have a intollerance to rice flour and all the recipies call for it...does anyone have a recipie for bread machines that dont use rice flour??? and that also taste good??? also i was told that if i want to make bread containing gluten for the rest of the family that i could buy another basked and paddle...is this info correct???

Welcome MamaBear! I'm pretty new here, too, and you're right, this forum provides a wealth of information!

i think that i have a intollerance to rice flour and all the recipies call for it...does anyone have a recipie for bread machines that dont use rice flour??? and that also taste good???

Just a suggestion, but you may want to post that question in a topic of its own rather than under the heading "Bread Machine Question." There are lots of great cooks here, and if they see that question, I bet you get some great help.

If you have a separate basket and paddles could you make gluten bread??? Hmmm, you'll probably get different views on that. I would say no, but then I don't have any gluten in my house; home is the one place that is always safe. (It's just me and my very supportive husband. A gluten-free household may not work for some families) Cross-contamination is a problem for a lot of (all-??) Celiacs. As a bread machine mixes, the flour would have to get "tossed" up inside the lid and above the basket, etc. I personally wouldn't risk it, but that's me.

Mammabear - you may want to try Anna's bread mixes. Their mixes make great gluten-free bread. I make it all the time in my bread machine. I just checked their website, and they do have a mix that is rice-free. Open Original Shared Link

It takes awhile, but eventually you can perfect your recipes. After about four tries, I nailed bread in the machine. I have a Black and Decker.

They just came out with a Cuisinart one, that acutally has a gluten free setting.

I recently purchased the new Cuisinart Bread Machine. It has a special setting for "Gluten Free" as well as "Low Carb". I made one of the recipes and the bread weighs about 12 lbs. Tastes like a brick. I think I forgot to warm the milk before putting it in. Otherwise, it has a nice recipe book, but it asks for many different flours and a lot of cornstarch (which I could taste). What's the secret for making gluten-free bread??? ;)

I have this machine. I use the bob's red mill most Wonderful sandwhich bread mix or the gluten free Pantry favorite sandwhich bread mix, It takes alot of other flours to make other bread and All you add the each mix is oil, eggs, vinger and milk, it is great bread to I can give it lots of praise! the mix cost about 5 dollars but by the time you buy the other flours and the convience of the mix I think it is worth it!

Mammabear,

Breads by Anna are great and easy in the bread machine. I do put my yeast in warm water first. This just works better and the bread is lighter, etc. I don't believe this is the way it says to do it.

Gluten free Pantry mix is great too.

I have never made bread from scratch in my bread machine. THe mixes work great for me and don't take up as much room.

I don't know if I would use a bread machine that has been used for gluten containing breads. ONly reason I say that is my bread machine has some little cracks that I can't get clean and there is very small amount of bread remains in there and the little mixer piece is hard to get really clean. I guess if you dishwashed them it might get them 100% clean and if it hadn't been used for a very long time for gluten containing breads.

      He is. Which makes everything even more difficult. I’m not a believer in “staying for the kids” but I have nowhere to go and it’s not just me, it’s me plus my babies. We live in a beautiful place, lots of land in the country and me and the kids love the place we’ve called home for their entire lives. But Im seeing that he’ll never change, that my kids deserve a happy healthy Momma, and that staying in this as is will be the early death of me. Then I look at the scars covering my entire body…this disease and the chronic stress I’ve been enduring for years that tell me I’m no longer beautiful and no one will ever look at me with interest again. I try self care, try to give myself grace so I can just start loving myself enough to gain strength but the slightest sparkle in my eye and skip in my step attracts his wrath and it all comes crashing ten fold. Life is just absolutely railing me from every single direction leaving me wanting to wave that white flag bc I don’t feel like there’s much hope no matter what happens.

      Hi, I was recently diagnosed with Celiac and dermatitis herpetiformis after years of suffering without answers. I lost my mind. I lost my job. I lost so much time. I lost Me. Conventional doctors are opulent come near me and the one who did sat across the room, misdiagnosed me, pumped me full of steroids which collapsed my entire hip for 6 months. So without answers I began my holistic journey. Fast forward a couple of years and still struggling with a mysterious whole body itchy, crawling “skin hell”, perfect teeth now deteriorating, thick hair now thinning rapidly and no more than a day or 2 at most relief….An acquaintance opened up a functional medicine practice. Cash only, I found a way. Within a month tests clearly showing my off the charts gluten allergy/sensitivity as well as the depletion of vital nutrients due to leaky gut and intestinal damage. dermatitis herpetiformis was more than likely what I was experiencing with my skin. I was happy. I thought this is easy, eat healthy Whole Foods, follow the diet restrictions and I finally get to heal and feel confident and like myself again very soon! 😔 Supplements are very pricey but I got them and began my healing. Which leads to the other major issue: not working, stay at home Mom of young kids, entirely financially dependent on my man of 7 plus years. He’s never been supportive of anything I’ve ever done or been thru. He controls everything. I’m not given much money ever at a time and when he does leave money it’s only enough to possibly get gas. His excuse is that I’ll spend it on other things. So my “allowance” is inconsistent and has conditions. He withholds money from me as punishment for anything he wants. Since being diagnosed, he’s gained a new control tactic to use as punishment. He now is in control of when I get to eat. He asked for proof of my diagnosis and diet bc he said I made it up just to be able to eat expensive organic foods. Then after I sent him my file from my doctor he then said she wasn’t a real doctor. 😡. I go days upon days starving, sometimes breaking down and eating things I shouldn’t bc I’m so sick then I pay horribly while he gets annoyed and angry bc I’m not keeping up with all the duties I’m supposed to be doing. His abuse turns full on when I’m down and it’s in these desperate times when I need his support and care the most that I’m punished with silence, being starved, ignored, belittled. He will create more of a mess just bc I’m unable to get up and clean so that when I am better, I’m so overwhelmed with chores to catch up that the stress causes me to go right back into a flare from hell and the cycle repeats. I’m punished for being sick. I’m belittled for starving and asking for healthy clean water. I’m purposely left out of his life. He won’t even tell me he’s going to the grocery or to get dinner bc he doesn’t want me to ask him for anything. I have no one. I have nothing. Im not better. My supplements ran out and I desperately need Vitamin D3 and a methylated B complex at the very minimal just to function….he stares at me blankly…no, a slight smirk, no words. He’s happiest when im miserable and I am miserable.  this is so long and im condensing as much as I can but this situation is so complicated and disgusting. And it’s currently my life. The “IT” girl, the healthy, beautiful, perfect skin, perfect teeth, thick and curly locks for days, creative and talented IT girl….now I won’t even leave this house bc Im ashamed of what this has dont to my body, my skin. Im disgusted. The stress is keeping me from healing and I think he knows that and that’s why he continues to keep me in that state. He doesn’t want me confident or successful. He doesn’t want me healed and healthy bc then how would he put the blame of all his problems on me? This journey has been hell and I’ve been in Hell before. I’ve been killed by an ex, I’ve been raped, robbed, held hostage, abused beyond nightmares but the cruelty I’ve experienced from him bc of this disease is the coldest I’ve ever experienced. I’ve wanted to give up. Starving and in tears, desperate…I found a local food pantry in our small town so I reached out just saying I had Celiac and was on hard times. This woman is blessing me daily with prepared gluten free meals, donations, educational info, people who know this disease and how they manage life and the blessings just keep coming. But it’s overwhelming and I feel like I don’t deserve it at all. He just glared and I know he’s going to sabotage it somehow. I don’t even know what to do anymore. I’m so broken and just want peace and healing.

      @Colleen H   I am just curious,  when you were tested for coeliac disease, did the doctors find out if you had any deficiencies? Sometimes muscle pain can be caused by certain deficiencies, for example, magnesium, vitamin D, calcium, and potassium.   Might be worth looking into having some more tests.  Pins and needles can be neuropathy, again caused by deficiencies, such as iron and B12,  which can be reversed if these deficiencies are addressed. In the UK where I live we are usually only tested for iron, B12 and vitamin D deficiencies at diagnosis.   I was very iron anemic and supplementation made a big difference.  B12 was low normal, but in other countries the UK's low normal would be considered a deficiency.  My vitamin D was low normal, and I've been supplementing ever since (when I remember to take it!) My pins and needles definitely started to improve when my known deficiencies were addressed.  My nutritionist also gave me a broad spectrum supplement which really helped, because I suspect I wasn't just deficient in what I mention above but in many other vitamins and minerals.  But a word of warning, don't take iron unless blood tests reveal you actually need it, and if you are taking it your levels must be regularly monitored because too much can make you ill.  (And if you are currently taking iron, that might actually be making your stomach sore - it did mine, so my GP changed my iron supplementation to a gentler form, ferrous gluconate). Lastly, have you been trying to take anything to lessen the pain in your gut?  I get a sore stomach periodically, usually when I've had too much rich food, or when I have had to take an aspirin or certain antibiotics, or after glutening.  When this happens, I take for just a few days a small daily dose of OTC omeprazole.  I also follow a reflux or gastritis diet. There are lots online but the common denominators to these diets is you need to cut out caffeine, alcohol, rich, spicy, acidic food etc and eat small regularly spaced meals.   When I get a sore stomach, I also find it helpful to drink lots of water.  I also find hot water with a few slices of ginger very soothing to sip, or camomile tea.  A wedge pillow at night is good for reflux. Also,  best not to eat a meal 2-3 hours before going to bed. If the stomach pain is getting worse, though, it would be wise to see the doctor again. I hope some of this helps. Cristiana

      I was diagnosed with coeliac disease a couple of years ago [ish]. I love my food and a variety of food, so it's been hard, as it is with everyone. I try and ensure everything I eat doesn't contain gluten, but occasionally I think something must have got through that has gluten in. Mainly I know because I have to dash to the loo, but recently I have noticed that I feel nauseous after possibly being glutened. I think the thing that I have got better at is knowing what to do when I feel wiped out after a gluten 'episode'. I drink loads of water, and have just started drinking peppermint tea. I also have rehydration powders to drink. I don't feel like eating much, but eventually feel like I need to eat. Gluten free flapjacks, or gluten free cereal, or a small gluten free kids meal are my go to. I am retired, so luckily I can rest, sometimes even going to bed when nothing else works. So I feel that I am getting better at knowing how to try and get back on track. I am also trying to stick to a simpler menu and eat mostly at home so that I can be more confident about what I am eating. THANKS TO THOSE WHO REPLIED ABOUT THE NAUSEA .
