In using your bread maker to make a plain white loaf....would It turn out if I replaced the water with beer?!
Answers: Just wonderring if It would turn out. Just wanting to give my bread a different taste.
Why not just drink the beer, and eat the bread? I know what you're thinking...you love beer, you love bread, so why not combine the two? Well, two different things are best left alone. I would instead try making a nice whole grain bread with your bread maker instead of beer-bread. HEre's my recipe:
-12 oz water
-1.25 tsp salt
-2 Tb Extra Virgin Olive Oil
-1/3 cup honey
-3 tsp vital wheat gluten
-1/4 cup sesame seeds
-1/4 cup flax seeds
-1/2 cup whole oats
-3 cups whole wheat flour
-2 teaspoons active dry yeast
Boom, it's delicious and extremely healthy. I love it. Goes well with a beer, too.
I'm sure it would possibly work, but taste like beer.
Hold on... Why are YOU using MY bread maker, lol.
The only thing that beer could do is affect the rising of the yeast...I would use the rapid cycle of your bread machine.
If you are using yeast, the alcohol in the beer may kill too many of the yeast prematurely.
Yes-I have done it. Didn't taste that great.
The beer might increase the effect of leaveners like baking powder or yeast.
But why not try it? What have you got to lose but a couple of hours of kneading and mixing and waiting for the bread to bake?
Tell us all about it!
no the beer would kill the yeast to quick if it did work it would only be a small mis shaped loaf
