5 - 6 years ago I was doing a lot of home baking and read up on this quite a bit but never tried it.  There is quite a lot of info out there about no knead bread and by most accounts, it seems to work.  I actually quite enjoyed the kneading process and if I was feeling lazy I used the bread machine to do the mixing.  I don't use the machine to actually bake very often though.

Well I have a batch of dough gently rising in the kitchen. It's been there twelve hours already and will get baked in 12 hours time. What the video doesn't show, which was clarified in the accompanying article, is a counter rise of 2-3 hours after removing the dough from the container.

Im not sure if my oven will get hot enough though, as 500F is 260C and I think mine tops out at 220C.

This is interesting. It suggests it's the expansion caused by the action of the yeast which effectively kneads the bread

Any heavy casserole dish would do for baking this type of bread. IMO ;)
The amount of bread making Utube videos is amazing.

I make all kinds of fresh bread, love the automation/gadgetry of my bread machine.
Worst loaf I ever made was when I forgot to put the paddle back in the machine ;D  ;D ::)

I make a favourite Ciabatta with a very sloppy dough on a 1hr rapid bake. Spot on every time.

These machines are also great for knocking up Naan dough  ;)
cheers Chewy

That's how I do mine, and pizza dough and fresh pasta.

Chewy, would you share your ciabatta?

Thats the trouble I'm wanting to eat it before it's cooled down.
