Anyone still use a bread making machine?

That makes sense. Is the whey in dried form? I still can't understand what is providing the structure for the bread as whey is a liquid. I've made bread using whey in place of water before but not in place of flour.

Noooo, this is powder form! See pic below. People (like my kids) use it in powder form for drinks. And it comes in all sorts of flavors, like ice cream, e.g. strawberry chocolate, blueberry, etc. Just in vanilla there were about 5 different flavors- French vanilla, natural vanilla, vanilla, ice cream vanilla, vanilla bean, etc.

In reading more about it (I am new to it also) they say how it produces a lot creamier effect for baked goods than flour. I was truly impressed with the bread. I don't understand why more people don't use it, to be honest. Except it is expensive. After I made this loaf I knew I would be making more so I bought it in bulk. The recipe calls for both unflavored and vanilla and the 3 lb unflavored and 2.2 lb vanilla set me back about $70. That will make about 13 loaves (you can tell the loaves are pretty large), so it's about $5.50 per loaf plus the other stuff. So it probably comes out to around $7.50/loaf which, for me, isn't bad, since I can't eat regular bread too much and other low-carbs bread cost around $10 per small loaf.

Still, for someone used to buying flour I could understand that they get a bit of sticker shock.

Thank you. OK - now I understand. Here in the UK it is only sold a specialist 'sport's supplement' for building muscle and its incredibly expensive. Probably more expensive than in the US.
