I am having fun trying to imagine a bread maker so bad that it takes
them actually 5 hours actual time to make bread. With a bread machine,
you spend 5 minutes of your time for a basic bread. If you take it out
in dough mode and bake it outside of the machine to rolls and such, add
10 minutes.

It was a given that rising time is needed. ANYONE who makes bread
knows that.

Contact time is less with a machine. Results are better than store
bread by far.
