--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2       ts           Yeast
  1 1/3   c            Unbleached bread flour
  2       tb           Vital wheat gluten
  2       ts           Salt --
    1/2   ts           Ginger
  1       tb           Honey
  1       c            Water -- (i use bottled h20)
  2       c            Whole wheat bread flour
  2       tb           Buttermilk powder
  2       tb           Lecithin
                        germ
  2       tb           Olive oil
    1/2   c            Whole wheat s/d starter (you
    1/2                Margarine, room temp.

 I used the whole wheat starter and experimented with
 your whole wheat bread recipe in the DAK today. It
 turned out great. Basically, I just halved your recipe
 and added a few things. My DAK is a 3 cup flour model,
 is yours? If I'm using whole wheat or rye flour, I can
 add more flour because it doesn't rise as much.  Also,
 whenever I use whole wheat, etc. I add vital wheat
 gluten and lecithin to aid elasticity and to help it
 rise. This is what I put in the DAK and the order I
 used: Turn the light/dark setting to 12 o'clock and
 set the menu to Sweet Bread (the auto. one, not the
 manual one) Later, at the beeps, I added 3/4 c. pecans
 (didn't have walnuts on hand). I usually add large
 pieces since they are kind of cut up by the B/M while
 knead ing. We can keep experimenting with this....let
 me know if you try it and what you add or subtract.
 Have you ever added raisins, oatmeal or any kind of
 seeds? The B/M gives me the lazy way out, and I wanted
 to see what it would do in it.  Thanks so much for
 taking precious time to post the recipe. P.S. I have
 some of the beer s/d starter to give you when we get
 together, but the whole wheat starter is GREAT!.
