I've been there, too. It's been a long process, but I'm finally to the point where my bread making is pretty consistent. Don't give up! Homemade bread is definitely worth the investment of time and patience, in my opinion. Your hammer picture is great! I’ve been there, too.

Even with the brick loaf, you are already one step ahead of me. :) I’m sure you’ll be able to make nice, soft whole wheat bread soon.

I don't have a breadmaker and am too lazy to wait for it to rise & punch and do again. I end up buying Earthgrains 100% whole wheat- the ingredients are pretty simple. We don't have a local bakery that makes anything close or I may go that route too! I’m sorry your bricks weren’t edible!

(what was the recipe you used?) I make bread at home all the time, even organic bread and it never comes out "brick like". Though, most "recipes" don't tell you the proper way to mix bread. They tell you to add the salt with the rest of teh flour. SALT IS A YEAST KILLER!! You add salt in the VERY last stage of mixing... Send me the recipe and I'd be happy to help!!
