I use 1g of yeast for every 100g of flour. I weigh everything in the baking tin for my bread machine, even the water (working on 1ml is 1g).

100g of yeast for 99p is amazing value for this quality (allinsons at tesco in a green tin).

Basically a penny a gram or 5p per loaf. The flour costs me about 20p per loaf. I reckon all in all the whole lot including sugar, butter and a pinch of salt including a little bit of electric the whole lot must be somewhere between 30p and 35p a loaf.

By the way I got my Mom one of those cheapo £40 machines from Lidls. Two paddle job, took a bit of work getting the paddles out but then she changed her method.

Now when she hears the beeps to add stuff she turns it off at the wall, takes out the dough, removes the paddles and throws the dough back in. Works great although it misses a very small turn of the dough I noticed. But thats not really a bad thing as the longer tin that the double paddle machines have could do with the extra time to let the dough spread evenly. Personally I think that last turn of the dough is a hinderence if you are making normal bread without fruit/nuts/seeds ect.

So if you get one of those £40 machines from lidl, then you have a bargain but follow that tip on removing the paddles at the beeps if you don't want a paddle battle on your hands at the end.

In fact, I would seriously consider swapping her machine for my £120 panasonic as I quite like the loaf shape hers makes and the bread is just as good.
