For some reason the bread I try to make in a break maker is not rising enough. Actually, I made maybe twenty test breads and only one time did it rise enough. I don't recall doing anything different that time.
Is there a way to tell whether the yeast is too old, temperature is incorrect, or other reason by examining the bread?
The bread is simple:
1 cup bread flour 2 tbsp yeast 5 tbsp sugar 1 tbsp salt 1 egg some butter just enough water to make a dough ball (less than 1/4 cup)
I would guess that the yeast is too old James. I would run to the store and pick up some new yeast to see if that does the trick.
Did you use fast-acting (bread machine) yeast?

Where did you get that recipe? I don't think that there is any way it would make a loaf of bread.
Fleischman's never worked well for me. Now I buy what ever bulk yeast they have in the health section of the market or in those little see-through plastic containers.
Ummm... yeah that is a common problem... u can try ading in more water
