What is a good bread mix for a newbie?

[CrystalBoo]

Yeah, I just assumed any would be ok to use Was just wondering if any particular brand was more popular/easy/successful than others.
I don't mind all the kneading etc., so maybe I'll just jump in and give any old one a try.

I use a Lauke mix for my breadmaker, I know it has intructions for handmaking on the packet. The big bag of wholemeal is quite nice and I make that for everyday. For special I make the Barossa sour dough rye.

Yep try the Lauke, it is a good 'strong' (ie more protein) flour which will give you a lovely textured bread.
