I've made many recipes from this site. I have learned that experience improves the bread. This recipe is one of the best 'wheat' recipes here. My tip for you is to not add all the wheat flour listed here at first. Instead after the dough has rested in the mixer with the water, honey, yeast, and bread flour turn it on, add the butter and salt. I add 1/2 cup of wheat bran and 1/2 cup of wheat germ. Now begin adding wheat flour until it comes together. Now change to the dough hook and on speed 1 (no higher) kneed for 5-7 mins. If the dough is just spinning on the hook you need a tablespoon of liquid. It is OK for dough to be somewhat stickey but it should not sink to the bottom of the bowl when the mixer is shut off. It should keep its shape.
