I enjoyed this recipe. I used the whole wheat setting on my bread machine and increased the yeast to 2 teaspoons of active dry yeast because I did not have bread machine yeast. When it was kneading, I added a handful more of bread flour, because it did seem a little moist, but it turned out great. I used the setting for a 1 pound loaf.

Best whole wheat bread I ever made. Came out perfect the first time. I left out the coffee though.

I'm working my way through all of the bread machine recipes on this site in search of the best. I made this just as directed, except I used brewed coffee in place of the instant coffee and water. Turned out perfect with a moist dense texture and slightly sweet flavor. Great for ham sandwiches!

This was great bread! I made it according to the recipe, but began to worry because the dough did not rise like most do in my bread machine (I make bread several times a week). So I took it out after the first rise, and formed a loaf in a regular loaf pan, then let it rise in a warm spot for over an hour. Baked at 350 for about 30 minutes and it was perfect. This IS dense, but that was what I wanted! I could taste the coffee in it, though, it gave it a tiny bit of a bitter twang, so next time I will leave that out.

Honestly, I didn't think this really tasted like the bread they serve at steakhouses. It seemed like an ordinary wheat bread to me. But, it was really good none-the-less. This was only my second voyage into breadmaker recipes (usually I make it by hand, but my boyfriend's mother gave me a breadmaker a few weeks ago). It was very easy, and turned out great! It was not goopy or gloppy or whatever other reviewers said. I'm not sure what went wrong with their loaves, but mine was great!

It came out perfectly and everyone loved it. It has such a rich flavor and great texture. I set my machine for small/reg loaf and it worked just fine.

Ok, I tried this bread as posted yesterday and it never rose, it was just a lump that I threw in the trash. Today I made it again with a few changes, as suggested and it is wonderful. First of all, I cut back on the water by about 2 Tbs., and upped the honey by about 2 Tbs. and added 1 Tbs. molasses. Because I used salted butter, I left the salt out completely, since it reacts with the yeast. I also added 1 1/4 cups white and wheat flour so it wouldn't be so wet. The last thing I did was added 2 full tsps. yeast, room temp. We could hardly wait for it to cool just a bit, but when we did, we put butter and honey on it and is excellent!

Yummy. This was a lot like the bread at my favorite steakhouse! I don't keep coffee on hand and therefore diddn't use it and it was awesome.

This bread is absolutely delicious! I certainly did not have any problems with the recipe; I've made this numerous times now and it turns out fabulous every time. This is by far the most requested recipe in my household. I used fancy molasses instead of honey (I was out...) the last time I made this and it was even better!! Try it sometime - you won't be disappointed!

Okay, this recipe is a-ma-zing! I did add a little bit of molasses for flavor/color. Topped the bread with a simple honey butter. Wow!

This bread turned out great! It is best served warm with some butter, but can be used for sandwiches and stuff as well. I followed the recipe except I also used old coffee instead of coffee granules.

This is the perfect bread for ham sandwiches! Can't think of a better bread to pair with some good mustard! I always double this recipe to make a full loaf. The yeast always seem to be the confusing part to me--usually the recipe says one temperature/type, the yeast packet suggest a different water temperature and the bread machine suggests its own temp/type. In experimenting with this recipe, I've found that I get the best results when I follow the temp/type of yeast recommended by the bread machine. In this case, rapid rise bread machine yeast and *chilled* 40F water. I've played with this recipe a bit and found if I substitute some of the sugar for molasses, it gives the bread a very nice flavor. Adding a hit of cheap vanilla also had nice results. Some day, I want to try adding some instant oatmeal into the party as well. All and all, this bread is a regular for us and I'd be hard pressed to switch to a competing whole-wheat recipe!

I followed the directions exactly and made it in my bread machine. I got a goopy mess that didn't even think about rising. The dough tasted just ok and wasn't reminiscent of the steakhouse bread that I remember. A waste of good ingredients.

I was intrigued by the ingredients in this recipe. Cocoa and coffee? Well, those ingredients are spot-on! Tastes just like what you find at a steakhouse. I followed the recipe to a tee. It makes a smaller loaf of bread and I used the "small 1.0 lb." setting on my machine. Served with butter and honey. Delicious! Also really good as sandwich bread.

This is spectacular!! My bf loves this bread and the distinct flavor. The loaf is small so I do double it sometimes but the original recipe is good for a few days lunches. I make this over and over.
