So far, so good!
I make a lot of different styles of homemade bread. For my standard "house bread" as I call it...my goal is to get as close as I can to the cheap, squishy, store bought loaves (like wonder bread or whatever). I read about this stuff and decided to give it a try using my standard recipe. I didn't change anything other than to add about a 1/2 tsp. of this stuff (bag recommends 1/4 tsp. per cup of flour and my recipe uses a little over two cups of flour). And wow, what a difference it made! To start...the dough came out quite a bit stickier than it normally does. Not terrible, I was still able to manage it fine, but stickier. This dough conditioner also seemed to slow down the rise somewhat...I normally do a second rise of 40 minutes...this time it probably needed closer to 55 minutes. So again...not a huge difference but a difference all the same. But wow! When the bread was finally done, I knew that this was the ingredient that I had been missing! Gone was the tougher crust that homemade bread usually has...instead I had that nice, soft and squishy crust of a store bought loaf. Same goes for the interior. So far, I've only used it with this one recipe but I've been very happy with the overall texture every time!

Doesn’t work
Unfortunately you can’t return. I tried using this quite a few times and my breads were a waste. I was using the King Author and it works beautifully. I thought most were the same but clearly no. I’m just upset from all the wasted ingredients that I had to throw away.

This is the best dough conditioner out there. Very friendly people helped with measurements over phone. Great people!

Be carful with your measurements . I suggest using less at first .
First time was a disaster , I used 1/2 as much as the instructions for a better result.

Doesn’t help with wheat bread recipes 👎🏼
Tried using multiple times, my KAF everyday bread recipe comes out better WITHOUT this, I would not recommend it, it makes my loaves dense and partially risen despite the 2hr rise time,

Destroyed my gluten
Did not work well, literally would not let the gluten in my dough develop.
