My White-Westinghouse bread machine is *very* blind accessible. It has three buttons with just a few settings and after scanning the manual it is extremely easy to use. It resets to the default setting when it powers up, so some easy memorization of the few menu settings are enough to do whatever you want to do with it. It is, however, probably almost twenty years old. That said, bread machines are something most folks use a few times and forget, so if you have a Freecycle group in your area join it and ask for a bread machine and chances are good you'll get at least one response.

Yes, the bread machine is more than likely less messy. Most bread machines are not very "blind friendly" or accessible. Take someone with you that knows about baking bread because like I said the machines are not very accessible. You have to add ingredients in the order that the package of bread mix dictates or the bread machine owners' manual will address things like what to do and what order they specify.

However, again, not having done that before, I do have questions. I know people have mentioned that I need a bread machine. What kind do I need, and is that the only way to do it? Someone told me it could get somewhat messy if I'm not careful, which is why I'd want the machine. Also, do I need some kind of special mixer other than just my little electric mixer for mixing the dough? I'm totally willing to try but don't think I have the right tools. Thanks again.
