Machine noise

I love my bread machine, but I have to say that when it kneads the dough, it makes a racket like a skeleton orgy on a tin roof.

(OK, so it's not that bad, but was I gonna not use that line? I don't think so.)

unless you're starting to enjoy that sound, you might try a little olive oil on the *paddle post* (thingy-ma-jiggy that the paddle is pivoting from). Or...it could be that the paddle is getting tired and needs to be replaced...because they tend to loosen up, after awhile. The other thing might be that the belt might need replacing.

Thanks.

It's pretty new. I'm guessing it does not really make more noise than can be justified by the lump of dough being whipped about inside it.

Dude, I am SO stealing that orgy bit! Line, hook and sinker. :-D

The idea of a lump of dough being whipped makes me go a big rubbery one.
