My bread maker has a whopping great paddle that makes a whopping great hole in the bottom of the loaf which is the reason why I prefer to make my bread by hand.
ah, I see you have the bread making machines too...I don't have one but they are very common here now. I like to do it the old way...all by hand...but not too often!

Yeah, we've got one at home, but we don't use it much
