Trial and error. I bought a recipe book and kept trying until I found one I liked and has relatively consistent results. Thing is, even using the same recipe, sometimes you'll just get a bad one in the machine, for whatever reason. Probably inconsistencies in my measurements of salt/sugar/molasses and yeast.
My favorite recipe is an amalgam of several that I tried that uses 1.5 teaspoons of salt, 3 tablespoons of molasses, 1.5 tblsp of white sugar and 1.5 teaspoons of yeast.
And, I keep my yeast in a jar in the freezer.
