1) Try leaving the loaf in for a while after it's finished baking. I haven't
tried it, but apparently that will keep some of the moisture inside.
2) Stupid question, but have you RTFM? My Breville breadmaker has a
crustiness selection setting. Three degrees of crustiness that are all quite
crusty.
3) Ditch the premix! The manual for my machine also has lots of bread recipes.
Admittedly, the only one I've tried is for pizza dough, but it was nice..
