In a large bowl, mix together 4 cups flour, 1 ½ tbsp yeast, and 2 tbsp sugar.
In a second large bowl, pour 4 cups of milk and 2 tbsp butter.
Put the butter/milk in the microwave and warm in 45-second intervals until the butter has melted.
Stir together.
Pour the milk and butter mixture into the flour mixture.
Mix well.
Add 1 cup of bread flour at a time, mixing between each.
Knead the bread for 8-10 minutes until nice and elastic.
Spread a small amount of oil in a bowl and put the dough in the bowl.
Cover and let rise for about an hour or until it has doubled.
Punch down the dough, and divide into 3 loaf pans.
Cover and let rise again, for about an hour.
Bake at 375 for 35 minutes until golden brown.
The bread will sound hollow when it is done.
