Pitching into a breadmaker

Has anyone pitched the dregs of a stubbie into a breadmaker with all the other ingredients there? Did it work?
Not that I need to justify home brewing, mind, just attempting to rack up the postive aspects ... in fact, trying it now.

And you thought that would work?
Try replacing 50 percent of the milk with flat beer. keep the Bakers yeast in the recipe otherwise it wont rise.

If you want to make bread from beer there are two ways you can go about it either use the dregs from a bottle to make a starter (or leaven) add flour and water to make a kind of paste and let it ferment then use two cups of this starter to 750g wholemeal flour and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Otherwise for an even better bread scoop out some of the dregs in the bottom of your fermenter after bottling or racking you beer and use that.
