Ballymaloe brown bread was The Ballymaloe House Hotel's version of Doris Grant's no-knead bread, introduced in her book "Your Daily Bread".
I've found that with all brown or wholemeal flour bread recipes, half a vitamin C tablet (ascorbic acid) crushed between two tablespoons (about 100 mg) and added to the flour, seems to prevent a heavy, poorly risen loaf. It has an effect on Glutathione (WIkipedia) which has an affect on the the elasticity of the dough.
It has a bitter-sweet toffee flavour, almost like a sweet malt bread.
This is my version which has additional rye flour and is adapted to suit a bread making machine.
Use menu 08 French (6 hour) on Panasonic SD-ZB2502 automatic breadmaker)

Notes
If you don't have a gluten free bake setting, look for a fairly short knead and rest time with a long bake time. I found with other settings, the bread would rise extremely well, but after being knocked down (by the breadmaker), it never managed to rise again properly. The failures make brilliant breadcrumbs though!
