Lots of books will reference the Kitchenaid in their recipes.
Try Bernard Clayton New Complete book of Breads---he gives directions for
mixer (but it is a Kitchenaid--I bet) and processor and by hand.
Also Nancy Silverton, Breads from La brea Bakery.
I think Clayton might be the most simple, but silverton will really hold
your hand the whole way through if you are not daunted by a 3-4 page recipe.
I wonder if your yeast was at fault.
Be sure to use the type yeast they are calling for if you follow the recipe
exactly.

I agree that the yeast seems to be the culprit. Did your dough rise at all
during the initial rest period, and before you placed the loaf in the oven?
