A default binder has been requested, but there are no binders available for 'org.springframework.cloud.stream.messaging.DirectWithAttributesChannel'

I am trying to create the simplest as possible hello world with Spring Cloud + Kafka Streams + Spring Boot 2.

I realize I miss basic concepts. Basically, I understand that:

1 - I need to define an outbound stream to write messages to a Kafka topic, and an inbound stream to read messages from a Kafka topic

public interface LoansStreams {

    String INPUT = "loans-in";
    String OUTPUT = "loans-out";

    @Input(INPUT)
    SubscribableChannel inboundLoans();

    @Output(OUTPUT)
    MessageChannel outboundLoans();

}

2 - configure Spring Cloud Stream to bind to my streams

@EnableBinding(LoansStreams.class)
public class StreamsConfig {
}

3 - configure Kafka properties

spring:
  cloud:
    stream:
      kafka:
        binder:
          brokers: localhost:9092
      bindings:
        loans-in:
          destination: loans
          contentType: application/json
        loans-out:
          destination: loans
          contentType: application/json

4 - create model for exchange messages

@Getter @Setter @ToString @Builder
public class Loans {
    private long timestamp;
    private String result;
}

5 - write to Kafka

@Service
@Slf4j
public class LoansService {
    private final LoansStreams loansStreams;
    public LoansService(LoansStreams loansStreams) {
        this.loansStreams = loansStreams;
    }
    public void sendLoan(final Loans loans) {
        log.info("Sending loans {}", loans);
        MessageChannel messageChannel = loansStreams.outboundLoans();
        messageChannel.send(MessageBuilder
                .withPayload(loans)
                .setHeader(MessageHeaders.CONTENT_TYPE, MimeTypeUtils.APPLICATION_JSON)
                .build());
    }
}

6 - listen to Kafka topic

@Component
@Slf4j
public class LoansListener {

    @StreamListener(LoansStreams.INPUT)
    public void handleLoans(@Payload Loans loans) {
        log.info("Received results: {}", loans);

    }
}

I spent a whole day reading few blogs and I assume that the above code is at least workable. I amo not sure I realy coding the best aproach as possible. By the way, I get the error mentioned in the topic:

Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the conditions report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.
2019-04-26 18:33:05.619 ERROR 14784 --- [  restartedMain] o.s.boot.SpringApplication               : Application run failed

org.springframework.context.ApplicationContextException: Failed to start bean 'outputBindingLifecycle'; nested exception is java.lang.IllegalStateException: A default binder has been requested, but there are no binders available for 'org.springframework.cloud.stream.messaging.DirectWithAttributesChannel' : , and no default binder has been set.

Googling for solution, I found someone saying to code StreamListe returning the model so I replaced it with:

@StreamListener(LoansStreams.INPUT)
@SendTo("loans-out")
public KStream<?, Loans> process(KStream<?, Loans> l) {
    log.info("Received: {}", l);
    return l;
}

and then I get an error even less clear at least to me (previous error clearly mentioned some binder issue):

Error starting ApplicationContext. To display the conditions report re-run your application with 'debug' enabled.
2019-04-26 19:01:06.016 ERROR 13276 --- [  restartedMain] o.s.boot.SpringApplication               : Application run failed

In case it helps somehow, I want to evoluate this idea to apply SAGAS but it is not the focus of this question. Firstly, I need get the basic up and running.
