 Excellent Instant Yeast Sep 23, 2009
By Katawampas
This is the most economical way to buy yeast even if you only bake with it 6 times in a year. Do the math comparing the cost of those little packets & you'll see what I mean.
This is an "Instant" or "Rapid Rise" yeast which should not be confused with "Active Dry". Active Dry is dried at a higher temperature & therefore more of the yeast cells are killed. If using AD, you need to soak/activate it in warm water before adding to dry ingredients. This is unnecessary with Instant yeast; add it directly to the flour. You also need to use more AD because more of the yeast cells are dead.
I store mine in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid in the refrigerator. I write the expiration date on a label stuck to the lid. It has always stayed active beyond the expiration date.
This is the yeast to use if you are using a bread machine. You can use AD yeast but it's more convenient to just dump all the ingredients in to a bread machine and let it do the work.
You can substitute Rapid Rise/Instant yeast in a recipe calling for Active Dry yeast. Use about 25% less Rapid Rise/Instant than the recipe calls for. Example: The Active Dry packets usually contain about 2-1/4 tsp./.25 oz. so use 1-3/4 tsp. Instant/rapid Rise yeast if the recipe calls for 1 packet (2-1/4 tsp.) Active Dry.
You can also substitute Active Dry for a recipe that calls for Instant/Rapid Rise. Use about 25% more Active Dry than the recipe calls for. Example: Use 1-1/4 tsp. Active Dry if the recipe calls for 1 tsp. Instant.
1 tsp. Active Dry = 3/4 tsp. Instant/Rapid Rise
1 tsp. Instant/Rapid Rise = 1 1/4 tsp. Active Dry
1 packet (2 1/4 tsp/.25 oz) Active Dry = 1 3/4 tsp. Instant/Rapid Rise

 Yeast Jun 19, 2009
By T. Methven
"sixty9harley"
I got tired of paying $2.99 for a strip of 3 little packs of instant yeast. This is how even a casual baker should buy their yeast. Shipping is high so buy more than one. The yeast comes in a heavy duty vacuum pack so the unopened yeast will have a very long shelf life. I have used it twice for pizza dough and Chiabatta bread and it works great.

Great value Oct 09, 2008

Works great in the bread machine. Great price. It stores well in the refrigerator. Much better buy than the 4oz jars.

good yeast Oct 23, 2011
By Melissa
I've been cooking with this yeast, which I store in a storage bag in the fridge, for over a year and it's still going strong. I bake much more now that I don't have to buy little packets of yeast every time I want to make bread or pizza dough, and I vastly prefer instant yeast to dry active. Just make sure to use 25% less instant yeast if you're using a recipe that calls for dry active yeast.

Amazing deal! Apr 22, 2011
By Bruno Soares
This pack of yeast is an amazing deal! It has one pound for the price of a few packets that you would buy at your local grocery store. The one I got had an expiration date sometime in 2013, so these are not leftovers or close to expire products. Keeping it refrigerated, preferably in an air tight container, will increase it's shelf life. Just a reminder that this is not active dry yeast, but instant yeast. If your recipe asks for active dry yeast, you should adjust the amount accordingly. I have used this yeast in more than four bread recipes, including pizzas, focaccias and ciabattas and the results were all fantastic! I highly recommend this Fleischmanns Instant Yeast. There is no better deal!
