Fleischmann's Instant Dry Yeast 1lb bag

Great product. Would buy again.

Great, fast acting yeast. I get much higher dough rises and fluffier texture than other brands.

First of all, mine was not vacuumed sealed when it arrived. Don’t know what effect that may have had. Seems to perform as an instant yeast should. I use it for baking gluten free bread and so I may give it a kick start by proofing it for a few minutes. Otherwise, it seemed to smell, taste and work fine. I’m no expert so that’s my takeaway. Got it for just over $5. Last time I checked the price had been raised by 50%. I guess they think we don’t notice or have been stupid enough to click on “subscribe and save”. I am still breathing, thank you. So I’ll search for a more reasonably priced product. Thank you very much. I’m sure they don’t like the plugged in customer, but I refuse to play these games on pricing. I’m not even sure it’s legal to price discriminate against a customer who buys the product. I mean, whatever happened to the concept of rewarding loyal customers or giving customers who repeatedly buy an item a discount. Instead, we are rewarded by a price gouge. I’d rather go without or buy from anther marketplace than be ripped off by a monopoly that is taking advantage of people especially during a health crisis like COVID. Oh and don’t even get me started on their support for BLM and the like. I’m sure my post will be censored or edited as hate speech but whoever thought we’d be punishing people for telling the truth in America.

I store some of it in my freezer and some in my fridge. This is a bargain come pared to all those little packages. If you do a!lot. of bread baking this is far cheaper to buy and use.most important the quality is great it performs time and time again if you find its a pan to measure out 2 1/4 teaspoons get the spoon on Amazon it does it for you its made just for us so we do not have to dirty 2 spoons to measure out the yeast. I keep it right in the jar with the yeast in my fridge

This product has so far satisfied my needs and does what it is supposed to do. I don't really know what to say since it's yeast :-). I've used this brand for a long time and I've never had a bad batch. I store it in the fridge in an air tight container as per the recommendations of others and this has not affected the quality of my baking in anyway. If you don't bake frequently I would say put some of it in the freezer until you're done with the first batch. The only thing I wish the package had was a resealable top.

I'll be honest here. I would much rather purchase the Platinum yeast in bulk, but I cannot find it. (shrug) This arrived tightly sealed. Once I opened it, I transferred to a zipper freezer bag, squished out as much air as I could and threw it in the freezer. My bread has risen every time without fail. This is so much more cost effective than buying those little packages or jars from the grocery store. I will absolutely re-order more when I run low.

Photo has a 1.5 lb pumpernickel on the left and a 2 lb potato bread on the right made in a bread machine on the basic cycle: about 3 hours total time, including 14 minutes kneading, 25 minutes rest, 14 minutes kneading, 39 minutes rise, punchdown, and 50 more minutes rise. Loaves rose as expected to the top of the pan. I bake bread about every 8 - 10 days, so I put 4 oz of yeast in a jar to be kept in the fridge, and prepare three 4-oz. vacuum sealed packages that go in the freezer for later use. I'll update this review when I start on one of the frozen packages.

Exactly as pictured and yeast was definitely good and active as I have made several loaves already

Lebadura no es la misma, y casi está al punto de caducar.

Excellent product, this is the only yeast I use for baking bread.

Works great for bread and bagels. Keep in fridge is a ziplock when not using

What always concerns me when I purchase perishables online are the best before dates and not being able to see them before purchase. I ordered this in July 2020 and bb date is May 2022, so quite decent. I have used this yeast in my bread machine to make cinnamon rolls and bread a couple of times, and so far so good (only used it 3 times so far). The quantity is more than I really need as I don't make bread that often so I am storing in the 'fridge in an air-tight container with a couple of packs of desiccant. I let the amount I use to come back to room temp (only takes a few mins) before adding and that worked well. Packaging-wise, I don't really like the foil packet as the seal was really close to the product so when you cut it open, it's hard to seal up again. There is no zipper and they don't leave you enough room at the top to fold flaps over properly. I prefer the glass jars from the supermarkets. Cost-wise, probably more than I am used to paying, but at the time of purchase, it was hard to find in grocery stores.

It's Fleishman's yeast so I don't think you can go wrong, it's a one pound package so it might outlast me especially if I put it into portioned containers and keep it in the fridge.
