Kelly: As a newbie in the world of baking, I have fallen in love with the RED STAR Active Dry Yeast in the 908g package. Not only does it make my bread taste amazing, but the quantity it offers at such a great value is perfect for someone like me who is just starting out.
One of the things I appreciate most about this yeast is how easy it is to use. As a beginner, I was worried about getting the measurements right and making sure the yeast would activate properly. However, with this yeast, I have had no issues. The granules are simple to measure and dissolve quickly in warm water, giving my bread the perfect rise every time.
The 908g package size is ideal for me as a newbie baker. It gives me plenty of yeast to experiment with different recipes without having to worry about running out. This means I can practice my baking skills and try out new bread creations without the stress of constantly needing to buy more yeast.
With this yeast, I can confidently embark on my baking journey and create delicious homemade bread that will impress my friends and family.
Please remember to store the yeast properly (I store it in my fridge) and follow the instructions...

Glen: Great quality yeast at a really cheap price.
If you buy this from Amazon you get 2 lbs of yeast for about the same price as 8 oz of yeast in those strips you buy at the supermarket. I just tossed the whole two-pound package into a zip-lock bag and keep it in my refrigerator.
Make SURE you understand the difference between the different types of yeast (which can be confusing!) This product is ACTIVE YEAST. Here's some great info from the amazing folks at Cooks Illustrated:
Active dry yeasts arrive at their granular state by undergoing processes that reduce them to 95 percent dry matter. Traditional active dry yeast is exposed to heat so high that many of its cells are destroyed in the process. Because the spent outer cells encapsulate living centers, active dry yeast must first be dissolved in a relatively hot liquid (proofed) to slough off dead cells and reach the living centers.
Substitution Formulas
To substitute active dry for instant (or rapid rise) yeast: Use 25 percent more active dry. For example, if the recipe calls for 1 teaspoon of instant yeast, use 1 1/4 teaspoons of active dry. And don't forget to "prove" the yeast, i.e. dissolving...

Laynae: Several people have commented on how well this yeast works as well as how economical it is so I won't be repetitive, I'll just wholeheartedly agree. The only thing I'm doing different is I'm freezing all of it and taking it out when I'm ready to bake. However, this is not the reason I purchased the yeast in the first place.
I have never had any problems with yeast bread until I recently started making my own bread. I had used a machine years ago with no adverse effect from the Fleischmann's yeast. When I decided to start making bread again, I wanted to challenge myself and try to do the kneading and the whole nine yards without the use of any machines, well except my mill, not into rock pounding grains:). Besides, it might prove to be a necessity someday. My problem was, no matter what bread I made, even very sweet cinnamon rolls or how well the bread came out, the smell of the yeast overwhelmed me and made me ill so much so that I couldn't even stand the smell of my house let alone stomach the bread. I would also taste the yeast for many hours later if I ate any of it. I could only surmise that I had developed some sort of allergy to it. I was pretty much beside myself, one...
