Joanna D.Joanna D.: This is a good yeast. I keep mine in a sealed coffee canister (the kind with a silicone seal) in the freezer and it lasts a long time. The active dry yeast is inert if dry and cold, so it does store well. Since this is a pound of yeast and we usually just use a couple of teaspoons per loaf, store it in the freezer sealed and it will keep for at least a year; I've gone five years but I don't recommend that AND you should "proof" the yeast before you use it, in other words, dissolve it in a bit of the warmish liquid and give it a tiny pinch of sugar and see that it puffs up before dumping into your bread mix. Since this is NOT the instant dissolve, rapid rise kind of yeast, I'd suggest proofing it before putting into a bread machine (if you are experienced) or if you are making bread by hand. I use my mixer to make bread, I just prefer that method and I find that dissolving this yeast and mixing in works extremely well.

If you make a lot of sweet doughs, you will notice they don't rise quickly. In that instance,getting some of the gold package yeast LeSaffre Saf-Instant Yeast, Gold, will do better. This yeast is customized to take the high sugar doughs that inhibit normal...
