Just be sure that you use water as hot as it comes out of the tap to activate it. **Q: Why price gouge at $55 / $60 when the regular cost is $10?** A: This is sold by Red Star and is $29 so I don’t think they’re price gouging. A 4oz jar is $5.99 at the grocery store. This is a 2lbs bag. **Q: Does this product contain Sorbitan Monostearate, or is it just the yeast?** A: I was concerned about that question too. My shipment arrived yesterday and it's just the yeast. **Q: Can this yeast be used for baking bread with a bread machine? Or do you have to use bread machine yeast?** A: I use this in a bread machine - but keep in mind that some bread machines are designed with shorter "rise" times and are designed for use with Instant Yeast which has a faster rise time. In this case, proof the yeast first (mix your warm liquid, sugar and yeast and let it get frothy - 5-15 min depending on temp of your ingredients) before using the machine. Since I dislike having holes in my bread, I use a bread machine to mix up my dough and take it OUT for the final rise (in my bread pan or braided or whatever the final product I'm looking for is). That lets you have the best of both worlds.... ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by T***P on April 5, 2026* SECOND BATCH, IT HAS PROVIDED EXCELLENT RISE IN MY BREAD.

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.
